This is a program to help manage many of the XKB features of X window. This includes such features as MouseKeys, AccessX, StickyKeys, BounceKeys, and SlowKeys. It also includes a perl/tk gui program to help with MouseKeys acceleration management. Stephen Montgomery-Smith stephen@math.missouri.edu

XScreenSaver.App is a simple WindowMaker dockapp that allows you to lock your screen (using XScreenSaver by default) with a single left-click of the mouse. The dockapp also allows you to configure XScreenSaver by right-clicking on the app. The left- and right-click behaviors are configurable, so this app can work with applications other than XScreenSaver.

xcoloredit provides a graphical method of mixing the three primary colors available on a colour workstation. This mixing can be done using the Red, Green and Blue slider controls on the left of the window or using the Hue, Satu- ration and Value slider controls on the right.

Cinnamon is a Linux desktop which provides advanced innovative features and a traditional user experience. The desktop layout is similar to Gnome 2. The underlying technology is forked from Gnome Shell. The emphasis is put on making users feel at home and providing them with an easy to use and comfortable desktop experience.

gmrun is a very featureful GTK+-2 Run box. Its features include: * Tilde completion * Completion for separate words * Cycleable command history * Configuration file in ${PREFIX}/share/gmrun/gmrunrc, which can be copied to ~/.gmrunrc * Can spawn commands in a terminal * Intelligent URL handling

Gnome-Pie is a circular application launcher. It is made of several pies, each consisting of multiple slices. The user presses a key stroke which opens the desired pie. By activating one of its slices, applications may be launched, key presses may be simulated or files can be opened.

wdm -- WINGs Display Manager wdm was initially called DisplayMaker. This is a modification of XFree86's xdm package for graphically handling authentication and system login. Most of xdm has been preserved (XFree86 3.3.2.3) with the Login interface based on a WINGs implementation using Tom Rothamel's "external greet" interface.

rzip is a compression program, similar in functionality to gzip or bzip2, but able to take advantage from long distance redundancies in files, which can sometimes allow rzip to produce much better compression ratios than other programs. The principal advantage of rzip is that it has an effective history buffer of 900 Mbyte. This means it can find matching pieces of the input file over huge distances compared to other commonly used compression programs. The gzip program by comparison uses a history buffer of 32 kbyte and bzip2 uses a history buffer of 900 kbyte. The second advantage of rzip over bzip2 is that it is usually faster. This may seem surprising at first given that rzip uses the bzip2 library as a backend (for handling the short-range compression), but it makes sense when you realise that rzip has usually reduced the data a fair bit before handing it to bzip2, so bzip2 has to do less work.

libfishsound provides a simple programming interface for decoding and encoding audio data using the Xiph.org codecs (FLAC, Speex and Vorbis). libfishsound by itself is designed to handle raw codec streams from a lower level layer such as UDP datagrams. When these codecs are used in files, they are commonly encapsulated in Ogg to produce Ogg FLAC, Speex and Ogg Vorbis files. libfishsound is a wrapper around the existing codec libraries and provides a consistent, higher-level programming interface. It has been designed for use in a wide variety of applications; it has no direct dependencies on Ogg encapsulation, though it is most commonly used in conjunction with liboggz to decode or encode FLAC, Speex or Vorbis audio tracks in Ogg files, including Ogg Theora and Annodex.

Vorbis is a general purpose audio and music encoding format contemporary to MPEG-4's AAC and TwinVQ, the next generation beyond MPEG audio layer 3. Unlike the MPEG sponsored formats (and other proprietary formats such as RealAudio G2 and Windows' flavor of the month), the Vorbis CODEC specification belongs to the public domain. All the technical details are published and documented, and any software entity may make full use of the format without royalty or patent concerns. This package contains: - libvorbis, a BSD-license software implementation of the Vorbis specification by the Xiphophorus company. - libvorbisfile, a BSD-license convenience library built on Vorbis designed to simplify common uses. - libvorbisenc, a BSD-license library that provides a simple, programmatic encoding setup interface.
