Involved Projects and Packages
Boost Jam is a build tool based on FTJam, which in turn is based on
Perforce Jam. It contains significant improvements made to facilitate
its use in the Boost Build System, but should be backward compatible
with Perforce Jam.
Botan is a C++ library that provides support for many common
cryptographic operations, including encryption, authentication, and
X.509v3 certificates and CRLs. A wide variety of algorithms is
supported, including RSA, DSA, DES, AES, MD5, and SHA-1.
Uses installwatch to keep track of all files created or modified during
the run of an installation script like "make install". The information
is used to create a rpm package that holds all files installed by the
tracked installation. This makes it possible, for example, to remove
all files later with rpm -e package or to install the package on
another system.
Basic file, shell, and text manipulation utilities. The package
contains the following programs:
[ arch base64 basename cat chcon chgrp chmod chown chroot cksum comm cp
csplit cut date dd df dir dircolors dirname du echo env expand expr
factor false fmt fold groups head id install join kill link ln logname
ls md5sum mkdir mkfifo mknod mktemp mv nice nl nohup od paste pathchk

stat stty su sum sync tac tail tee test timeout touch tr true tsort tty
uname unexpand uniq unlink uptime users vdir wc who whoami yes
CVS is a front-end to the rcs (Revision Control System) included in the
standard Linux distributions. PCL-CVS, an emacs (Emacs) front-end for
CVS, is also included.
Delta assists you in minimizing "interesting" files subject to a test
of their interestingness. A common such situation is when attempting to
isolate a small failure-inducing substring of a large input that causes
your program to exhibit a bug. Please see
/usr/share/doc/packages/delta/www/using_delta.html for documentation.
The GNU diff utilities find differences between files. diff is used to
make source code patches, for instance.
Dos2unix is used to convert plain text from DOS (CR/LF) format. Mac2unix
converts plain text from MAC (CR) format to UNIX format (LF).
Unix2dos converts plain text files from UNIX
format to DOS format and unix2dos converts from UNIX to MAC format.
FileZilla is a modern and powerful FTP client for Windows and Linux.
FileZilla development focuses on high usability while also supporting
as many useful features as possible. FileZilla is "Open Source" under
the GPL license.
Some of the main features are: * Continuing interrupted
up-/downloads
* Managing different FTP sites
* Modifiable Commands
* Keep-Alive-System
* Timeout detection
* Firewall support
* SOCKS4/5 and HTTP 1.1 proxy support
* SSL support (secure connections)
* SFTP support
* Upload/Download queue
* Drag&Drop support
The findutils package contains programs which will help you locate
files on your system. The find utility searches through a hierarchy
of directories looking for files which match a certain set of criteria
(such as a file name pattern). The xargs utility builds and executes
command lines from standard input arguments (usually lists of file
names generated by the find command).
You should install findutils because it includes tools that are very
useful for finding things on your system.
gnump3d is a simple server that allows you to stream MP3s and OGG
Vorbis files across a network.
Gramofile is a program to digitize audio records. Through the
application of several filters, it is possible to accomplish a
significant reduction of disturbances like ticks and scratches. Data is
saved in WAV format, making it easy to record on CD with programs like
cdrecord or xcdroast.
A collection of tools and tcl packages for the manipulation and layout
of graphs (as in nodes and edges, not as in bar charts).

Very powerful fax server.
Idep can be used for checking the dependencies of C++ include files. It
offers these features:
- Prints out hierarchy of include files
- Lists the class definitions that are found in each header file
- Detects cyclic dependencies in your include files
- Detects inclusions that could be pruned
Mkid is a simple, fast, high-capacity, and language-independent
identifier database tool. Actually, the term identifier is too
limiting--mkid stores tokens, be they program identifiers of any form,
literal numbers, or ordinary words. Database queries can be issued
from the command line or from within Emacs, serving as an augmented
tags facility.
Linux has always been able to show how much I/O was going on (the bi
and bo columns of the vmstat 1 command).
Iotop is a Python program with a UI similar to top to show on behalf of
which process is the I/O going on.
Two programs--one allows the dumping of resource data and generation of
a skeleton configuration file, the other configures ISA PnP hardware
using a configuration file.

/usr/share/doc/packages/isapnp/README.SuSE
JOE (Joe's Own Editor) is a freeware ASCII editor for UNIX. Joe is
similar to most IBM PC text editors. The keyboard combinations are
similar to WordStar[tm] and Turbo C. Some of Joe's features include:
-full support of termcap and terminfo (useful for device-independent
descriptions to control screen output) -optimized screen refresh like
GNU Emacs (Joe can even be used at 2400 baud) -easy installation with
all features for UNIX integration with vi: a marked block of text can
be filtered through a UNIX command and wherever JOE accepts a filename
parameter, the following can also be substituted:
!command\t\t:to redirect from or to another command
>>filename\t\t:to append onto an existing file
filename,start,size\t:to edit a part of a file or device
-\t\t\t:to use standard input/output
When JOE has several files opened at the same time, each file is
displayed in its own window. Additionally, JOE allows for shell windows
from which the output of the executed commands are saved in a buffer,
automatic filename completion (via TAB), help windows, undo and redo,
and search and replace using regular expressions.
The goal of this game is to move the biggest token to a specific
position. A tutorial and solution hint is available for beginners. The
game is visible as a three-dimensional model with different camera
positions. All movements, including the menus, are physically
calculated.
Different themes, like wood, rock, metal, marble, bubbles, and
painting, are available. Themes influence both the display and the
sound effects. Ambient and Drum & Bass music from Nifflas
(www.nifflas.com) gives the game a unique atmosphere.
GNU libtool is a set of shell scripts to automatically configure UNIX
architectures to build shared libraries in a generic fashion.

* recursive checking
* multithreaded
* output in colored or normal text, HTML, SQL, CSV, XML or a sitemap
graph in different formats
* HTTP/1.1, HTTPS, FTP, mailto:, news:, nntp:, Gopher, Telnet and
local file links support
* restriction of link checking with regular expression filters for
URLs
* proxy support
* username/password authorization for HTTP and FTP
* robots.txt exclusion protocol support
* i18n support
* a command line interface
* a (Fast)CGI web interface (requires HTTP server)
Logwatch is a customizable, pluggable log-monitoring system. It will go
through your logs for a given period of time and make a report in the
areas that you wish with the detail that you wish.
