What is The Webalizer?
----------------------
A fast, free web server log file analysis program. Produces
HTML output for viewing with a web browser. Written in C on
a Linux platform, however designed to be as ANSI/POSIX
compliant as possible so porting to other UNIX platforms should
be painless. Binary distributions for most popular platforms
are available. Features multiple language support, incremental
processing capabilities, reverse DNS lookup support, export via
tab separated ascii files to popular databases and spreadsheets,
and much more. Supports standard CLF and combined logs, as well
as wu-ftpd xferlog and squid proxy logs, which can be either in
standard text format or gzip compressed.

Fontconfig does the following:
* discover new fonts when installed automatically, removing a common source
of configuration problems.
* perform font name substitution, so that appropriate alternative fonts can
be selected if fonts are missing.
* identify the set of fonts required to completely cover a set of languages.
* have GUI configuration tools built as it uses an XML-based configuration
file (though with autodiscovery, we believe this need is minimized).
* efficiently and quickly find the fonts you need among the set of fonts
you have installed, even if you have installed thousands of fonts, while
minimzing memory usage.
* be used in concert with the X Render Extension and FreeType to implement
high quality, anti-aliased and subpixel rendered text on a display.
The MgOpen typefaces are freely available and contain glyphs for viewing
texts in Greek (written in the monotoniko system).
The MgOpen typeface collection is composed of the following typefaces:
- MgOpenCanonica is a serif typeface, based on the design of Times Roman.
- MgOpenCosmetica is a sans-serif typeface, based on the design of Optima.
- MgOpenModata is another sans-serif typeface.
- MgOpenModerna is a sans-serif typeface, based on the design of Helvetica.
Each family contains four fonts, namely all the combinations of regular and
bold weight and upright and italic (or oblique) shape. All the fonts contain
glyphs for the latin and greek alphabets (using the monotoniko system), while
the fonts of the Canonica family also contain all the glyphs necessary for
viewing Greek texts written in the polytoniko system. All the fonts use the
Unicode encoding for characters and are in the TrueType format.
Sawfish is an extensible window manager using a Lisp-based scripting
language. Its policy is very minimal compared to most window managers.
Its aim is simply to manage windows in the most flexible and attractive
manner possible. All high-level WM functions are implemented in Lisp
for future extensibility or redefinition.
These are some of the features that set Sawfish apart from other window
managers:
* Powerful key-binding: Virtually every functionality provided by Sawfish
can be bound to keys (or mouse buttons).
* Event hooking: For many events (moving windows etc.) you can customize
the way Sawfish will respond.
* Window matching: When windows are created you can match them to a set
of rules and automatically perform actions on them.
* Flexible theming: Sawfish allows for very different themes to be created
and a variety of third-party themes is readily available
Spectrwm (previously known as scrotwm) is a small dynamic tiling window
manager for X11. It tries to stay out of the way so that valuable screen
real estate can be used for much more important stuff. It has sane
defaults and does not require one to learn a language to do any
configuration. It was written by hackers for hackers and it strives to be
small, compact and fast.
It was largely inspired by xmonad and dwm. Both are fine products but suffer
from things like: crazy-unportable-language-syndrome, silly defaults,
asymmetrical window layout, "how hard can it be?" and good old NIH.
Nevertheless dwm was a phenomenal resource and many good ideas and code was
borrowed from it. On the other hand xmonad has great defaults, key bindings
and xinerama support but is crippled by not being written in C.
xclip is a command line utility that is designed to run on any system with an
X11 implementation. It provides an interface to X selections ("the clipboard")
from the command line. It can read data from standard in or a file and place it
in an X selection for pasting into other X applications. xclip can also print
an X selection to standard out, which can then be redirected to a file or
another program.
FEATURES
========
* Reads data piped to standard in or files given as arguments
* Prints contents of selection to standard out
* Accesses the XA_PRIMARY, XA_SECONDARY or XA_CLIPBOARD selection
* Supports the INCR mechanism for large transfers
* Connects to the X display in $DISPLAY, or specified with -display host:0
* Waits for selection requests in the background
xlock locks the X server till the user enters their pass-
word at the keyboard. While xlock is running, all new
server connections are refused. The screen saver is disabled.
The mouse cursor is turned off. The screen is blanked and a
changing pattern is put on the screen. If a key or a mouse
button is pressed then the user is prompted for the password
of the user who started xlock.
If the correct password is typed, then the screen is
unlocked and the X server is restored. When typing the
password Control-U and Control-H are active as kill and
erase respectively. To return to the locked screen, click
in the small icon version of the changing pattern.
Do you ever wish you could cut two or more separate pieces of text
at once from a window? Do you ever need to save the output from one
command for reuse in several subsequent tasks? Do you ever find
yourself wanting some easy means of globally exporting data, e.g.
to a parent shell, to another xterm or application, or to another
machine or user? If you answer yes to any of these questions, then
xcb is for you.
Xcb provides access to the cut buffers built into every X server.
It allows the buffers to be manipulated either via the command line,
or with the mouse in a point and click manner. The buffers can be
used as holding pens to store and retrieve arbitrary data fragments,
so any number of different pieces of data can be saved and recalled later.
The program is designed primarily for use with textual data.
The xxkb program is a keyboard layout switcher and indicator. Unlike the
programs that reload keyboard maps and use their own hot-keys, xxkb is a
simple GUI for XKB (X keyboard extension) and just sends commands to and
accepts events from XKB. That means that it will work with the existing
configuration of X11 server without any modifications.
Additional features include:
- Remembers the current layout in each application and switches to it
on window focus change
- Can put its own icon on an application window titlebar
- Allows to designate two main layouts from multi-layout keymaps
- Alternative layouts can be set separately for each application and
can be changed during run-time
- Supports custom actions for certain windows (e.g. ignore, set initial
active layout on application startup)
- Can be docked as a docklet or placed in the system tray
This module is designed to provide an extremely lightweight way to parse
moderately complex configuration files. As such, it exports a single
function - fastconfig() - and does not provide any OO access methods.
Still, it is fairly full-featured.
Here's how it works:
%cf = fastconfig($file, $delim);
Basically, the fastconfig() function returns a hash of keys and values
based on the directives in your configuration file. By default, directives
and values are separated by whitespace in the config file, but this can be
easily changed with the delimiter argument (see below).
When the configuration file is read, its modification time is first
checked and the results cached. On each call to fastconfig(), if the
config file has been changed, then the file is reread. Otherwise, the
cached results are returned automatically. This makes this module great
for mod_perl modules and scripts, one of the primary reasons I wrote it.
Simply include this at the top of your script or inside of your
constructor function:
my %cf = fastconfig('/path/to/config/file.conf');
If the file argument is omitted, then fastconfig() looks for a file named
$0.conf in the ../etc directory relative to the executable. For example,
if you ran:
/usr/local/bin/myapp
Then fastconfig() will automatically look for:
/usr/local/etc/myapp.conf
This is great if you're really lazy and always in a hurry, like I am.
If this doesn't work for you, simply supply a filename manually. Note that
filename generation does not work in mod_perl, so you'll need to supply a
filename manually.
