Fifteen is a faux bitmap font. This font is designed to be used as a monotype font for use in a terminal, or at a larger size, to look like an over scaled bitmap. It works well in a 132 column terminal window. It is, of course, monospaced and has clearly distinct 1I and l, and the zero is slashed. Quinze is a narrow monospaced font, for programming and terminal emulators. It is designed to be narrow, and allow 132 columns to be comfortably fitted on a screen The 1, l and I are clearly distinguished, as are O and 0. The ascii circumflex is presented as an arrow, consistent with its use as exponentiation operator.

sakura is a terminal emulator based on GTK and VTE. It's a terminal emulator with few dependencies, so you don't need a full GNOME desktop installed to have a decent terminal emulator. Current terminal emulators based on VTE are gnome-terminal, XFCE Terminal, TermIt and a small sample program included in the vte sources. Sakura differences from the last one is that it uses a notebook to provide several terminals in one window and adds a contextual menu with some basic options. No more no less.

SAOimage (pronounced S-A-0-image) displays astronomical images in the X11 window environment. It was written by Mike Van Hilst while he was at the Smithsonian Astrophysical Observatory (SAO) in 1990 and is now maintained by Doug Mink also at the SAO. Online help and documentation are on the webpage. Image files can be read directly, or image data may be passed through a named pipe (Unix) or a mailbox (VMS) from IRAF display tasks. SAOimage provides a large selection of options for zooming, panning, scaling, coloring, pixel readback, display blinking, and region specification. User interactions are generally performed with the mouse, but keyboard alternatives are often available. The SAOimage desktop includes, a main image display window, a button menu panel, a display magnifier, a pan and zoom reference image, and a color bar. A color table graph window can be brought up by clicking on the color bar.

constant::defer creates a subroutine which on the first call runs given code to calculate its value, and on any subsequent calls just returns that value, like a constant. The value code is discarded once run, allowing it to be garbage collected. Deferring a calculation is good if it might take a lot of work or produce a big result but is only needed sometimes or only well into a program run. If it's never needed then the value code never runs. A deferred constant is generally not inlined or folded (see "Constant Folding" in perlop) since it's not a single scalar value. In the current implementation a deferred constant becomes a plain constant after the first use, so may inline etc in code compiled after that (see "IMPLEMENTATION" below).

A Net::Proxy object represents a proxy that accepts connections and then relays the data transfered between the source and the destination. The goal of this module is to abstract the different methods used to connect from the proxy to the destination. A proxy is a program that transfer data across a network boundary between a client and a server. Net::Proxy introduces the concept of "connectors" (implemented as Net::Proxy::Connector subclasses), which abstract the server part (connected to the client) and the client part (connected to the server) of the proxy. This architecture makes it easy to implement specific techniques to cross a given network boundary, possibly by using a proxy on one side of the network fence, and a reverse-proxy on the other side of the fence.

This module provides an implementation of OpenURLs encoded as URIs (Key/Encoded-Value (KEV) Format), this forms only a part of the OpenURL spec. It does not check that OpenURLs constructed are sane according to the OpenURL specification (to a large extent sanity will depend on the community of use). From the implementation guidelines: The description of a referenced resource, and the descriptions of the associated resources that comprise the context of the reference, bundled together are called a ContextObject. It is a ContextObject that is transported when a user makes a request by clicking a link. A KEV OpenURL may contain only one ContextObject. The ContextObject may contain up to six Entities. One of these, the Referent, conveys information about the referenced item. It must always be included in a ContextObject. The other five entities - ReferringEntity, Requester, Resolver, ServiceType and Referrer - hold information about the context of the reference and are optional.

This is a collection of the Unix tools that nobody thought to write long ago, when Unix was young. Currently it consists of these tools: - chronic: runs a command quietly unless it fails - combine: combine the lines in two files using boolean operations - errno: look up errno names and descriptions - ifdata: get network interface info without parsing ifconfig output - ifne: run a command if the standard input is not empty - isutf8: check if a file or standard input is utf-8 - lckdo: execute a program with a lock held (deprecated) - mispipe: pipe two commands, returning the exit status of the first - parallel: run multiple jobs at once - pee: tee standard input to pipes - sponge: soak up standard input and write to a file - ts: timestamp standard input - vidir: edit a directory in your text editor - vipe: insert a text editor into a pipe - zrun: automatically uncompress arguments to command Note that parallel and ts utilities are installed with "moreutils-" prefix.

This is a keyboard for input of the standardized Yi script of southwestern China with Unicode Yi fonts. It is written in Keyman keyboard language and developed by SIL Non-Roman Script Initiative (NRSI). This port installs the keyboard so that it can be used through SCIM or IBus KMFL IMEngine (textproc/scim-kmfl-imengine, textproc/ibus-kmfl). To keyboard a Yi syllable, you should type the Pinyin romanization for that syllable, followed by a space. For keyboarding punctuation, use the usual punctuation keystrokes. The keyboard is compatible with Yi range as defined in Unicode 3.0 and it does not provide keystrokes for the Yi Radicals which were added to Unicode 3.2 (U+A4A2..U+A4A3, U+A4B4, U+A4C1, U+A4C5).

XML::RSS::Parser is a lightweight liberal parser of RSS feeds. This parser is "liberal" in that it does not demand compliance of a specific RSS version and will attempt to gracefully handle tags it does not expect or understand. The parser's only requirements is that the file is well-formed XML and remotely resembles RSS. Roughly speaking, well formed XML with a channel element as a direct sibling or the root tag and item elements etc. There are a number of advantages to using this module then just using a standard parser-tree combination. There are a number of different RSS formats in use today. In very subtle ways these formats are not entirely compatible from one to another. XML::RSS::Parser makes a couple assumptions to "normalize" the parse tree into a more consistent form. For instance, it forces channel and item into a parent-child relationship.

xxdiff is a computer program that allows a user (usually a software developer of some sort) to easily visualize the differences between files. The manner and goal for which this process is applied over multiple files is highly dependent on the application, and most of the time is driven by custom user scripts. For example, a configuration management engineer in a company might provide some kind of merge policing environment, that allows software developers to review changes in files for the purpose of accepting or rejecting a submitted changeset to a codebase. Another example is that of a developer wishing to review the changes he made to a checkout of files from a source-code management system such as CVS, Subversion, ClearCase, Perforce, etc.
