URL Link is a small extension that allows you to select a non-URL in a
mail/news message or web-page, and open it in a browser window.
For emails, it reconnects links in emails which have been broken across
several lines, and also replaces spaces with the URL character code %20
so that you may follow emailed network 'file:' links (which it auto-
detects from Windows X: or servdir references).
For web pages, it also allows you to select textual links/URLs in web
pages or edit boxes, and follow them as if they were real links. It
will always let you follow links and also analyses mailto: links.
SandUhr is an alarm clock, which is designed as a sand-glass. The program uses
the X Window System and the GNOME desktop environment. The alarm is delivered
to you by either ringing the console bell, by playing a sound file, or by
starting an external program of your choice.
The program is fully integrated into the GNOME application framework.
o Drag and drop: you may drop a color onto the timer to change the sand's visual
appearance.
o It uses the GNOME help system to provide a manual.
o Use of CORBA: The program provides a CORBA interface. So you may control the
SandUhr from within your own programs.

- Virtual filesystem with local volumes, FTP, SFTP, SMB, NFS, HTTP and
Bonjour support
- Quickly copy, move, rename files, create directories, email files...
- Browse, create and uncompress ZIP, TAR, GZip, BZip2, ISO/NRG, AR/Deb and
LST archives

The mission of the Scientific and Technical Information Exchange (STIX) font
creation project is the preparation of a comprehensive set of fonts that serve
the scientific and engineering community in the process from manuscript creation
through final publication, both in electronic and print formats. Toward this
purpose, the STIX fonts will be made available, under royalty-free license, to
anyone, including publishers, software developers, scientists, students, and the
general public.
These fonts cover all the symbols in MathML and this port can replace the former
x11-fonts/mathfonts.
The Fast Light ToolKit ("FLTK", pronounced "fulltick") is a LGPL'd C++
graphical user interface for X11.
FLTK provides modern GUI functionality without the bloat and supports
3D graphics via OpenGL and its built-in GLUT emulation.
FLTK is designed to be small and modular enough to be statically linked,
but works fine as a shared library. FLTK also includes an excellent UI
builder called FLUID that can be used to create applications in minutes.
This port tracks the development snapshot releases of FLTK.
XmHTML is a Motif widget capable of displaying HTML 3.2 documents.
Features include a very good HTML parser (which is as also available
as a Widget) with excellent document verification and repair
capabilities.
Features built in support for X11 bitmaps, pixmaps, GIF87a & GIF89a
(using a patent free LZW decoding method), animated gifs, JPEG
(baseline and progressive) and PNG (all features supported), anchor
highlighting, text justification, full HTML <FRAME> support, HTML
frames and many more. It also comes with four examples demonstrating
possible use of the XmHTML widget.
A window-matching utility, inspired by Sawfish's "Matched Windows"
option and the lack of the functionality in Metacity. Metacity lacking
window matching is not a bad thing -- Metacity is a lean window
manager, and window manipulation does not have to be a window manager
task.
Devil's Pie can be configured to detect windows as they are created,
and match the window to a set of rules. If the window matches the
rules, it can perform a series of actions on that window. For example,
I make all windows created by X-Chat appear on all workspaces, and the
main Gkrellm1 window does not appear in the pager or task list.
xmonad is a tiling window manager for X. Windows are arranged
automatically to tile the screen without gaps or overlap, maximising
screen use. All features of the window manager are accessible from the
keyboard: a mouse is strictly optional. xmonad is written and
extensible in Haskell. Custom layout algorithms, and other extensions,
may be written by the user in config files. Layouts are applied
dynamically, and different layouts may be used on each workspace.
Xinerama is fully supported, allowing windows to be tiled on several
screens.
The EAGLE Layout Editor is an easy to use, yet powerful tool for designing
printed circuit boards (PCBs). The name EAGLE is an acronym, which stands for
Easily Applicable Graphical Layout Editor.
The program consists of three main modules:
o Layout Editor
o Schematic Editor
o Autorouter
which are embedded in a single user interface. Therefore there is no need for
converting netlists between schematics and layouts.
This is a Light Freeware Edition. It has the following limitations:
o The useable board area is limited to 100 x 80 mm (4 x 3.2 inches).
o Only two signal layers can be used (Top and Bottom).
o The schematic editor can only create one sheet.
o Support is only available via email or through our forum (no fax or phone
support).
o Use is limited to non-profit applications or evaluation purposes.
Apart from these limitations the EAGLE Light Edition can do anything the
Professional Edition can do. You can even load, view and print drawings that
exceed these limits!
LIRC is a package that allows you to decode and send infra-red signals
of many (but not all) commonly used remote controls.
The most important part of LIRC is the lircd daemon that will decode
IR signals received by the device drivers and provide the information
on a socket. It will also accept commands for IR signals to be sent if
the hardware supports this. The second daemon program called lircmd
will connect to lircd and translate the decoded IR signals to mouse
movements. You can e.g. configure X to use your remote control as an
input device.
The user space applications will allow you to control your computer
with your remote control. You can send X events to applications, start
programs and much more on just one button press. The possible
applications are obvious: Infra-red mouse, remote control for your TV
tuner card or CD-ROM, shutdown by remote, program your VCR and/or
satellite tuner with your computer, etc.
