To run: Simply type xscrabble. This will bring up the setup box which will allow you to enter the names and displays and other info for the game to wish to play. Then click on the Start Game button, (or Load Previous if you're restarting a game). The main program, xscrab, will then be automatically called with the appropriate options. The game is saved after every turn (in "~/.xscrabble.save" of the person running it) and can be restarted by running xscrabble, entering exactly the same info, and hitting the Load Previous button. This was a student project, and there are not likely to be any future releases. Have fun, Matt Chapman.

XSpringies is a mass and spring simulation system. It's intended use is more like that of a game, than some design package. It's written using Xlib only. No Motif or any other widgets sets are used. The animation in XSpringies is done using an off-screen Pixmap. The next frame is drawn on this pixmap, then is blitted onto the screen. Since the frame rate is about 30 frames per second, slower machines (or machines which have poorly written bit-blitting code) will be deathly slow and blinky.

The bulk of the game play involves finding power-ups and hidden areas and avoiding or squashing strange alien monsters bent on your destruction. There are a few hidden areas, and in several locations, the player will experience different levels based upon which path is chosen. There are no lives or continues in the game. If the player dies, he/she simply restarts at the beginning of the level. All creatures and power-ups are persistent in each level, in other words, if all but one enemy has been killed on a level when the player dies, there will only be that remaining creature as the player restarts.

Xskewb is a puzzle similar in nature to the famous Rubik's Cube. Its variations on the inspiration include using 5 blocks per side, including a large distinct diamond block, and optionally requiring correct block "orientation". This is similar to other puzzles such as the "Creative Puzzle Ball", "Meffert's Challenge", and Disney's "Mickey's Challenge". The original design was by Uwe Meffert ("Pyraminx Cube") and coined Skewb by Douglas Hofstadter. By building from the source and editing its Imakefile before the ``build'' phase, you may be able to use Motif or LessTif with this port.

Pioneer Space Simulator. Pioneer is a space adventure game set in the Milky Way galaxy at the turn of the 31st century. The game is open-ended, and you are free to explore the millions of star systems in the game. You can land on planets, slingshot past gas giants, and burn yourself to a crisp flying between binary star systems. You can try your hand at piracy, make your fortune trading between systems, or do missions for the various factions fighting for power, freedom or self-determination.

A route-finder for cyclists in Berlin and Brandenburg. BBBike is now ported to more than 200 cities around the world - thanks to the OpenStreetMap project. For more information see the BBBike @ World homepage http://www.bbbike.org ------------------------------------------------------------------------ BBBike is an information system for cyclists in Berlin and Brandenburg (Germany). It has the following features: * Displays a map with streets, railways, rivers, parks, altitude, and other features * Finds and shows routes between two points * Route-finder can be customized to match the cyclist's preferences: fastest/nicest route, take wind directions and hills into account, etc.) * Bike power calculator * Automatically fetches the current Berlin weather data

This package contains a library that is able to read and write German DTAUS files, DTAUS is an abbreviation for DatenTraegerAUStausch and refers to a special file format used by German credit institutes in order to manage money exchanges between accounts and institutes. Dieses Paket enthaelt ein Programm zur Verwaltung und Erstellung von DTA- bzw. DTAUS-Dateien. Damit wird belegloser Datentraegeraustausch fuer Ueberweisungen, Lastschriften, Lohnzahlungen in Euro mit Deutschen Banken automatisiert realisiert. Als Grundlage dient eine leicht verstaendliche ASCII-Datei, die in das DTA-Format uebersetzt wird. LICENSE: GPL2 or later

The GIMP is designed to provide an intuitive graphical interface to a variety of image editing operations. Here is a list of the GIMP's major features: Image editing ------------- * Selection tools including rectangle, ellipse, free, fuzzy, bezier and intelligent. * Transformation tools including rotate, scale, shear and flip. * Painting tools including bucket, brush, airbrush, clone, convolve, blend and text. * Effects filters (such as blur, edge detect). * Channel & color operations (such as add, composite, decompose). * Plug-ins which allow for the easy addition of new file formats and new effect filters. * Multiple undo/redo. This is "The Gimp" meta-port, see ports/graphics/gimp-app for more details

Cairo is a vector graphics library with cross-device output support. Currently supported output targets include the X Window System and in-memory image buffers. PostScript and PDF file output is planned. Cairo is designed to produce identical output on all output media while taking advantage of display hardware acceleration when available (eg. through the X Render Extension). Cairo provides a stateful user-level API with capabilities similar to the PDF 1.4 imaging model. Cairo provides operations including stroking and filling Bezier cubic splines, transforming and compositing translucent images, and antialiased text rendering.

dmtx-utils - software for reading and writing Data Matrix barcodes libdmtx is open source software for reading and writing Data Matrix barcodes on Linux, Unix, OS X, Windows, and certain mobile devices. The included utility programs, dmtxread and dmtxwrite, serve as the official interface to libdmtx from the command line, and also provide a good reference for programmers who wish to write their own programs that interact with libdmtx. Data Matrix barcodes are two-dimensional symbols that hold a dense pattern of data with built-in error correction. The Data Matrix symbology (sometimes casually referred to as "DataMatrix") was invented and released into the public domain by RVSI Acuity CiMatrix.
