An installer created by the InstallShield software stores the files it will
install inside of InstallShield Cabinet Files. It would thus be desirable
to be able to extract the Microsoft Cabinet Files from the InstallShield
Cabinet Files in order to be able to install the applications without access
to Microsoft Windows.
- Use a well known open source license (MIT)
- Work on both little-endian and big-endian systems
- Separate the implementation in a tool and a library
- Support InstallShield versions 5 and later
- Be able to list contents of InstallShield Cabinet Files
- Be able to extract files from InstallShield Cabinet Files

spatialite-tools is a collection of open source Command Line Interface (CLI)
tools supporting SpatiaLite.
* spatialite: a complete CLI front-end, more or less equivalent to the well
known sqlite3 front-end, but fully supporting SpatiaLite
* spatialite_tool: a tool supporting import/export of Shapefiles and DBF-files
* shp_doctor: a diagnostic tool to check anomalous shapefiles
* exif_loader: an import tool for EXIF or EXIF-GPS (JPEG) pictures
* spatialite_network: a tool creating a VirtualNetwork (supporting
shortest path / routing SQL queries)
* spatialite_gml: a tool importing GML files
* spatialite_convert: a tool converting DB-files from different versions
of SpatiaLite
* spatialite_dxf: an tool importing DXF files
* OSM-tools: spatialite_osm_raw, spatialite_osm_filter, spatialite_osm_map,
spatialite_osm_net, spatialite_osm_overpass: tools supporting
OpenStreetMap datasets
* XML-tools: spatialite_xml_load, spatialite_xml_collapse,
spatialite_xml_print, spatialite_xml_validator: tools supporting XML files
processing
The App::Cache module lets an application cache data locally. There are a
few times an application would need to cache data: when it is retrieving
information from the network or when it has to complete a large
calculation.
For example, the Parse::BACKPAN::Packages module downloads a file off the
net and parses it, creating a data structure. Only then can it actually
provide any useful information for the programmer.
Parse::BACKPAN::Packages uses App::Cache to cache both the file download
and data structures, providing much faster use when the data is cached.
This module stores data in the home directory of the user, in a dot
directory. For example, the Parse::BACKPAN::Packages cache is actually
stored underneath "~/.parse_backpan_packages/cache/". This is so that
permissions are not a problem - it is a per-user, per-application cache.
The C++ Portable Components currently consist of four libraries.
The Foundation library contains a platform abstraction layer
(including classes for multithreading, file system access, logging,
etc.), as well as a large number of useful utility classes, such
various stream buffer and stream classes, URI handling, and many
more. The remaining libraries include:
o Crypto - Encrypt/decrypt data or I/O streams
o Data - database access ODBC, SQLite, MySQL client
o Net - network classes (sockets, HTTP, etc.)
o NetSSL - SSL/TLS protocol sockets based on OpenSSL
o PageCompiler - C++ Server Page Compiler, for dynamic HTML in C++ apps
o XML - parser with SAX2 and DOM interfaces and an XMLWriter
o Util - config files and command line arguments, various utility classes
o Zip classes for (de)compressing data or I/O streams
This is now known as the '-all' distribution by the Poco project,
but the FreeBSD port remains named -ssl for hysterical raisins.
iMaze is a multi-player network action game for TCP/IP with 3D graphics
under X11 (XView, Motif or Athena). You run through a labyrinth and shoot
everything that is round without being hit by other round anythings.
Of course anything round is one of the following:
* other players playing over the net
* computer controlled ninjas
* deadly shots (except your own)
Features:
* sophisticated, reliable network protocol, works even with SLIP connections
via modem; modular, portable source code
* windows can be freely scaled to avoid speed drawbacks due to poor display
performance
* sound and joystick support
* scores; camera mode; labyrinth generator and interactive labyrinth editor
Audio support is somewhat flaky on FreeBSD (synchronization problems).
It works better with the old Voxware driver than with the current pcm driver.

S10sh is a USB/serial userspace driver for the Canon PowerShot digital cameras.
Using S10sh you can download, upload and explore the images captured with your
PowerShot camera. The interface is quite similar to DOS's command.com.
S10sh supports the following PowerShot models:
G1 (works with USB, not reported if works with the serial interface)
G3 (from local patches, perhaps needs further testing/debug)
S10 (serial and USB)
S20 (serial and USB)
S100 aka Digital Ixus (USB only, since it lacks the serial interface)
A20 (needs testing)
A50 (serial only, supported with problems)
Pro70 (serial only, supported with problems)
Other models are reported to work as well: Elph S400, Digital Ixus V3, S30,
A60, EOS-10D.
With the release of libusb 0.1.3b (http://sourceforge.net/projects/libusb/),
S10sh gained USB support under FreeBSD.

I could not find a client with the features I was looking for, so yes,
here is yet another IRC client. Here's what makes it different from
others:
* absolutely NO scripting ability.
* termcap based (e.g. fast!).
* emacs-style key bindings
* full ircd 2.9+ support.
* virtual windows a la screen(1).
* multi server support.
* non blocking TCP connections.
* basic support for multi-homed systems.
* everything goes and stays in the lastlog.
* convenient scrolling (with searching abilities) in the lastlog.
* 10 display filters! (2 ignore features are based on this).
* highly customizable. (format strings, filters..)
* customization possible at every level (channel, window, server..).
* non blocking DNS lookups (A and PTR records).
* "tabkey" style completion for /msg, /squery and public discussion.
* DCC support.
* CTCP support.

"xtail" watches the growth of files. It's like running a "tail -f"
on a bunch of files at once.
You can specify both filenames and directories on the command line.
If you specify a directory, it watches all the files in that
directory. It will notice when new files are created (and start
watching them) or when old files are deleted (and stop watching
them).
This program is an oldie but goodie. It was posted to comp.sources.misc
in July 1989 (see ftp.uu.net:/usenet/comp.sources.misc/volume7/xtail.Z).
I remember posting an even earlier version to alt.sources. It has
been published in the O'Reilly & Associates "Unix Power Tools"
collection (book and CD-ROM). Over the years, some fly-by-night
organizations (such as the MIT X Consortium and SGI) have tried to
steal the "xtail" name. Don't be fooled! Insist on the original.
