syslog-ng is an enhanced log daemon, supporting a wide range of input and
output methods: syslog, unstructured text, message queues, databases (SQL
and NoSQL alike) and more.
Key features:
* receive and send RFC3164 and RFC5424 style syslog messages
* work with any kind of unstructured data
* receive and send JSON formatted messages
* classify and structure logs with builtin parsers (csv-parser(),
db-parser(), ...)
* normalize, crunch and process logs as they flow through the system
* hand on messages for further processing using message queues (like
AMQP), files or databases (like PostgreSQL or MongoDB).

A flexible backup tool
Features:
o Easy to configure
o Uses dump, afio, GNU tar, cpio, pax, or zip archivers
o Full and numbered levels of incremental backup (acts like "dump")
o Compression and buffering options for all backup types
o Does remote filesystems (over rsh/ssh; no special service)
o Can backup only files not owned by rpm, or changed from rpm version
o Writes to tapes, on-disk archive files, or on-disk directory trees
o Keeps a table of contents so you know archives are on each tape
o Nice log files
You can get additional information about remote backup strategies using SSH
at http://www.sysfault.org/flexbackup.html
Monitor::Simple allows simple monitoring of applications and services of your IT
infrastructure. There are many such tools, some of them very complex and
sophisticated. For example, one widely used is Nagios (http://www.nagios.org/).
The Monitor::Simple does not aim, as its name indicates, for all features
provided by those tools. It allows, however, to check whether your applications
and services are running correctly. Its simple command-line interface can be
used in cron jobs and reports can be viewed as a single HTML or text page.

This module provides functions that deals with formatting data with
Content-Type 'text/plain; format=flowed' as described in RFC2646
(http://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc2646.txt). In a nutshell,
format=flowed text solves the problem in plain text files where it
is not known which lines can be considered a logical paragraph,
enabling lines to be automatically flowed (wrapped and/or joined)
as appropriate when displaying.
In format=flowed, a soft newline is expressed as " \n", while hard
newlines are expressed as "\n". Soft newlines can be automatically
deleted or inserted as appropriate when the text is reformatted.
This module implements an XML diff producing XML output. Both input and
output are DOM documents, as implemented by XML::LibXML.
The diff format used by XML::DifferenceMarkup is meant to be
human-readable (i.e. simple, as opposed to short) - basically the diff
is a subset of the input trees, annotated with instruction element nodes
specifying how to convert the source tree to the target by inserting and
deleting nodes. To prevent name colisions with input trees, all added
elements are in a namespace http://www.locus.cz/XML/DifferenceMarkup
(the diff will fail on input trees which already use that namespace).
This is a Perl extension to XML::Parser. It adds a new 'Style' to
XML::Parser, called 'Dom', that allows XML::Parser to build an Object
Oriented datastructure with a DOM Level 1 compliant interface.
The XML::XQL module implements the XQL (XML Query Language) proposal
submitted to the XSL Working Group in September 1998. The spec can
be found at
http://www.w3.org/TandS/QL/QL98/pp/xql.html
Most of the contents related to the XQL syntax can also be found
in the XML::XQL::Tutorial that comes with this distribution. Note
that XQL is not the same as XML-QL!
Perl bindings to the 3.x series of the gtk+ toolkit. This module
allows you to write graphical user interfaces in a Perlish and
object-oriented way, freeing you from the casting and memory
management in C, yet remaining very close in spirit to original
API. Find out more about gtk+ at http://www.gtk.org.
The gtk+ reference manual is also a handy companion when writing
Gtk3 programs in Perl: http://developer.gnome.org/gtk3/stable/. The
Perl bindings follow the C API very closely, and the C reference
documentation should be considered the canonical source.
wmblob is a pretty much useless program, that shows moving blobs. It's
a nice dockapp for Window Maker (www.windowmaker.org), and it may well
run with other window mangers.
How to use it:
Just start it. There are no command line options. You can change the
colors with the three mouse buttons:
- Left button: changes the inner color of the blobs.
- Middle button: changes the border color of the blobs.
- Right button: changes the background color.
There are 16 colors available. But not every combination looks good.
