mod_xsendfile is a small Apache2 module that processes X-SENDFILE headers
registered by the original output handler.
If it encounters the presence of such header it will discard all output and
send the file specified by that header instead using Apache internals
including all optimizations like caching-headers and sendfile or mmap if
configured.
It is useful for processing script-output of e.g. php, perl or any cgi.
Dojango is a reusable django application that helps you to
use the client-side framework dojo within your django project.
It provides capabilites to easily switch between several dojo
versions and sources (e.g. aol, google, local)
Delivers helping utilities, that makes the development of rich
internet applications in combination with dojo more comfortable.
It makes the building of your own packed dojo release easier.
Zen Cart truly is the art of e-commerce; free, user-friendly, open source
shopping cart software. The ecommerce web site design program is being developed
by a group of like-minded shop owners, programmers, designers, and consultants
that think ecommerce web design could be and should be done differently.
Some shopping cart solutions seem to be complicated programming exercises
instead of responding to users' needs, Zen Cart puts the merchants and shoppers
requirements first.
WMFishTime is a time/date applet for WindowMaker (and BlackBox, E,
SawFish...). Top part has the clock face, bottom part has day of the
week, followed by day, followed by month. Yellow hand counts seconds,
green hand counts minutes, red hand counts hours. Few seconds after
startup there are at least 32 bubbles floating up behind the clock face.
There are 4 fishes randomly swimming back and forth. If you move your
mouse inside the dockapp window, the fish will get scared and run away.
Compton is a compositor for X11, which was forked from Dana Jansens' fork
of xcompmgr, and heavily refactored.
Most prominent changes from the original xcompmgr:
- OpenGL/GLX backend in addition to the old XRender backend
- Inactive window transparency and dimming
- Titlebar/frame and menu transparency
- Shadows for ARGB windows, e.g. terminals with transparency
- Colored shadows; new fade system
- Blur of background of transparent windows, window color inversion
- Configuration file support with blacklisting
MythTV is a "Personal Video Recorder", i.e. a computer-based video
recorder. It supports pausing and rewinding live TV, multiple tuner
cards, hardware or software video compression, onscreen program
guides and a distributed architecture.
MythTV requires tuner drivers which support the V4L standard.
Currently no official FreeBSD driver does so, but the latest version
of a beta version of the cxm driver is available from
http://usleepless.110mb.com/pvrxxx_port-10042007.tgz. Problems
have been reported with this port; if you use it, you should join
the FreeBSD-multimedia mailing list and report where appropriate.
The original puzzle has 9 triangles per face (size = 3) and
has period 3 turning (i.e. the face or points turn in 120 degree
intervals). The puzzle was designed by Uwe Meffert and called
the Pyraminx. This has 2^5*3^8*6!/2 or 75,582,720 different
combinations.
Another puzzle Senior Pyraminx 3x3x3 exists only on paper, it
has period 2 turning (i.e. edges turn with 180 degree intervals)
but the corners would fall off unless it had some tricky
mechanism. (This may be the same as the Master Pyraminx which
has 446,965,972,992,000 different combinations).
Another puzzle (which was not widely distributed), the Junior
Pyraminx (and similarly the Junior Pyraminx Star, a octahedron
formed by two tetrahedra, this has 7!*3^6 or 3,674,160 different
combinations), has 4 triangles (size = 2) per face and at the
time I designed this computer puzzle thought that it had only
period 2 turning (i.e the edges rotate). It turns out the puzzle
has a period 4 turning (edges turn with 90 degree intervals)
which makes it analogous to the 2x2x2 Rubik's cube. This puzzle
makes various non-tetrahedral shapes. The puzzle contained here
has no period 4 turning flexability.
abduco provides session management i.e., it allows programs to be run
independently from their controlling terminal. That is programs can be
detached - run in the background - and then later reattached. Together
with dvtm it provides a simpler and cleaner alternative to tmux or
screen.
abduco is in many ways very similar to dtach but is a completely
independent implementation which is actively maintained, contains no
legacy code, provides a few additional features, has a cleaner, more
robust implementation and is distributed under the ISC license.
mod_log_mysql is a module for the Apache 2 webserver which permits
request logging into a MySQL database.
Key features are:
* Seamless integration into the standard Apache logging
configuration.
* Only a single configuration line needed to start logging.
* Free SQL use.
* Multiple databases, database users and/or database servers.
* Connection pooling, only one connection per log target, per
child process.
* Logs data as it is: e.g. times as SQL DATETIME and n/a items
as SQL NULL.
* Won't loose data if the database server is down.
Note: this module requires mod_log_config-st
A2ps formats each named file for printing in a postscript printer; if
no file is given, a2ps reads from the standard input. The format used
is nice and compact: normally two pages on each physical page, borders
surrounding pages, headers with useful information (page number,
printing date, file name or supplied header), etc.
This is very useful for making archive listings of programs.
