This application uses an ICMP ping/reply scheme to periodically poll a number
of interfaces. The results are displayed as a matrix of leds, that are green
if the interface is alive, yellow if it did not respond once, and flashing red
if it keeps not responding.
You can easily check which system corresponds to each led by pointing the mouse
over the leds.
It is intended to be run from the WindowMaker dock, and it can monitor up to
63 interfaces.
rawdog is an RSS Aggregator Without Delusions Of Grandeur.
Written in Python, it uses Mark Pilgrim's feed parser. It runs from
cron, collects articles from a number of feeds, and generates a
static HTML page listing the newest articles in date order. It
supports per-feed customizable update times, and uses ETags,
Last-Modified, and gzip compression to minimize network bandwidth
usage.
rawdog's output format is similar to that of PyDS and Hep.
suck feeds news to local INN or CNEWS server without the remote NNTP feeding.
This is useful, if you get news from NNTP server with dialup connection.
Suck is a program used to grab news from a remote NNTP news server and
bring it to your local machine, without the remote server doing
anything special. If you have read permission on the server, you can
use suck. Suck does NOT use the NEWNEWS command, hated by many
administrators.
This is a set of Perl 5 modules for reading, manipulating, and
writing the .prc and .pdb database files used by PalmOS devices such
as the PalmPilot.
It is fairly easy to extend the functionality of this package
by writing parsers for any .pdb type that you like. This package
includes sample modules to parse the databases created by the built-in
applications (Address, Datebook, Mail, Memo, ToDo).
These modules were written to support ColdSync, a Palm
synchronization tool for Unix.
abc2mtex converts the "abc" music notation into MusiXTeX format. This
can help simplifying writing tunes in a TeX format.
The abc2mtex user documentation is installed as
${PREFIX:-/usr/local}/share/texmf/doc/abc2mtex/usrguide.ps, and a few
examples can be found there in another subdirectory called `examples'.
Note that the original programs `search' and `sort_in' have been
renamed to `abc_search' and `abc_sort_in', respectively, to make their
purpose clearer.
The purpose of dot2tex is to give graphs generated by Graphviz a more LaTeX
friendly look and feel. This is accomplished by converting xdot output from
Graphviz to a series of PSTricks or PGF/TikZ commands. This approach allows:
- Typesetting labels with LaTeX, allowing mathematical notation.
- Using native PSTricks and PGF/TikZ commands for drawing arrows (optional).
- Using backend specific styles to customize the output
dvips2ascii
-----------
This is a PostScript-to-ascii converter which works for PostScript
files created by dvips. Results are usually better than using ps2ascii
which comes with ghostscript.
USAGE: dvips2ascii < psfile > asciifile
dvips2ascii is a perl script, therefore it is slow. There is limited
support for accented characters (mainly german umlauts). Let me know
if you want support for other special characters.

Apsfilter is a magic printfilter, that allows you to print different
document types "automagically" without having to convert them manually
into something which is understood by your lineprinter. Apsfilter
development started in 1993, so apsfilter is now a mature and powerful
printing solution for any flavour of Unix running lpd or LPRng as line
printer scheduler. It supports the latest ghostscript version and 3rd
party printer driver like hpijs, ijs, hpdj, pcl3 and gimp-print, to
mention some.

latex2rtf is a translator program that translates LaTeX text into the
RTF format used by several textprocessors, including Microsoft Word
and Word for Windows. It was written by Fernando Dorner and Andreas
Granzer in a one-semester course in our department. It was later
updated in another one-semester course by Friedrich Polzer and Gerhard
Trisko. Ralf Schlatterbeck <ralf@zoo.priv.at> maintained and extended
it until 1998. It is currently being maintained by Georg Lehner,
Scott Pralh, and Wilfried Hennings
