GdMap is a tool to inspect the used space of folders. Files are
displayed in a cushioned tree map. Useful if you wonder where all your
free space went to.
Fusepak is a small program that makes it possible to mount PACK or WAD files
(used in many games, most notably by id Software) under a directory. This
is achieved by using FUSE (Filesystem in Userspace). The following formats
are supported:
- WAD, can be found in Wolfenstein 3D and Spear of Destiny games
- PACK, can be found in Quake, Quake2, and other games based on
id Software's Quake engine
- WAD2, can be found inside of PACK files
- LGP, can be found in PC version of Final Fantasy VII
- PAK, can be found in Dune 2
- KSGRP, can be found in Duke Nukem 3D
Secondary goal of fusepak is to provide simple framework which allows one to
quickly add support for another file format.
httpfs depends on FUSE. It uses HTTP/1.1 extensions to read arbitrary
bytes from a file on a web-server. This is particular interesting for
an iso, since it can be investigated (loop device) without actually
downloading the whole iso.
Pkgview is an application that displays the versions of all installed GNOME 2
components, then tries to guess the overall GNOME 2 version. This tool
can be very useful when trying to report bugs in GNOME's Bugzilla
database.
GSmartControl is a graphical user interface for smartctl (from
sysutils/smartmontools port), which is a tool for querying and
controlling SMART (Self-Monitoring, Analysis, and Reporting
Technology) data on modern hard disk drives. It allows you to
inspect the drive's SMART data to determine its health, as well
as run various tests on it.
HOZ is what you would call a "file splitter". Its file format is the same as
the one used by the "Hacha" software, a well known splitter in Spain and
Latinamerica. HOZ is an open-source and portable C implementation of an
"Hacha" compatible splitter.
Attempts to recover a hard disk that has bad blocks on it.
WARNING: A hard disk with bad blocks on is likely to fail! If you value
your data you should get a new hard disk instead of using this program!
However, if you can't afford a new hard disk, or just like being reckless
with your data then this tool might just help you out!
This is a daemon the uses the LM78/79, WINBond 83781/83782/83783/83626
or the ASUS 99127 hardware monitor chips to warn the operator when
something is out of range. The software is capable of monitoring up
to 3 temperatures, 3 fan speeds and 7 voltages. The configuration file
specifies which functions are active and their acceptable ranges.
With the healthdc companion program the status can be read from any
networked computer. The healthd daemon's network connection is protected
by libwrap and /etc/hosts.allow.
GKrellM - GNU (or Gtk) Krell Monitors (or Meters)
With a single process, GKrellM manages multiple stacked monitors and supports
applying themes to match the monitors appearance to your window manager,
Gtk, or any other theme.
htop is an enhanced version of top, the interactive process viewer,
which can display the list of processes in a tree form.
Comparison between 'htop' and 'top'
* In 'htop' you can scroll the list vertically and horizontally
to see all processes and full command lines.
* In 'top' you are subject to a delay for each unassigned
key you press (especially annoying when multi-key escape
sequences are triggered by accident).
* 'htop' starts faster ('top' seems to collect data for a while
before displaying anything).
* In 'htop' you don't need to type the process number to
kill a process, in 'top' you do.
* In 'htop' you don't need to type the process number or
the priority value to renice a process, in 'top' you do.
* In 'htop' you can kill multiple processes at once.
* 'top' is older, hence, more tested.
