Xchomp is a game closely patterned after Pac-Man(tm) that runs under the
X window system. I've tried to make the game as close as possible to the
original Pac-Man. However, I have not seen a Pac-Man arcade machine for
years, so all the elements of the game have been recalled from memory.
The original puzzle has 9 triangles per face (size = 3) and
has period 3 turning (i.e. the face or points turn in 120 degree
intervals). The puzzle was designed by Uwe Meffert and called
the Pyraminx. This has 2^5*3^8*6!/2 or 75,582,720 different
combinations.
Another puzzle Senior Pyraminx 3x3x3 exists only on paper, it
has period 2 turning (i.e. edges turn with 180 degree intervals)
but the corners would fall off unless it had some tricky
mechanism. (This may be the same as the Master Pyraminx which
has 446,965,972,992,000 different combinations).
Another puzzle (which was not widely distributed), the Junior
Pyraminx (and similarly the Junior Pyraminx Star, a octahedron
formed by two tetrahedra, this has 7!*3^6 or 3,674,160 different
combinations), has 4 triangles (size = 2) per face and at the
time I designed this computer puzzle thought that it had only
period 2 turning (i.e the edges rotate). It turns out the puzzle
has a period 4 turning (edges turn with 90 degree intervals)
which makes it analogous to the 2x2x2 Rubik's cube. This puzzle
makes various non-tetrahedral shapes. The puzzle contained here
has no period 4 turning flexability.
Xrobots puts you into a world of evil robots (but in an X window, of course).
It's your intellect against the robots, who have numbers on their side.
Fortunately for you, these robots have a bad habit of crashing into each other,
destroying themselves and temporarily improving your chances of survival.

This software interprets Infocom text-adventure games. It requires the
X Window System. This port does not install any games; you can install
them yourself if you own the games, or you can legally obtain the Zork

Included in this package are:
4va:
4va is a fourth dimensional visualization program for X11.
It takes as input a file describing an object in up to 4 dimensions
and tumbles it in a window according to rotation values given on the
command line.
Ctorus, cutctorus, 4vdmake:
These three programs are object file generators for 4va.

Kinput2 is an Japanese text input server for X11 applications. A
client that require kana-kanji conversion service for Japanese text
sends a request to kinput2. Kinput2 receives the request, does
kana-kanji conversion, and sends the converted text back to the
client.
Skkinput is an input method for X11 applications that want Japanese
text input.
A client that wants kana-kanji conversion service for Japanese text
sends a request to skkinput. Skkinput receives the request, does
kana-kanji conversion, and sends converted text back to the client.
From version 3.0, skkinput becomes an emacs-lisp like interpreter,
and uses skk.el in skk-8.6 as an conversion engine.
