Xcmd is a front-end for starting programs under X11.
You can tell xcmd to look for a window with a specific
class, resource name, or title string (using the
`--find-<property>' options); if it finds one or more,
xcmd will `raise' them, otherwise it will run the
command you specify. You can tell xcmd to run commands
that create their own windows (using `--xcmd'), or to
run commands inside a terminal window (using `--cmd')
with various options.

Perl bindings to the 3.x series of the gtk+ toolkit. This module
allows you to write graphical user interfaces in a Perlish and
object-oriented way, freeing you from the casting and memory
management in C, yet remaining very close in spirit to original
API. Find out more about gtk+ at http://www.gtk.org.
The gtk+ reference manual is also a handy companion when writing
Gtk3 programs in Perl: http://developer.gnome.org/gtk3/stable/. The
Perl bindings follow the C API very closely, and the C reference
documentation should be considered the canonical source.
Blackbox is the fast, lightweight window manager for the X Window System you
have been looking for, without all those annoying dependencies. It is built
with C++ and contains completely original code (even though the graphics
implementation is similar to that of Window Maker).
Blackbox is written to the NetWM specification, which allows integration with
modern desktop managers including KDE and Gnome.
The port also provides root window changing tools, bsetroot and bsetbg, that
can be installed alone, without the window manager and accompanying files.

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
application. The p0f library is installed as libp0f.so so
p0f2 and libp0f can co-exist independantly.
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.
