[ excerpt (with adaptations) from developer's website with modifications ]
These tools allow information about (ogminfo) or extraction from
(ogmdemux) or creation of (ogmmerge) OGG media streams. Note that
I'll use OGM for "OGG media streams".
Supported stream types include video streams from AVIs or Ogg files
and Vorbis audio from Ogg files. The resulting files can be played
back with mplayer or with the OggDS Direct Show filters under
Windows.
VTun provides the method for creating Virtual Tunnels over TCP/IP
networks and allows to shape, compress, encrypt traffic in that
tunnels.
Supported type of tunnels are: PPP, IP, Ethernet and most of other
serial protocols and programs. VTun is easily and highly configurable,
it can be used for various network task like VPN, Mobile IP, Shaped
Internet access, IP address saving, etc. It is completely user
space implementation and does not require modification to any kernel
parts.
This module implements the frame (de)serialization and representation
of the Advanced Message Queue Protocol (http://www.amqp.org/).
It is to be used in conjunction with client or server software that
does the actual TCP/IP communication. While it's being written with
AMQP version 0-8 in mind, as the spec is defined by an external xml
file, support for 0-9, 0-9-1 and eventually 0-10 is hoped for.
Enhanced version of VNC, called TightVNC (grown from the VNC Tight Encoder
project), which is optimized to work over slow network connections such as
low-speed modem links. While original VNC may be very slow when your
connection is not fast enough, with TightVNC you can work remotely almost
in real time in most environments. Besides bandwidth optimizations,TightVNC
also includes many other improvements, optimizations and bugfixes over VNC.
Note that TightVNC is free, cross-platform and compatible with the standard
VNC.
This program is especially useful for russian/ukrainian/belarusian users
but however can help those who reads mail from people that uses such
brain-damaged web-mailers as yahoo mail.
Fatigue with xterm when reading mail from mutt? Tired to press "Do Full
reset" every time when terminal becames full of garbage? This program is
for you! It removes unsafe characters from email & makes xterm happy!
Intended to be used with procmail.
From the README file for Lingua::RU::Charset:
Lingua::RU::Charset - Perl extension for detecting and converting
various russian character sets: KOI8-r, Windows-1251, CP866,
ISO-8859-5, X-Mac-Cyrillic, russian text in english letters,
russian part of Unicode and UTF-8. This module can be especially
useful for computers with broken cyrillic locales (like foreign
web hosts).
This module does not use locale or unicode and is written in pure Perl,
so it will probably work at any computer.
Lynis is an auditing tool for Unix (specialists). It scans the
system and available software, to detect security issues. Beside
security related information it will also scan for general system
information, installed packages and configuration mistakes.
This software aims in assisting automated auditing, software patch
management, vulnerability and malware scanning of Unix based systems.
It can be run without prior installation, so inclusion on read only
storage is no problem (USB stick, cd/dvd).
The stunnel program is designed to work as SSL encryption
wrapper between remote client and local (inetd-startable) or
remote server. The concept is that having non-SSL aware dae-
mons running on your system you can easily setup them to
communicate with clients over secure SSL channel.
stunnel can be used to add SSL functionality to commonly
used inetd daemons like POP-2, POP-3 and IMAP servers
without any changes in the programs' code.
An integrated solution for XML-based publishing in print and web.
It is specifically targeted at producing technical documentation
in the field of computer science.
Documents are written in an XML-based markup language and translated
to different formats with XSL-transformations. At this time, eCromedos
supports the target formats XHTML and LATEX. Where LATEX output can be
further processed into high-quality printable formats by use of the
TEX typesetting system (http://www.ctan.org).
Python connector for ElasticSearch - the pythonic way to use ElasticSearch
We are working to provide full support to ElasticSearch 1.x (check the
develop branch: we are using the git-flow workflow) that'll have:
* connection based on Official ElasticSearch client ??
* full support to ElasticSearch 1.x (removed old support due incompatibility
* with old version of ES)
* migration from multi_field to >field>.fields
* refactory of old code to be more pythonic
* performance improvements
