PEAR::File_Fstab is an easy-to-use package which can read & write UNIX fstab
files. It presents a pleasant object-oriented interface to the fstab.
Features:
* Supports blockdev, label, and UUID specification of mount device.
* Extendable to parse non-standard fstab formats by defining a new Entry
class for that format.
* Easily examine and set mount options for an entry.
* Stable, functional interface.
* Fully documented with PHPDoc.
Reader and writer for GNU PO and MO files.
This package provides basic support to localize your application,
like locale based formatting of dates, numbers and currencies.
Beside that it attempts to provide an OS independent way to setlocale()
and aims to provide language and country names translated into many languages.
This class provides an easy way to retrieve all the strings for a multilingual
site from a data source (i.e. db).
The following containers are provided, more will follow:
- PEAR::DB
- PEAR::MDB
- PEAR::MDB2
- gettext
- XML
- PEAR::DB_DataObject (experimental)
It is designed to reduce the number of queries to the db, caching the results
when possible. An Admin class is provided to easily manage translations
(add/remove a language, add/remove a string).
Currently, the following decorators are provided:
- CacheLiteFunction (for file-based caching)
- CacheMemory (for memory-based caching)
- DefaultText (to replace empty strings with their keys)
- Iconv (to switch from/to different encodings)
- Lang (resort to fallback languages for empty strings)
- SpecialChars (replace html entities with their hex codes)
- UTF-8 (to convert UTF-8 strings to ISO-8859-1)
plconfig is an experimental commandline tool for configuring HomePlug
(Ethernet over AC) powerline bridges powered by the Intellon INT5130
chipset. Again, this tool is considered "between an ugly hack and
simple use-once-and-throw-away" quality by the program's author.
prips is a tool that can be used to print all of the IP address on a given
range. It can enhance the usability of tools that are made to work on only
one host at a time (e.g. whois).
"pstack" is a workalike for the Solaris program of the same name.
Running pstack on a process or core file produces a stack trace of
each thread in that process.
It's useful for finding out what wedged processes are up to, getting
profiles of what applications, and just satisfying one's curiosity.
Ruby-quota is a ruby library to manipulate filesystem quotas.
Terminal mixer can start processes inside a pseudo-terminal, which can
be accessed through a Unix socket, TCP or even raw ethernet (not yet
ported to FreeBSD). The programs can be linked to the current
terminal, or they can be unlinked like in nohup. But even in this
latter case you can connect to them using the mentioned protocols.
tm can also start programs as if they communicate through pipes
instead of terminals, and this can be quite useful for
remote-controlling applications.
More than one client can connect to the served pseudo-terminal, either
using tm as a client or telnet for TCP. You can choose if they are
only allowed to read, or they can also contribute on input.
unquote executes a command after unquoting a specified list of arguments,
so that arbitrary characters may be passed in command-line arguments.
