GS Krab is a framework and a daemon to enable GNUstep applications to
handle the special keys on multimedia keyboards. Since this would require
special hacks to work on different platform, and since those differents
platforms work differently, I thought putting those hacks together in a
centralized daemon would be the correct and clean way to do things.

LZO is a data compression library which is suitable for data
de-/compression in real-time. This means it favours speed over
compression ratio.
LZO implements a number of algorithms with the following features:
+ Decompression is simple and *very* fast.
+ Requires no memory for decompression.
+ Compression is pretty fast.
+ Requires 64 kB of memory for compression.
+ Allows you to dial up extra compression at a speed cost in the
compressor. The speed of the decompressor is not reduced.
+ Includes compression levels for generating pre-compressed data
which achieve a quite competitive compression ratio.
+ There is also a compression level which needs only 8 kB for
compression.
+ Algorithm is thread safe.
+ Algorithm is lossless.
Audacity is a program that lets you manipulate digital audio
waveforms. In addition to letting you record sounds directly from
within the program, it imports many sound file formats, including
WAV, AIFF, AU, IRCAM, MP3, and Ogg Vorbis. It supports all
common editing operations such as Cut, Copy, and Paste, plus it will
mix tracks and let you apply plug-in effects to any part of a sound. It
also has a built-in amplitude envelope editor, a customizable
spectrogram mode and a frequency analysis window for audio
analysis applications.
Snd is a sound editor modeled loosely after Emacs and an old, sorely-missed
PDP-10 sound editor named Dpysnd. It can accommodate any number of sounds,
each with any number of channels, and can be customized and extended using
Guile, Ruby or Forth.
Included with it are some command-line utilities:
- snd-info (note: renamed from sndinfo, for this FreeBSD port) prints a
description of a sound file.
- sndplay plays a sound file.
- sndrecord records sound from a microphone.
- audinfo describes the current state of the audio hardware.

T-Coffee is a multiple sequence alignment package. Given a set of sequences
(Proteins or DNA), T-Coffee generates a multiple sequence alignment.

"Wise2 is package that is focused on comparing DNA sequences at
the level of its conceptual translation, regardless of sequencing
error and introns. This really is a rewrite of the old wisetools
package, which I wrote about 3 years ago.
It can compare a single protein or a profile HMM to a genomic DNA
sequence, and predict a gene structure. This is algorithm, called
genewise, is one of the algorithms available in Wise2. There are
other algorithms focused on EST data rather than genomic data, as
well as some other algorithm curios."

UIRD is software to control your PC via a normal remote control. It is designed
to interface with the UIRR (Universal IR Receiver), which is a piece of
hardware that you can easily build yourself.
Features:
* Embedded perl-interpreter for advanced scripting features
* Learning mode - interactively press a button on your remote and then enter
what should happpen every time you push that button
* Simple configuration-file for specifying what should happen when you push a
particular button
* Network mode sends IR-data encapsulated in UDP-packets over the network to a
remote host
JSON::Tiny is a standalone adaptation of Mojo::JSON, from the Mojolicious
framework. It has been adapted as a single-source-file module of under 350 lines
of code and core-only dependencies.
Key features include relaxed JSON handling, transparent Unicode support, speed,
small memory footprint, and a minimal code base ideal for bundling or inlining.
Mojo::JSON was chosen as a model because it is robust, minimal, and well tested.
Mojo::JSON's tests were also adapted to a design free of non-core dependencies.
mtop (MySQL top) monitors a MySQL server showing the queries which are taking
the most amount of time to complete. Features include 'zooming' in on a process
to show the complete query, 'explaining' the query optimizer information for a
query and 'killing' queries. In addition, server performance statistics,
configuration information, and tuning tips are provided.
mkill (MySQL kill) monitors a MySQL server for long running queries and kills
them after a specified time interval. Queries can be selected based on regexes
on the user, host, command, database, state and query.
This module provides methods for working with adjacency lists. The
adjacency list model is a very common way of representing a tree
structure. In this model each row in a table has a prent ID column
that references the primary key of another row in the same table.
Because of this the primary key must only be one column and is usually
some sort of integer. The row with a parent ID of 0 is the root node
and is usually the parent of all other rows. Although, there is no
limitation in this module that would stop you from having multiple
root nodes.
