The GNOME On-Screen Keyboard (GOK) is an accessibility interface that gives you control of your system without needing a keyboard. The GOK makes available a hierarchical button system that enables keyboardless entry of common accelerators, and contains a clickable keyboard that sports suggested autocompletion of many common words, and even some commands. The GOK will provide an alternative interface to common commands and functions within applications that utilize the AT SPI. The GOK is designed to be usable by many alternative input methods, i.e. not a common keyboard and mouse combination.

atlc is a program designed for finding the properties (characteristic impedance, inductance per meter, capacitance per meter, velocity factor, electric field distribution) of any transmission line with 2 or 3 conductors (i.e. a normal line or coupler). It uses the finite difference method to determine these properties, and can handle any cross section. The program atlc needs to know shape of the transmission line's cross section. This cross section is stored in a data file, which happens to be a Windows bitmap file. The bitmap file is read by atlc, following which the program performs the analysis. Look in /usr/local/share/examples/atlc for some examples.

GIT is a "directory content manager" designed to handle absolutely massive projects with speed and efficiency, and the release of the 2.6.12 (and later) versions of the Linux kernel as well as more and more other projects switching to it would indicate that it does this task well. GIT falls in the category of distributed source code management tools, similar to e.g. GNU Arch or Monotone (or, in the commercial world, BitKeeper). Every GIT working directory is a full-fledged repository with full revision tracking capabilities, not dependent on network access to a central server. This version provides the necessary bindings to interact with a subversion repository.

This library provides an easy way to define command line parsers. Most users will want to use the "System.Console.CmdArgs.Implicit" module, whose documentation contains an example. * System.Console.CmdArgs.Explicit provides a way to write command line parsers for both single mode programs (most programs) and multiple mode programs (e.g. darcs or cabal). Parsers are defined by constructing a data structure. * System.Console.CmdArgs.Implicit provides a way to concisely define command line parsers, up to three times shorter than getopt. These parsers are translated into the Explicit data type. * System.Console.CmdArgs.GetOpt provides a wrapper allowing compatiblity with existing getopt parsers, mapping to the Explicit data type.

The C<IO::Capture> Module defines an abstract base class that can be used to build modules that capture output being sent on a filehandle such as STDOUT or STDERR. Several modules that come with the distribution, do just that. (I.e., Capture STDOUT and STDERR) See L<IO::Capture::Overview> for a discussion of these modules and examples of how to build a module to sub-class from C<IO::Capture> yourself. If after reading the overview, you would like to build a class from C<IO::Capture>, look here for details on the internals.

adns is a resolver library for C (and C++) programs. In contrast with the existing interfaces, gethostbyname et al and libresolv, it has the following features: * It is reasonably easy to use for simple programs which just want to translate names to addresses, look up MX records, etc. * It can be used in an asynchronous, non-blocking, manner. Many queries can be handled simultaneously. Technical note: adns requires a real nameserver like BIND or Dents running on the same system or a nearby one, which must be willing to provide `recursive service'. I.e., adns is a `stub resolver'.

Hexedit is a Curses based Hex editor. Unlike a text editor, which is used for editing text documents in the desired language, hexedit lets you edit any file as it's byte(1) for byte representation. It can even let you view and edit your fixed disks on your Linux system. This is not ideal for writing a letter or writing c code, but there are my times when this is ideal: * Editing binary executables. * Editing your fixed disks (i.e. /dev/xyz) * Checking the output of a Program's binary data file. * Any place you might use od(1) but need more power. Compare more vs less.

se is a screen oriented version of the classic UNIX text editor ed. se has a long history dating back to the early 1980s. Features - command syntax that is very familiar to users who already know ed. - full visual interface allowing you to see the text you're editing. - built-in help system which describes many of the available commands. - many configurable options which can be loaded from a .serc file. - can be run interactively or in a script via the included scriptse utility. - portable across many platforms. - will notify you if you have new/unread e-mail. - optional usage logging.

The original Panex puzzle is from the Japanese Magic Company from the 1980's. Mathematicians at Bell Laboratories estimated the number of moves to swap 2 columns of order 10 to be 27,564 <= N <= 31,537. It came in two varieties: one with a blue and a yellow pyramid of order 10 on silver tiles; in the gold version pieces of each color look alike i.e. no pyramid is drawn on them), this is a little harder. The original Tower of Hanoi puzzle is the invention of Edouard Lucas and was sold as a toy in France in 1883. The legend of 64 disks in the great temple of Benares of the god Brahma is also his invention.

Icon is a high-level programming language with extensive facilities for processing strings and structures. Icon has several novel features, including expressions that may produce sequences of results, goal-directed evaluation that automatically searches for a successful result, and string scanning that allows operations on strings to be formulated at a high conceptual level. The language is described in R. E. Griswold and M. T. Griswold, The Icon Programming Language, Prentice-Hall, Inc., Englewood Cliffs, NJ, second edition, 1990.
