ASV is a popular Python module to parse or write simple text file formats
such as comma-separated values (CSV), tab-separated values (TSV) and
colon-separated values. It can easily be extended to cope with other
related file formats.
This port installs both a Python module ("ASV"), and an executable
command-line script ("asv").
This release of ASV requires Python 2.0 or later, and is still to be regarded
as a beta version.
PDFMiner is a tool for extracting information from PDF documents. Unlike other
PDF-related tools, it focuses entirely on getting and analyzing text data.
PDFMiner allows to obtain the exact location of texts in a page, as well as
other information such as fonts or lines. It includes a PDF converter that can
transform PDF files into other text formats (such as HTML).
It has an extensible PDF parser that can be used for other purposes instead
of text analysis.
Library to create spreadsheet files compatible with
MS Excel 97/2000/XP/2003 XLS files, on any platform, with Python 2.3
to 2.6
xlwt is a library for generating spreadsheet files that are compatible
with Excel 97/2000/XP/2003, OpenOffice.org Calc, and Gnumeric. xlwt
has full support for Unicode. Excel spreadsheets can be generated on
any platform without needing Excel or a COM server. The only
requirement is Python 2.3 to 2.6. xlwt is a fork of pyExcelerator.
This package contains SGML formatting tools that were once a part
of the base FreeBSD distribution. This port should be regarded
as a temporary solution to formatting SGML files until the
wrinkles in jade, a DSSSL processor, get ironed out.
If you are running FreeBSD 2.1.x, you should fetch the groff mm
macros from FreeBSD 2.2 or later because the macros in 2.1.x are
seriously broken.

Parsimonious aims to be the fastest arbitrary-lookahead parser written
in pure Python and the most usable. It's based on parsing expression
grammars (PEGs), which means you feed it a simplified sort of EBNF
notation. Parsimonious was designed to undergird a MediaWiki parser
that wouldn't take 5 seconds or a GB of RAM to do one page, but it's
applicable to all sorts of languages.
The Fira font family was designed to cover the legibility needs for a large
range of handsets varying in screen quality and rendering. It comes in a
Sans Serif with 16 weights all accompanied by italic styles. The package also
includes a Mono Spaced variant with 3 weights (regular, medium and bold). The
UFO source files are included in examples.
Web Font: EOT, WOFF, WOFF2, TTF, and boilerplate HTML+CSS
*supports advanced Open Type typographic layout features and languages
GeneWeb is a genealogy software program with a Web interface
originally developed by Daniel de Rauglaudre, but currently
maintained by fabien@geneanet.org. It can be used off-line
or in a Web environment. It uses very efficient techniques
of relationship and consanguinity computing, developed in
collaboration with Didier Remy, research Director at INRIA.
Feel free to enable option GTK2 to try the new GUI. It's
only disabled by default to avoid accidental GTK2 dependencies.
mod_auth_pubtkt is a simple Web single sign-on (SSO) solution for Apache. It
validates authentication tickets provided by the client in a cookie using
public-key cryptography (DSA or RSA). Thus, only the login server that
generates the tickets needs to possess the private key, while Web servers
can verify tickets given only the public key. The implementation of the
login server is left to the user, but an example and a library in PHP are
provided with the distribution.
Django is a high-level Python Web framework that encourages rapid development
and clean, pragmatic design.
Developed and used over the past two years by a fast-moving online-news
operation, Django was designed from scratch to handle two challenges: the
intensive deadlines of a newsroom and the stringent requirements of experienced
Web developers. It has convenient niceties for developing content-management
systems, but it's an excellent tool for building any Web site.
