Ports Search

The utility allows you to download firmware into and upload firmware from the memory of a Cypress EZ-USB/FX2/FX3 chips. It is a de facto standard for programming this family of devices. This port is based on original fxload(8) program available from Linux Hotplug Project. Libusb support has been provided to correctly work on FreeBSD and patches for the FX3 have been merged in.

gtkfind is the program to use when you don't want to have to remember all the options to find(1). It is a graphical program that allows you to search for files and (optionally) perform operations on them. You can search for files by using wildcards, by matching file types and/or permissions, etc. gtkfind requires X and the GTK+ toolkit. It is still under development, but has reached a stage where it is actually useful.

Ddate prints the date in Discordian date format. If called with no arguments, ddate will get the current system date, convert this to the Discordian date format and print this on the standard output. Alternatively, a Gregorian date may be specified on the command line, in the form of a numerical day, month and year. More information about subgenius can be found at http://www.subgenius.com/

Lazyread is a C program that auto-scrolls files on your screen in movie credit fashion. It allows the user to read without having to manually scroll down to see new pages. There are lots of features, such as being able to choose the speed at which it scrolls, pause, dynamic speed up, the ability to highlight lines that contain a specified string, and much more. - Michael L. Hostbaek mich@FreeBSD.org

Acme::ButFirst allows you to execute a block of code, but first do something else. Perfect for when you wish to add to the start of a long block of code, but don't have the energy to scroll upwards in your editor. Acme::ButFirst recognises both butfirst and but first as keywords. Usage of Acme::ButFirst is lexically scoped. ButFirstification can be explicitly disabled by using no Acme::ButFirst.

YABT means Yet another Braille Translator. YABT is a general purpose Braille translation system written in pure python. It is primarily designed to be used by the BrlTex Project, but due to its general design it may be suited to use in other projects. Currently YABT has a table for translation in to British Braille encoded in ASCII Braille, but tables for other codes and other output encodings such as unicode Braille are possible.

Camserv is a free program to do streaming video through the web Streaming video can be sent to both Netscape and Internet Explorer clients. However, Internet Explorer under Windows cannot apparently handle the multi-part JPEGs, and therefore a special javascript page must be setup. One is included in the distribution as an example. Currently, the only supported BSD device is the bktr driver. Both tunable modes and camera inputs are supported.

Fxtv is an X11-based FreeBSD app that provides TV-in-a-window and image/audio/video capture capabilities for Brooktree Bt848/849/878/879 and Pinnacle PCTV tuner/capture cards. To use this app, you need a capture card supported by the bktr(4) driver. Examples include the Hauppauge Wincast/TV, the STB TV PCI, and the Intel Smart Video Recorder III. See the 'bktr' man page for more information.

[From the README:] this is a small channel scan tool for vdr which generates ATSC, DVB-C, DVB-S/S2 and DVB-T channels.conf files. It's 50% "scan" from linuxtv-dvb-apps-1.1.0, the differences are: - no initial tuning data needed, because scanning without this data is exactly what a scan tool like this should do - it detects automatically which DVB/ATSC card to use.

libfame is a video encoding library. It can currently encode MPEG-1 and MPEG-4 rectangular video, as well as MPEG-4 video with arbitrary shape. Objectives - Compliance : Provide bitstreams compliant to the MPEG-1, MPEG-2 and MPEG-4 video standards. - Speed : Provide a fast implementation of the techniques used in MPEG standards. - Flexibility : Allow the user to choose between different options for speed, compression ratio and quality. - Portability : Support many different platforms and architectures.
