Module::Manifest is a simple utility module created originally for use in Module::Inspector. It allows you to load the MANIFEST file that comes in a Perl distribution tarball, examine the contents, and perform some simple tasks. Granted, the functionality needed to do this is quite simple, but the Perl distribution MANIFEST specification contains a couple of little idiosyncracies, such as line comments and space-separated inline comments.

Best program ever. This program is a wrapper, it will exec whatever arguments it's given and if the program returns a non-zero exit status or terminates abnormally it will prompt the user to run the program again. It's best used when debugging a large build like so: make CC="replay cc" Then if cc bombs you don't have to restart make, you can just fix your source file and resume your build.

Dungeon Crawl Stone Soup is a fun, free rogue-like game of exploration and treasure-hunting in dungeons filled with dangerous and unfriendly monsters in a quest for the mystifyingly fabulous Orb of Zot. Dungeon Crawl Stone Soup is a variant of Linley's Dungeon Crawl that's openly developed and invites participation from the Crawl community. This port comes with two interfaces: games/stonesoup - the traditional tty interfaced games/stonesoup-sdl - the fancy SDL interface

This module implements a simple game-tree system for the computer to play against the user in a game of Alak. You can just play the game for fun; or you can use this module as a starting point for understanding game trees (and implementing smarter strategy -- the module's current logic is fairly simple-minded), particularly after reading my Perl Journal #18 article on trees, which discusses this module's implementation of game trees as an example of general tree-shaped data structures.

Poppy is a small perl script that allows you to perform simple tasks on a POP3 or IMAP server. It is of most use in a "limited resources environment" whether thats low disk space, slow internet connection, or no graphical environment. Poppy will individually show the mail headers along with the message's size of each message on the mail server and then allow you to read, delete, reply, or perform other tasks on that message.

SuiteSparse is a set of sparse matrices libraries. It contains: * AMD: symmetric approximate minimum degree * BTF: permutation to block triangular form (beta) * CCOLAMD: constrained column approximate minimum degree * COLAMD: column approximate minimum degree * CHOLMOD: sparse supernodal Cholesky factorization and update/downdate * KLU: sparse LU factorization, for circuit simulation (beta) * LDL: a simple LDL^T factorization * UMFPACK: sparse multifrontal LU factorization * UFconfig: common configuration for all of the above * CSparse: a concise sparse matrix package * CXSparse: and extended version of CSparse

Spread is a toolkit and daemon that provide multicast and group communications support to applications across local and wide area networks. Spread is designed to make it easy to write groupware, networked multimedia, reliable server, and collaborative work applications. Spread consists of a library that user applications are linked with, a binary daemon which runs on each computer that is part of the processor group, and various utility and demonstration programs.

read-edid is a pair of tools (originally by John Fremlin) for reading the EDID from a monitor. It should work with most monitors made since 1996, assuming the video card supports the standard read commands (most do). Two tools are provided: get-edid, which gets the raw EDID information from the monitor, and parse-edid, which turns the raw binary information into a xorg.conf-compatible monitor section (or xrandr-compatible modelines).

This distribution contains two programs, xrsh and xrlogin. Xrsh is designed to allow you to start an X client on a remote machine with the window displayed on the current server's $DISPLAY. It has many options that give you the ability to propagate environment variables (including DISPLAY) to the remote system and works with various types of X server access control including xauth and xhost. Xrlogin opens a local xterm window and runs rlogin or telnet to connect to a remote machine.

libb64 is a library of ANSI C routines for fast encoding/decoding of data into and from a Base64-encoded format. C++ wrappers are included, as well as the source code for standalone encoding and decoding executables. Base64 uses a subset of displayable ASCII characters, and is therefore a useful encoding for storing binary data in a text file, such as XML, or sending binary data over text-only communication channels.
