MagicFilter
magicfilter is an extensible and customizable automatic printer filter.
It selects an appropriate conversion technique for the input data by
seeking for magic numbers, and then utilizing the appropriate conversion
utility.
magicfilter is primarily intended for use as the `input filter' by the
lpd print spooler. The options accepted by magicfilter are exactly the
ones passed to the input filter by lpd (unless you build it on a LPRng
system -- in that case, magicfilter accepts no options.)
Adobe Font Metrics. Describes the sizes of different postscript
types. Used by FlexFAX among others.
Utility script which allows you to interactively adjust the default printer
margin settings with the help of a special test page and saves them into a PPD
for CUPS.
A utility for printing text files (or stdin) through a terminal/terminal
emulator using ANSI escape sequences.
MusiXTeX is a set of TeX macros to typeset polyphonic, orchestral or
polyphonic music. This software is not recommended for users that are
familiar with TeX.
MusiXTeX is documented in lib/texmf/documentation/musixtex.tex. This
file must be processed with LaTeX and musixflx:
latex musixdoc
musixflx musixdoc
latex musixdoc
makeindex musixdoc.idx
latex musixdoc
makeindex musixdoc.idx
latex musixdoc
Some examples are provided in lib/texmf/documentation/musixtex.examples
for instance, to typeset the file 'traeumer.tex' type:
musixtex traeumer
musixflx traeumer
musixtex traeumer
A simple browser to allow a user to print. It uses Athena widgets.
The filter doesn't apply correctly however.
Bibcursed is a simple program to make life a little easier when using
BibTeX bibliographies. It currently provides these main functions:
- Adding references to your bibliography. This is done with prompts so
templates for the different entries (article, proceedings, etc) do
not have to be remembered. Error checking is used so that the required
fields have to be supplied, and incorrect fields cannot be entered.
New entries are inserted into the 'correct' place in the BibTeX file
- Clean and easy removal of entries
- Viewing of entries and changing of fields
- Easy searching of entries, including search by field
BIBVIEW
(graphical interface for BibTeX program)

The program "bibview" is a graphical interface for manipulating
BibTeX databases. It supports the user in making new entries,
searching for entries and moving entries from one BiB to another.
It is possible to work with more than one BiB simultaneously.
bibview is implemented with Xt and Athena Widgets.
There are six types of windows in bibview:
The main window contains menus for customizing bibview and
for working with BiBs on the file level.
The bibliography window (one for every open BiB) contains commands
for manipulating the BiB.
The list window (at most one for every open BiB) shows a list of
entries. It displays the fields author, title, type and year.
The card window (at most one for every entry) helps editing an entry.
It contains boxes for each field of the entry (according to the type).
The fields can be edited by putting the mouse cursor into the field.
Macros in fields and the symbol for concatenation ('#') are marked
with a preceding '@'.
catdvi is a program that translates TeX Device Independent (DVI) files into
readable plain text.
cdlabelgen's purpose in life is twofold:
o To be run automatically and swiftly from a shell script
and automatically generate a frontcard and a traycard
for a cd--usually data archive cd's. The traycard
(which goes behind the CD itself) is U-shaped and the
ends of the CD case bear the label of what the CD is.
o To have a minimum of dependencies--cdlabelgen only
requires perl.
cdlabelgen was designed to simplify the process of
generating labels for CD's. It originated as a program to
allow auto generation of frontcards and traycards for CD's
burned via an automated mechanism (specifically for
archiving data), but has now become popular for labelling
CD compilations of mp3's, and copies of CDs. Note that
cdlabelgen does not actually print anything--it just spits
out postscript, which you can then do with as you please.
