Unix::Passwd::File can be used to read and manipulate entries in Unix system
password files (/etc/passwd, /etc/group, /etc/group, /etc/gshadow) but can also
be told to search in custom location, for testing purposes).
This module uses a procedural (non-OO) interface. Each function in this module
open and read the passwd files once. Read-only functions like `list_users()` and
`get_max_gid()` open in read-only mode. Functions that might write to the files
like `add_user()` or `delete_group()` first lock `passwd.lock` file, open in
read+write mode and also read the files in the first pass, then seek to the
beginning and write back the files.
No caching is done so you should do your own if you need to.

dwdiff is a diff program that operates at the word level instead of the line
level. It is different from wdiff in that it allows the user to specify what
should be considered whitespace, and in that it takes an optional list of
characters that should be considered delimiters. Delimiters are single
characters that are treated as if they are words, even when there is no
whitespace separating them from preceding words or delimiters. dwdiff is
mostly commandline compatible with wdiff. Only the --autopager, --terminal
and --avoid-wraps options are not supported.
The default output from dwdiff is the new text, with the deleted and inserted
parts annotated with markers. Command line options are available to change
both what is printed, and the markers.
This plugin is intended to replace the setuidgid functionality of Mojo::Server.
It should be loaded in application startup and it will change the user and
group credentials of the process when Mojo::IOLoop is started, which occurs in
each worker process of a Mojo::Server::Prefork daemon like hypnotoad.
This allows an application to be started as root so it can bind to privileged
ports such as port 80 or 443, but run worker processes as unprivileged users.
However, if the application is not started as root, it will most likely fail to
change credentials. So, you should only set the user/group when the application
is started as root.

This is a little hack I wrote to help in setting up new Type 1 PostScript
fonts for use with X. It automatically constructs the fonts.scale file which
X uses to identify fonts in can use the current directory. Previously you
had to write this file by hand which is unacceptable if you have lots of
fonts.
The program can also generate Fontmap entries for Ghostscript (which can
then be put in the global Fontmap to speed up startup times) and it can
produce font sample sheets as well.
Please be warned that this is beta quality software and has limitations. I
think you will, however, find it useful and the bugs will go away over time
if people help me with it.
Reports of success or otherwise welcomed at the address below.

Xaw3dxft is a Xaw (Athena Widget Set) replacement that looks
three-dimensional.
Xaw3dxft is an extended version of xaw3d with support for UTF8 input
and UTF8 encoding of text, and rendering text with the Freetype
library and Truetype fonts. It should be mostly compatible with the
original xaw3d library, except for font management : everything
using the old X11 core font routines should be replaced by their
freetype equivalents.
The main advantage of using libxaw3dxft over libxaw3d or libxaw is
that all text will appear nicely antialiasedd when using truetype fonts
in the menu widgets. Also, the use of UTF8 makes it easier to
internationalize applications in arbitrary languages.
Firmware for the Broadcom BCM2033 chip based Bluetooth USB devices. To
be downloaded with bcmfw(1). The ubtbcmfw(4) and ng_ubt(4) kernel
modules need to be installed.
LASH is a session management system for JACK audio applications. It is an
implementation of a proposal that originated from this discussion. Its aim
is to allow you to have many different audio programs running at once, to
save their setup, close them down and then easily reload the setup at some
other time. LASH doesn't deal with any kind of audio data itself; it just
runs programs, deals with saving/loading (arbitrary) data and connects
different kinds of virtual audio ports together (currently JACK and ALSA
sequencer ports). It can also be used to move entire sessions between
computers, or post sessions on the Internet for download.
Mutagen is a Python module to handle audio metadata. It supports
FLAC, M4A, Musepack, MP3, Ogg FLAC, Ogg Speex, Ogg Theora, Ogg
Vorbis, MonkeysAudio, True Audio, and WavPack audio files. All
versions of ID3v2 are supported, and all standard ID3v2.4 frames
are parsed. It can read Xing headers to accurately calculate the
bitrate and length of MP3s. ID3 and APEv2 tags can be edited
regardless of audio format. It can also manipulate Ogg streams
on an individual packet/page level.
Test::Corpus::Audio::MPD will try to launch a new mpd server for
testing purposes. This mpd server will then be used during
POE::Component::Client::MPD or Audio::MPD tests.
In order to achieve this, the module will create a fake mpd.conf
file with the correct pathes (ie, where you untarred the modulE
tarball). It will then check if some mpd server is already running,
and stop it if the MPD_TEST_OVERRIDE environment variable is true
(die otherwise). Last it will run the test mpd with its newly
created configuration file.
