LibGnome provides the non-GUI backend for the GNOME environment.
This package contains ico, an appliction used for displaying wire-framed
rotating polyhedrons.
This package contains xlsatoms, an application for listing interned
atoms defined on server.
Xsnow displays lovely moving snowflakes on your desktop, with Santa Claus
running all over the screen.
The old X11R4 version of xmessage updated for X11R5 and renamed
to xmsg. This is convenient to use with biffer(8).
Modified at the University of Waterloo circa 1995, and in use since
then with some modifications.
Bochs is a highly portable open source IA-32 (x86) PC emulator written in
C++, that runs on most popular platforms. It includes emulation of the
Intel x86 CPU, common I/O devices, and a custom BIOS. Currently, bochs can
be compiled to emulate a 386, 486, Pentium, Pentium Pro or AMD64 CPU,
including optional MMX, SSE, SSE2 and 3DNow instructions.
Bochs is capable of running most Operating Systems inside the emulation
including Linux, DOS, Windows 95/98 and Windows NT/2000/XP.
Bochs was written by Kevin Lawton and is currently maintained by the Bochs
project.
Bochs can be compiled and used in a variety of modes, some which are still
in development. The 'typical' use of bochs is to provide complete x86 PC
emulation, including the x86 processor, hardware devices, and memory. This
allows you to run OS's and software within the emulator on your workstation,
much like you have a machine inside of a machine. For instance, let's say
your workstation is a Unix/X11 workstation, but you want to run Win'95
applications. Bochs will allow you to run Win 95 and associated software
on your Unix/X11 workstation, displaying a window on your workstation,
simulating a monitor on a PC.
pdnMesh: A finite element program
=================================
Copyright (C) 2001-2005 Sarod Yatawatta
pdnMesh is a program that can solve 2D potential problems (Poisson Equation)
and eigenvalue problems (Helmholtz Equation) using the Finite Element Method.
Common applications occur in electromagnetics, heat flow and fluid dynamics.
It can solve problems using both Nodal Based Formulation and Edge Based
(Vector) Formulation.
The features of the program are as follows.
* Automatic mesh generation according to given boundaries.
* Adaptive and Interactive mesh refinement.
* Problem solution using Cholesky Decomposition or Conjugate Gradient
Method with sparse storage.
* Eigenvalue solution using LAPACK.
* (Optionally) Eigenvalue solution using QR iteration with shifts.
* Generating plots of contours, mesh and gradient on screen.
* Generating Encapsulated Postscript plots of contours and mesh.
* Generating a data file of the mesh to be used by other solvers.
* Can import DXF files generated by CAD programs.
* GUI is available with glut and GTK/GTKGLExt. Needs OpenGL.
gqlplus is a drop-in replacement for sqlplus, an Oracle SQL client, for
UNIX platforms. The difference between gqlplus and sqlplus is command-line
editing and history, plus tablename completion. As you know if you have
used sqlplus, it is notoriously difficult to correct typing errors and
other mistakes in your SQL statements. sqlplus does give you ability to
use external editor to edit a statement, but only the last statement you
typed. gqlplus solves this problem by providing the familiar command-line
editing and history as in tcsh or bash shells, and tablename completion,
while otherwise retaining compatibility with sqlplus. Thus, no user training
is needed - simply use gqlplus instead of sqlplus. In addition,
configuration/installation is trivial: gqlplus is a single binary compiled
executable (written in C), so all you need is download it and put it anywhere
in your PATH. After that, you'll be ready to use it.
mtbl is a C library implementation of the Sorted String Table
(SSTable) data structure, based on the SSTable implementation in
the open source Google LevelDB library <https://github.com/google/leveldb>.
An SSTable is a file containing an immutable mapping of keys to
values. Keys are stored in sorted order, with an index at the end
of the file allowing keys to be located quickly.
mtbl is not a database library. It does not provide an updateable
key-value data store, but rather exposes primitives for creating,
searching and merging SSTable files. Unlike databases which use the
SSTable data structure internally as part of their data store,
management of SSTable files -- creation, merging, deletion, combining
of search results from multiple SSTables -- is left to the discretion
of the mtbl library user.
Unbound is designed as a set of modular components, so that also
DNSSEC (secure DNS) validation and stub-resolvers (that do not run as
a server, but are linked into an application) are easily possible.
Goals:
* A validating recursive DNS resolver.
* Code diversity in the DNS resolver monoculture.
* Drop-in replacement for BIND apart from config.
* DNSSEC support.
* Fully RFC compliant.
* High performance, even with validation enabled.
* Used as: stub resolver, full caching name server, resolver library.
* Elegant design of validator, resolver, cache modules.
o provide the ability to pick and choose modules.
* Robust.
* In C, open source: The BSD license.
* Smallest as possible component that does the job.
* Stub-zones can be configured (local data or AS112 zones).
Non-goals:
* An authoritative name server.
* Too many Features.
