This library provides an iconv() implementation, for use on systems which
don't have one, or whose implementation cannot convert from/to Unicode.
It can convert from any of these encodings to any other, through Unicode
conversion. It has also some limited support for transliteration, i.e.
when a character cannot be represented in the target character set, it can
be approximated through one or several similarly looking characters.
libiconv is for you if your application needs to support multiple character
encodings, but that support lacks from your system.
See either README or website for the list of supported encodings.
PFinger consists of server and client for the standard finger service.
The PFinger server is a replacement for the standard Unix finger server. It
also implements the pip-protocol which could become the finger v2 protocol.
Its advantage over existing finger servers like GNU Finger or similar
enhanced Finger servers are its configurability, compatibility and security
(e.g. the server does not run as root).
The Pfinger client can be used for several tasks: First it provides an easy
way to edit the information the PFinger Server gives out about you. Then it
can be used as graphical version of the standard finger client to monitor
who is online.
Gwyddion is a modular SPM (Scanning Probe Microsopy) data visualization
and analysis tool written with Gtk+.
It can be used for all most frequently used data processing operations
including: leveling, false color plotting, shading, filtering,
denoising, data editing, integral transforms, grain analysis, profile
extraction, fractal analysis, and many more. The program is primarily
focused on SPM data analysis (e.g. data obtained from AFM, STM, NSOM,
and similar microscopes). However, it can also be used for analysis of
SEM (Scanning Electron Microscopy) data or any other 2D data.
gtkpod is a platform independent graphical user interface for Apple's iPod
using GTK2. It supports the first to fifth generation, including the iPod
mini, iPod photo, iPod shuffle, iPod nano, and iPod video. It allows you to:
* Read your existing iTunesDB (i.e. import the existing contents of
your iPod including playcounts, ratings, and on-the-go playlists)
* Add MP3, WAV, M4A (non-protected AAC), M4B (audio book), and podcast
files (single files, directories or existing playlists) to the iPod
* Browse the contents of your local hard disk by album/artist/genre
* Create and modify playlists, including smart playlists
* Choose the charset the ID3 tags are encoded in from within gtkpod
* Extract tag information (artist, album, title, etc.) from the filename
* Detect duplicates when adding songs (optional)
* Remove and export tracks from your iPod
* Modify/Refresh ID3 tags, optionally updating the original file
* Synchronize directories
* Normalize the volume of your tracks (via mp3gain or the replay-gain tag)
* Download and display of Album Art from the Internet
* Work offline and synchronize your new playlists/songs with the iPod later
* Export your korganizer/kaddressbook/thunderbird/evocalendar/evolution/
webcalendar/... data to the iPod (scripts for other programs can be
easily added)
QuickPage sends messages to a paging terminal using the SNPP and IXO
(also known as TAP) protocols. It is normally used with no options
other than a recipient and the message text, in which case the message
is sent to the SNPP server where it is submitted to a page queue to be
sent by a separate daemon process.
Page groups and duty schedules are supported. Status notification
messages indicating the success or failure of a page are sent via
e-mail to submitters of high-priority (level 0) pages.
Tapi is a tool to automate the testing of your Application Programmer Interfaces
(APIs). Features:
- Test you API without writing any code (only edit a json file)
- Test you APIs in a much more 'natural' way by specifying urls/verbs and what
the output should be
- Verify anything from response status codes, headers, body content etc
- Also allows verification by issuing another API call to a different endpoint
to ensure a prior API call worked
- Execute arbitrary python scripts to populate request paramaters e.g. custom
headers
- Execute arbitrary python scripts to verify response from endpoint is valid
- Tests your APIs using your own APIs
PIDDLE - Plug-In Drawing, Does Little Else
------------------------------------------
PIDDLE is a Python module for creating two-dimensional graphics in a
manner that is both cross-platform and cross-media; that is, it can
support screen graphics (e.g. QuickDraw, Windows, Tk) as well as file
output (PostScript, PDF, GIF, etc.). It makes use of the native 2D
drawing calls of each backend, for maximum efficiency and quality. It
works by defining a base class (piddle.Canvas) with methods for all
supported drawing primitives. A particular drawing context is provided
in the form of a derived class. PIDDLE applications will be able to
automatically select an appropriate backend for the user's environment.
The GNOME On-Screen Keyboard (GOK) is an accessibility interface
that gives you control of your system without needing a keyboard.
The GOK makes available a hierarchical button system that enables
keyboardless entry of common accelerators, and contains a
clickable keyboard that sports suggested autocompletion of many
common words, and even some commands. The GOK will provide an
alternative interface to common commands and functions within
applications that utilize the AT SPI.
The GOK is designed to be usable by many alternative input
methods, i.e. not a common keyboard and mouse combination.
atlc is a program designed for finding the properties (characteristic
impedance, inductance per meter, capacitance per meter, velocity
factor, electric field distribution) of any transmission line with
2 or 3 conductors (i.e. a normal line or coupler). It uses the
finite difference method to determine these properties, and can
handle any cross section.
The program atlc needs to know shape of the transmission line's
cross section. This cross section is stored in a data file, which
happens to be a Windows bitmap file. The bitmap file is read by
atlc, following which the program performs the analysis. Look in
/usr/local/share/examples/atlc for some examples.
The original Panex puzzle is from the Japanese Magic Company
from the 1980's. Mathematicians at Bell Laboratories estimated
the number of moves to swap 2 columns of order 10 to be
27,564 <= N <= 31,537. It came in two varieties: one with a
blue and a yellow pyramid of order 10 on silver tiles; in the
gold version pieces of each color look alike i.e. no pyramid
is drawn on them), this is a little harder.
The original Tower of Hanoi puzzle is the invention of
Edouard Lucas and was sold as a toy in France in 1883. The
legend of 64 disks in the great temple of Benares of the god
Brahma is also his invention.
