Python is an interpreted object-oriented programming language, and is often compared to Tcl, Perl or Scheme. This is a meta port to the Python interpreter and provides symbolic links to bin/python, bin/pydoc, bin/idle and so on to allow compatibility with version agnostic python scripts.

RegUtil is an implementation of IBM's RexxUtil for Regina. According to the author, it is not complete; however, it implements a large number of the RexxUtil functions, and is very useful. Note that any scripts which load RegUtil must be run with the 'regina' command, rather than 'rexx'; the latter does not support the use of external function packages.

SketchyLISP is an embeddable interpreter for a purely applicative dialect of Scheme. It may be considered an implementation of pure LISP plus global definitions and some input/output functions. This package contains the SketchyLISP interpreter and library, the manual, and example programs.

The Shakespeare programming language is another esoteric programming language like Chef, Sorted! and others. The main purpose of this language is to make the source code for programs written with it resemble a Shakespeare play. Yes, it's totally unnecessary, but also very fun.

This is Tcl8.4, an embeddable tool command language. The best way to get started with Tcl is to read ``Tcl and the Tk Toolkit'' by John K. Ousterhout, Addison-Wesley, ISBN 0-201-63337-X. A full set of manual pages is also provided with this package.

YAP is a high-performance Prolog compiler developed at LIACC/Universidade do Porto and at COPPE Sistemas/UFRJ. Its Prolog engine is based in the WAM (Warren Abstract Machine), with several optimizations for better performance. YAP follows the Edinburgh tradition, and is largely compatible with the ISO-Prolog standard and with Quintus and SICStus Prolog.

ArchiveSMTP is a mail archiver designed to be run on an SMTP mail server. It uses rule-based matching to collect and store mail passing through an MTA to specific locations in mbox format. Adding headers and piping output to other programs is also supported. The libmilter interface is used and must be supported by the MTA for ArchiveSMTP to work. Version: 1.2

Binc IMAP is a GPL licensed IMAP4rev1 server for Maildir, written in C++. It strives to be stable, fast, flexible, and RFC compliant. For those familiar with qmail-pop3d, this IMAP server will be the natural choice. It is invoked similarly and uses checkpassword to authenticate.

Archmbox is a simple email archiver written in Perl; it parses one or more mailboxes, selects some or all messages and then performs specific actions on the selected messages. Archmbox supports mbox and mbx mailbox formats. Four different modes are available: - List mode, which is useful to list all selected messages before archmbox performs the real operations (archiving or deleting) - Kill mode, if messages should be deleted from the mailbox(es) rather than archived - Archive mode, to archive the selected messages in a different mailbox - Copy mode, to copy the selected messages from the source mailbox Messages selection is based upon a date criteria; an absolute date or days offset can be specified. It is also possible to refine the selection using regular expressions on the header fields of the message. All archived messages are stored in a new mailbox with the same name of the original one plus .archived as extension (this is the default, but can be changed); the archive mailbox can be saved in gz or bz2 compressed format as well.
