Repetitive Strain Injury is an illness which can occur as a result of
working with a mouse and keyboard. This utility can be used to remind
you to take a break now and then. It will show you a random picture
from a collection you can configure yourself for a configurable duration
at a configurable interval.
You can use these breaks to do some stretch exercises for example, or as
a reminder to walk away from the computer for a while.
RSIBreak will sit in your system tray and when it is time for a break it
will show you the picture full screen. All timings can be set by clicking
with the right mouse button on the icon in the system tray.
The RPM Package Manager is a powerful command line driven package
management system capable of installing, uninstalling, verifying,
querying, and updating computer software packages. Each software
package consists of an archive of files along with information about
the package like its version, a description, and the like. There
is also a related API ("Application Program Interface"), permitting
advanced developers to bypass 'shelling out' to a command line, and
to manage such transactions from within a native coding language.
The Analysis & Resynthesis Sound Spectrograph (formerly known as the Analysis &
Reconstruction Sound Engine), or ARSS, is a program that analyses a sound file
into a spectrogram and is able to synthesise this spectrogram, or any other
user-created image, back into a sound.
ARSS is now superseded by Photosounder, which makes use of most of the
techniques offered by ARSS in a simple to use and powerful graphical user
interface and built in editor.
from the NetBSD maintainer:
This voice provides an American English male voice using a residual
excited LPC diphone synthesis method. It uses the CMU Lexicon
pronunciations. Prosodic phrasing is provided by a statistically
trained model using part of speech and local distribution of breaks.
Intonation is provided by a CART tree predicting ToBI accents and
an F0 contour generated from a model trained from natural speech.
The duration model is also trained from data using a CART tree.

Many audio synthesis and recording packages are in use or in
development. These work in many different ways. LADSPA
provides a standard way for `plugin' audio processors to be used with
a wide range of these packages.
For instance, this allows a developer to make a reverb program and
bundle it into a LADSPA `plugin library.' Ordinary users can then use
this reverb within any LADSPA-friendly audio application.
PulseAudio, previously known as Polypaudio, is a sound server for POSIX and
Win32 systems. A sound server is basically a proxy for your sound applications.
It allows you to do advanced operations on your sound data as it passes between
your application and your hardware. Things like transferring the audio to a
different machine, changing the sample format or channel count and mixing
several sounds into one are easily achieved using a sound server.
Jellyfish is a tool for fast, memory-efficient counting of k-mers in DNA.
A k-mer is a substring of length k, and counting the occurrences of all such
substrings is a central step in many analyses of DNA sequence. JELLYFISH can
count k-mers quickly by using an efficient encoding of a hash table and by
exploiting the "compare-and-swap" CPU instruction to increase parallelism.
汉字转换器,可以在国标码(GB)和大五码(BIG-5)之间转换。
这个程序转换一个国标码(GB)文件为一个大五码(BIG-5)文件,或者一个大五码(BIG-5)文件为一个
国标码(GB)文件。GB(国标)是指中国大陆的“GB2312-80”的标准实现,用两个字节代表一个 GB 码,
重要位设置为1。BIG-5是指1984年由台湾信息产业研究所公布的大五码标准。

While preparing for a release 4.2 of the sdr-j software package,
we created two new programs
a DAB receiver
a broad spectrum version of the FM receiver
It is quite obvious that one can use a DAB stick to receive DAB
programs. However, the DAB software presented here is a real SDR
in that it uses the 8 bit I/Q samples of the DAB stick.
