tcping does a TCP connect to the given ip/port combination.
The user can specify a timeout in seconds.
This is useful in shell scripts running in firewalled environments.
Often SYNs are just being dropped by firewalls,
thus connection establishment will be retried several times
(for minutes) until a TCP timeout is reached.
With tcping it is possible to check first if the desired port
is reachable and then start connection establishment.
Spread is a toolkit and daemon that provide multicast and group communications
support to applications across local and wide area networks. Spread is designed
to make it easy to write groupware, networked multimedia, reliable server, and
collaborative work applications.
Spread consists of a library that user applications are linked with, a binary
daemon which runs on each computer that is part of the processor group, and
various utility and demonstration programs.
read-edid is a pair of tools (originally by John Fremlin) for reading the
EDID from a monitor. It should work with most monitors made since 1996,
assuming the video card supports the standard read commands (most do).
Two tools are provided: get-edid, which gets the raw EDID information from
the monitor, and parse-edid, which turns the raw binary information into a
xorg.conf-compatible monitor section (or xrandr-compatible modelines).
This is a thin wrapper around the shellwords.pl package, which comes
preinstalled with Perl. This module imports a single subroutine,
shellwords(). The shellwords() routine parses lines of text and
returns a set of tokens using the same rules that the Unix shell does
for its command-line arguments. Tokens are separated by whitespace,
and can be delimited by single or double quotes. The module also
respects backslash escapes.
This distribution contains two programs, xrsh and xrlogin.
Xrsh is designed to allow you to start an X client on a remote machine
with the window displayed on the current server's $DISPLAY. It has
many options that give you the ability to propagate environment
variables (including DISPLAY) to the remote system and works with
various types of X server access control including xauth and xhost.
Xrlogin opens a local xterm window and runs rlogin or telnet to
connect to a remote machine.
Libkgeomap is a KDE4 C++ wrapper around world map components such as Marble,
OpenstreetMap, and GoogleMap, for browsing and arranging photos on such maps.
JasperReports is a powerful open source Java reporting tool that has the
ability to deliver rich content onto the screen, to the printer or into
PDF, HTML, XLS, CSV and XML files.
It is entirely written in Java and can be used in a variety of Java enabled
applications, including J2EE or Web applications, to generate dynamic content.
Its main purpose is to help creating page oriented, ready to print documents in
a simple and flexible manner.
If you need a GUI, please see the port devel/ireport.
This jar file comes from the old Netscape Navigator 4.0.
It allows a Java applet access to Javascript objects.
It is used by OpenDX.
This library, Class::ISA, provides functions that return the list (in
order) of names of classes Perl would search to find a method, with no
duplicates.
DefHash is a specification for using hashes to define things. It was born out of
several other projects/specifications like Sah, Rinci, Riap, Module::Patch.
