Magic Rescue scans a block device for file types it knows how to recover and
calls an external program to extract them. It looks at "magic bytes" in file
contents, so it can be used both as an undelete utility and for recovering a
corrupted drive or partition. As long as the file data is there, it will
find it.
It works on any file system, but on very fragmented file systems it can only
recover the first chunk of each file. Practical experience shows, however, that
chunks of 30-50MB are not uncommon.
The HTTP_FloodControl package can be used to detect and protect a
Web site from attempts to flood it with too many requests. It also allows to
protect the site from automatic downloading many pages or files from the same
IP address, session ID or other unique identifier.
The detection of flood is determine according to a set of parameters indicating
the maximal allowed number of requests for the certain time interval. It is
possible to set several parameters at once in order to perform more effective
protection.
The package uses various storage containers (regular files, DB, MDB, MDB2) to
handle counter logs.

wave files to a standard volume level. This is useful for things like
creating mp3 mixes, where different recording levels on different
albums can cause the volume to vary greatly from song to song.

OSSP ex is a small ISO-C++ style exception handling library for use in the
ISO-C language. It allows you to use the paradigm of throwing and catching
exceptions in order to reduce the amount of error handling code without
making your program less robust.
Java has Castor, and now Perl has XML::Pastor!
If you know what Castor does in the Java world, then XML::Pastor
should be familiar to you. If you have a W3C XSD schema, you can
generate Perl classes with roundtrip XML bindings.
The WindowsError gem provides an easily accessible reference for standard
Windows API Error Codes. It allows you to do comparisons as well as direct
lookups of error codes to translate the numerical value returned by the API,
into a meaningful and human readable message.
Netrek is a multiplayer (up to 16 players) network space battle/conquest
game, with a Star Trek theme. Players can command one of several ship
types (Federation/Romulan/Klingon/Orion) and can band up in teams. The
object of the game is, basically, to control the Universe, by capturing
enemy planets, killing the enemy, etc.
NOTE: This is the "BRMH" client. It is optimized for speed, and so is
well suited to you if you have a slowish system. However, you don't get
any of the fancy extras, like colors, sound, etc.
NOTE 2: This client is distributed in binary form, because it is a
"Blessed" client, meaning that it has been approved by the "Gods of Netrek"
and has had an RSA key embedded in it. You can, of course, compile your
own client if you wish, but keep in mind that, if you do so, your client
will be "Un-Blessed" and will probably be kicked out of the official
servers. This is to prevent some unscrupulous player from hacking his/her
client to give him/her superhuman powers ("cyborgs", or "borgs").
Graph.pm is a wrapper module that allows easy generation of graphs within perl.
Currently Graph.pm supports three graphing packages, gnuplot, XRT, and Xmgrace.
These software packages must be obtained separately from this Perl module.
Information on each graphing package and it's availability is provided in the
documentation on that module.
