xmotd is a message-of-the-day browser for X11 and dumb-terminals, that
can also be used to broadcast messages to users logged in across a
network. xmotd periodically checks whether a file has been modified
and pops up and displays the contents of the file, if it has.
DeskMenu is a root menu program which is activated by clicking the root
window. It is configured from a .deskmenurc file in user's home directory.
DeskMenu is useful for window managers which do not provide a menu such as
Oroborus.
Docker is a docking application (WindowMaker dock app)
which acts as a system tray for KDE3 and GNOME2. It can
be used to replace the panel in either environment,
allowing you to have a system tray without running the
KDE/GNOME panel.
xrootconsole is a small utility which displays its input in a transparent
text box on X's root window. It will read from any file listed on the
command line or, by default, from stdin. It is most useful when it reads
from a FIFO; this allows you to redirect multiple commands to the FIFO
and monitor their output.
XSel is a command-line program for getting and setting the contents of
the X selection. Normally this is only accessible by manually
highlighting information and pasting it with the middle mouse button.
This port is similar to x11/xsel, but with different CLI syntax and
a bit more functionality. It is a lot more popular, too.
yalias has a window with two buttons and a text widget. The left
button clears the widget (and is bound to the Escape key). The right
button matches the contents of the widget against a series of regular
expressions that the user has previously specified in their
$HOME/.yaliasrc, and executes the specified command if it matches
any of them.
GS Krab is a framework and a daemon to enable GNUstep applications to
handle the special keys on multimedia keyboards. Since this would require
special hacks to work on different platform, and since those differents
platforms work differently, I thought putting those hacks together in a
centralized daemon would be the correct and clean way to do things.

LZO is a data compression library which is suitable for data
de-/compression in real-time. This means it favours speed over
compression ratio.
LZO implements a number of algorithms with the following features:
+ Decompression is simple and *very* fast.
+ Requires no memory for decompression.
+ Compression is pretty fast.
+ Requires 64 kB of memory for compression.
+ Allows you to dial up extra compression at a speed cost in the
compressor. The speed of the decompressor is not reduced.
+ Includes compression levels for generating pre-compressed data
which achieve a quite competitive compression ratio.
+ There is also a compression level which needs only 8 kB for
compression.
+ Algorithm is thread safe.
+ Algorithm is lossless.
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.
This voice can be activated via (voice_ked_diphone) .
