With TPB it is possible to bind programs to the ThinkPad, Mail, Home and
Search buttons. TPB can also run a callback program on each state change with
the changed state and the new state as options. So it is possible to trigger
several actions on different events.
TPB has an on-screen display (OSD) to show volume, mute, brightness and some
other information. Furthermore TPB supports a software mixer, as some models
of the R series ThinkPads have no hardware mixer to change the volume.
Buildtool is a set of utilities which will make your programs more portable
and easier to build on any kind of Unix-like system. All the utilities are
integrated with each other, which means that they all work together. It is
completely free, licensed under the terms of the BSD license.
If you have ever used GNU automake, autoconf and/or libtool, you will find
buildtool very similar. In fact, it is an implementation of the ideas of the
GNU programs, but with a completely different design.
GNU GLOBAL is a source code tagging system that works the same way across
diverse environments, such as Emacs editor, Vi editor, Less viewer, Bash shell,
various web browsers, etc.
You can locate various objects, such as functions, macros, structs, classes, in
your source files and move there easily. It is useful for hacking a large
projects which contain many sub-directories, many #ifdef and many main()
functions. It is similar to ctags or etags, but is different from them in the
following two points:
- Independence of any editor
- Capability to treat definition and reference
ArgoUML is a powerful yet easy-to-use interactive, graphical software
design environment that supports the design, development and
documentation of object-oriented software applications.
If you are familiar with a family of software applications called
Computer Aided Software Engineering (CASE) tools then you should find
ArgoUML instantly familiar.
The users of ArgoUML are software designers & architects, software
developers, business analysts, systems analysts and other
professionals involved in the analysis, design and development of
software applications. Main features:
* Open standards: XMI, SVG and PGML
* 100% Java
* Open Source allows to extend or customize it.
* Cognitive features like: reflection-in-action, opportunistic
design, comprehension and problem solving
Parser and writer for handling sectioned config files in Haskell. The
ConfigFile module works with configuration files in a standard format
that is easy for the user to edit, easy for the programmer to work with,
yet remains powerful and flexible. It is inspired by, and compatible
with, Python's ConfigParser module. It uses files that resemble Windows
.INI-style files, but with numerous improvements.
ConfigFile provides simple calls to both read and write config files.
It is possible to make a config file parsable by this module, the Unix
shell, and make.
Libgta is a portable library that implements the Generic Tagged Array (GTA) file
format. This file format has the following features:
- GTAs can store any kind of data in multidimensional arrays
- GTAs can optionally use simple tags to store rich metadata
- GTAs are streamable, which allows direct reading from and writing to pipes,
network sockets, and other non-seekable media
- GTAs can use ZLIB, BZIP2, or XZ compression, allowing a tradeoff between
compression/decompression speed and compression ratio
- Uncompressed GTA files allow easy out-of-core data access for very large
arrays
See http://gta.nongnu.org/ for more information.
Liboil is a library of simple functions that are optimized for various CPUs.
These functions are generally loops implementing simple algorithms, such as
converting an array of N integers to floating-point numbers or multiplying
and summing an array of N numbers. Clearly such functions are candidates for
significant optimization using various techniques, especially by using
extended instructions provided by modern CPUs (Altivec, MMX, SSE, etc.).
Many multimedia applications and libraries already do similar things
internally. The goal of this project is to consolidate some of the code used
by various multimedia projects, and also make optimizations easier to use by
a broad range of applications.
LMDBG is a collection of small tools for collecting and analyzing
the logs of malloc/realloc/memalign/free function calls. Unlike many
others, LMDBG does not provide any way to detect overruns of the
boundaries of malloc() memory allocations, as this is not the goal.
Like most other malloc debuggers, LMDBG allows detecting memory leaks
and double frees. However, unlike others, LMDBG generates full
stacktraces and separates the logging process from analysis, thus
allowing you to analyze an application on a per-module basis.
Moose is an extension of the Perl 5 object system.
Another object system!?!?
Yes, I know there has been an explosion recently of new ways to build
objects in Perl 5, most of them based on inside-out objects, and other
such things. Moose is different because it is not a new object system
for Perl 5, but instead an extension of the existing object system.
Moose is built on top of Class::MOP, which is a metaclass system for
Perl 5. This means that Moose not only makes building normal Perl 5
objects better, but it also provides the power of metaclass programming.
Oozie is a workflow scheduler system to manage Apache Hadoop jobs.
Oozie Workflow jobs are Directed Acyclical Graphs (DAGs) of actions.
Oozie Coordinator jobs are recurrent Oozie Workflow jobs triggered by time
(frequency) and data availabilty.
Oozie is integrated with the rest of the Hadoop stack supporting several types
of Hadoop jobs out of the box (such as Java map-reduce, Streaming map-reduce,
Pig, Hive, Sqoop and Distcp) as well as system specific jobs (such as
Java programs and shell scripts).
Oozie is a scalable, reliable and extensible system.
