Who doesn't remember the first time they learned to copy and paste, and
generated an exponentially growing text document? Yes, that's right,
clipboards are magical.
With Clipboard.pm, this magic is now trivial to access,
cross-platformly, from your Perl code.
Terminal is a modern terminal emulator for the Unix/Linux desktop,
primarily for the Xfce desktop environment. It's a lightweight emulator
based on the VTE widget, easy to use and provides an optional drop-down
window.
xidle uses the XScreenSaver(3) extension to receive inactivity events
when a timeout is specified, running a specific program after the elapsed
time. xidle also monitors the very corner of the given position for
pointer activity and runs a program if the pointer sits there for more
than the specified number of seconds. This behavior is always present,
whether -timeout is specified or not.
Eterm is a color vt102 terminal emulator intended as a replacement for
xterm. It is designed with a Freedom of Choice philosophy, leaving as
much power, flexibility, and freedom as possible in the hands of the
user. It is designed to look good and work well, but takes a
feature-rich approach rather than one of minimalism while still
maintaining speed and efficiency.
Gtk Copy-paste Buffer
It is something like 'xcb'. It has multiple buttons to store strings of paste
buffer. You click a button to put the content into paste-buffer/clipboard.
Advantages over xcb:
- Use right button to assign the button as a snooper. It is more
straightforward than xcb.
- It has tool-tip to display the complete content.
- It is written in Gtk, so by default it has i18 display capability.
- It can watch the clipboard of gtk (mozilla).
- History of changes of paste buffer
- By default, it is sticky on Gnome/Gtk. You can also specify option to turn
window decoration off (borderless). No more tedius desktop setup to install
it.
xpad is a sticky note application written using GTK+ 3.0 that strives to be
simple, fault-tolerant, and customizable. xpad consists of independent pad
windows; each is basically a text box in which notes can be written. Despite
being called xpad, all that is needed to run or compile it is the GTK+ 3.0
libraries. Here is a list of major features in the current xpad current
release:
* GTK+ 3.0 powered text view.
* Fault tolerant. All information is kept on the hard drive, not memory.
* xpad is very customizable. The color scheme (text, background, and window
borders) and the font can be changed.
* A customizable toolbar puts the most frequently used commands at your
fingertips.
* Support for the X session management protocol.
* Support for the www.freedesktop.org system tray proposal.

Xoids is an asteroids-type game written for X in my (spare) time. The
game was originally developed on a Sun4 system while on an oceanographic
research cruise. It's by no means finished.
While Xoids is strikingly similar to the original Asteroids game,
there are some differences:
o Full color pixmaps
o One or Two Player (duel and cooperative) modes
o Can bounce off asteroids instead of dying (if going slow)
o Shots have relative speed, and impart intertia to the ship
o Asteroids have appropriate "masses": realistic physics
o The alien (called the Slurb) tracks players rather than
flying around aimlessly
o Thrusting and using hyperspace can overheat your engines (boom!)
o Co-op mode links players together via a flexible space-cable
