SKY icons are a new 48x48 icon theme for KDE 3.x.x. Folders and
mime icons aren't based over default KDE icons. It looks clean,
pretty, simple and not boring. This is iconset is completely made
from scratch with the Gimp. I'm not supported from anyone so I do
it only in the free-time.
Regression.pm is a multivariate linear regression package.
That is, it estimates the c coefficients for a line-fit of the type
y= c(0)*x(0) + c(1)*x1 + c(2)*x2 + ... + c(k)*xk
given a data set of N observations, each with k independent x variables
and one y variable. Naturally, N must be greater than k---and preferably
considerably greater. Any reasonable undergraduate statistics book will
explain what a regression is. Most of the time, the user will provide a
constant ('1') as x(0) for each observation in order to allow the
regression package to fit an intercept.
Sch is a pure Java implementation of SSH2. JSch allows you to connect
to an sshd server and use port forwarding, X11 forwarding, file
transfer, etc., and you can integrate its functionality into your
own Java programs. JSch is licensed under BSD style license.
- Why JSch?
Our intension in developing this stuff is to enable users of our
pure java X servers, WiredX and WeirdX, to enjoy secure X sessions.
Our efforts have mostly targeted the SSH2 protocol in relation to
X window system and X11 forwarding. Of course, we are also interested
in adding other functionality - port forward, file transfer, terminal
emulation, etc.
It often happens that you have non-Roman text data in Unicode, but you
can't display it -- usually because you're trying to show it to a user
via an application that doesn't support Unicode, or because the fonts
you need aren't accessible. You could represent the Unicode characters
as "???????" or "\15BA\15A0\1610...", but that's nearly useless to the
user who actually wants to read what the text says.
What Text::Unidecode provides is a function, unidecode(...) that takes
Unicode data and tries to represent it in US-ASCII characters.
GLE is a graphics language that produces PostScript, EPS, PDF, PNG,
or JPG ouput from a simple script file.
GLE is a full featured scripting language that includes variables,
subroutines, logic control, looping, a graphing tool, and more
to produce high quality output. It has a full range of facilities
for producing publication-quality graphs, diagrams, posters and slides.
GLE provides LaTeX quality fonts together with a flexible graphics
module, which allows the user to specify any feature of a graph
(down to the line width of the subticks, for example).
GLText is a portable font rendering library for C++ OpenGL applications. It
uses FreeType2 to read and render high-quality TrueType fonts with a minimal
footprint. With just a few easy lines of C++, you can add gorgeously
rendered text to your graphical applications.
GLText is an open source project licensed under the LGPL. Basically this means
that you can use and link your application with it regardless of what license
your application uses. If you make changes to GLText, however,
you must make those changes open source under the LGPL.
Written with portablility in mind, GLText works on Windows, Linux, FreeBSD and
IRIX - virtually anywhere that FreeType2 supports.
swfmill is an xml2swf and swf2xml processor with import functionalities.
It's most common use is the generation of asset libraries containing
images (PNG and JPEG), fonts (TTF) or other SWF movies for use with
MTASC-compiled ActionScript, although swfmill can be used to produce
both simple and complex SWF structures.
* built around an XSLT/EXSLT processor (libxslt)
* input and output of the XSLT transformation can be either XML or
binary SWF
* XSLT commands for importing PNG, JPEG, TTF and SWF, and for mapping
SWF ID numbers
* built-in "simple dialect" to support library creation and building
simple SWFs
A2ps formats each named file for printing in a postscript printer; if
no file is given, a2ps reads from the standard input. The format used
is nice and compact: normally two pages on each physical page, borders
surrounding pages, headers with useful information (page number,
printing date, file name or supplied header), line numbering, etc.
This is very useful for making archive listings of programs.
Additionally, A2ps "pretty print"s using special fonts for a wide array
of languages, making things like program listings much more legible.

PostScript::Simple allows you to have a simple method of writing
PostScript files from Perl. It has graphics primitives that allow lines,
curves, circles, polygons and boxes to be drawn. Text can be added to
the page using standard PostScript fonts.
The images can be single page EPS files, or multipage PostScript files.
The image size can be set by using a recognised paper size ("A4", for
example) or by giving dimensions. The units used can be specified ("mm"
or "in", etc) and are the same as those used in TeX. The default unit is
a bp, or a PostScript point, unlike TeX.
FreeXL is an open source library to extract valid data from within an Excel
(.xls) spreadsheet.
FreeXL design goals:
to be simple and lightweight
to be stable, robust and efficient
to be easily and universally portable
completely ignoring any GUI-related oddity
Note that the final goal means that FreeXL ignores at all fonts, sizes and
alignments, and most formats. It ignores Pivot Table, Charts, Formulas, Visual
Basic macros and so on. FreeXL is structurally simple and quite light-weight
(typically 40-80K of object code, stripped).
