Port for libk8055 to provide support for the Velleman K8055 USB Experiment Board. Package also include k8055 command line tool. Now you can use it with shells scripts/cron jobs.

A high-level IO library that provides validation, type conversion, and more for command-line interfaces. HighLine also includes a complete menu system that can crank out anything from simple list selection to complete shells with just minutes of work.

Ledit is a line editor, allowing to use control commands like in emacs or in shells (bash, tcsh). To be used with interactive commands. It is written in Ocaml and Camlp5 and uses the library unix.cma.

The tclreadline package makes the gnu readline available to the scripting language tcl. The primary purpose of the package is to facilitate the interactive script development by the means of word and file name completion as well as history expansion (well known from shells like bash).

Kpathsea is a library to do path searching. It is used in the Web2C implementation of TeX and friends. The library's fundamental purpose is to return a filename from a list of directories specified by the user, similar to what shells do when looking up program names to execute.

gksu is a Gtk+ frontend to /bin/su. It supports login shells and preserving environment when acting as a su frontend. It is useful to menu items or other graphical programs that need to ask a user's password to run another program as another user.

Screen is a full-screen window manager that multiplexes a physical terminal between several processes (typically interactive shells). Each virtual terminal provides the functions of a DEC VT100 terminal and, in addition, several control functions from the ANSI X3.64 (ISO 6429) and ISO 2022 standards (e.g. insert/delete line and support for multiple character sets). There is a scrollback history buffer for each virtual terminal and a copy-and-paste mechanism that allows moving text regions between windows.

zogftw makes using multiple geli-encrypted single-vdev ZFS pools for backups more convenient, mainly by automating creation, import and export of such pools and by synchronizing datasets without the user having to manually specify the names of the snapshots that should be sent. geli passphrases can be stored gpg-encrypted which allows importing several pools in a row without having to specify each passphrase manually. zogftw is extendable in shell. It can be sourced from other shell scripts or interactive shells.

----------- What is it? ----------- nmh (new MH) is an electronic mail handling system - a MUA (Mail User Agent) package for end-users to handle their e-mail. It was originally based on the package MH-6.8.3, and is intended to be a (mostly) compatible drop-in replacement for MH. nmh consists of a collection of fairly simple single-purpose programs to send, receive, save, retrieve, and manipulate e-mail messages. Since nmh is not a single comprehensive program, you may freely intersperse nmh commands with other shells commands, or write custom scripts which utilize these commands in flexible ways.
