debootstrap is a tool which will install a Debian base system into
a subdirectory of another, already installed system. It doesn't require an
installation CD, just access to a Debian repository.
In FreeBSD, you can use debootstrap to install Debian into
a subdirectory of your existing FreeBSD installation (i386 or amd64)
and then run Debian GNU/kFreeBSD (i386 or amd64) or Debian Linux (i386)
in a jail or chroot.
Ansible is a radically simple configuration-management, deployment,
task-execution, and multinode orchestration framework.
The zisofs filesystem is an extension to the ISO9660 filesystem that allows
files, on a file-by-file basis, to be stored compressed and decompressed in
real time. The zisofs filesystem is supported by recent versions of Linux
(2.4.14 or later).
mkzftree - creates a zisofs/RockRidge compressed file tree

Arc is a flat theme with transparent elements for GTK 3, GTK 2 and
Gnome-Shell which supports GTK 3 and GTK 2 based desktop environments like
Gnome, Unity, Budgie, Pantheon, XFCE, Mate, etc.
Pmw is a framework for building high-level compound widgets, or
megawidgets, constructed using other widgets as component parts. It
promotes consistent look and feel within and between graphical
applications, is highly configurable to your needs and is easy to use.
Pmw consists of:
* A few base classes, providing a framework for building megawidgets.
* A library of flexible and extensible megawidgets built on the base
classes, such as ButtonBox, ComboBox, MessageDialog, etc.
The interface to Pmw megawidgets is similar to basic Tk widgets, so it
is easy for developers to include both megawidgets and basic Tk
widgets in their graphical applications. In addition, all Pmw
megawidgets may themselves be extended, using either inheritance or
composition.
The use of the Pmw framework and megawidgets replaces common widget
combinations with higher level abstractions. This simplifies code,
making it more readable and maintainable and more easily modifiable.
The ability to extend Pmw megawidgets enables developers to create new
megawidgets based on previous work.
XBellD is a small daemon for replacing the standard X Window
System terminal bell with a more interesting set of sounds.
This is useful for systems where the terminal bell is handled
by the "PC Speaker," or where different sounds are desired for
different classes of X clients.
XBellD works by intercepting terminal bell requests on the
server side, and then playing user-specified sounds through a
PCM capable soundcard. The resource class of the client making
a terminal bell request is used to match a corresponding sound
file which should be played when such a request is made.
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.
Tagged Message Delivery Agent (TMDA) is designed to significantly reduce the
amount of spam (junk-mail) you receive. TMDA strives to be more effective,
yet less time-consuming than traditional spam filters.
The technical countermeasures used by TMDA to thwart spam include:
- whitelists: accept mail from known, trusted senders
- blacklists: refuse mail from undesired senders
- challenge/response: allows unknown senders which aren't on the whitelist or
blacklist the chance to confirm that their message is legitimate (non-spam)
- tagged addresses: special-purpose e-mail addresses such as time-dependent
addresses, or addresses which only accept certain kinds of communication.
These increase the transparency of TMDA for unknown senders by allowing them
to safely circumvent the challenge/response system.
TMDA can also be used as a general purpose local mail delivery agent to filter,
sort, deliver and dispose of incoming mail.
mreport is a simple C program that processes
/var/log/maillog (or whatever you specify as
the mail log). What is probably its only
limitation is that it can only process sendmail
logs. Nevertheless, it makes very nice summaries
of the mail logs, and can be useful for system
administrators that are tired of poring through
sendmail's copious logs trying to figure out
how well their mail server configuration is
holding up.
