libp0f is the autotools version of p0f-2.x with support for 3rd-party
linkage. libp0f splits the core p0f functionality from the p0f-2.x

What is BottleRocket?
BottleRocket is a command-line interface for Unix systems to use the
FireCracker kit. It is easy to use, has all of the major (non-gui)
functionality of the Windows interface, is easy to call from scripts
and the backend code is made to be easily linked into other programs.
What is the X10 FireCracker kit?
The X10 Firecracker kit is a simple wireless home automation system,
consisting of a lamp module, an appliance module/radio receiver, a
hand held wireless transmitter and a wireless transmitter that plugs
into a standard RS-232 serial port. Using either the handheld
transmitter or the serial port transmitter, a user can turn on or off
any of up to 256 appliances, and brighten/dim any of those that happen
to be lamps and plugged into the special lamp modules. Each appliance
to be controlled must be plugged into its own module, and each module
is set (by turning dials on the front) to a unique address by which it
is identified.
Celestia is a free real-time space simulation that lets you experience our
universe in three dimensions. Unlike most planetarium software, Celestia
doesn't confine you to the surface of the Earth. You can travel throughout
the solar system, to any of over 100,000 stars, or even beyond the galaxy.
All travel in Celestia is seamless; the exponential zoom feature lets you
explore space across a huge range of scales, from galaxy clusters down to
spacecraft only a few meters across. A "point-and-goto" interface makes it
simple to navigate through the universe to the object you want to visit.
Celestia is expandable. It comes with large catalog of stars, galaxies,
planets, moons, asteroids, comets, and spacecraft. If that's not enough,
you can download dozens of easy to install add-ons with more objects.
Xastir is an APRS client program that uses amateur radio and internet
services to convey GPS mapping, weather, and positional data in a

package.
This is another branch of xpostit development tree. Allows to fill
your screen with virtual PostIt (R) notes. They are saved into files.
