Kalzium is your digital replacement for the periodic table on paper.
It is a program that visualizes the periodic table of elements (PSE)
and includes basic information about all common elements in the PSE.
It has gained much more functions over time.
FEATURES
- Versatile overview of all important data from the elements like
melting points, electron affinity, electron negativity, electron
configuration, radii, mass, ionisation energy.
- Tool to visualize the spectral lines of each element.
- Different colored views for the PSE: separation of the different
blocks, year simulator, temperature simulator.
- Molecular weight calculator.
- An isotope table.
- 3D molecule editor, with a load and save functionality.
- An equation solver for stoichiometric problems.
- Filetype conversion for different types of chemical programs.
- Tool to produce a comprehesive list of all risk and safety
statements.
NCrypt is intended to give you security in an insecure environment.
If you are wanting to encrypt files (particularly on a multi-user
system where you don't have root), wishing to hide your activites
from prying eyes, and want to "cover your tracks", then NCrypt is
for you. It is a symmetrical file encryptor/decryptor that gives
you the choice of the top three candidates for AES as the encryption
algorithm (Rijndael, Serpent, Twofish), tries to minimize exposure
of the plaintext password in memory, and can safely erase the
plaintext version from the hard drive. It compiles without any extra
crypto libraries, making it ideal for systems where you just have
a compiler and basic libraries (such as an ISP's shell server).
Spinner is a small program that displays a little "spinning" ASCII
character in the top left corner of your terminal. To make this effect
it cycles through punctuation marks like this " - \ | / - \ | / ... "
(try it to see). By default the character is drawn in inverse video
(or your terminal's equivalent). But you can turn this off with the -i
switch. It supports any terminal capable of handling VT100 style escape codes.
Spinner is useful for keeping telnet and ssh links from dropping due to
inactivity. Many firewalls, and some ISPs drop connections when they are
perceived as idle. By having spinner running the server is constantly
sending a tiny amount of data over the link, preserving the connection.
Thus (for search engines) Spinner is an anti-dle, timeout preventing,
background daemon process for Unix variants including Linux.

The Petal::Utils package contains commonly used Petal modifiers (or
plugins), and bundles them with an easy-to-use installation interface. By
default, a set of modifiers are installed into Petal when you use this
module. You can change which modifiers are installed by naming them after
the use statement:
# use the default set:
use Petal::Utils qw( :default );
# use the date set of modifiers:
use Petal::Utils qw( :date );
# use only named modifiers, plus the debug set:
use Petal::Utils qw( UpperCase Date :debug );
# don't install any modifiers
use Petal::Utils qw();
You'll find a list of plugin sets throughout this document. You can also
get a complete list by looking at the variable:
%Petal::Utils::PLUGIN_SET;
For details on how the plugins are installed, see the "Advanced Petal"
section of the Petal documentation.
Greeking is the use of random letters or marks to show the overall appearance
of a printed page without showing the actual text. Greeking is used to make
it easy to judge the overall appearance of a document without being distracted
by the meaning of the text.
This is a module is for quickly generating varying meaningless text from any
source to create this illusion of the content in systems.
This module was created to quickly give developers simulated content to fill
systems with simulated content. Instead of static Lorem Ipsum text, by using
randomly generated text and optionally varying word sources, repetitive and
monotonous patterns that do not represent real system usage is avoided.
The Translate Toolkit is a set of software and documentation designed
to help make the lives of localizers both more productive and less
frustrating. The software includes programs to covert localization
formats to the common PO format and programs to check and manage PO
files. The documentation includes guides on using the tools, running a
localization project and how to localize various projects from
OpenOffice.org to Mozilla.
At its core the software contains a set of classes for handling various
localization storage formats: DTD, properties, OpenOffice.org GSI/SDF,
CSV and of course PO and XLIFF. It also provides scripts to convert
between these formats.
Also part of the Toolkit are Python programs to create word counts,
merge translations and perform various checks on PO and XLIFF files.
Elasticsearch DSL is a high-level library whose aim is to help with writing
and running queries against Elasticsearch. It is built on top of the official
low-level client (elasticsearch-py).
It provides a more convenient and idiomatic way to write and manipulate
queries. It stays close to the Elasticsearch JSON DSL, mirroring its terminology
and structure. It exposes the whole range of the DSL from Python either directly
using defined classes or a queryset-like expressions.
It also provides an optional wrapper for working with documents as Python
objects: defining mappings, retrieving and saving documents, wrapping the
document data in user-defined classes.
To use the other Elasticsearch APIs (eg. cluster health) just use the underlying
client.
Trac uses a minimalistic approach to web-based software project management.
Our mission; to help developers write great software while staying out of
the way. Trac should impose as little as possible on a team's established
development process and policies.
All aspects of Trac have been designed with one single goal, to simplify
tracking and communication of software issues, enhancements and monitoring
overall progress.
What is Trac?
* An integrated system for managing software projects
* An enhanced wiki
* A flexible web-based issue tracker
* An interface to the Subversion revision control system
At the core of Trac lies an integrated wiki and issue/bug database. Using
wiki markup, all objects managed by Trac can directly link to other
issues/bug reports, code changesets, documentation and files.
Ever tried logging Apache page serve times using '%D'? You'll have discovered
that they aren't a good index of your server's performance, because they depend
more on the client's connection speed, computer and browsing habits than on the
speed of your server.
mod_log_firstbyte is a module for Apache 2.0 which allows you to log the time
between each request being read and the first byte of the response served.
Unlike the total serve time, this index of performance tells you how long Apache
actually spent loading the file off the disk or executing your script: it's
independent of client connection speed. It makes a great performance benchmark
for your server!
The crawl utility starts a depth-first traversal of the web at the
specified URLs. It stores all JPEG images that match the configured
constraints. Crawl is fairly fast and allows for graceful termination.
After terminating crawl, it is possible to restart it at exactly
the same spot where it was terminated. Crawl keeps a persistent
database that allows multiple crawls without revisiting sites.
The main reason for writing crawl was the lack of simple open source
web crawlers. Crawl is only a few thousand lines of code and fairly
easy to debug and customize.
Some of the main features:
- Saves encountered JPEG images
- Image selection based on regular expressions and size contrainsts
- Resume previous crawl after graceful termination
- Persistent database of visited URLs
- Very small and efficient code
- Supports robots.txt
