TkRat is a graphical Mail User Agent (MUA) which handles MIME, POP3
and IMAP4.1. It is mainly written in C, but the user interface is
done in Tcl/Tk. The following is a non-exhaustive list of the
capabilities:
* Multilingual interface (English, Swedish and Italian included)
* MIME support: text/plain, image/gif and message/rfc822
including multipart/mixed and multipart/alternate,
Quoted-printable and Base64 encoding.
* Supports MIME in headers
* Composing: (tk's text widget plus many extensions) or an
external editor of your choice.
* Message database
* Virtual folders: mbox, mh, IMAP or POP
* Message hold: suspend the composing, continued later
* Watcher: When the program is iconified it checks the mailbox
* Uses sendmail OR direct SMTP or other MA
* Supports Delivery Status Notifications - DSN ESMTP sendmail-8.7
* Supports PGP/MIME and "old-style PGP message receipt"
This is the part of X11R3's xcalc(1) utility that features a historic
Slide Rule. This is not taken to be too serious, it's merely a little
fun project for those people who have learned their basics of mathemat-
ics and logarithms by using such a nice ``pocket calculator''.
The original xcalc is from John Bradley, and Mark Rosenstein. A number
of bugs and inaccuracies fixed by Joerg Wunsch.
The Gnome Canvas is an engine for structured graphics that offers a rich
imaging model, high-performance rendering, and a powerful, high level API.
It offers a choice of two rendering back-ends, one based on GDK for
extremely fast display, and another based on Libart, a sophisticated,
antialiased, alpha-compositing engine. This widget can be used for flexible
display of graphics and for creating interactive user interface elements.
WHAT IS AMANDA?
---------------
This is a release of Amanda, the Advanced Maryland Automatic
Network Disk Archiver. Amanda is a backup system designed to archive many
computers on a network to a single large-capacity tape drive.
Here are some features of Amanda:
* written in C, freely distributable.
* built on top of standard backup software: Unix dump/restore, and
later GNU Tar and others.
* will back up multiple machines in parallel to a holding disk, blasting
finished dumps one by one to tape as fast as we can write files to
tape. For example, a ~2 Gb 8mm tape on a ~240K/s interface to a host
with a large holding disk can be filled by Amanda in under 4 hours.
* does simple tape management: will not overwrite the wrong tape.
Eagle Mode is an advanced solution for a futuristic style of
man-machine communication, in which the user can visit almost
everything simply by zooming in. It has a professional file manager,
file viewers and players for most of the common file types, a chess
game, a 3D mines game, a multi-function clock and some fractal fun,
all integrated in a virtual cosmos. By featuring a separate
popup-zoomed control view, help texts in the things they are
describing, editable bookmarks, multiple input methods, fast
anti-aliased graphics, a virtually unlimited depth of panel tree,
and by its portable C++ API, Eagle Mode aims to be a cutting edge
of zoomable user interfaces.
This module is designed to parse a configuration file in the same syntax
used by the Apache web server (see http://httpd.apache.org for
details). This allows you to build applications which can be easily
managed by experienced Apache admins. Also, by using this module,
you'll benefit from the support for nested blocks with built-in
parameter inheritance. This can greatly reduce the amount or repeated
information in your configuration files.
A good reference to the Apache configuration file format can be found
here:

At the suggestion of Linas Vepstas on the Gnu Scientific Library (GSL) list,
this GPL'd suite of random number tests will be named "Dieharder". Using a
movie sequel pun for the name is a double tribute to George Marsaglia, whose
"Diehard battery of tests" of random number generators has enjoyed years of
enduring usefulness as a test suite.
The dieharder suite is more than just the diehard tests cleaned up and given a
pretty GPL'd source face in native C: tests from the Statistical Test Suite
(STS) developed by the National Institute for Standards and Technology (NIST)
are being incorporated, as are new tests developed by rgb. Where possible,
tests are parametrized and controllable so that failure, at least, is
unambiguous.
A further design goal is to provide some indication of *why* a generator fails
a test, where such information can be extracted during the test process and
placed in usable form. For example, the bit-distribution tests should
(eventually) be able to display the actual histogram for the different bit
n-tuplets.
Dieharder is by design extensible. It is intended to be the "Swiss army knife
of random number test suites", or if you prefer, "the last suite you'll ever
ware" for testing random numbers.
