LGrind is a descendant of the Unix utility vgrind. It is used to produce a beautified version of your source code using LaTeX. Unlike other packages this is not pure TeX but an external preprocessor. You run e.g. lgrind example.c > example.tex latex example.tex to get a complete listing. Options for producing includable files and pro- cessing embedded listings in LaTeX texts are provided.

This port contains the programming reference for print/libgnomeprint.

The library "libotf" provides the following facilites: o Read Open Type Layout Tables from OTF file. Currently these tables are supported; head, name, cmap, GDEF, GSUB, and GPOS. o Convert a Unicode character sequence to a glyph code sequence by using the above tables. The combination of libotf and the FreeType library (Ver. 2) realizes CTL (complex text layout) by OpenType fonts.

[ excerpt from developer's web site ] Texinfo is the official documentation format of the GNU project. It was invented by Richard Stallman and Bob Chassell many years ago, loosely based on Brian Reid's Scribe and other formatting languages of the time. It is used by many non-GNU projects as well. Texinfo uses a single source file to produce output in a number of formats, both online and printed (dvi, html, info, pdf, xml, etc.). This means that instead of writing different documents for online information and another for a printed manual, you need write only one document. And when the work is revised, you need revise only that one document. The Texinfo system is well-integrated with GNU Emacs.

Convert PFB files to the PFA format.

pkipplib is a Python library which can prepare IPP requests with the help of a somewhat high level API. These requests can then be sent to an IPP printer or print server (e.g. CUPS). This library can also parse IPP answers received, and create high level Python objects from them.

pkpgcounter is a generic Page Description Language parser which can either count the number of pages or compute the percent of ink coverage needed to print various types of documents. It currently supports the following file types: - PostScript (both DSC compliant and binary) - PDF - PCL3/4/5 - PCLXL (aka PCL6) - DVI - TIFF - ESC/P2 - OpenDocument (ISO/IEC DIS 26300) - Zenographics ZjStream - Samsung QPDL (aka SPL2) - Samsung SPL1 The five latter ones, as well as some TIFF documents, are currently only supported in page counting mode.

Philip's Music Writer (PMW) is a computer program for high quality music typesetting. Originally written for Acorn RISC OS computers, there is now a version that runs on Unix and Unix-like systems. PMW operates by reading an input file containing an encoded description of the music; such a file can be constructed using any text editor or word processor. The music encoding is very straightforward and compact, and quick to enter. PMW comes with a PostScript outline font that contains all the musical shapes (notes, rests, accidentals, bar lines, clefs, etc.) that it requires. There is a man page for the command line options, and a 200-page manual that is distributed as a PDF file.

Pscal is a utility for generating Postscript calendars ready for printing. It can optionally show the phases of the moon for either hemisphere.
