This is a small wrapper around the "directory", "Unix", and "Win32" packages, for use with "system-filepath". It provides a consistent API to the various versions of these packages distributed with different versions of GHC. In particular, this library supports working with POSIX files that have paths which can't be decoded in the current locale encoding.

libIDL is a library for creating trees of CORBA Interface Definition Language (IDL) files, which is a specification for defining portable interfaces. libIDL was initially written for ORBit (the ORB from the GNOME project, and the primary means of libIDL distribution). However, the functionality was designed to be as reusable and portable as possible.

OpenSync is a PIM (Personal Information Management) data synchronization framework that consists of several plug-ins that can be used to connect to different devices and systems. For a list of currently supported devices see http://www.opensync.org/wiki/DeviceCompatibilityList.

git-cinnabar is a git remote helper to interact with mercurial repositories. Contrary to other such helpers, it doesn't use a local mercurial clone under the hood, although it currently does require mercurial to be installed for some of its libraries.

MSPDebug is a free debugger for use with MSP430 MCUs. It supports FET430UIF, eZ430, RF2500 and Olimex MSP-JTAG-TINY programmers. It can be used as a proxy for gdb or as an independent debugger with support for programming, disassembly and reverse engineering.

Mono.Addins is a framework for creating extensible applications, and for creating libraries which extend those applications. Mono.Addins has been designed to be easy to use and useful for a wide range of applications: from simple applications with small extensibility needs, to complex applications which need support for large add-in structures.

App::Info provides a generalized interface for providing metadata about software packages installed on a system. The idea is that App::Info subclasses can be used in Perl application installers in order to determine whether software dependencies have been fulfilled, and to get necessary metadata about those software packages.

Many applications require that a large set of results be broken down into a smaller set of 'windows', or 'pages' in web language. Array::Window implements an algorithm specifically for dealing with these windows. It is very flexible and permissive, making adjustments to the window as needed.

Class::Data::Inheritable is for creating accessor/mutators to class data. That is, if you want to store something about your class as a whole (instead of about a single object). This data is then inherited by your subclasses and can be overridden.

This is a simple module that factory classes can use to generate new types of objects on the fly, providing a consistent interface to common groups of objects. Factory classes are used when you have different implementations for the same set of tasks but may not know in advance what implementations you will be using.
