Linux Software Packages

Marist - SuSE - Turbolinux - Caiman - Red Hat - Debian

The packages in the Debian Woody Distribution:

3270-common Common files for IBM 3270 emulators {x,c,s,tcl}3270, and pr3287.
3270-common contains files referenced in other 3270 packages: /etc/3270/ibm_hosts /usr/bin/x3270if /usr/share/man/man1/x3270if.1 /usr/share/man/man1/x3270-script.1 /usr/share/man/man5/ibm_hosts.5
3dchess 3D chess for X11
3 dimensional Chess for X11R6. Three boards, 96 pieces and 26 directions.
3dwm-clock A 3Dwm apps
The 3Dwm clock application (tdwm-clock) is the first real application that is even remotely useful. It makes use of the 3Dwm Nobel API, including the new solid modeling support, to create a three-dimensional analog clock displaying the current time.
3dwm-csgclient A 3Dwm client
A simple client which is builded using new libsolid. This is only an example on how libsolid work.
3dwm-geoclient A 3Dwm client
This is a very simple 3Dwm client that connects to the exported GeometryKit in the server, creates a Geometry, loads a 3D file from the local system (in this case a simple model of an office, which also happens to be Rob's room), and passes it to the 3Dwm server. The 3Dwm server will happily render any geometry that is created, so running geoclient several times will add more geometries to the graphical output. Please note that you may need to zoom out (using the 'X' key) to see graphical output. The geoclient is able to open native .raw files as well as standard 3ds files (using MeshIO). In other words, you may experiment by loading other files than the supplied office model to the 3Dwm server.
3dwm-pickclient A 3Dwm client
This is an example showing how libzorn work.
3dwm-server Binary server daemon
This package contains display binary server daemon.
3dwm-texclient A 3Dwm client
This is a simple client used for testing the 3Dwm texture capabilities.
3dwm-vncclient A 3Dwm client
This will open a connection to the VNC server from the 3Dwm server, and the graphical output will be displayed on a single quad in the 3Dwm world (you may need to zoom out to see it). Currently, vncclient supports no interaction with the VNC window (the bindings and the actual communication code has been implemented, only the 3Dwm side is missing).
44bsd-rdist 4.4BSD rdist.
This is the traditional rdist from 4.4BSD Lite with FreeBSD fixes. It is provided for compatibility with third-party rdist implementations.
This is the binary package for 4.4BSD rdist.

It can be used for example as an IPv6-capable IRC proxy.
9menu Creates X menus from the shell.
This is 9menu, a simple program that allows you to create X menus from the shell, where each menu item will run a command. 9menu is intended for use with 9wm, but can be used with any other window manager.
9wm An emulation of the Plan 9 window manager 8-1/2.
9wm is an X window manager which attempts to emulate the Plan 9 window manager 8-1/2 as far as possible within the constraints imposed by X.
It provides a simple yet comfortable user interface, without garish decorations or title-bars. Or icons. And it's click-to-type.

abc2mtex An easy way of transcribing folk and traditional music
ABC2MTeX is a package written to typeset tunes stored in an ascii format or abc notation. It was designed primarily for folk and traditional tunes of Western European origin (such as Irish, English and Scottish) which can be written on one stave in standard classical notation. However, it can act as a fast preprocessor for multi-stave music and should be extendible to many other types of music.
The package is small, easy to use and features, amongst other things, the ability to transpose both the music and the abc notation. It will also create an index of all the tunes you have transcribed.
The ability to write tunes in abc notation means that they can be easily and portably stored or transported electronically. This package allows you to typeset them easily too. In addition the notation is not specifically tied to MusicTeX and similar packages have been written to translate to other formats such as postscript and MIDI.
(Note: MusicTeX is not packaged for Debian because MusicTeX is old. Please the new-and-better MusiXTeX package instead. :)

abcde A Better CD Encoder
A frontend program to cdparanoia, wget, cd-discid, id3, and your favorite Ogg or MP3 encoder (defaults to oggenc). Grabs an entire CD and converts each track to Ogg or MP3, then comments or ID3-tags each file, with one command.
abcmidi-yaps Yet another ABC to PostScript converter
This program translates tunes written in the ABC format to PostScript, which can then be viewed on screen or printed. It is essentially a (non-exclusive) alternative to abc2ps, being based on the abc2ps PostScript code together with the ABC parser from the abcmidi package.
abcmidi A converter from ABC to MIDI format and back
This package contains the programs `abc2midi' and `midi2abc', which convert from the abc musical notation format to standard MIDI format and vice-versa. They can generate accompaniment from guitar chords in the abc file, as well as insert various MIDI events; the MIDI-to-abc translation tries to figure out bars, triplets and accidentals on its own.
The package also contains `abc2abc' (an abc prettyprinter/transposer) and `mftext' (a program that will dump a MIDI file as text).
The programs in this package are based on the `midifilelib' distribution available from http://www.harmony-central.com/MIDI/.

afbackup-client Client-Server Backup System (Client side)
This is a client-server backup system offering several workstations a centralized backup to a special backup server. Backing up only one computer is easily possible, too. Any streaming device can be used for writing the data to it, usually this will be a tape device. Writing backups is normally done sequentially: The next writing to tape goes to the end of the previous write no matter where you have restored from in the meantime. THIS IS ONLY THE CLIENT, YOU NEED TO HAVE A SERVER RUNNING ON EITHER THIS OR ANOTHER HOST.
Features: - Authentication of the client is performed before it can take over control - Access restriction for the streamer device -> security - Client-side per-file compression -> reliability - Data stream is written to tape in pieces -> fast finding of files - Tape position logging for each file - Tape capacity is fully used - Full / incremental backups - Raw partitions can be backed up - Client and Server buffering for maximal throughput is done
Note: Tk is required if you want to use the graphical configuration tool instead of the text configuration tool.

afio Archive file manipulation program.
Afio manipulates groups of files, copying them within or between filesystems and an afio archive.
Afio archives are portable as they contain only ASCII-formatted header information. Afio makes cpio-format archives. Afio deals somewhat gracefully with input data corruption. Afio supports multi-volume archives during interactive operation. Afio can make compressed archives that are much safer than compressed tar or cpio archives.
Afio is best used as an `archive engine' in a backup script.
afterstep A window manager with the NEXTSTEP look and feel.
AfterStep is a window manager based on FVWM which attempts to emulate the NEXTSTEP look and feel, while retaining the configurability of its predecessor. Note that this window manager makes extensive use of the color palette. If you have only an 8-bit color display, it will run as packaged, but you may want to modify the configuration to use fewer colors.
AfterStep is a continuation of the BowMan window manager project, but the name was changed to reflect the desire that it do more than simply emulate and become a valuable window manager in its own right.
aggregate CIDR network aggregation and filtering
aggregate is a tool for aggregating CIDR networks. Input is read from stdin and output is written to stdout. It understands IPv4 networks represented as network/prefix, network/netmask and start_address - end_address. It is able to read input in any one of these formats and output in the same or a different format.
It is also able to limit the maximum and minimum prefix length that will be output. This can be used to filter, for instance ignoring all networks with a prefix longer than 24 bits. That is all networks smaller than a traditional Class C.

agrep is a version of standard UNIX grep with the following enhancements: o the ability to search for approximate patterns o it is record oriented rather than just line oriented o multiple patterns with AND (or OR) logic queries
aide Advanced Intrusion Detection Environment
AIDE creates a database from the regular expression rules that it finds from the config file. Once this database is initialized it can be used to verify the integrity of the files. It has several message digest algorithms (md5,sha1,rmd160,tiger,haval,etc.) that are used to check the integrity of the file. More algorithms can be added with relative ease. All of the usual file attributes can also be checked for inconsistencies.
You will almost certainly want to tweak the configuration file in /etc/aide/aide.conf. See manual.html for information on this file.

amanda-client Advanced Maryland Automatic Network Disk Archiver (Client)
Amanda is a backup system designed to archive many computers on a network to a single large-capacity tape drive. This package is suitable for large amounts of data to backup. For smaller solutions take a look at afbackup, tob, taper, ...
Features: * will back up multiple machines in parallel to a holding disk, blasting finished dumps one by one to tape as fast as we can write files to tape. For example, a ~2 Gb 8mm tape on a ~240K/s interface to a host with a large holding disk can be filled by Amanda in under 4 hours. * built on top of standard backup software: Unix dump/restore, and later GNU Tar and others. * does simple tape management: will not overwrite the wrong tape. * supports tape changers via a generic interface. Easily customizable to any type of tape carousel, robot, or stacker that can be controlled via the unix command line. * for a restore, tells you what tapes you need, and finds the proper backup image on the tape for you. * recovers gracefully from errors, including down or hung machines. * reports results, including all errors in detail, in email to operators. * will dynamically adjust backup schedule to keep within constraints: no more juggling by hand when adding disks and computers to network. * includes a pre-run checker program, that conducts sanity checks on both the tape server host and all the client hosts (in parallel), and will send an e-mail report of any problems that could cause the backups to fail. * can compress dumps before sending or after sending over the net, with either compress or gzip. * can optionally synchronize with external backups, for those large timesharing computers where you want to do full dumps when the system is down in single-user mode (since BSD dump is not reliable on active filesystems): Amanda will still do your daily dumps. * lots of other options; Amanda is very configurable.
THIS PACKAGE RELIES ON A RUNNING AMANDA SERVER IN YOUR NETWORK.
For a quick start read the README.client.debian in /usr/share/doc/amanda-client.
Explanation of suggested programs: - awk and gnuplot are needed for plotting statistics of backups

and Auto Nice Daemon
The auto nice daemon activates itself in certain intervals and renices jobs according to their priority and CPU usage. Jobs owned by root are left alone. Jobs are never increased in their priority.
The renice intervals can be adjusted as well as the default nice level and the activation intervals. A priority database stores user/group/job tuples along with their renice values for three CPU usage time ranges. Negative nice levels are interpreted as signals to be sent to a process, triggered by CPU usage; this way, Netscapes going berserk can be killed automatically. The strategy for searching the priority database can be configured.
AND also provides network-wide configuration files with host-specific sections, as well as wildcard/regexp support for commands in the priority database.
angband-doc Documentation for the roguelike game Angband

These files were downloaded from ftp://clockwork.dementia.org/angband, for the most part
angband A single-player, text-based, dungeon simulation
Angband is a single-player, text-based, dungeon simulation derived from the game Moria, which was in turn based on Rogue. It is often described as a "roguelike" game because the look and feel of the game is still quite similar to Rogue.
Angband features many enhancements over Moria: unique foes, artifacts, monster pits and vaults to name a few. Many of these new creatures and objects are drawn from the writings of J.R.R Tolkien, although some of the monsters come straight from classical mythology, Dungeons & Dragons, Rolemaster, or the minds of the orginal Angband coders.
The ultimate goal of the game is to develop a character strong enough to defeat Morgoth, who resides on dungeon level 100. Upon doing so, you will receive the exalted status of "winner" and your character may retire.
Angband is a reference to Morgoth's "prison of iron."
Morgoth was 'the Dark Enemy of Middle-Earth' during its First Age. He was banished by the Valar (offspring of Eru, "god" of J.R.R. Tolkien's world) at the end of the First Age and thus never appears in The Lord of the Rings, set during the Third Age. Sauron, who does figure into those tales, was the most powerful of his servants. Read Tolkien's 'The Silmarillion' for more on the legends of Middle-Earth.

This upload went to non-US nevertheless because I want to have a second opinion. Advantages: * Built-in ANSI X9.17 RNG (Random Number Generator)(CAST/SHA1) * Built-in password quality checking system (now it has support for Bloom filter for faster access --[ BETA ]--) * Two Password Generation Algorithms: 1. Pronounceable Password Generation Algorithm (according to NIST FIPS 181) 2. Random Character Password Generation Algorithm with 35 configurable modes of operation * Configurable password length parameters * Configurable amount of generated passwords * Ability to initialize RNG with user string * Support for /dev/random * Ability to crypt() generated passwords and print them as additional output. * Special parameters to use APG in script * Ability to log password generation requests for network version * Ability to control APG service access using tcpd * Ability to use password generation service from any type of box (Mac, WinXX, etc.) that connected to network * Ability to enforce remote users to use only allowed type of password generation The client/server version of apg has been deliberately omitted.
apmd Utilities for Advanced Power Management (APM)
On laptop computers, the Advanced Power Management (APM) support provides access to battery status information and may help you to conserve battery power, depending on your laptop and the APM implementation. The apmd program also lets you run arbitrary programs when APM events happen (for example, you can eject PCMCIA devices when you suspend, or change hard drive timeouts when you connect the battery).
This package contains apmd(8), a daemon for logging and acting on APM events; and apm(1), a client that prints the information in /proc/apm in a readable format.
apmd is notified of APM events by the APM driver in the kernel.
Recent Debian kernels are built with APM support but it is disabled by default. You need to boot the kernel with the "apm=on" option if you want to enable the driver. (You may need to add this option to your lilo command line.)

apt-listchanges Display new Debian changelog entries from .deb archives
apt-listchanges is a tool to show what has been changed in a new version of a Debian package, as compared to the version currently installed on the system. It does this by extracting the relevant entries from the Debian changelog file, usually found in /usr/share/doc/package/changelog.Debian.gz
It can be run on several .deb archives at a time to get a list of all of the changes that would be effected by installing or upgrading a group of packages. It can be configured to do this automatically during upgrades using apt.
apt-localepurge Dummy installer package for localepurge
Transition package replacing the apt-localepurge package which has been renamed to localepurge. Depends on and installs localepurge and can be purged from the system after having fulfilled its purpose.
apt-move Move cache of Debian packages into a mirror hierarchy
apt-move is used to move a collection of Debian package files into a proper archive hierarchy of the form debian/dists/... It is intended as a tool to help manage the apt-get(8) file cache, but could be configured to work with any collection of Debian packages.
Running apt-move periodically will assist in managing the resulting partial mirror by optionally removing obsolete packages, and creating valid local Packages.gz files. It can also optionally employ rsync(1) to build a partial or complete local mirror of a Debian binary distribution (including an ``installed-packages only'' mirror).
apt-proxy Debian archive proxy and partial mirror builder
apt-proxy automatically builds a Debian HTTP mirror based on requests which pass through the proxy. It's great for multiple Debian machines on the same network with a slower internet link.
The archive is automatically kept up to date using http, ftp or rsync. Cache cleaning of unused and old versions is configurable. You can also import the contents of your apt cache into the archive using apt-proxy-import.
For more information, see the apt-proxy homepage at http://apt-proxy.sourceforge.net
The suggested packages are needed for the following features: wget for http/ftp backend support, rsync for rsyncd backends, dpkg-dev for apt-proxy-import and stat for improved apt-proxy performance.
apt-show-source Shows source-package information
This program parses the APT lists for source packages and the dpkg status file and then lists every package with a different version number than the one installed. It's very useful if your deb-src sources.list entries point to unstable and your deb entries point to stable.
apt-show-versions Lists available package versions with distribution
apt-show-versions parses the dpkg status file and the APT lists for the installed and available package versions and distribution and shows upgrade options within the specific distribution of the selected package.
This is really useful if you have a mixed stable/testing environment and want to list all packages which are from testing and can be upgraded in testing.
apt-spy writes a sources.list file based on bandwidth tests.
Downloads from debian.org a list of current mirrors and tests each of the mirrors for bandwidth. Writes a /etc/apt/sources.list file based on the responses it gets.
apt-utils APT utility programs
This package contains some infrequently used APT utility programs such as apt-ftparchive, apt-sortpkgs and apt-extracttemplates.
apt-extracttemplates is used by debconf to prompt for configuration questions before installation. apt-ftparchive is used to create Package and other index files. apt-sortpkgs is a Package/Source file normalizer.
apt-zip Update a non-networked computer using apt and removable media
These scripts simplify the process of using dselect and apt on a non-networked Debian box, using removable media like ZIP floppies. One generates a `fetch' script (supporting backends such as wget and lftp, in a modular, extensible way) to be run on a host with better connectivity, check space constraints of your removable media, and then install the package on your Debian box.
Note on current version: space-checking is not done and spanning multiple disks is not yet supported.
apt Advanced front-end for dpkg
This is Debian's next generation front-end for the dpkg package manager. It provides the apt-get utility and APT dselect method that provides a simpler, safer way to install and upgrade packages.

aris-extractor Scan system logs for security incidents and report them to ARIS
The Attack Registry and Intelligence Service (ARIS) is a free, user-integrated attack-trending system hosted by SecurityFocus that allows administrators and operators of Intrusion Detection Systems (IDSs) to track, evaluate and respond to security alerts and attacks in a proactive manner.
As an integral piece of the ARIS Analzyer service, SecurityFocus's open-source ARIS Extractor utility distills data provided by IDS attack-list logs to build client portfolios that provide meaningful, graphical analysis of potentially malicious network incidents. By filtering out insignificant or benign data and converting it to a common format (xml), ARIS Extractor streamlines incident reporting for both security professionals and home users in a way that allows IDS operators to focus only on relevant attacks and incidents. Additionally, ARIS Extractor ensures client confidentiality through secure file-transfer protocols and optional IP address suppression.

armagetron-server Server for Armagetron, a 3D Tron-like high speed game.
This package provides the server for Armagetron. This package is not needed to play Armagetron, only to serve network games.
armagetron A 3D Tron-like high speed game.
A 3D Tron-like high speed game. The rules are simple: you ride a light cycle (a kind of motorbike that can only turn 90 degrees at a time, leaves a wall behind and cannot be stopped) and have to avoid running into walls while at the same time you have to try to get your opponent to run into them.
The idea is based on the Disney movie from 1982 called "Tron". If you ever wanted to take a try at one of those speed demons features in the movie, this is your chance. Of all the Tron clones out there, I think one is the one that comes closest to the feeling the movie tries to express. This is in part thanks to the sophisticated camera motions, in part to the superb modelling work and in part to the fabulous sound effects. To add some extra fascination into the game, unlike to other Tron clones, in armagetron you can accelerate. Alas, there's no accelerate button. If you want to drive fast, you have to drive good -- and really really close to the walls.
Armagetron can be played against AI opponents, against other humans over the network, or a mixture of both.
Still not convinced? http://pluto.spaceports.com/~zman/armagetron/

arpd A user-space ARP daemon
The ARP daemon moves the management of the ARP (Address Resolution Protocol) table from kernel to user space. It is useful for sites with LARGE network segments (256+ systems per segment), because the kernel hash tables are not optimized to handle this situation. To use the ARP daemon your kernel needs to have ARPD and NETLINK support enabled. The standard kernels of Debian GNU/Linux lack this support.
arping sends IP and/or ARP pings (to the MAC address)
The arping utility sends ARP and/or ICMP requests to the specified host and displays the replies. The host may be specified by its hostname, its IP address, or its MAC address.

ash NetBSD /bin/sh
"ash" is a POSIX compliant shell that is much smaller than "bash". We take advantage of that by making it the shell on the installation root floppy, where space is at a premium.
It can be usefully installed as /bin/sh (because it executes scripts somewhat faster than "bash"), or as the default shell either of root or of a second user with a userid of 0 (because it depends on fewer libraries, and is therefore less likely to be affected by an upgrade problem or a disk failure). It is also useful for checking that a script uses only POSIX syntax.
"bash" is a better shell for most users, since it has some nice features absent from "ash", and is a required part of the system.

atlas2-base Automatically Tuned Linear Algebra Software,generic shared
ATLAS is an approach for the automatic generation and optimization of numerical software for processors with deep memory hierarchies and pipelined functional units. The production of such software for machines ranging from desktop workstations to embedded processors can be a tedious and time consuming task. ATLAS has been designed to automate much of this process. We concentrate our efforts on the widely used linear algebra kernels called the Basic Linear Algebra Subroutines (BLAS).
These libraries are built without any processor extension instructions, and should run on all processors of this general architecture, albeit less than optimally.

aub Assembles binary files from USENET
AUB automatically assembles the pieces of multi-part Usenet postings and decodes them. A user-supplied configuration file tells which newsgroups AUB should monitor. The user can also supply a "hook" program, which tests each subject header and determines whether that particular file should be downloaded or not.
Resumed development resuming after 10 years of inactivity has given AUB the better documentation and the new abilities to decode Base64 files, perform NNTP authentication as well as a good deal of additional functionality.
auctex An integrated environment for writing TeX/LaTeX documents.
AUC TeX can indent your text as you write it, let you run TeX/LaTeX and other LaTeX-related tools (such as a output filter or post processor) from within Emacs, and includes a wide range of Emacs macros to allow both easy insertions of LaTeX commands, and easy compilation, previewing, and printing of your TeX documents.
AUC TeX also lets you browse through compiling errors TeX reports, while it moves the cursor directly to the reported error and displays documentation for that particular error. This will even work when the document is spread over several files.
Currently XEmacs ships with its own AUC TeX, so this package should only be used with GNU/Emacs. (I.e., you don't need to install this package if your site uses only XEmacs.)
audacity A fast, cross-platform audio editor
Audacity is an innovative graphical audio editor. Its main goals are speed and being cross-platform (it uses the cross-platform toolkit wxWindows, and is fully supported on Linux, Windows, Mac OS 9 and X, and FreeBSD).
It is very fast. Due to its file format and internal data representation, undo and redo are constant-time operations. It also supports an unlimited number of tracks, and can import and export a number of different formats including WAV, AIFF, MP3 and Ogg Vorbis.
audiooss transparent OSS emulation over NAS
This is a compatibility utility that allows programs written for the popular Open Sound System (OSS) interface to run using the Network Audio System (NAS) instead. It works by preloading a library to intercept and manipulate critical system calls such as open(), read(), and write(). The emulation is not yet complete, but it already works for many programs.

autoclass automatic classification or clustering
AutoClass solves the problem of automatic discovery of classes in data (sometimes called clustering, or unsupervised learning), as distinct from the generation of class descriptions from labeled examples (called supervised learning). It aims to discover the "natural" classes in the data. AutoClass is applicable to observations of things that can be described by a set of attributes, without referring to other things. The data values corresponding to each attribute are limited to be either numbers or the elements of a fixed set of symbols. With numeric data, a measurement error must be provided. For more information, see http://ic-www.arc.nasa.gov/ic/projects/bayes-group/autoclass/.

autoinstall Progeny Debian auto-installation system
This package contains the Progeny Debian auto-installation system. This system makes it possible to install a complete Debian system with no user interaction from a set of configuration files.
The basic model is that of cloning an existing system; after installing and configuring a Debian system to taste, the configuration is "dumped" to the configuration files, along with some extra information.
It currently supports flexible constraints for partitioning differently-sized disks in a logical fashion, hardware auto-configuration with discover (including configuration of X, if appropriate), network configuration via DHCP or a database based on MAC addresses, and a cross-platform design making it possible for install media for any platform to be created on any other platform.
Platform-specific files are not included in this package; install the "autoinstall-<arch>" packages to install support for <arch>.
autolog Terminates connections for idle users
Autolog terminates connections considered to be idle based on a large variety of parameters.
automake1.5 A tool for generating GNU Standards-compliant Makefiles.
Automake is a tool for automatically generating `Makefile.in's from files called `Makefile.am'.
The goal of Automake is to remove the burden of Makefile maintenance from the back of the individual GNU maintainer (and put it on the back of the Automake maintainer).
The `Makefile.am' is basically a series of `make' macro definitions (with rules being thrown in occasionally). The generated `Makefile.in's are compliant with the GNU Makefile standards.
Automake 1.5 fails to work in a number of situations that Automake 1.4 did, so has been renamed so that the previous version can continue to be made available.
automake A tool for generating GNU Standards-compliant Makefiles.
Automake is a tool for automatically generating `Makefile.in's from files called `Makefile.am'.
The goal of Automake is to remove the burden of Makefile maintenance from the back of the individual GNU maintainer (and put it on the back of the Automake maintainer).
The `Makefile.am' is basically a series of `make' macro definitions (with rules being thrown in occasionally). The generated `Makefile.in's are compliant with the GNU Makefile standards.
autopilot Monitor the DTR line of /dev/palm and run a command to start sync

autoproject create a skeleton source package for a new program
autoproject interviews the user, then creates a source package for a new program which follows the GNU programming standards. The new package uses autoconf to configure itself, and automake to create the Makefile. `make distcheck' succeeds.
The idea is that you execute autoproject just once when you start a new project. It will ask a few questions, then create a new directory and populate it with standard files, customized for the new project.
Optionally, the new package will use a command line parser generator. Currently, autoproject supports two parser generators: clig by Harald Kirsch <kir@iitb.fhg.de> (see http://wsd.iitb.fhg.de/software/), and autogen by Bruce Korb <korbb@datadesign.com> (see ftp://autogen.linuxbox.com/pub/).

axkit An XML Delivery Toolkit for Apache
AxKit is an XML Application Server for Apache. It provides on-the-fly conversion from XML to any format, such as HTML, WAP or text using either W3C standard techniques, or flexible custom code. AxKit also uses a built-in Perl interpreter to provide some amazingly powerful techniques for XML transformation.
The emphasis with AxKit is on separation of content from presentation. The pipelining technique that AxKit uses allows content to be converted to a presentable format in stages, allowing certain platforms to see data differently to others. AxKit allows web designers to focus on web site design, content developers to work on a purely content basis, and webmasters to focus on their core competencies.
AxKit is based on plugin components. This allows the web site developer to create a completely custom XML Application Server based around the AxKit API. AxKit can either automatically provide caching facilities, or you can create your own cache handler, so that XML transformations (which can be time consuming) only happen when required.
The toolkit also provides ability to build component based web sites, and dynamic content. Database integration is fully supported, allowing either deliver of XML from a database, or XML generation from a database query. Dynamic web components can be built using the Perl language, making the possibilities as infinite as CGI scripts, without the potential mess that CGI programming can cause.

beep Advanced pc-speaker beeper
beep does what you'd expect: it beeps. But unlike printf "\a" beep allows you to control pitch, duration, and repetitions. Its job is to live inside shell/perl scripts and allow more granularity than one has otherwise. It is controlled completely through command line options. It's not supposed to be complex, and it isn't - but it makes system monitoring (or whatever else it gets hacked into) much more informative.
bf-utf-source Source for fonts needed to build boot-floppies.
This package contains bdf fonts needed to build the international version of boot-floppies. These fonts used to be in boot-floppies cvs but pserver had difficulty with such large files. The files are now in their own package.
If you aren't building boot-floppies you probably don't need this package.
bfbtester Brute Force Binary Tester
BFBTester is great for doing quick, proactive, security checks of binary programs. BFBTester will perform checks of single and multiple argument command line overflows as well as environment variable overflows. BFBTester can also watch for tempfile creation activity to alert the user of any programs using unsafe tempfile names. While BFBTester can not test all overflows in software, it is useful for detecting initial mistakes that can red flag dangerous software.
bfr nonblocking 8-bit-clean pipe buffer
bfr's purpose is to buffer data. It buffers from its standard input and/or a list of files of your choosing, and allows this data to flow to its standard output at whatever rate that end can handle. It's useful for any situation in which its beneficial to have I/O occur in a detached yet smooth fashion. Also contained is bfp, a buffering /dev/dsp writer. Pipe your raw PCM data to it, for skip-free bliss.
bg5cc Big-5 wide-characters rectifier
Bg5cc converts `\' in Big-5 wide-characters that appear in source programs to `\\'. This ensures programs that contain Big-5 characters can be compiled correctly. Bg5cc should have little use to end-users.
bg5ps A utility to print Chinese Big5/GB documents using TrueType fonts
Bg5ps is a utility to output a Postscript file from a Chinese Big5 or GB2312 encoded document by using TrueType fonts.
Postscript files produced by Netscape and mpage that contain Big5 or GB2312 characters can be filtered by bg5ps so that the Chinese characters within can be printed correctly.
If you want to use the configuration tool 'bg5psconf', make sure you have the package python-gtk installed.
bibindex Fast lookup in BibTeX bibliography data bases
bibindex converts a .bib file to a .bix file, which is a compact binary representation of the .bib file containing hash tables for fast lookup, as well as byte offset positions into the corresponding .bib file.
biblook provides an interactive lookup facility using the .bix and .bib files. It verifies that the file version number and bibindex version number match its own values, and also compares the file time stamps so that it can detect whether the .bix file is out-of-date with respect to the .bib file. In either case, execution terminates.
This Debian package features a command line history mechanism through the GNU readline library.
bible-kjv-text King James Version of the Bible - text and concordance
This package contains the King James Version of the Bible (translated in 1611) which is and was widely used in the English speaking culture, together with a full concordance.

bibview X11 Bibliography database tool
bibview is a tool to let you set up and maintain BibTeX bibliography databases. LaTeX can then use these automatically in citations and bibliographies in your documents.
From its README:
It [bibview] supports the user in making new entries, searching for entries and moving entries from one BiB to another. It is possible to work with more than one BiB simultaneously. bibview is implemented with Xt and Athena Widgets. There are six types of windows in bibview: The main window contains menus for customizing bibview and for working with BiBs on the file level. The bibliography window (one for every open BiB) contains commands for manipulating the BiB. The list window (at most one for every open BiB) shows a list of entries. It displays the fields author, title, type and year. The card window (at most one for every entry) helps editing an entry. It contains boxes for each field of the entry (according to the type). The fields can be edited by putting the mouse cursor into the field. Macros in fields and the symbol for concatenation ('#') are marked with a preceding '@'.
bidentd Bisqwit's identd
Bisqwit's identd is an Identification Protocol (RFC 1413) daemon. It works like an ident daemon is supposed to work. Masquerading is supported, and works recursively. Works only under Linux, due to the use of /proc filesystem.
A typical case for using Bisqwit's identd: - Alpha has the internet connection. It has an ip in internet. - Beta is masqueraded by Alpha. - Gamma is masqueraded by Beta. - Somebody in Gamma starts irc, and the irc server (in internet) gets the username of the user in Gamma, correctly. All of these computers would be running bidentd (from inetd), although Gamma could have any ident daemon, as it does not masquerade further.

bitcollider-plugins bitcollider plugins
These plugins allow the bitcollider program to get metadata from rich media files. So far, there are plugins for ogg vorbis and wav files.
Think of it as a really big file hash database on the internet with constant contributions from others of metadata on files.
Bitcollider is a small program to reliably identify and describe files on your machine. When run with a specific file as input, this program does two major things:
* It examines the file, calculating a distinctive digital fingerprint, or bitprint, and taking note of some other identifying information that can be extracted from the file, like file length and the local filename. * It launches your web browser to do a lookup at our website, submitting this identifying information as the search terms.
At bitzi.com you'll see what - if anything - others have said about your file, and have a chance to contribute descriptions or comments yourself. If your automatic submission included information useful to our database, that new information will be contributed to the database under your screen name.

blackbox Window manager for X
This is a window manager for X. It is similar in many respects to such popular packages as Window Maker, Enlightenment, and FVWM2. You might be interested in this package if you are tired of window managers that are a heavy drain on your system resources, but you still want an attractive and modern-looking interface.
The best part of all is that this program is coded in C++, so it is even more attractive "under the hood" than it is in service -- no small feat.
If none of this sounds familiar to you, or you want your computer to look like Microsoft Windows or Apple's OS X, you probably don't want this package.
blackened A feature rich ircII based IRC client
IRC (Internet Relay Chat) provides a way of communicating in real time with people from all over the world. It consists of various separate networks (or "nets") of IRC servers, machines that allow users to connect to IRC. The largest nets are EFnet (the original IRC net, often having more than 32,000 people at once), Undernet, IRCnet, DALnet, NewNet and OPN.
Generally, the user (such as you) runs a program (called a "client") to connect to a server on one of the IRC nets. The server relays information to and from other servers on the same net.
The ircII program is the first widely used IRC client. IrcII has spawned several other clients in modern times, all of which keep the basic ircII command set and add to it in various more or less useful ways.
Blackened is an enhanced ircII based IRC client that offers a variety of features not found in other clients, including commands designed for IRC server operators and administrators. Normal users also benefit from additional functionality.

blt-demo blt demo scripts - a tcl/tk extension library
This is the demonstration scripts for BLT. You should only need this if you are interested in seeing what BLT can do, or are having trouble understanding the syntax of some BLT commands.
BLT is an extension to the Tk toolkit, adding new widgets, geometry managers, and miscellaneous commands. It does not require any patching of the Tcl or Tk source files.
blt-dev Development in blt - a tcl/tk extension library
This is the development package for BLT. You should only need this if you are developing programs in BLT. The library name is BLT8.3.
BLT is an extension to the Tk toolkit, adding new widgets, geometry managers, and miscellaneous commands. It does not require any patching of the Tcl or Tk source files.
BLT now has a "lite" version with no graphics for use with pure tcl scripts. Both this and the full version are included.
blt8.0-dev Development in blt and tk8.0 - a tcl/tk extension library
This is the development package for BLT. You should only need this if you are developing programs in BLT.
This is package blt-dev linked to tk/tcl 8.0. Package blt-dev is always linked for the newest tk/tcl package available in Debian. However, this also means that package blt-dev is often unstable. Note that the libraries in blt8.0-dev is called BLT8.0, which is slightly incompatible with the rest of the world but allows us in the future to have multiple BLT development environments in stalled simultaneously.
BLT is an extension to the Tk toolkit, adding new widgets, geometry managers, and miscellaneous commands. It does not require any patching of the Tcl or Tk source files.
blt Shared libraries for blt
This is the shared libraries for BLT. You should only need this if you are using programs which are linked to blt, or are developing programs in BLT.
BLT is an extension to the Tk toolkit, adding new widgets, geometry managers, and miscellaneous commands. It does not require any patching of the Tcl or Tk source files.
An attempt is being made to unify the BLT libraries so that the package is independent of whatever tcl/tk library (e.g. 8.0,8.2,8.3) you are using. This will be via the tcl stubs interface. As part of this process, blt8.0 is obsolete and this package dynamically chooses the correct version of BLT library to match your situation. This makes is a lot bigger than if you choose the library versions yourself, but means that you always have the version you need (not always the case under the old system)

boa Lightweight and High Performance WebServer
Boa is a single-tasking HTTP server. That means that unlike traditional web servers, it does not fork for each incoming connection, nor does it fork many copies of itself to handle multiple connections. It internally multiplexes all of the ongoing HTTP connections, and forks only for CGI programs (which must be separate processes.) Preliminary tests show boa is capable of handling several hundred hits per second on a 100 MHz Pentium.

bock Bootstrap-only compiler kit for a subset of Java(tm)
BOCK is a prototype native compiler, originally intended to enable a Java(tm) development environment to be bootstrapped from a C-only environment. It was envisioned that its sole purpose in life would be to compile the forthcoming "Jackal" Java compiler.
BOCK has, since then, gained functionality, and should soon be able to compile most non-graphical Java programs. Its lack of anything resembling error checking means that it won't be of much use for development, but it might be able to generate a reasonably fast binary version of your program.
That said, BOCK is still very much in the pre-alpha testing stage. It is therefore unlikely to be of use to anyone except dedicated hackers and developers.
Also included is "jcomp", a slightly more friendly front-end for bock, which compiles programs against the BOCK mini-library and compiles BOCK's C output to native code in one step.

The bombs explode after a short time delay, taking out any nearby bricks and players. For maximum effect, bombs can be arranged so as to cause a chain reaction of explosions. The last player left is the winner.
bonnie++ Hard drive bottleneck testing benchmark suite.
It is called Bonnie++ because it was based on the Bonnie program. This program also tests performance with creating large numbers of files. Now includes zcav raw-read test program. A modern hard drive will have more sectors in the outer tracks because they are longer. The hard drive will have a number (often more than 8) of zones where each zone has the same number of sectors (due to the need for an integral number of sectors per track). This program allows you to determine the levels of performance provided by different zones and store them in a convenient format for gnuplot.

This package contains utilities for configuring the Linux ethernet bridge. The Linux ethernet bridge can be used for connecting multiple ethernet devices together. The connecting is fully transparent: hosts connected to one ethernet device see hosts connected to the other ethernet devices directly.
browser-history User daemon that tracks URLs looked at and logs them.
Browser-history came from the will to overcome a Netscape bug: there is no global history, and if you close a window, its whole history is lost. For people browsing lots of sites, having the possibility of backtracking to where one has been before means that you don't have to put everything in your bookmarks file. If you are not sure if a site may be worth remembering, don't add it in your bookmarks. If you need it later, just browse your history files.
It works with: Netscape Navigator, Arena, and Amaya. Support for `browser-history' can easily be added to other browsers, provided you can program and have the browser sources.
A manual page and simple documentation will be installed in /usr/share/doc/browser-history/browser-history.html, along with a simple CGI interface to grep the history log and display the result. The optional CGI program requires `cgiwrap' or Apache configured with `suexec'.

bsmtpd Batched SMTP mailer for sendmail and postfix
This package adds a new "mailer" named bsmtp to sendmail or postfix, which allows you to use batched SMTP as protocol. BSMTP is used in UUCP environments and allows to transport many mails as a (compressed) batch instead of transporting every single mail. So bsmtp is an alternative to rmail.
Special features of this bsmtp package: - Completely written in C. - Configurable batch size (automatically sends batch to uux when a defined size is reached). - Creates backups of all outgoing batches (and removes them regularly) - Works with sendmail and postfix.
btoa Convert binary to ascii and vice versa
Btoa converts 4 binary characters to 5 ascii ones, causing a 25% expansion. Spaces will not be used, which should make it safe to send files over Usenet without risking that blanks become tabs.
btyacc Backtracking parser generator based on byacc
btyacc is a hacked version of the original Berkeley "byacc". The main change to byacc is the addition of backtracking code, allowing you to try both alternatives in case of shift-reduce or reduce-reduce conflicts. As long as no backtracking takes place, speed is comparable to bison.
Additional features: - enhanced support for storing of text position information for tokens - closes the potential *yacc/bison memory leak during error recovery - preprocessor directives like %ifdef, %include - C++ friendly
Related packages: bison, byacc, antlr

buici-clock attractive desktop clock
As clocks go, Buici satisfies the basic need of representing the time accurately and attractively. I wrote it when I began to use X as my primary desktop environment and wanted to have a decent looking clock on my desktop. I loathe digital clocks. This release has limited configurability.
build-essential Informational list of build-essential packages
If you do not plan to build Debian packages, you don't need this package. Moreover this package is not required for building Debian packages.
This package contains an informational list of packages which are considered essential for building Debian packages. This package also depends on the packages on that list, to make it easy to have the build-essential packages installed.
If you have this package installed, you only need to install whatever a package specifies as its build-time dependencies to build the package. Conversely, if you are determining what your package needs to build-depend on, you can always leave out the packages this package depends on.
This package is NOT the definition of what packages are build-essential; the real definition is in the Debian Policy Manual. This package contains merely an informational list, which is all most people need. However, if this package and the manual disagree, the manual is correct.
bulkmail Speed up delivery of e-mail to large numbers of recipients.
This is a C program to do "bulk" mailing. For input, it takes a file of recipient addresses (one address per line) and a message (with headers already attached) to be sent to the recipients. It sorts the recipient list by reversed domain (so similar ones sort together), splits up the recipients into several groups containing no more than N domains each, creates an SMTP envelope for each group of recipients, and feeds that envelope to "/usr/lib/sendmail -bs".
Smartlist also contains a bulkmail-style tool.

BusyBox combines tiny versions of many common UNIX utilities into a single small executable. It provides minimalist replacements for the most common utilities you would usually find on your desktop system (i.e., ls, cp, mv, mount, tar, etc.). The utilities in BusyBox generally have fewer options than their full-featured GNU cousins; however, the options that are included provide the expected functionality and behave very much like their GNU counterparts.
BusyBox-static provides you with a statically linked simple stand alone shell that provides all the utilities available in BusyBox. This package is intended to be used as a rescue shell, in the event that you screw up your system. Invoke "busybox sh" and you have a standalone shell ready to save your system from certain destruction. Invoke "busybox", and it will list the available builtin commands.
busybox Tiny utilities for small and embedded systems.
BusyBox combines tiny versions of many common UNIX utilities into a single small executable. It provides minimalist replacements for the most common utilities you would usually find on your desktop system (i.e., ls, cp, mv, mount, tar, etc.). The utilities in BusyBox generally have fewer options than their full-featured GNU cousins; however, the options that are included provide the expected functionality and behave very much like their GNU counterparts.
This package installs the BusyBox binary but does not install symlinks for any of the supported utilities. You can use /bin/busybox --install to install BusyBox to the current directory (you do not want to do this in / on your Debian system!).

bzrelay is a firewall tunnel for bzfs. It uses TCP and allows you and your firewalled company of friends to beat into submission other BZFlag players.
bzflag a 3D first person tank battle game
BZFlag is a 3D multi-player tank battle game that allows users to play against each other in a networked environ- ment. There are five teams: red, green, blue, purple and rogue (rogue tanks are black). Destroying a player on another team scores a win, while being destroyed or destroying a teammate scores a loss. Rogues have no team- mates (not even other rogues), so they cannot shoot team- mates and they do not have a team score.
There are two main styles of play: capture-the-flag and free-for-all. In capture-the-flag, each team (except rogues) has a team base and each team with at least one player has a team flag. The object is to capture an enemy team's flag by bringing it to your team's base. This destroys every player on the captured team, subtracts one from that team's score, and adds one to your team's score. In free-for-all, there are no team flags or team bases. The object is simply to get as high a score as possible.
bzip2 A high-quality block-sorting file compressor - utilities
bzip2 is a freely available, patent free, high-quality data compressor. It typically compresses files to within 10% to 15% of the best available techniques, whilst being around twice as fast at compression and six times faster at decompression.
bzip2 compresses files using the Burrows-Wheeler block-sorting text compression algorithm, and Huffman coding. Compression is generally considerably better than that achieved by more conventional LZ77/LZ78-based compressors, and approaches the performance of the PPM family of statistical compressors.
The archive file format of bzip2 (.bz2) is incompatible with that of its predecessor, bzip (.bz).

c2man Graham Stoney's mechanized man page generator
C2man is an automatic documentation tool that extracts comments from C source code to generate functional interface documentation in the same format as sections 2 & 3 of the Unix Programmer's Manual. It requires minimal effort from the programmer by looking for comments in the usual places near the objects they document, rather than imposing a rigid function-comment syntax or requiring that the programmer learn and use a typesetting language. Acceptable documentation can often be generated from existing code with no modifications.
conformance: supports both K&R and ISO/ANSI C coding styles
Features: * generates output in nroff -man, TeXinfo, LaTeX or HTML format * handles comments as part of the language grammar * automagically documents enum parameter & return values * handles C (/* */) and C++ (//) style comments Problems: * doesn't handle C++ grammar (yet) * doxygen does this job better

flon simply uses the ~/.friends file to instruct it on which users to display. Flon can also act like a BSD style who(1), if invoked with the -w option or from a symlink named 'who'.
to is rather like write(1), except that it accepts input as command line arguments rather than on the standard input. It uses ~/.torc for configuration, and can be configured to autoreply to messages in different ways depending on whether you're logged in or not or if your terminal is idle, and can also exclude individual users from sending messages to your terminal.
catalog Tool to create,maintain and display Yahoo! like directories.
Catalog is a perl program that allows to create, maintain and display Yahoo! like directories. The user interface is 100% HTML. It requires a MySQL database to run.
The general idea behind the design of Catalog is that creating a catalog is mainly a matter of organizing objects in a structured tree. For Catalog the objects are records in a table of the SQL database. The structured tree is a set of tree nodes and relations between these nodes. The maintainer of the catalog is in charge of building the tree and placing objects in this tree.
Here is a short list of the functions provided by Catalog:
* Display structured trees of resources. * Display chronologically ordered resources and associated calendar. * Display alphabetical indexes of resources. * Allow full text search in the resources and the category names. * Powerful HTML based administration of catalogs. * On-Line editing of resource records. * Handle an arbitrary number of catalogs. * High performances using mod_perl and Apache. * Easy customization of the user view using HTML template files. * It is possible to define more than one view of the same catalog. * Load and unload a thematic catalog in XML. * Create an HTML dump of a structured tree to publish a static version. * Complete documentation including a guide and a reference manual. * Ready to use example.
catdoc MS-Word to TeX or plain text converter
This program extracts text from MS-Word files, trying to preserve as many special printable characters as possible. catdoc supports everything up to Word-97.
It doesn't even try to preserve fancy Word formatting, because Word users usually don't care about document structure, and it is this very thing which is important to LaTeX users.
Also provided is xls2csv, which extracts data from Excel spreadsheets and outputs it in comma-separated-value format.
This package suggests tk because it also includes wordview, an optional Tk-based GUI for catdoc. The MIME config provided in this package will use wordview is X is running, or catdoc directly if it is not.
catdvi DVI to plain text translator
CatDVI translates a TeX Device Independent (DVI) file into a readable plaintext file. It aims to generate high-quality output that reproduces all aspects of the DVI file within the limits of the output medium. CatDVI uses Unicode internally and can output ASCII, ISO Latin 1 and UTF-8 Unicode.
CatDVI can be used for previewing TeX documents on character-cell displays such as traditional terminals and terminal emulators. It is also possible to use it in generation of plain text documents from TeX source, assuming that the document is written with this conversion in mind.
CatDVI is under development and as such yet incomplete. However, it is quite useful even in its current form and already outperforms some of its competition in some areas.
CatDVI requires that the TFM files for all fonts used in its input DVI files are installed or can be generated by kpathsea.

cdbackup CD-R(W) backup utility
cdbackup and cdrestore are a pair of utilities designed to facilitiate streaming backup to and from CD-R(W) disks. Specificially, they were designed to work with dump/restore, but tar/cpio/whatever you want should work, so long as it writes to stdout for backups and reads from stdin for restores.
cdcd command line or console based CD player
cdcd works in two ways, accepting commands directly off the command line or in a query mode similar to other UNIX programs. To pass a command to cdcd, simply run cdcd with the command as the argument (e.g. cdcd play). This is great for using cron and cdcd together to make a CD alarm clock. Or you can run cdcd without arguments and you will be given the cdcd command prompt.
cdcontrol A parallel burner that allow you to write to one or more CD-Writter at once
CDcontrol is a parallel CD burner program. It's allow you write to a unlimited number or CD writers (IDE and SCSI) at once time. The CDcontrol is the first burning system of that type that I know for *nix operating system and it's all under GPL license.
Some of it's features are better than commercial systems that I've hear about (and fully support CD images and all data type supported by cdrecord program), one of these features is the separated control of each recorder once the recording is started (avoid problems due a fail or speed problem in other writers).
The CDcontrol itself has a daily production report for each writter and fails of writting, in cases of more serious errors, a technical report is also written (it's content is a full cdrecord output for that writter, plus the time when it happens).
Other interesting feature is the automatic calculation of copies, enabling only the writers requested to complete the number and skipping all that are disabled.
The CDcontrol come with the following tools: cd-memoria - Read the CD image and write it on the permanent memory (HD, Raid, CDRW, etc). memoria-cd - Read the CD image and write it on all writers. apagar-cdcontrol - Delete a CD image from permanent memory config-cdcontrol - Allow you to manually enable/disable one or more writers. rel-cdcontrol - Allow you to read the success/fail reports of each day (the technician report is found at the subdirectory $LOG_DIR/tec and should be read as any text file in the system).

cdfs-src shows the tracks on a CD as normal files
CDfs is a file system for Linux systems that `exports' all tracks and boot images on a CD as normal files. These files can then be mounted (e.g. for ISO and boot images), copied, played (WAVE audio and VideoCD tracks)... The primary goal for developing this file system was to `unlock' information in old ISO images.
cdindex-client cdindex is intended to be the open source replacement of cddb(tm)
cdindex is a system that allows the web based submission of title, artist information of CDs and the retrieval.
It is completely web based (cgi / html / xml) and uses a web browser for submission / retrieval.
cdlabelgen generates front cards and tray cards for CDs
cdlabelgen was designed to simplify the process of generating labels for CDs. It originated as a program to allow auto generation of front cards and tray cards for CDs burned via an automated mechanism (specifically for archiving data), but has now become popular for labelling CD compilations of mp3's, and copies of CDs. Note that cdlabelgen does not actually print anything--it just spits out postscript, which you can then do with as you please.

celestia A real-time visual space simulation
Celestia is a real-time visual simulation of space. Choose a point within the Local Group of galaxies, and Celestia will show you an approximation of how it would appear to your eyes were you actually there. Some of what Celestia shows is necessarily hypothetical--the farther away from Earth you get, the less real data there is and the more guesswork is involved. Thus Celestia supplements observational data with good guesses based on models of stellar and planetary processes.
Celestia is unique in its ability to allow you to navigate at an immense range of scales. Orbit a couple kilometers above the surface of a tiny, irregular asteroid, then head off toward Jupiter, watching it grow from a bright point of light into a looming sphere filling your field of vision. Leave our solar system entirely and observe the sun as it fades from a brilliant disk to a bright star, disappearing almost entirely as you head off toward the Upsilon Andromeda system to orbit around its innermost giant planet.

cheesetracker Sound Module Tracking Program (IT - Impulse Tracker Clone)
This program is used to create what is called 'Sound Modules', files containing samples of, for instance, piano's and guitars, and a couple of play-patterns with notes, durations and effects. If these patterns are sequenced, a melody will play according to the notes and instruments you set in the pattern. This program is a direct clone of the MSDOS program called Impulse Tracker. It's not hard to learn, and very funny to play around with. This version is only capable of loading .IT type files (the original Impulse Tracker format). To start and find some cool pre-made tunes go to ftp://ftp.scene.org/pub/music/.

chicken A simple Scheme-to-C compiler
Why CHICKEN?
- R5RS support. - SRFIs 0, 1, 2, 4, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 13, 14, 16, 18, 22 and 23 - Syntax-case highlevel macros - Lightweight threads based on first-class continuations - Pattern matching with Andrew Wright's match package - Record structures - A simple and straightforward module system - An object system with multiple inheritance, multimethods and a meta-object protocol - Separated compilation poses no problem and full tail-recursion and first-class continuations are suported. - Extended comment- and string-literal syntaxes - Libraries for regular expressions, string handling, Common LISP style format, UNIX system calls and extended data structures - Create interpreted or compiled shell scripts written in Scheme - Compiled C files can be easily distributed - Generates quite portable C code and compiled files generated by it (including itself) should work without any change on DOS, Windows, most UNIX-like platforms, and with minor changes on other systems. - Linkage to C modules and C library functions is straightforward. Compiled programs can easily be embedded into existing C code. - Simple. It can be used as a pedagogical tool for anybody who is interested in the workings of a compiler. - Extendable, since its code generation scheme, runtime system, and garbage collector fit neatly into a C environment. - Offers better performance than nearly all interpreter based implementations, but still provides full Scheme semantics. - Probably is the first implementation of Scheme that uses Henry Baker's [Cheney on the M.T.A] concept.
Usually, you will also need to install the chicken-dev package. The source files are not included since you could easily get them with the Debian source package. If you really feel the needs to get them under /usr/share/chicken/src, then please let me know.
There are many Scheme implementations available in Debian, have a look at each of them! Have fun!

chrony It sets your computer's clock from time servers on the Net.
It consists of a pair of programs : `chronyd'. This is a daemon which runs in background on the system. It obtains measurements (e.g. via the network) of the system's offset relative to other systems, and adjusts the system time accordingly. For isolated systems, the user can periodically enter the correct time by hand (using `chronyc'). In either case, `chronyd' determines the rate at which the computer gains or loses time, and compensates for this. `chronyc'. This is a command-line driven control and monitoring program. An administrator can use this to fine-tune various parameters within the daemon, add or delete servers etc whilst the daemon is running.

which parses the command-line of a typical C-program and returns the result in a structure of type Cmdline. Besides parseCmdline(), the function
void usage(void)
is generated and will be called by the command-line parser if the command line contains obvious errors. One of the main reasons to use clig is the automatic generation of a usage()-function which is always up-to- date with respect to the options actually understood by the program. Additionally, clig creates a manual page. For more information, see http://wsd.iitb.fhg.de/~kir/clighome/.

conquest a real-time, curses based, multi-player space warfare game
Conquest is a predecessor of netrek.
The object of the game is twofold. The short-range goal is to accumulate "kills" by shooting down enemy players. You get one kill point for each enemy ship shot down, plus some extra if the enemy had kills too. The major weapon used to shoot down ships is the photon torpedo.
The long-range goal is to conquer the universe for your team by taking every planet. You take planets by killing off the enemy's armies via bombardment, and then beaming your team's armies down. When all the planets have been taken, the game ends, a new game begins, and the player who actually took the last planet gets his/her name up in lights.
cons A Perl replacement for Make
Excerpted from the README file:
Cons is a system for constructing, primarily, software, but is quite different from previous software construction systems. Cons was designed from the ground up to deal easily with the construction of software spread over multiple source directories. Cons makes it easy to create build scripts that are simple, understandable and maintainable. Cons ensures that complex software is easily and accurately reproducible.
Cons uses a number of techniques to accomplish all of this. Construction scripts are just Perl scripts, making them both easy to comprehend and very flexible. Global scoping of variables is replaced with an import/export mechanism for sharing information between scripts, significantly improving the readability and maintainability of each script. Construction environments are introduced: these are Perl objects that capture the information required for controlling the build process. Multiple environments are used when different semantics are required for generating products in the build tree. Cons implements automatic dependency analysis and uses this to globally sequence the entire build. Variant builds are easily produced from a single source tree. Intelligent build subsetting is possible, when working on localized changes. Overrides can be setup to easily override build instructions without modifying any scripts. MD5 cryptographic signatures are associated with derived files, and are used to accurately determine whether a given file needs to be rebuilt.
conserver-client connect to a console server
This is the client to connect to a console server.
conserver-server connect multiple user to a serial console with logging
Conserver is an application that allows multiple users to watch a serial console at the same time. It can log the data, allows users to take write-access of a console (one at a time), and has a variety of bells and whistles to accentuate that basic functionality. The idea is that conserver will log all your serial traffic so you can go back and review why something crashed, look at changes (if done on the console), or tie the console logs into a monitoring system (just watch the logfiles it creates). With multi-user capabilities you can work on equipment with others, mentor, train, etc. It also does all that client-server stuff so that, assuming you have a network connection, you can interact with any of the equipment from home or wherever.

cpbk a mirroring utility for backing up your files
Backup Copy is basically a smart copy program that allows a user to copy mass files from one place to another. When coping over a previous copy, the key features will allow coping only of new or non existing files in the backup. This results in saving time and less load on the drive. Built into the same feature of copying new files only, is a file removal procedure. If a file is removed from the source path, the same file will be removed when the next backup is performed. This provides a backup that is exactly the same as the source without filling up the drive. As an added option, all files that will be overwritten or deleted when doing a copy over a previous backup, have the opportunity to be stored in a trash bin. You can leave this trash bin to grow and grow just in case you need a backup of your backup. When you start running out of disk space you will need to remove or clean up the trash bin.

cproto generate C function prototypes and convert function definitions
Cproto is a program that generates function prototypes and variable declarations from C source code. It can also convert function definitions between the old style and the ANSI C style. This conversion overwrites the original files, so make a backup copy of your files in case something goes wrong.
crack-attack multiplayer OpenGL puzzle game like "Tetris Attack"
Crack Attack is an OpenGL puzzle game based on the Super Nintendo game "Tetris Attack". Slowly, your stack of colored blocks grows from the bottom, and you've got to make sure it never reaches the top. If it does, you lose. To eliminate blocks from the stack, line up at least three of one color, horizontally or vertically. Once you do, those blocks disappear, and put off slightly your inevitable demise.
Crack Attack is very slow without hardware acceleration. For XFree users, this means you want DRI.
cracklib-runtime A pro-active password checker library
Run-time support programs which use the shared library in cracklib2 including programs to build the password dictionary databases used by the functions in the shared library.
cracklib2-dev a pro-active password checker library

Cram file systems are used for Debian INITRD images.
crank A classical CRypto ANalysis toolKit
Crank is short for "CRyptANalysis toolKit", and its overall purpose is to provide a powerful and extensible environment for solving classical (pen-and-paper) ciphers, providing as much automation as possible.
Classical ciphers include common schemes like monoalphabetic substitutions, where each letter of the alphabet is mapped to another (usually different) letter consistently through the text. The first version of Crank is restricting itself to these special ciphers.
Other algorithms forever devoid of Crank's attentions include Enigma, RSA, DES, MurkelFish, or anything else invented after 1900.
crashmail JAM and *.MSG capable Fidonet tosser
CrashMail II is basically a more portable version of CrashMail, a tosser for Amiga computers. Users of the old Amiga version will probably find some things familiar while some features are gone such as the ARexx port (for obvious reasons!) and the GUI configuration editor. The only feature that CrashMail II has and the old CrashMail hasn't is support for JAM messagebases.
crashme Stress tests operating system stability
crashme generates strings of random bytes and then attempts to execute them. Used to test kernel stability.
**WARNING** While Linux has been known to survive days and weeks of crashme, IT IS NOT GUARANTEED THAT YOUR SYSTEM WILL SURVIVE! DO NOT USE THIS PROGRAM UNLESS YOU REALLY WANT TO CRASH YOR COMPUTER

cricket Program for collection and display of time-series data
This is Cricket. It is a configuration, polling, and data-display engine wrapped around the RRD tool by Tobias Oetiker. There are three user-visible pieces to Cricket: the collector, the grapher, and the config tree. The collector runs from cron and fetches data from a number of devices according to the info it finds in the config tree. The grapher is a CGI application that allows users to traverse the config tree from a web browser and see the data that the collector recorded.
crimson A hex-based tactical game
Crimson Fields is a hex-based tactical war game in the tradition of Battle Isle (tm). Two players command their units on a map of hexagons, trying to accomplish mission objectives ranging from defending important locations to simply destroying all enemy forces. The game can either be played in 'hot seat' mode or via email. There's no AI opponent, yet. A simple editor can be used to create custom level files.
criticalmass Shoot-em-up a la galaxian
criticalmass, aka critter, is a shootemup in the style of Galaxian with very colorful and smooth graphics (provided that you have 3d acceleration)
Note: criticalmass uses OpenGL, and will probably not run well if you do not have a 3d accelerator which is supported by X.
cron-apt Automatic update of packages using apt
This package contains a tool that is run by a cron job at regular intervals. By default it just updates the package list and download new packages without installing. You can instruct it to run anything that you can do with apt-get.
It also sends mail (configurable) to the system administrator on errors.
Observe that this tool is a security risk, so you should not set it to do more than necessary (automatic upgrade of all packages is NOT recommended).
cron management of regular background processing
cron is a background process (`daemon') that runs programs at regular intervals (for example, every minute, day, week or month); which processes are run and at what times are specified in the `crontab'.
Users may also install crontabs so that processes are run on their behalf, though this feature can be disabled or restricted to particular users.
Output from the commands is usually mailed to the system administrator (or to the user in question); you should probably install a mail system as well so that you can receive these messages.
This cron package is configured by default to do various standard system maintenance tasks, such as ensuring that logfiles do not grow endlessly and overflow the disk.
The lockfile-progs package is only a "Suggests" because of the poor way that dselect handles "Recomments", but I do strongly suggest that you install it; it prevents /etc/cron.daily/standard from running multiple times if something gets jammed.
cronolog Logfile rotator for web servers
A simple program that reads log messages from its input and writes them to a set of output files, the names of which are constructed using template and the current date and time. The template uses the same format specifiers as the Unix date command (which are the same as the standard C strftime library function).
It intended to be used in conjunction with a Web server, such as Apache, to split the access log into daily or monthly logs:
TransferLog "|/usr/sbin/cronolog /var/log/apache/%Y/access.%Y.%m.%d.log"
A cronosplit script is also included, to convert existing traditionally-rotated logs into this rotation format.
cronosii fast, light-weight and functional GNOME e-mail client
Cronos II is a powerful GNOME e-mail client. It has been designed to be fast, light, user-friendly, yet strong. Its strength resides in the extended configuration, that the user can manage dynamically without touching any code at all. The friendly aspect resides in the intuitive interface and in the simplicity of the environment and in the full compatibility with the GNOME Project.

csmash CannonSmash, a table tennis simulation game
CannonSmash is a funny 3D table tennis game. It takes a while to get your hand at ease with the mouse+keyboard manipulations. But once you're used to the technique, you can feel like playing a real game. It is playable against the computer or through a network.
Since csmash relies on OpenGL-compatible rendering, it is best experienced with a 3D accelerator card, although software rendering in wireframe mode should be sustainable.
csound-doc Documentation for Csound.
This package contains documentation for CSound, which is distributed separately.
css-mode A Cascading Style Sheets (CSS) editing mode for Emacs
This is a simple Emacs mode for editing CSS style sheets. It adds font-locking and some basic auto-indentation support to Emacs. It works with Emacs 19.34, but should also work with both older and newer versions as well as XEmacs.
While CSS has a C-like syntax, this mode does a better job than cc-mode of handling the features of the CSS language. It supports both CSS Level 1 and Level 2.
Home Page: http://www.garshol.priv.no/download/software/css-mode/
cssc Clone of the Unix SCCS revision-control system.

curl-ssl Pseudopackage for migration from Debian 2.2 (potato).
This pseudopackage contains only the required dependencies to smooth the migration from Debian 2.2 (potato).
Now curl SSL functionality is bound to the one of the libcurl it is installed with. So if you want a curl with SSL support disabled you have to install curl and libcurl2 together, if instead you want a curl with SSL support enabled you have to install curl and libcurl2-ssl together.
This package depends on curl and libcurl2-ssl to force the SSL support into curl, nothing more. In fact if it is still installed on your system you are encouraged to remove it.
curl Get a file from an FTP, GOPHER, HTTP or HTTPS server.
curl is a client to get documents/files from servers using any of the supported protocols. The command is designed to work without user interaction or any kind of interactivity.
curl offers a busload of useful tricks like proxy support, user authentication, ftp upload, HTTP post, file transfer resume and more.
This package is able to handle SSL requests only if installed together with libcurl2-ssl.
More informations can be found at the curl web site http://curl.haxx.se .

curves colorful console interface for CVS version control
CurVeS performs two functions. It provides a menu and command completion interface to CVS so that inexperienced users can learn the features of CVS without documentation. This includes the creation of some meta-features built upon standard CVS commands that commonly are used together. The second function of CurVeS is to provide visual presentation of a project directory so that the status of each file is comprehensible at a glance. CurVeS uses color, when available, to accent the file classification marks.

cuyo Tetris-like game with very impressive effects.
Cuyo, named after a Spanish possessive pronoun, shares with tetris that things fall down and how to navigate them. When enough "of the same type" come "together", they explode. The goal of each level is to blow special "stones" away, you start with. But what "of the same type" and "together" means, varies with the levels. If you hear someone shout that a dragon is always burning his elephants, so that he is not able to blow the volcano away, there a good chances to find Cuyo on his screen. WARNING: It is known to successfully get many people away from more important things to do.
cvm Credential Validation Modules
CVM is a framework for validating a set of credentials against a database using a filter program. The modules act as a filter, taking a set of credentials as input and writing a set of facts as output if those credentials are valid. Optional input is given to the module through environment variables.
Some of the ideas for CVM came from experience with PAM (pluggable authentication modules), the checkpassword interface used by qmail-pop3d, and the "authmod" interface used by Courier IMAP and POP3. This framework places fewer restrictions on the invoking client than checkpassword does, and is much simpler to implement on both sides than PAM and the authmod framework.
See http://untroubled.org/cvm/cvm.html for more information.
cvs-buildpackage Debian package scripts for CVS source trees.
This package provides the capability to inject or import Debian source packages into a CVS repository, build a Debian package from the CVS repository, and helps in integrating upstream changes into the repository.
The import or inject process takes a dsc (Debian source control) file, and imports it into CVS. The module path can maintains distribution and section information; for example, one may inject hemm/hemm/devel/make into the repository.
The build process works analogously to dpkg-buildpackage, and can be used from within the checked out source tree, or with additional information, can be used from anywhere. In the latter case, you can build any previous version of the package, as long as the corresponding orig.tar.gz file is still around. The build script checks out the relevant version from the CVS repository, and runs dpkg-buildpackage to create the Debian package.
Combined, these utilities provide an infrastructure to facilitate the use of CVS by Debian maintainers. This allows one to keep separate CVS branches of a package for stable, unstable, and possibly experimental distributions, along with the other benefits of a version control system.
This can be used to generate a unified CVS source tree, for example.
cvs-conf Manage your configuration via CVS
cvs-conf allows users to manage their configuration files using CVS. On the server, a global configuration project is created and each host is a part of the global configuration. The advantage of cvs-conf is its capacity to restore all file permissions when installing files (user, group and rwx).
cvs-pcl Concurrent Versions System Emacs extension (pcl-cvs)
This is a lisp extension to emacs to support a "CVS mode". In order to use it, you need to already have a checked-out module. For more information, see the documentation. PCL-CVS is included as part of Xemacs, so you don't need to install this package if you wish to use PCL-CVS under Xemacs.
cvs2cl CVS-log-message-to-ChangeLog conversion script
This perl script produces a GNU-style ChangeLog for CVS-controlled sources, by running "cvs log" and parsing the output. Duplicate log messages get unified in the Right Way.
cvs2html create HTML versions of CVS logs
cvs2html is program that transforms the 'cvs log' output into a HTML file. The program can be used on any type of cvs archive, but since it invokes cvs itself, it needs to be run in a machine having a local checked out copy of the archive and access to the repository.
cvs Concurrent Versions System
CVS is a version control system, which allows you to keep old versions of files (usually source code), keep a log of who, when, and why changes occurred, etc., like RCS or SCCS. Unlike the simpler systems, CVS does not just operate on one file at a time or one directory at a time, but operates on hierarchical collections of directories consisting of version controlled files.
CVS helps to manage releases and to control the concurrent editing of source files among multiple authors. CVS allows triggers to enable/log/control various operations and works well over a wide area network.
cvsbook-ja Open Source Development with CVS ; Japanese Translation
This is an online version of a book written by Karl Fogel et al. This book covers CVS, starting with a tutorial and going to cover repository administration, more advanced topics, trouble shooting and so on.

cvsgraph Create a tree of revisions/branches from a CVS/RCS file.
CvsGraph was inspired by the graph option from WinCVS. It represents the revisions and branches in a CVS/RCS file in a graphical tree structure, also listing any tags associated with any given revision.
cvsps Tool to generate CVS patch set information
CVSps is a program for generating 'patch set' information from a CVS repository. A patch set in this case is defined as a set of changes made to a collection of files, all committed at the same time (using a single 'cvs commit' command). This information is valuable for seeing the big picture of the evolution of a CVS project. While CVS tracks revision information, it is often difficult to see what changes were committed 'atomically' to the repository.
cvsutils CVS utilities for use in working directories
Several utilities which are used to facilitate working with the files in the working directory of a developer using CVS.
The utilities included in this package are:
+ cvsu: Offline "cvs update" simulator. Lists the files found in the current directory (or in the directories which you specify). + cvsco: "Cruel checkout". Removes results of compilation and discards local changes. Deletes all the files except listed unmodified ones and checks out everything which seems to be missing. + cvsdiscard: Discards local changes but keeps results of compilation. Works like "cvsco", but only deletes files which are likely to cause merge conflicts. + cvspurge: CVS-based "make maintainer-clean". Removes results of compilation but keeps local changes intact. Removes unknown files, but keeps changes in files known to CVS. + cvstrim: Removes files and directories unknown to CVS. + cvschroot: Makes it possible to change CVS/Root in all subdirectories to the given value. + cvsrmadm: Removes all CVS directories in the project. It is safer if you occasionally make mistakes in the "find" commands. + cvsdo: Simulates some of the CVS commands (currently add, remove and diff) without any access to the CVS server.

cweb-latex LaTeX support for CWEB.
This is the distribution of LaTeX CWEB, a bundle that allows you to use LaTeX as the documentation markup of your CWEB program. Your CWEB programs may be LaTeX documents now -- with sections, subsections, environments, figures, graphics inclusion, etc.
You will want to use this bundle if you - are a CWEB programmer and use LaTeX elsewhere, - haven't used CWEB up to now, because you wanted structured markup (and you didn't want to develop it yourself), or - want a hierarchic document structure for CWEB programs.
If you want to LaTeX the example program, you will need the rcs-latex package, although this is not essential.
cweb Knuth's & Levy's C/C++ programming system.
CWEB allows you to write documents which can be used simultaneously as C/C++ programs and as TeX documentation for them.
The philosophy behind CWEB is that programmers who want to provide the best possible documentation for their programs need two things simultaneously: a language like TeX for formatting, and a language like C for programming. Neither type of language can provide the best documentation by itself. But when both are appropriately combined, we obtain a system that is much more useful than either language separately.
You may also want to install the ctie package which allows one to work with multiple change files simultaneously.
cwebx C/C++ literate programming system (Marc van Leeuwen's version)
This version is a complete rewrite of Levy & Knuth's version of CWEB. It uses a slightly different syntax from the L&K version, but provides a compatibility mode allowing L&K CWEB sources to be processed, producing similar (though not necessarily identical) output.
CWEB allows you to write documents which can be used simultaneously as C/C++ programs and as TeX documentation for them.

cxref Generates latex and HTML documentation for C programs.
A program that takes as input a series of C source files and produces a LaTeX or HTML document containing a cross reference of the files/functions/variables in the program, including documentation taken from suitably formatted source code comments. The documentation is stored in the C source file in specially formatted comments, making it simple to maintain. The cross referencing includes lists of functions called, callers of each function, usage of global variables, header file inclusion, macro definitions and type definitions. Works for ANSI C, including many gcc extensions.

daemontools-installer Installer package for building daemontools binary package
The following is taken from http://cr.yp.to/daemontools.html.
daemontools is a collection of tools for managing UNIX services.
supervise monitors a service. It starts the service and restarts the service if it dies. Setting up a new service is easy: all supervise needs is a directory with a run script that runs the service.
multilog saves error messages to one or more logs. It optionally timestamps each line and, for each log, includes or excludes lines matching specified patterns. It automatically rotates logs to limit the amount of disk space used. If the disk fills up, it pauses and tries again, without losing any data.
svscan starts one supervise process for each subdirectory of the current directory, up to a limit of 1000 subdirectories. svscan skips subdirectory names starting with dots. supervise must be in svscan's path.
If a subdirectory sub is sticky, svscan starts a pair of supervise processes, one for sub, one for sub/log, with a pipe between them. svscan needs two free descriptors for each pipe.
This package fetches the source from the internet, and then proceeds to create a .deb file from it.
dailystrips view web comic strips more conveniently

Also see http://dbbalancer.sourceforge.net/ for more information.
dbench The dbench (disk) and tbench (TCP) benchmarks
dbench and tbench simulate the load of the netbench "industry standard" benchmark used to rate (windows) file servers. Unlike netbench, they do not require a lab of Microsoft Windows PCs: dbench produces the filesystem load on a netbench run, and tbench produces the network load, allowing simpler bottleneck isolation.
Note that this benchmark is *not* a realistic reflection of normal server load.
dbf2mysql xBase <--> MySQL

dcd Command-line CD player
dcd (Dave's CD player) is a small CD player, for people who think workbone is too bloated and graphical. All functions are accessible from the command line. Loop tracks in the background, use it with 'at' as an alarm clock, whatever.
dcgui Direct Connect Graphical client (GTK+) (peer-based file-sharing)
dc_gui is a gtk front-end for the dctc program. dctc handles all communication with dc hubs and clients, while dcgui presents an interface that has many of the features of the original directconnect client, plus some really useful improvements.
It is intended for peer-based file-sharing. In practise it works better than gnutella and other similar systems as it allows dc hubs (servers) administators to require clients to share specified amount of data. The amount is usually based on type of client's connection and it is used not to hurt or exclude anybody but to make file sharing "fair play".
dcgui is still alpha, so some care has to be taken - try it out!
dclock Digital clock for the X Window System with flexible display.
Dclock main feature is its great flexibility in how it can draw. You can even display the output from "date" in it such as "Wednesday, 3rd Jan". Dclock also supports setting an alarm.

In practise it works better than gnutella and other similar systems as it allows dc hubs (servers) administators to require clients to share specified amount of data. The amount is usually based on type of client's connection and it is used not to hurt or exclude anybody but to make file sharing "fair play".
It is *really* not intended to be used "by hand". Instead You should install and use dcgui program.
ddclient Update dynamic IP address at DynDNS.org
A perl based client to update your dynamic IP address at DynDNS.org (or other dynamic DNS services such as Hammernode, Zoneedit or EasyDNS), thus allowing you and others to use a fixed hostname (myhost.dyndns.org) to access your machine. This client supports both the dynamic and (near) static services, MX setting, and alternative host. It caches the address, and only attempts the update if the address actually changes.
For more information on DynDNS.org, see http://www.dyndns.org/.

ddd The Data Display Debugger, a graphical debugger frontend.
The Data Display Debugger (DDD) is a popular graphical user interface to UNIX debuggers such as GDB, DBX, XDB, JDB and others. Besides ``usual'' front-end features such as viewing source texts and breakpoints, DDD provides an interactive graphical data display, where data structures are displayed as graphs. Using DDD, you can reason about your application by watching its data, not just by viewing it execute lines of source code.
Other DDD features include: debugging of programs written in Ada, C, C++, Chill, Fortran, Java, Modula, Pascal, Perl and Python; machine-level debugging; hypertext source navigation and lookup; breakpoint, backtrace, and history editors; preferences and settings editors; program execution in terminal emulator window; debugging on remote host; on-line manual; interactive help on the Motif user interface; GDB/DBX/XDB command-line interface with full editing, history, and completion capabilities.
This version is linked against Lesstif, an LGPL-ed implementation of Motif.

debbugs-el Access the Debian BTS from within Emacs
This package contains:
* debian-bug.el, an Elisp function to submit a bug from within Emacs. * gnus-BTS.el, an enhancement to Gnus to provide buttons on bug numbers seen in Debian-related messages.
debbugs The bug tracking system based on the active Debian BTS
Debian has a bug tracking system which files details of bugs reported by users and developers. Each bug is given a number, and is kept on file until it is marked as having been dealt with. The system is mainly controlled by e-mail, but the bug reports can be viewed using WWW.
This version is fully functional, but it does not autoconfig, see /usr/share/doc/debbugs/README.Debian after installation.
Note: there might be some appearance issues where the a display variable doesn't expand as expected.

debfoster Install only wanted Debian packages
debfoster is a wrapper program for apt and dpkg. When first run, it will ask you which of the installed packages you want to keep installed.
After that, it maintains a list of packages that you want to have installed on your system. It uses this list to detect packages that have been installed only because other packages depended on them. If one of these dependencies changes, debfoster will take notice, and ask if you want to remove the old package.
This helps you to maintain a clean Debian install, without old (mainly library) packages lying around that aren't used any more.
debget download/compile source and binary Debian packages
debget downloads source and binary Debian packages by name. It doesn't require a local copy of the Packages files, instead it lists directories on the FTP site to find out what versions are available.
debget can also optionally unpack and compile source packages, and even install the generated binary packages. If you intend to use these features you should install the devscripts package for the dscverify script it contains.
debhelper helper programs for debian/rules

defoma Debian Font Manager -- automatic font configuration framework.
Defoma, which stands for DEbian FOnt MAnager, provides a framework of automatic font configuration. An application whose configuration of fonts requires users' hand can make the configuration process automated through Defoma, by installing a Defoma-configuration script to Defoma. The script gets called whenever a font is installed and removed, so that the script updates the configuration. Font packages should register their fonts to Defoma in order to have them configured automatically for applications.

dfontmgr GUI frontend for defoma, DEbian FOnt MAnager.
dfontmgr is a GUI frontend for defoma. You can see the fonts registered to defoma, their hints, their status (which applications they have succeeded or failed to register), the applications using defoma framework, information about the applications and the contents of their id-caches. You can also register a font by drag-and-drop a font file, which will generate as many hints as possible by asking you some questions, unregister a registered font, change hints of and re-register a registered font. If a defoma-aware application uses an id-cache and if there's an identifier conflict (which means some fonts provides the same identifier) in the id-cache, you can indicate which font should provide the identifier.
GUI versions of some utilities in defoma and psfontmgr are also installed.

diald dial on demand daemon for PPP and SLIP.
Many sites use SLIP or PPP links to connect to other sites over phone lines. Normally these links must be explicitly turned on or off. diald can be used to bring a SLIP or PPP link up when there are Internet packets to be sent to another site, and to close the link down when it is idle.
diald operates by starting a virtual link on a pseudo tty and setting up a route to the resulting interface. This interface is called the proxy. diald monitors the proxy to determine when to bring up a real communications link. When a real link is up diald routes packets from the proxy to the real link and monitors the real link to decide if it needs to be shut down. As well, if the link goes down unexpectedly diald will attempt to reestablish the link. The rules for controlling these operations are extensively configurable in run time startup files.
Diald requires that you use either the ethertap interface (available in recent Linux kernels) or SLIP to provide the proxy interface. Thus, one or the other of these interfaces is required for diald to work.
Diald needs a program like "chat" or "expect" to actually dial. Sorry, "dip" cannot be used.

diff-doc Documentation for GNU diffutils.
This package contains the HTML documentation for GNU diffutils.
diff File comparison utilities
The diff package provides the diff, diff3, sdiff, and cmp programs.
`diff' shows differences between two files, or each corresponding file in two directories. `cmp' shows the offsets and line numbers where two files differ. `cmp' can also show all the characters that differ between the two files, side by side. `diff3' shows differences among three files. `sdiff' merges two files interactively.
The set of differences produced by `diff' can be used to distribute updates to text files (such as program source code) to other people. This method is especially useful when the differences are small compared to the complete files. Given `diff' output, the `patch' program can update, or "patch", a copy of the file.
diffmon Tool for reporting changes in system configuration.
This tool is run by a nightly cron job, and takes a `diff' of specified system configuration files and emails them to a specified email address. Options to diff can be specified. This is useful in friendly environments where there are multiple sysadmins working on configuration files/setups and everyone's changes are reported. CVS is a better answer, but most of us don't want to have the hassle of putting system files in a repository.
diffstat produces graph of changes introduced by a diff file
This program is a simple that reads the output of the 'diff' program, and produces a histogram of the total number of lines that were changed. It is useful for scanning a patch file to see which files were changed.
digitaldj An SQL based mp3 player front-end
DigitalDJ is an SQL-based front-end to the mpg123 mp3 player designed for people who want to create an mp3 version of their CD collection. It is designed to work with the Grip ripping/encoding application (but can be used separately). When Grip encodes mp3 files, it will place all of the song information into an SQL database. DigitalDJ can then use this information to create playlists based on a number of criteria.
You will need a MySQL server, which can either be on the local or a remote host.

You have to install some translation dictionary word list with a word/phrase in two languages in one line with some kind of separator between them. The default configuration of ding uses the German-English dictionary which can be found in the trans-de-en package, but you can use every other translation word lists with one entry per line.
diploma Write scientific papers with Debian
Debian GNU/Linux is widely used at universities to do research and to write papers with LaTeX. The package diploma contains examples which illustrate the possible ways to do this effectively with Debian GNU/Linux. Each example consists of a source tree where you can do "make" in the top level directory and then the source code is compiled, the measurement data are processed, and the results are converted into nice figures. Then the text is processed and combined with the figures to a print file.
dircproxy IRC proxy for people who use IRC from different workstations
dircproxy is an IRC proxy server designed for people who use IRC from lots of different workstations or clients, but wish to remain connected and see what they missed while they were away. You connect to IRC through dircproxy, and it keeps you connected to the server, even after you detach your client from it. While you're detached, it logs channel and private messages as well as important events, and when you re-attach it'll let you know what you missed.
This can be used to give you roughly the same functionality as using ircII and screen together, except you can use whatever IRC client you like, including X ones!
dirdiff Display and merge changes between two directory trees.
Dirdiff can handle up to 5 trees. It displays a main window with a list of the files which are different between the trees, with colored squares to indicate the relative ages of the versions. A menu allows you to display the differences between any two of the versions in another window. Another menu allows you to copy the file from one tree to another.
directory-administrator LDAP POSIX user/group manager for gnome.
Directory administrator is an LDAP POSIX user/group manager. That, in plain English, means that it will allow you to easily manage your Linux/UNIX users and groups residing in an LDAP database.

discover-data hardware lists for libdiscover1
The libdiscover1 library requires this package to look up information about various hardware devices using the identification data that they report. It contains data detailing various PCI, PCMCIA, and USB devices.
discover hardware identification system
Discover is a hardware identification system based on the libdiscover1 library. Discover provides a flexible interface that programs can use to report a wide range of information about the hardware that is installed on a Linux system. In addition to reporting information, discover includes support for doing hardware detection at boot time. Detection occurs in two stages: The first stage, which runs from an initial ramdisk (initrd), loads just the drivers needed to mount the root file system, and the second stage loads the rest (ethernet cards, sound cards, etc.).
diskless-image-secure Files required for secure NFS-Root image.
This package contains files required to boot an NFS-Root disk image. It also contains template files for setting up individual hosts.
Using this package is more secure then diskless-image-simple, as only one partition needs read-write access, and it is completely refreshed from a read-only NFS mount on every boot. If you suspect somebody has cracked into your NFS-root host, rebooting it will restore it back to its original state. However, this makes it slower to boot then the diskless-image-simple.
WARNING: This package can and will break your computer. Do not install manually. It should only be installed via the diskless-newimage, part of the diskless package.
diskless-image-simple Files required for simple NFS-Root image.
This package contains files required to boot an NFS-Root disk image. It also contains template files for setting up individual hosts.
WARNING: This package can and will break your computer. Do not install manually. It should only be installed via the diskless-newimage, part of the diskless package.
diskless Generate NFS file structure for diskless boot.
This package comes with two programs, diskless_newimage, and diskless_newhost to simplify setting up and maintaining diskless clients NFS-Root file structure.
These programs ask user friendly questions to aid configuration of the diskless system to the administrators preference.
Either the diskless-image-simple or diskless-image-secure packages are required to be available (NOT INSTALLED!) in order to use this package.

dist Tools for developing, maintaining and distributing software.
The dist package is a set of tools meant to ease the construction and maintenance of portable software.
The first component is the Configure script generator, metaconfig, which automatically builds the Configure script from your sources. Ideally, the end-user receiving your source code will simply have to read your README file, run the Configure script (which is self-documented), and then run make.
The second component is the Makefile.SH generator, which is a generic configured Makefile, reusing some of the information figured out by Configure, and a generic Jmakefile description.
The third component is the RCS aware package generator, which is used when it's time to build up the shell archives used to distribute your program.
The fourth and latest component is the patch generator, used to make updates of your sources, which can later be applied on the original distribution by using the patch program. The upstream sources for this packlage may be downloaded from CPAN, like so: http://search.cpan.org/doc/RAM/dist-3.0@70
distmp3 Client/daemon for distributed MP3 compression over TCP/IP
Client (distmp3) and a daemon (distmp3host) for distributed mp3-encoding across multiple hosts on a network.
distributed-net donate unused CPU cycles - client for distributed.net
Donate your extra CPU cycles to a worthy cause!
distributed.net started in 1997 as a project whose purpose was to win a series of contests sponsored by RSA Data Security Inc., to crack their RC5 encryption by brute-force methods. These contests were meant to show governments of nations such as the United States, who limit exports or use of cryptography, that the standards allowed are too weak for general use.
Since this time, distributed.net has changed their focus from solely cracking RSA's RC5 and DES projects to working on more diverse distributed computing problems.
The ongoing projects are RC5-64 and Optimal Golumb Rulers (24-mark), the latter of which has practical applications in science. There are also a number of other projects which are either periodic or upcoming. You may choose which project you wish to participate in.
By installing this package, unused CPU cycles on your computer will be used to work on cracking the code. There should be no noticeable slowdown of your system, since the client runs niced, and only uses CPU time when your computer would otherwise be idle.
For more information, see http://www.distributed.net/
ditty Allows you to play melodies from your built-in speaker
Ditty enables you to play simple melodies from the command line. It does NOT require a sound card, as it can use the built-in speaker to play these melodies just as easily. (Note: in order for the built-in speaker to be used, ditty's stdout must be connected to a tty. Certain terminal emulators, such as xterm, don't support the sound controls. If you aren't using the sound card method, you should generally run ditty from a *real* pseudo-terminal).
Some things that may make ditty fun to use are: Adding sound-effects to .bash_login and .bash_logout or other shellscripts.

djbdns-installer Source only package for building djbdns
The following were taken from various HTML pages under http://cr.yp.to/djbdns.html/
dnscache is a local DNS cache. It accepts recursive DNS queries from local clients such as web browsers and mail transfer agents. It collects responses from remote DNS servers. It caches the responses to save time later.
tinydns is a DNS server. It accepts iterative DNS queries from hosts around the Internet, and responds with locally configured information.
pickdns is a load-balancing DNS server. It accepts iterative DNS queries from hosts around the Internet, and responds with a dynamic selection of locally configured IP addresses with 5-second TTLs.
walldns is a reverse DNS wall. It accepts iterative DNS queries for in-addr.arpa domains from hosts around the Internet, and supplies generic responses that avoid revealing local host information.
rbldns is an IP-address-listing DNS server. It accepts iterative DNS queries from hosts around the Internet asking about various IP addresses. It provides responses showing whether the addresses are on a locally configured list, such as RBL or DUL.
axfrdns is a DNS zone-transfer server. It reads a zone-transfer request in DNS-over-TCP format from its standard input, and responds with locally configured information.
The security of this software is guaranteed by the author. Details of the guarantee can be found at http://cr.yp.to/djbdns/guarantee.html

Designed for Unix, dlint is written in Bourne Shell and Perl.
You may try it online at http://www.domtools.com/dns/dlint.shtml (this server imposes a timeout period; to lint a big zone, you should install dlint yourself and use it locally - that's what this package is for).
dlocate fast alternative to dpkg -L and dpkg -S

docbook SGML DTD for authors of technical documentation
DocBook is an SGML vocabulary particularly well suited to books and papers about computer hardware and software (though it is by no means limited to these applications). It has emerged as an open, standard DTD in the software industry, and is used to document many free software projects.
This package contains the SGML DTD for DocBook, which describes the formal structure of documents complying this format. If you wish to author XML documents, see the 'docbook-xml' package. It is a part of Debian's SGML/XML infrastructure, along with other DTDs, tools for parsing, validating, and styling, and formatting SGML and XML documents.
This package includes the 2.4.1, 3.0, 3.1, 4.0, and 4.1 versions of the DocBook SGML DTD.

Dpsyco introduces the concept of configuration packages. It is a special form of debian packages that is applied on top of the original debian packages. With this you can add users, groups, apply a file skeleton, patch things and more. Observe! No such configuration packages should be uploaded to the debian archives. This kind of things are intended to be created and used by the system administrator only.
For more information see http://www.opal.dhs.org/programs/dpsyco/.
This tool is very useful if you have a lot of servers on which you want to have similar configuration (but not identical). If you only have one server (or client) this is probably not useful at all.
WARNING! Users with UID and GID between 500 and 999 will be automatically administrated by this tool. This means that if you do not have a admin package that set up users these users WILL BE REMOVED. Groups with GID between 300 and 499 will be handled in the same way. YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED!

EXT2FS stands for "Extended Filesystem", version 2. It's the filesystem type used for hard disks on Debian and other Linux systems.
This package contains the headers and shared libraries needed to compile ext2fs-aware programs. Only programmers that really manipulate features specific to the ext2 filesystem will need this. Most programmers will use the generic filesystem-independent interface from libc.
It also contains dev files for the e2p lib used by the e2fsprogs, but which is not yet packaged all by itself because it lacks documentation. It may also lack some support files, by I can't really know until someone uses it...
libe2p is for user-level e2fsprogs commands. It's used by dumpe2fs, chattr, and lsattr. Functions in libe2p typically have two characteristics (a) don't require that block device containing the filesystem be opened directly (functions in libext2fs do), and (b) libe2p typically contains printf statements or parse user input, and so have more internationalization issues.
e2fsprogs-bf A stripped-down versions of e2fsprogs, for boot-floppies
This package is an e2fsprogs package built for a reduced size, so that it can help to save space on installation boot-floppies.

Documentation for the epic4 irc client. Used from within epic4 with the /help command.
epic4-script-hienoa A script for ircII-EPIC4
Hienoa is a script for ircII-EPIC4. It has many nice features such as userlist and themes. The main goals for hienoa are stability and ease of use while still trying to look good.
epic4-script-lice Very functional script for epic
LiCe is a script designed for the ircII and EPIC irc clients; it radically improves the usability of these clients, providing features and enhancements that pioneered the way for a whole crowd of imitators. Though there is now much diversity, thousands of LiCe users still declare it the best script ever.
epic4-script-light Light - It's Just Not Lame
Light is a script for EPIC4 that tries to be a little less brain-dead than the others - it doesn't have psychotic colours or boldness, in particular.
epic4-script-splitfire the ONLY |<-lame irc script!
This epic4 script is a good script for newbies. It features: smart tab completion, bitchx-style nick completion, configuration menu, multiple auto-op lists, nick highlighting, message logging, changeable color schemes (including bitchx scheme), optional timestamping, "sane" operation (it doesn't send colors/bold/script advertising to the server ever), and a host of other things. And it's smaller than some scripts that don't do half as much to boot!
epic4-script-thirdeye Third Eye EPIC script
Third Eye is a script for the EPIC IRC client, optimized for version 4pre2.004. It's features include flood protection, nearly completely configurable ansi colors, netsplit/rejoin detection, automated login/verifications to eggdrop, nick/chanserv, and undernet cserve bots; dcc file server with access restrictions, user lists, basic X support -- pictures of people on notify list, rxvt-xpm/Eterm background switching, scrollbar toggling, etc.; Eterm transparency support, Bash-style tab completion, Themes, and much more.
epic4 epic irc client, version 4
epic4 is an irc client based on ircII. It is primarily suited to users who wish to write their own irc scripts or have irc scripts written by others.
Previous versions of epic were 100% compatible with ircII 2.8.2, though this is no longer the case. Instead we've taken a new direction and chosen to find places where compatibility with ircII is undesirable and fix them. No gratuitous incompatibilities have been added, though many new features have been.
epic Modified ircII client with additional functionality
EPIC is 100% backwards compatible with ircII because EPIC *is* ircII. EPIC was originally built upon the ircII-2.6 client and has maintained faithfulness to remain current up to the 2.8.2 release. EPIC is somewhat larger than the stock client (24%), but that is mostly because of the multitude of new features, the dual ANSI/K&R compliant function headers, and the large amount of re-written code in an attempt to make ircii faster, more efficient, and more powerful.

equivs Circumventing Debian package dependencies
This is a dummy package which can be used to create Debian packages, which only contain dependency information.
This way, you can make the Debian package management system believe that equivalents to packages on which other packages do depend on are actually installed.
Another possibility is creation of a meta package. When this package contains a dependency as "Depends: a, b, c", then installing this package will also select packages a, b and c. Instead of "Depends", you can also use "Recommends:" or "Suggests:" for less demanding dependency.
Please note that this is a crude hack and if thoughtlessly used might possibly do damage to your packaging system. And please note as well that using it is not the recommended way of dealing with broken dependencies. Better file a bug report instead.

This package also includes tools to manipulate the files used by Exult, see expack(1), textpack(1), ipack(1), splitshp(1), and shp2pcx(1) for more info.
A GIMP plugin is provided, so that if you have the GIMP installed you can edit and create game graphics with it.
exult Play Ultima VII on a decent OS
Exult is a game engine which can be used to play the classic games of Ultima VII under X11 (full-screen or in a window). The Black Gate (including Forge Of Virtue) and Serpent Isle (plus Silver Seed) are both playable to the end. Some minor differences to the originals remain, see FAQ 5.3./5.4.
While it is possible to use the engine for other games, no such game has been written yet. Therefore, Exult is useless unless you own a copy of one of the Ultima VIIs.

f2c A FORTRAN 77 to C/C++ translator, plus static & shared libs.
f2c translates FORTRAN 77 (with some extensions) into C, so that it can then be compiled and run on a system with no Fortran compiler. The C files must then be linked against the appropriate libraries.
This is an actively maintained FORTRAN to C translator and with the fort77 frontend provides an ideal way to compile FORTRAN routines as black boxes (for example for invocation from C). Source level debugging facilities are not available, and error messages are not as well developed as in g77.

fakeroot Gives a fake root environment.
This package is intended to enable something like: dpkg-buildpackage -rfakeroot i.e. to remove the need to become root for a package build. This is done by setting LD_PRELOAD to libfakeroot.so, which provides wrappers around getuid, chown, chmod, mknod, stat, ..., thereby creating a fake root environment.
If you don't understand any of this, you do not need fakeroot!
falconseye-data Data files for Falcon's Eye
Falcon's Eye is a mouse-driven interface for NetHack that enhances the visuals, audio and accessibility of the game, yet retains all the original gameplay and game features.
NetHack is a single player dungeon exploration game that runs on a wide variety of computer systems, with a variety of graphical and text interfaces all using the same game engine. Unlike many other Dungeons & Dragons-inspired games, the emphasis in NetHack is on discovering the detail of the dungeon and not simply killing everything in sight - in fact, killing everything in sight is a good way to die quickly. Each game presents a different landscape - the random number generator provides an essentially unlimited number of variations of the dungeon and its denizens to be discovered by the player in one of a number of characters: you can pick your race, your role, and your gender.

fastdnaml [Biology] A tool for construction of phylogenetic trees of DNA sequences
fastDNAml is a program derived from Joseph Felsenstein's version 3.3 DNAML (part of his PHYLIP package). Users should consult the documentation for DNAML before using this program. fastDNAml is an attempt to solve the same problem as DNAML, but to do so faster and using less memory, so that larger trees and/or more bootstrap replicates become tractable. Much of fastDNAml is merely a recoding of the PHYLIP 3.3 DNAML program from PASCAL to C.

fastforward-src aliases-style mail forwarding for qmail (source)
This is a source only package for building fastforward binary package from source, because Dan Bernstein (fastforward's author) only gives permission for fastforward to be distributed in source form.
fastforward handles qmail forwarding according to a cdb database. It can create forwarding databases from a sendmail-style /etc/aliases or from user-oriented virtual-domain tables.
fastforward supports external mailing lists, stored in a binary format for fast access. It has a tool to convert sendmail-style include files into binary lists.
fastforward is more reliable than sendmail. sendmail can't deal with long aliases, or deeply nested aliases, or deeply nested include files; fastforward has no limits other than memory. sendmail can produce corrupted alias files if the system crashes; fastforward is crashproof.
fastforward's database-building tools are much faster than sendmail's newaliases. Even better, fastforward deliveries don't pause while the database is being rebuilt.
fastforward does not support insecure sendmail-style program deliveries from include files; you can use qmail's secure built-in mechanisms instead. fastforward does support program deliveries from /etc/aliases.

This is the last stable snapshot from the CVS repository.
fcron cron-like scheduler with extended capabilities
Fcron is a scheduler. It implements most of Vixie Cron's functionalities. But contrary to Vixie Cron, fcron does not need your system to be up 7 days a week, 24 hours a day: it also works well with systems which are running neither all the time nor regularly.
Fcron also includes a useful system of options, such as: run jobs one by one, run jobs at fcron's startup if they should have been run during system down time, a better management of the mailing of outputs, set a nice value for a job...
fda C malloc debug library
Provides routines that can be plugged in to replace malloc(), realloc(), calloc(), and free().
If you're not debugging, and an allocation fails, FDA will call user supplied callbacks to allow you to free up some memory or shut down the program cleanly -- this means you don't have to check the return values from malloc if you don't want to.
For debugging FDA provides a nice toolkit for validating pointers, checking for leaks, gathering memory statistics, bounds checking and other nice things. FDA uses shredding, prefix and postfix signatures, and a liberal amount of predicate asserts.
fdclone A console-base lightweight file manager
FD(FD represents "File and Directory") is an easy-to-use file management tool for Un*x newbies.

findimagedupes Finds visually similar or duplicate images
findimagedupes is a commandline utility which performs a rough "visual diff" to two images. This allows you to compare two images or a whole tree of images and determine if any are similar or identical. The program can optionally export a GQView compatible collection file, so you can deal with the duplicates visually. On common image types, findimagedupes seems to be around 98% accurate.

flex-doc Documentation for flex (a fast lexical analyzer generator)
This package contains the HTML documentation for flex. The upstream source code can be found at the ftp site: ftp://ftp.gnu.org/pub/non-gnu/flex/
flex A fast lexical analyzer generator.
flex is a tool for generating scanners: programs which recognized lexical patterns in text. flex reads the given input files for a description of a scanner to generate. The description is in the form of pairs of regular expressions and C code, called rules. flex generates as output a C source file, lex.yy.c, which defines a routine yylex(). This file is compiled and linked with the -lfl library to produce an executable. When the executable is run, it analyzes its input for occurrences of the regular expressions. Whenever it finds one, it executes the corresponding C code.
This product includes software developed by the University of California, Berkeley and its contributors. The upstream source code can be found at ftp://ftp.gnu.org/pub/non-gnu/flex/

flip convert text file line endings between Unix and DOS formats
This program converts line endings of text files between MS-DOS and **IX formats. It detects binary files in a nearly foolproof way and leaves them alone unless you override this. It will also leave files alone that are already in the right format and preserves file timestamps. User interrupts are handled gracefully and no garbage or corrupted files left behind. 'flip' does not convert files to a different character set, and it can not handle Apple Macintosh line endings (CR only). For that (and more), you can use the 'recode' program (package 'recode').

This package contains support for Gnome and KDE.
flwm Fast Light Window Manager
Flwm is an attempt to combine the best ideas from several window managers. The primary influence and code base is from wm2 by Chris Cannam. Primary features copied from wm2 are:
- Does not look like Windoze. - Nifty sideways titlebars. - No icons. You deiconize by picking off a pop-up menu. This means no space is wasted by icons. - Really small and fast code.
It is enhanced by the author's own further nutty ideas:
- Does not use shape extension, more standard resize handles. - Occupies as little screen space as possible. The border and titles are as thin as I could possibly make them. And maximized windows waste only 15 pixels horizontally and zero (count'em) pixels vertically! - Independent maximize buttons for width & height, close button. - Understands Motif, KDE, and Gnome window manager hints. - Multiple desktops, controlled from the same menu as the icons.
flying pool/snooker/carrom/hockey/curling simulator for X11
Especially the billiards variants are very playable and nice. The only drawback is that there are no rules implemented so you have to know them yourself :-)
NOTE: The game will only run on a screen with 8 bit color depth (256 colors); displays with a color depth above 8 won't work. You've got to switch to a 8 bit display before playing the game or with XFree4.0 you could use an 8 bit overlay if available. The original author has abandoned the game so it's unlikely that the color depth problem will get fixed anytime soon. If you are able to fix the game for other depths please send the patch.

It offers the following improvements over Sierra SCI: - Improved background picture support - Trilinear filtering for text and images - readline-like editing in controls - General MIDI sound output (still experimental)
freeswan IPSEC utilities for FreeSWan
IPSEC is Internet Protocol SECurity. It uses strong cryptography to provide both authentication and encryption services. Authentication ensures that packets are from the right sender and have not been altered in transit. Encryption prevents unauthorised reading of packet contents.
These services allow you to build secure tunnels through untrusted networks. Everything passing through the untrusted net is encrypted by the IPSEC gateway machine and decrypted by the gateway at the other end. The result is Virtual Private Network or VPN. This is a network which is effectively private even though it includes machines at several different sites connected by the insecure Internet.
Please note that you will need kernel support for using this package. The standard Debian kernel does not include support for FreeSWan. You can build your own kernel by installing the kernel-source package and kernel-patch-freeswan, which can be automatically applied when using make-kpkg.
freesweep a text-based minesweeper
Freesweep is an implementation of the popular minesweeper game, where one tries to find all the mines without igniting any, based on hints given by the computer.

freetable Facilitates production of HTML tables
Freetable is a perl script that aims to make the production of HTML tables a little easier. This script works as a filter, reading stdin and writing to stdout.
The input syntax is as roughly follows:
<wwwtable table-options...> initial text (e.g. <caption> ... </caption>). (X, Y) options for cell (X, Y) text for cell (X,Y)... ((X,Y)) options for header cell X,Y text for header cell (X,Y)... </wwwtable>
Rows and cells may be specified in any order, numbering starts at 1. X and/or Y may be replaced by regular expression, explicit range or even arbitrary Perl code to indicate rows or columns. Options or text (or both) may be omitted for cells. Cells may be omitted completely if they are empty or fall under the rowspan/colspan specifications of another cell. Cells may contain arbitrary HTML text, including other freetable tables.

You WANT this game.
fsh Fast remote command execution over rsh/ssh/lsh
The problem: logging in to a remote system with a cryptographic solution such as lsh or ssh takes time, due to the computationally expensive key exchanges that occur when the connection is established. It is common to trigger a lot of remote logins while using remote CVS, which makes it painfully slow compared to having the repository locally.
The solution: reuse the secure tunnel once it has been established. fsh is a drop-in rsh-compatible replacement for ssh that automatically reuses ssh tunnels.
fsp client utilities for File Service Protocol (FSP)
FSP is an alternative to anonymous FTP. In the words of the developers, `FSP is what anonymous FTP *should* be'. FSP is a protocol, a bit like FTP, for moving files around. It's designed for anonymous archives, and has protection against server and network overloading. It doesn't use connections, so it can survive things falling over. It's also designed to prevent network congestion, so it can be very nice for large transfers over slow links.
fspanel A minimalist panel for X
It's a panel for Linux that lists all your windows, but the difference is that it's tiny. The binary is about 10k and it takes barely any memory. It works under any gnome compliant window manager (eg. E, Sawfish, WindowMaker, IceWM, Oroborus) and supports KDE's mini icons (the KWM_WIN_ICON atom).
fspd A File Service Protocol (FSP) server
FSP is an alternative to anonymous FTP that is very resource friendly. The server does not fork so it can handle far more concurrent users. Also, the protocol is designed with a transmisson failure backoff, so it's transfers do not interfere with interactive network applications.
If you don't provide anonymous FTP access, you probably don't want this software either.

A powerful and highly customizable utility to build programs and other things, that can run on Un*x, Nt, VMS, OS/2 and Macintosh MPW, using portable Jamfiles. It can build large projects spread across many directories in one pass.
It takes some time to fully apprehend, as there's no tutorial available yet, especially when one's already accustomed to make(1), but there's no comparison in power when comparing these 2 tools.
Standard rules: - can automatically extract header dependencies for C/C++ (you can customize for you own language) - provide for automatic "clean", "install", "uninstall" rules, so that an automake-like tool is not needed
ftnchek A semantic checker for Fortran 77 programs.
ftnchek (short for Fortran checker) is a tool designed to detect certain errors in a Fortran program that a compiler usually does not, thus assisting users in the debugging of their Fortran programs.
Unlike syntax errors, semantic errors are legal in the Fortran language but are wasteful or may cause incorrect operation. For example, variables which are never used may indicate some omission in the program; uninitialized variables contain garbage which may cause incorrect results to be calculated; and variables which are not declared may not have the intended type.
ftnchek can also be used to provide call-trees, cross-reference of subprogram calls and COMMON blocks usage, source listings, symbol tables and other things you might find useful when debugging a Fortran program.

ftp-ssl The FTP client with SSL encryption support.
ftp is the user interface to the ARPANET standard File Transfer Protocol. The program allows a user to transfer files to and from a remote network site.
ftp-ssl replaces normal ftp using SSL authentication and encryption. It interoperates with normal ftpd. It checks if the other side is also talking SSL, if not it falls back to normal ftp protocol.
Advantages over normal ftp(d): Your passwords and the data you send will not go in cleartext over the line. Nobody can get it with tcpdump or similar tools.
ftp-upload put files with FTP from a script
ftp-upload transfers local files to another machine using FTP. It's meant to be used by scripts and such rather than interactively. There's no user interface, the program is controlled strictly via the command line. It is disciplined with its exit status.
ftp-utils ftp support for shell scripts
ftp-utils is a small collection of shell tools for the FTP protocol. Using it, you can write shell scripts which work equally well for both local file systems and remote file systems accessed via FTP.
Included in the distribution is a simple shell script to build or maintain an FTP-mirror (pushing from origin to mirror).
ftp The FTP client.
ftp is the user interface to the ARPANET standard File Transfer Protocol. The program allows a user to transfer files to and from a remote network site.
ftpd-ssl FTP server with SSL encryption support.
This is the netkit ftp server with encryption support
ftpd-ssl replaces normal ftpd using SSL authentication and encryption. It interoperates with normal ftp. It checks if the other side is also talking SSL, if not it falls back to normal ftp protocol.
Advantages over normal ftp(d): Your passwords and the data you send will not go in cleartext over the line. Nobody can get it with tcpdump or similar tools.

ftpfs-utils Mount utils for FTP filesystem
This package contains the ftpmount utility, needed to mount the FTP filesystem.
There is also a auto.ftp helper application, which allows to use FTP ressources with autofs.
ftpgrab file mirroring utility
ftpgrab is a utility for maintaining FTP mirrors. In fact not unlike the "Mirror" perl program. However ftpgrab is oriented towards the smaller site which doesn't have the resources to mirror entire version trees of software.
The primary "plus point" of ftpgrab is that it can base download decisions by parsing version numbers out of filenames. For example, ftpgrab will recognize that the file "linux-2.2.2.tar.gz" is newer than "linux-2.2.1.tar.gz" based on the version string. It will then download the new version and delete the old one when it is done, thus saving you mirroring 10 kernel versions all at >10Mb each.

garlic-doc [Chemistry] a molecular visualization program - documents
This is the documentation package for Garlic.
Garlic is probably the most portable molecular visualization program in the Unix world. It's written for the investigation of membrane proteins. It may be used to visualize other proteins, as well as some geometric objects. The name should has something to do with the structure and operation of this program. This version of garlic recognizes PDB format version 2.1. Garlic may also be used to analyze protein sequences.
Features include (but not limited to): o The slab position and thickness are visible in a small window. o Atomic bonds as well as atoms are treated as independent drawable objects. o The atomic and bond colors depend on position. Five mapping modes are available (as for slab). o Capable to display stereo image. o Capable to display other geometric objects, like membrane. o Atomic information is available for atom covered by the mouse pointer. No click required, just move the mouse pointer over the structure! o Capable to load more than one structure. o Capable to draw Ramachandran plot, helical wheel, Venn diagram, averaged hydrophobicity and hydrophobic moment plot. o The command prompt is available at the bottom of the main window. It is able to display one error message and one command string.

gbase small numeric base converter
If you specify a number on the command line (preceded by a switch to describe the base the number is in) the program will display that number in all four bases on the console and exit. You can also specify the -s switch which will allow you to enter/display signed numbers. (This allows the use of a - (minus) before a decimal number).
Just running the program without any switches will display the main window. There are four entry boxes, corresponding to each of the four bases. You can type into any of these boxes and the others will update automagically. The program will ignore any characters that are not allowed for that particular base. It will only allow a - (minus) at the start of a decimal number, if the signed option is on.

gemdropx Gem Drop X is an interesting one-player puzzle game for X11
The game is played with YOU at the bottom of the screen. At the top is a random assortment of colored shapes ("gems"). As time goes on, more gems appear at the very top of the screen, pushing the rest downwards. The game is over when the gems reach the bottom.
It's your job to keep the screen from filling up. You do this by "grabbing" gems from the top of the screen, carrying them around, if need be, and "throwing" them back up.
If, when you throw some gems back up, you create a "match" of 3 or more gems in a vertical column, they disappear (with a cool little explosion). At this point, if there are any "matches" of the same gem to the left or right of this column, they disappear too! And so on. This is great for cool chain-reactions! You also get more points for the more gems that disappear in a match. (Matching four gives as many points as matching three twice, for example.)
genesis General-purpose neural simulator
GENESIS is a general purpose simulation platform which was developed to support the simulation of neural systems ranging from complex models of single neurons to simulations of large networks made up of more abstract neuronal components.

Each Forth environment provides one or more dictionaries of pre-defined words, and programming in Forth consists of defining and executing new words that are combinations of previously defined words. It has been said that learning Forth changes forever the way you think about writing programs.
For more information about Forth, visit the Forth Interest Group web site at http://www.forth.org/fig.html.

ghemical A GNOME molecular modelling environment
Ghemical is a computational chemistry software package written in C++. It has a graphical user interface and it supports both quantum- mechanics (semi-empirical) models and molecular mechanics models. Geometry optimization, molecular dynamics and a large set of visualization tools using OpenGL are currently available.

As the README puts it:
Ever get the feeling that nothing is going right? You're a sysadmin, and someone's trying to destroy your computers. The little people running around the screen are trying to infect your computers with Wingdows [TM], a virus cleverly designed to resemble a popular operating system. Your objective is to click the mouse on them, ending their potential threat. If one of the people reaches a computer, it will attempt to replace your operating system with the virus it carries. It will then attempt to run off the screen with your vital software. The game ends when only 0 or 1 of your computers is being productive. Additionally, some computers are connected with network cables. When one computer on a network becomes infected, a spark will be sent down the cable, and will infect the computer on the other end when it reaches there.

gnotepad+ GNOME-based Notepad editor
This is an easy-to-use, yet fairly feature-rich, simple text editor for Unix based systems running X11 and using GNOME (the GNU Network Object Model Environment). Gnotepad+ was designed to have as little bloat as possible, while still providing many of the common features found in a modern GUI-based text editor. It is still fairly light-weight, especially for the features it offers, and aims to remain that way.
The "+" in gnotepad+ is there to differentiate it from other GNOME-based text editors which may call themselves "gnotepad". Additionally, gnotepad+ is not intended to be fancy, so it leverages its text editing capabilities on the GTK Text Widget. Hence, if you are looking for a programmer's editor, look for another text editor or help improve the GTK Text Widget.

gnus-bonus-el Miscellaneous add-ons for Gnus
This package contains a few Emacs-Lisp files, mainly obtained from the gnu.emacs.sources newsgroup, that provide various functions to Gnus, the Emacs mail and news reader.
This package contains: gnus-junk.el: semi-automatic replies to junk e-mails; nnnil.el: empty, read-only backend; nntodo.el: manage to-do items; message-x.el: customizable completion in message headers; nnir.el: searchable mail backend; nnmaildir.el: maildir mail backend.
gnus A versatile News and mailing list reader for Emacsen
Gnus is a message-reading laboratory. This is by far the most powerful and extensible news reader that I am aware of. It will let you look at just about anything as if it were a newsgroup. You can read mail with it, you can browse directories with it, you can ftp with it---you can even read news with it! It handles single file groups, MH format folders, mbox files, digests, knows about POP, etc. It can split incoming mail ala procmail.
This version of gnus handles MIME natively. It adds offline reading capability with gnus-agent. It is not compatible with older versions of TM (since a large number of hooks and variables have changed to allow that). NOTE: Please do not use tm-gnus with this version.
Instead of boring old KILL files, it has an adaptive multifaceted scoring mechanism -- you add or reduce the score of the article based on rules, and a component of the score comes in from your past behaviour -- for example, articles similar to ones you read and saved get higher scores. This adaptive mechanism is one of the most interesting part of Gnus.
Gnus tries to empower people who read news the same way Emacs empowers people who edit text. Gnus sets no limits to what the user should be allowed to do. Users are encouraged to extend Gnus to make it behave like they want it to behave. A program should not control people; people should be empowered to do what they want by using (or abusing) the program.
Gnus comes by default with XEmacs, but this is a stand alone package that replaces the stock Gnusii. A note for people using the nnimap backend: SSL support requires w3-el-e20; and even otherwise w3-el makes following hyperlinks in mail and news easier. The upstream sources for this package are available at http://www.gnus.org/dist/gnus.tar.gz
gnuserv Allows you to attach to an already running Emacs
gnuserv allows you to attach to an already running Emacs. This allows external programs to make use of Emacs' editing capabilities. It is like GNU Emacs' emacsserver/server.el, but has many more features.
You do not need this package if you use XEmacs; it already includes gnuserv and gnuclient. If you want to use gnuserv with both GNU Emacs and XEmacs, you will only be able to use the alternative /usr/bin/gnuclient with one flavor of emacs; you will have to use either gnuclient.xemacs or gnuclient.emacs for the other flavor.
gnushogi A program to play shogi, the Japanese version of chess.

gpsim Simulator for Microchip's PIC microcontrollers
Gpsim is a full-featured software simulator for Microchip PIC microcontrollers.
Gpsim has been designed to be as accurate as possible. Accuracy includes the entire PIC - from the core to the I/O pins and including ALL of the internal peripherals. Thus it's possible to create stimuli and tie them to the I/O pins and test the PIC the same PIC the same way you would in the real world.
Gpsim has been designed to be as fast as possible. Real time simulation speeds of 20Mhz PICs are possible.
Gpsim has been designed to be as useful as possible. The standard simulation paradigm including breakpoints, single stepping, disassembling, memory inspect & change, have been implemented. In addition, gpsim supports many debugging features that are only available with in-circuit emulators. For example, a continuous trace buffer tracks every action of the simulator. Also, it's possible to set read and write break points on values (e.g. break if a specific value is read from or written to a register).

grafix1 scientific visualization library
Grafix is a utility originally designed to help scientists in the visualization of results of a computation, e.g. for numerical integrations of partial differential equations.
It can be used, however, for any application that wants to use X for drawing pictures, functions or other graphic objects in a convenient interactive manner or even for writing a graphical user interface for any task.
Grafix should be considered as a layer between an application and the X Window system built up of a bunch of basic classes as building elements. The simplest way of using it is to define instances of these classes. For more complicated programs the user has to define own derivations to the basic classes.
gramofile Transfer sound from gramophone records to CD
GramoFile enables you to record audio from (for example) gramophone records, process the signal and listen to the results. Because sound files in .WAV-format are used, it is possible to exchange the files with many other programs. Cdrecord(1) can burn CD-Recordables of these, so you can make CDs with the music of your favorite records. The user interface of GramoFile has a windows-like look-and-feel, making it fairly easy to use.
One of the most important parts of GramoFile is the ability to process digital audio signals. Through the application of several filters it is possible to accomplish a significant reduction of disturbances like ticks and scratches. These filters have been programmed in such a fashion that they can be applied in any order (and multiple times) in a single run, thus avoiding the use of temporary files. It is possible to adjust the properties of each filter independently, so in every situation an optimal result can be achieved.
Another interesting feature is the track splitting. Just make one .wav file of an entire side of an record and GramoFile will detect where the individual tracks are located. This happens fully automatically, without need to set any options. More experienced users may fine-tune the algorithm, or change the detected track starts and ends, but generally that will not be necessary. Track-times are saved in an editable (plaintext) .tracks file, that will be used during the signal processing to produce one processed .wav file for each individual track.
To record and play .wav files, modified versions of brec(1) and bplay(1) by David Monro are included. These programs provide buffered recording and playback, so all will go well even on a highly loaded system. Both programs have been modified to support the standard GramoFile user interface. Brec also got a `graphical' peak level meter, and bplay a running time display.
grandfatherclock a clock that tolls time acoustically
grandfatherclock plays audio files to report the time. The default configuration emulates a grandfather clock with Westminster chimes. Cuckoo clock and Close Encounters of the Third Kind files are included as well.
As a matter of fact, grandfatherclock can be configured to execute any command. The upstream default is simply to write a *.au file to a sound device file by using cat(1).
Since cat is not a good sound player, the default is changed to use sox instead. grandfatherclock depends on sox to ensure that it can run under the default configuration. You also need a kernel support for a sound device to use grandfatherclock.
grap A program for typesetting graphs
This is grap, an implementation of Kernighan and Bentley's grap language for typesetting graphs. The grap preprocessor works with pic and troff (or groff).
Grap is a language for describing graphical displays of data. It provides such services as automatic scaling and labeling of axes, and for statements, if statements, and macros to facilitate user programmability. Grap is intended primarily for including graphs in documents prepared with groff or TeX, and is only marginally useful for elementary tasks in data analysis.
graphviz a set of graph drawing tools including a web service
Graph drawing addresses the problem of visualizing structural information by constructing geometric representations of abstract graphs and networks. Automatic generation of graph drawings has important applications in key technologies such as database design, software engineering, VLSI and network design and visual interfaces in other domains. Situations where these tools might be particularly useful include:
* you would like to restructure a program and first need to understand the relationships between its types, procedures, and source files. * you need to find the bottlenecks in an Internet backbone - not only individual links, but their relationships * you're debugging a protocol or microarchitecture represented as a finite state machine and need to figure out how a certain error state arises * you would like to browse a database schema, knowledge base, or distributed program represented pictorially * you would like to see an overview of a collection of linked documents * you would like to discover patterns and communities of interest in a database of telephone calls or e-mail messages
For more info see: http://www.graphviz.org and: http://www.research.att.com/sw/tools/graphviz

grep-dctrl Grep Debian package information
The grep-dctrl program can answer such questions as * "What is the Debian package foo?" * "Which version of the Debian package bar is now current?" * "Which Debian packages does John Doe maintain?" * "Which Debian packages are somehow related to the Scheme programming language?" and with some help * "Who maintain the essential packages of a Debian system?" given a useful input file.
It is a specialised grep program that is meant for processing any file which has the general format of a Debian package control file. These include the dpkg available file, the dpkg status file, and the Packages files on a distribution medium (such as a Debian CD-ROM or an FTP site carrying Debian).
grep GNU grep, egrep and fgrep.
The GNU family of grep utilities may be the "fastest grep in the west". GNU grep is based on a fast lazy-state deterministic matcher (about twice as fast as stock Unix egrep) hybridized with a Boyer-Moore-Gosper search for a fixed string that eliminates impossible text from being considered by the full regexp matcher without necessarily having to look at every character. The result is typically many times faster than Unix grep or egrep. (Regular expressions containing backreferencing will run more slowly, however.)
grepmail search mailboxes for mail matching an expression
Grepmail looks for mail messages containing a pattern, and prints the resulting messages. Usage is very similar to grep. It can handle compressed mailbox files, and can search the header or body of emails. It also supports searches constrained by date and size.

gri a language for scientific illustration.
Gri is an open-source language for scientific graphics programming. It is command-driven, as opposed to point/click. Some users consider Gri similar to LaTeX, since both provide extensive power as a reward for tolerating a learning curve. The output is industry-standard PostScript as output, suitable for inclusion in other documents.
Gri can make x-y graphs, contour graphs, and image graphs. Fine control is provided over all aspects of drawing, e.g. line widths, colors, fonts, etc. Greek letters and mathematical symbols are available in a TeX-like syntax.
Folks who write 1000-line Gri scripts usually start with something as simple as the following:
open file.dat # open a file read columns x * y # read the 1st column as x and the 3rd as y draw curve # draw the data and autoscale the axes
A full manual is also available in HTML (gri-html-doc package), in PostScript suitable for printing (gri-ps-doc package) and on-line by following links from the gri home page: http://gri.sourceforge.net/

grub-client An Open Source, distributed effort, data submission client
This is the Grub crawler client, used to provide real time notification updates of webpage content to the distributed, Open Source project run and maintained at <http://grub.org/>. You will have to request a client-id at the homepage to let you join the force. This is needed for authenticated submissions to the database. Also, currently you can only join if you have a static IP address.
Grub, in turn, provides the returned updates to any indexing or search project that needs crawled content themselves. Notifications are FREE for public consumption, but there will be some type of charge for larger queries to their database, such as those needed by the larger engines. By centralizing and organizing the crawling process, Grub hopes to increase the rate at which the Internet can be crawled and simultaneously decrease the amount of crawler traffic required for sites wanting their content indexed on a regular basis.
Please don't confuse this package with the bootloader with the same name. It has nothing to do with it besides the name. The project is currently searching for a better name.
grub-doc Documentation for GRand Unified Bootloader
GRUB is a GPLed bootloader intended to unify bootloading across x86 operating systems. In addition to loading the Linux kernel, it implements the Multiboot standard, which allows for flexible loading of multiple boot images (needed for modular kernels such as the GNU Hurd).

grun GTK based Run dialog
gRun is a GTK based Run dialog that closely resembles the Windows Run dialog, just like xexec. It has a intelligent history mechanism and a dual level fork() mechanism for launching the application in its own process. gRun also has support for launching console mode application in an XTerm as well as associations for file types.
gRun is much more powerful than xexec, looks a lot better, and has the big advantage that you can start typing a command without having to mouse-click into the text field.
gRun is especially useful if you do not use the GNOME desktop which has a built-in run command, and if you use a window-manager (e.g. IceWM) where you can define a keyboard shortcut (e.g. Alt-F2) for staring gRun.
grunch Merge partial scans into a larger image

hatman Customizable high-resolution Pacman clone
You have three lives, and you lose a life if you get eaten by a ghost. If you eat all the little dots on a level, you go onto the next level (if we've bothered including any). At the edge of the screen there may be passageways apparently going nowhere - if you follow one you will wrap all the way around and appear at the other side of the screen, yes - really, as if by magic you have been transported from one side of the screen to the other, and the ghosts won't know what's hit 'em. Also, every now and then some fruit might appear at the edge of the screen. Being a healthy-eating sort of guy, hatman loves fruit, so you should go and eat it - it's extra points, you know.
But the icing on the cake is the power-pellets. Eat one of these and the tables are turned. The ghosts turn gray (as one does, when one is scared) and now it's your turn to do some serious getting. Whilst the ghosts remain gray you can eat them - getting more points for each one you eat, once you eat them their eyes (hatman doesn't like the eyes - they give him indigestion) run back to the ghost's base and gets a new body. Don't worry about them turning back too suddenly - you will get a bit of a warning first.
It's easy, and it's great fun.

hdlant calculates dimensions for microwave ham radio antennas
This is the HDL_ANT program by Paul Wade, N1BWT. It may be used freely by licensed amateur radio operators, others must pay a fee to the ARRL Foundation for use of the program.
HDL_ANT does the calculations needed to successfully implement several microwave antennas: horns, parabolic dishes, and metal-plate lenses. It also does the calculations involved in setting up an antenna range for antenna gain measurement. More detailed explanations of the antennas and measurements may be found in the series of QEX articles entitled 'Practical Microwave Antennas,' in the September, October, and November 1994 issues.
An additional article, 'More on Parabolic Dish Antennas,' in the December 1995 issue of QEX, gave the descriptions for Offset dishes, Penny feeds, and the use of sun noise to measure antenna performance and receiver noise figure.
These articles are reprinted in the ARRL publication "UHF/Microwave Projects Manual, Volume 2", ISBN 0-87259-631-1. Use of the program without the articles is problematic.
All dimensions are in millimeters, since one mm. is about the accuracy required for antennas to work well at 10 GHz. However, there is an option for dimensions in inches, for the metric-impaired.

hercules System/370, ESA/390 and z/Architecture Emulator
Hercules is an open source software implementation of the mainframe System/370 and ESA/390 architectures, in addition to the new 64-bit z/Architecture.
This means that your PC can emulate an IBM mainframe processor. The mainframe can range from a 360 to a z900 - running in "System/370" mode, "ESA/390" mode, or "z/Architecture" mode. Hercules executes S/370, ESA/390, and z/Architecture instructions and channel programs. It emulates mainframe I/O devices by using PC devices. For example, 3390 DASD devices are emulated by large files on your hard disk, and local 3270 screens are emulated by tn3270 sessions.
Hercules implements only the raw S/370, ESA/390, and z/Architecture instruction set; it does not provide any operating system facilities. This means that you need to provide an operating system or standalone program which Hercules can load from an emulated disk or tape device. You will have to use a free software operating system such as Linux, write the operating system or standalone program yourself, obtain a license from IBM to run one of their operating systems on your PC, or use IBM programs and operating systems which have been placed in the public domain.
Virtual networking can be accomplished using the TUN/TAP driver in 2.2 and 2.4 kernels. For older kernels, try the vmnet package.
Hercules was created by Roger Bowler and is maintained by Jay Maynard. Jan Jaeger designed and implemented many of the advanced features of Hercules.
hermes1-dev Development libraries for the Hermes pixel-format library
Hermes is a library that does the dirty work of a graphics library or application that nobody else wants to do, and it does it fast because the effort is concentrated on just that. The thing nobody wants to do is conversion between pixel formats - between all pixel formats that is, not between any two. There are handwritten assembler routines in Hermes that should make anything look fast.
An application or library that uses Hermes will for example be able to render into one buffer and convert it to whatever pixel format is available on the target platform at the time.
Other services provided by Hermes include palette handling including caching of lookup tables, and surface clearing to a specific colour value.
See http://www.clanlib.org/ for more info

icebreaker Break the iceberg
So, uh, there's a bunch of penguins on an iceberg in Antarctica. You have been selected to catch them so they can be shipped to Finland, where they are essential to a secret plot for world domination.
In order to trap the penguins, you'll need to break the iceberg into small chunks. (They're afraid of water, for no apparent reason. Ah well. "The Matrix" had more plot holes than this, and it still was a hit.) You do this by melting lines in the ice with Special High-Tech GNU Tools.
Once 80% or more of the iceberg is gone, the remaining chunks are small enough for shipping. Of course, if you manage to get rid of more than that, you'll save on postage, thus earning you exponential amounts of Geek Cred (a.k.a. "score").

icecast-server Streaming Mpeg Layer III server
Icecast is an Internet based broadcasting system based on the Mpeg Layer III streaming technology. It was originally inspired by Nullsoft's Shoutcast and also mp3serv by Scott Manley. The icecast project was started for several reasons: a) all broadcasting systems were pretty much closed source, non-free software implementations, b) Shoutcast doesn't allow you to run your own directory servers, or support them, and c) we thought it would be a lot of fun.
Icecast is almost completely Shoutcast compatible as far as we've been able to determine. WinAmp can both send encoded streams as well as stream music from icecast. Icecast can also use the yp.shoutcast.com directory services and adds the ability to use other directory services.

imgsizer Add WIDTH and HEIGHT attributes to IMG tags in HTML files.
The imgsizer script automates away the tedious task of creating and updating the extension HEIGHT and WIDTH parameters in HTML IMG tags. These parameters help many browsers (including Netscape) to multi-thread image loading, instead of having to load images in strict sequence in order to have each one's dimensions available so the next can be placed. This generally allows text on the remainder of the page to load much faster.
The package needs either the imagemagick package or both the file and libjpeg-progs packages.

imwheel Program to support the "wheel" on some new mice
Various new mice, including the Microsoft IntelliMouse, and the Logitech MouseMan+, Wheel Mouse, and others, now have a "wheel" button in the middle of them. This wheel button acts both as a standard button (by pressing it), and a wheel, which under MS Windows may be used for scrolling windows around.
This program supports the wheel scrolling operation by one of two means: 1. Some newer X servers support mapping the wheel to buttons 4 and 5, which imwheel then captures and supports, 2. Using a patched version of gpm, the normal mouse events are passed on to the X server through /dev/gpmdata (gpm's standard "repeater" mode), and in addition wheel events are sent to another pipe, /dev/gpmwheel. imwheel picks up these events, and translates them.

inn2 News transport system `InterNetNews' by the ISC and Rich Salz
This package provides INN 2.X, which is Debian's preferred news transport system for new installations. The 'inn' package still exists for sites running INN 1.X who are not prepared to upgrade yet.
The news transport is the part of the system that stores the articles and the lists of which groups are available and so on, and provides those articles on request to users. It receives news (either posted locally or from a newsfeed site), files it, and passes it on to any downstream sites. Each article is kept for a period of time and then deleted (this is known as `expiry').
By default Debian's INN will install in a fairly simple `local-only' configuration.
In order to make use of the services provided by INN you'll have to use a user-level newsreader program such as trn. The newsreader is the program that fetches articles from the server and shows them to the user, remembering which the user has seen so that they don't get shown again. It also provides the posting interface for the user.
inn News transport system `InterNetNews' by the ISC and Rich Salz
This is INN version 1.X, provided for sites which are not ready to upgrade to 2.X yet. New installations of INN should use Debian's inn2 package instead.

integrit A file integrity verification program like tripwire
Integrit helps you determine whether an intruder has modified your system. Without the use of integrit, a sysadmin wouldn't know if the programs used for investigating the system are trojan horses or not. Integrit works by creating a database that is a snapshot of the most essential parts of the system. You put the database somewhere safe, and then later you can use it to make sure that noone has made any illicit modifications to your system.
Integrit's key features are the small memory footprint, the design with unattended use in mind, intuitive cascading rulesets for the paths listed in the configuration file, the possibility of XML or human-readable output and simultaneous check and update.

ion A keyboard-friendly window manager with tiled windows
Ion, based on PWM, is a keyboard-friendly window manager with a very text-editorish interface and no overlapping windows.
ip2host Resolve IPs to hostnames in web server logs
This script is a drop-in replacement for the logresolve.pl script distributed with the Apache web server.
ip2host has the same basic design of forking children to handle the DNS resolution in parallel, but multiplexes the communication to minimize the impact of slow responses. This results in a significant speed improvement (approximately 10x faster), and the performance degrades more gracefully as the DNS timeout value is increased.
ipac-ng IP Accounting for iptables( kernel >=2.4)
Inserts iptables rules to classify network traffic and monitors these rules, writing the data to a file at a certain interval. It will then allow one to calculate IP accounting data and statistics.
ipac IP accounting configuration and statistics tool
Allows easy configuration of the Linux kernel's IP accounting features. It can also read this information from the kernel, store it and summarise it.
If you use linux 2.3 or 2.4, you need ipchains compatibility in your kernel as ipac does not support the new kernel natively yet.
ipadic Dictionaries for ChaSen
Dictionaries for ChaSen.
ipchains-perl Perl interface to ipchains
IPChains.pm provides a simplified interface to the Linux kernel IP firewalling routines through Perl. You need to be running a version of the kernel greater than or equal to 2.2.0. (You can use this with some of the 2.1.x versions but for packaging and stability this one is limited to 2.2.0 or later.)
ipchains Network firewalling for Linux 2.2.x
This package allows you to control how programs on your system may access the network, and how programs on other systems may access yours via the network.
This package fully replaces ipfwadm by wrapping it for old fashioned users and for old scripts.
Firewalling HOWTO can be found in doc-linux-* package.
Linux ipchains is a rewrite of the Linux IPv4 firewalling code (which was mainly stolen from BSD) and a rewrite of ipfwadm, which was a rewrite of BSD's ipfw, I believe. It is required to administer the IP packet filters in Linux kernel versions 2.1.102 and above.
ipcheck Dyndns.org client to register your dynamic IP address
The Dynamic DNS service allows you to alias a dynamic IP address to a static hostname, allowing your computer to be more easily accessed from various locations on the Internet.
This is a simple Python script to register your dynamic IP address using the NIC V2.0 protocol.
The script is very easy to use and supports multiple methods for determining the external IP (parsing interfaces on the local machine, web based IP detection, direct support for devices from Linksys, Netgear, Draytek, Netopia, HawkingTech, Watchgard, Cayman, Nexland, ZyXEL, SMC, Compex, UgatePlus, DLink and Cisco). It also supports the dyndns offline mode.
Starting with version 1.4.1 ipcheck uses https by default and will fall back to http if a timeout occurs.
ipfm A bandwidth analysis tool
IPFM counts how much data was sent and received by specified hosts through an Internet link.
ipfwadm Linux 2.0.x firewalling tools
Ipfwadm is a utility to administer the IP accounting and IP firewall services offered by the Linux kernel.
ipgrab Tcpdump-like utility that prints detailed header information.
Ipgrab is a network debugging utility not unlike tcpdump except that it prints out detailed header field information for data link, network and transport layers.
ipip IP over IP Encapsulation Daemon
This daemon provides an alternative to the kernel-resident support for IP encapsulation links. It is better suited for situations where there are many encapsulation connections to be managed, such as is the case for amateur radio interconnection of network 44. Also, because the daemon is outside the kernel, it provides an excellent environment for experimenting with alternate mechanisms for distributing encapsulation routing updates.
If you need one encapsulation link, use the kernel's built-in support. If you need a lot of encapsulation links, give this daemon a try.
ipmasq Securely initializes IP Masquerade forwarding/firewalling
This package contains scripts to initialize IP Masquerade for use as a firewall. IP Masquerade is a feature of Linux that allows an entire network of computers to be connected to another network (usually the Internet) with only one network address on the other network. IP Masquerade is often referred to as NAT (Network Address Translation) on other platforms.
By default, this package configures the system as a basic forwarding firewall, with IP spoofing and stuffed routing protection. The firewall will allow hosts behind the firewall to get to the Internet, but not allow connections from the Internet to reach the hosts behind the firewall. However, ipmasq now features a very flexible framework where you can override any of the predefined rules if you so choose. It also allows you to control if the rules are reinterpreted when pppd brings a link up or down.
This package should be installed on the firewall host and not on the hosts behind the firewall.
IP Masquerade requires the kernel to be compiled with masquerading support (please see documentation for specific kernel options required).
ipmasqadm Utility for configuring extra masquerading functionality
Ipmasqadm is used to configure extra masquerading funcionality, usually provided by additional kernel modules.
ipmenu A cursel iptables/iproute2 GUI

iptables IP packet filter administration tools for 2.4.4+ kernels
netfilter and iptables are the framework inside the Linux 2.4.x kernel which enable packet filtering, network address translation (NAT) and other packet mangling.
netfilter is a set of hooks inside the linux 2.4.x kernel's network stack which allows kernel modules to register callback functions called every time a network packet traverses one of those hooks.
iptables is a generic table structure for the definition of rulesets. Each rule within an IP table consists out of a number of classifiers (matches) and one connected action (target).
netfilter, iptables and the connection tracking as well as the NAT subsystems together build the whole framework.
IMPORTANT NOTES: System security is a discipline that cannot be achieved by simply installing the iptables package -- the iptables package is NOT a firewall package. Also, misused rulesets can easily disallow you access to remote and local (yes, even localhost) network services.
iptraf Interactive Colorful IP LAN Monitor
IPTraf is an ncurses-based IP LAN monitor that generates various network statistics including TCP info, UDP counts, ICMP and OSPF information, Ethernet load info, node stats, IP checksum errors, and others.

jack Rip and encode CDs with one command
Jack has been developed with one main goal: making MP3s or OGGs without having to worry. There is nearly no way that an incomplete rip goes unnoticed, e.g. jack compares WAV and OGG file sizes when continuing from a previous run. Jack also checks your HD space before doing anything (even keeps some MB free).
Jack is different from other such tools in a number of ways: - it supports different rippers and encoders - it is very configurable - it doesn't need X - it can "rip" virtual CD images like the ones created by cdrdao - when using cdparanoia, cdparanoia's status information is displayed for all tracks, so you can see if something went wrong - it uses sophisticated disk space management, i.e. it schedules it's ripping/encoding processes depending on available space. - freedb query, file renaming and id3 tagging - it can resume work after it has been interrupted. If all tracks have been ripped, it doesn't even need the CD anymore, even if you want to do a freedb query. - it can do a freedb query based on OGGs alone, like if you don't remember from which CD those OGGs came from. - freedb submissions

This editor features: automatic color enhancement of C and C++ syntax, recording & playback of macros, multi-file sessions, automatic screen size recognition, block movements, shell escapes, custom user configuration, small run size (about 45K with a shared ncurses library, and about 170K with a static ncurses lib, very fast loading, and straightforward design.
Lightweight & cool.
jesred A redirector for Squid
Jesred is a very fast and highly configurable redirector for the Squid Internet Object Cache. It was derived from Chris Foote's and Wayne Piekarski's Squirm 1.0 betaB and some code from Squid itself, but is about 2-3x faster than the original version and has some additional features.
Jesred has the following features:
* uses only a very small amount of memory (a little bit more than squirm 1.0 betaB, but still less than perl ;-)) * able to rewrite GET and optionally ICP_QUERY requests as well * one global configuration file * one IP access control file which supports CIDR notation only (i.e. subnet/mask). Thus only URL requests from the specified * subnets/clients are rewritten, if necessary. * one rewrite rules configuration file (regular expression matching and replacement) * optionally logging of common and error messages to a file * optionally logging of URL rewrites to a separate log file, incl. the number of the rule, which has been used to rewrite the URL * able to re-read all its configuration files on the fly by sending a HUP signal to the process. That's why there is no need to restart Squid, if you want to: 1.change the used log file name[s] (useful for log file rotation) 2.enable/disable logging 3.enable/disable debug mode if compiled with DEBUG option 4.enable/disable URL rewriting of ICP_QUERY (sibling) requests 5.change the IP access patterns 6.change the redirect rules * If you mess up configuration file[s], Jesred runs in Echo Mode (always echos back a newline - i.e. no URL replacement) and squid keeps working.
jester X-based board game similar to Othello
It can be played head-to-head on the console or by a single player against the computer. Jester allows you to waste valuable time that could otherwise be spent playing Solitaire.

jflex lexical analyzer generator for Java
JFlex is a lexical analyzer generator for Java written in Java. It is also a rewrite of the very useful tool JLex which was developed by Elliot Berk at Princeton University. As Vern Paxon states for his C/C++ tool flex : They do not share any code though.
jfsutils Utilities for managing the JFS filesystem
Utilities for managing IBM's Journaled File System (JFS) under Linux.
IBM's journaled file system technology, currently used in IBM enterprise servers, is designed for high-throughput server environments, key to running intranet and other high-performance e-business file servers.
The following utilities are available: fsck.jfs - initiate replay of the JFS transaction log, and check and repair a JFS formatted device. logdump - dump a JFS formatted device's journal log. logredo - "replay" a JFS formatted device's journal log. mkfs.jfs - create a JFS formatted partition. xchkdmp - dump the contents of a JFS fsck log file created with xchklog. xchklog - extract a log from the JFS fsck workspace into a file. xpeek - shell-type JFS file system editor.
jftpgw Joe's FTP Proxy/Gateway.

jgraph Jim Plank's program for producing PostScript graphs
Jgraph takes a description of a graph or graphs and produces a postscript file on the standard output.
Jgraph is ideal for plotting any mixture of scatter point graphs, line graphs, and/or bar graphs, and embedding the output into LaTeX, or any other text processing system which can read postscript.
The graph description language is simple enough to get nice looking graphs with a minimum of effort, yet powerful enough to give the user the flexibility to tailor the appearance of the graph to his or her individual preferences. This includes plotting multiple graphs and laying them out separately on the page (or pages).
jhcore Jay's House Core, an enhanced core database for lambdamoo
Jay's House Core, a lambdacore based db with significant enhancements. It features:
* Hypertext help system * Administration groups * Enhanced english presentation tools * Added objects (furniture, doors, windows, etc) * A tutorial
jhead Manipulate the non-image part of EXIF compliant JPEG files
Jhead is a command line driven utility for extracting digital camera settings from the Exif format files used by many digital cameras. It handles the various confusing ways these can be expressed, and displays them as F-stop, shutter speed, etc. It is also able to reduce the size of digital camera JPEGs without loss of information, by deleting integral thumbnails that digital cameras put into the Exif header.
Upstream is: http://www.sentex.net/~mwandel/jhead/
jiffy-perl-tk Visualization for nec-based antenna designs using perl-tk
Another version of jiffy, which uses perl-tk. Compared to the original jiffy, a program called necview is added, which can view your antenna design from different angles. A major advantage of this version of jiffy as compared to the tcl/tk/blt based version: it's a lot faster.
jiffy Visualization for nec-based antenna designs
It is never been easier to design antennas! Most hams enjoy ``fiddling'' with antennas, but comparatively few of us are really interested in doing one-handed chin-ups at fifty feet above the cold frozen earth on a snowy and windy night in January.
Jiffy will make life a lot easier for you. It can make a drawing from the antenna design that you made and it can display elevation and azimuth patterns from the nec output.
jigdo-file Download Debian CD images from any Debian mirror
Using the jigdo-lite script contained in this package, you can use your nearest "regular" Debian mirror to download Debian CD images, instead of having to use one of the few, slow, overloaded mirrors that offer the images as direct HTTP or FTP downloads. See <http://www.debian.org/CD/jigdo-cd/> for details.
Jigsaw Download, or short jigdo, is a scheme developed primarily to make it easy to distribute huge filesystem images (e.g. CD (ISO9660) or DVD (UDF) images) over the internet, but it could also be used for other data which is awkward to handle due to its size, like audio/video files or large software packages.
jigdo tries to ensure that the large file is downloaded in small parts which can be stored on different servers. People who want to download the image do so by telling the jigdo download tool to process one ".jigdo" file; using it, jigdo downloads the parts and reassembles the image. jigdo-file is used to prepare the files for download.
jikes-1.14 Fast Java compiler adhering to language and VM specifications
Jikes is a Java compiler that translates Java source files as defined in The Java Language Specification (Addison-Wesley, 1996) into the bytecoded instruction set and binary format defined in The Java Virtual Machine Specification (Addison-Wesley, 1996). Unlike other compilers, Jikes accepts the Java language only as specified: not as a subset, variant, or superset.
In addition to strictly adhering to specifications, Jikes is faster than most compilers and can compute the complete dependency relations in program files. This allows for the generation of dependency makefiles suitable for use with make. Jikes can also be run in incremental mode: after the initial compilation, Jikes waits until prompted, determines which files have been changed, and then does the minimal amount of work needed to bring the class files into a complete and consistent state. This cycle can be repeated until the q command is entered to end the compilation.
This package contains version 1.14 of jikes for those programs that do not build with higher versions. You might consider installing the "jikes" package instead which tracks the latest version.
jikes-gij Fast Java compiler adhering to language and VM specifications
Jikes is a Java compiler that translates Java source files as defined in The Java Language Specification (Addison-Wesley, 1996) into the bytecoded instruction set and binary format defined in The Java Virtual Machine Specification (Addison-Wesley, 1996).

jikespg Jikes Parser Generator
Jikes Parser Generator is a parser generator that accepts as input an annotated description for a language grammar and produces text files suitable for inclusion in a parser for that language. It is similar in function and use to the widely-available parser generators Yacc and Bison.
It also provides support for automatic diagnosis and recovery from syntactic errors. It is the parser generator used by the Jikes Compiler. Jikes Parser Generator can generate parsers for LALR(k) grammars and produce output suitable for use with parsers written in Java, C, or C++.
jitterbug A cgi-bin tool for problem reporting and tracking
JitterBug is a cgi-bin tool for problem reporting and tracking developed by Andrew Tridgell for the Samba Team. It is highly customizable to your own project's needs. It has both a web interface and an e-mail based one for submitting bug reports.
jless A file pager program, similar to more(1) supporting ISO2022
Jless is a program similar to more (1), but which allows backward movement in the file as well as forward movement. Also, jless does not have to read the entire input file before starting, so with large input files it starts up faster than text editors like vi (1). Jless uses terminfo, so it can run on a variety of terminals. There is even limited support for hardcopy terminals.
Jless supporting ISO 2022 code extension techniques and Japanese codes.
jlex A Lex-style lexical analyser generator for Java
The JLex utility is a lexical analyser generator, modelled after the popular UNIX "lex" utility.
JLex takes a specification file similar to that accepted by Lex, then creates a Java source file for the corresponding lexical analyzer.
jmk A cross-platform make tool written in Java
jmk is an application which is used to ensure that a set of files is in a consistent state. If jmk detects an inconsistency, it executes commands that correct the inconsistency. The rules used to detect and correct inconsistencies are given in a makefile.
jmk is designed to support the task of writing platform independent makefiles. File names and path lists are written in a canonical form, and translated by jmk into native form.
The rules given in a jmk makefile can invoke programs as separate processes. To produce a machine independent makefile, a makefile should only invoke programs that use the same command line argument syntax across platforms. Examples of such programs include Sun's Java compiler (javac) and their Java Archive Tool (jar).
jmon distributed resource monitor
Resource monitoring for large networks. The jMon system allows for the real time monitoring of CPU, memory and swap usage. The system makes use of a small daemon running on each of the machines that are to be monitored.
The client makes a TCP/IP connection with each of the servers specified in the configuration file. The statistics of all the host machines are displayed in an ncurses window on the console.
jmpost Japanized MetaPost, a system for drawing pictures
This is jMetaPost, a Japanized MetaPost based on the original MetaPost 0.641. jMetaPost can handle Kanji characters (EUC-JP).
MetaPost interprets the MetaPost language and produces PostScript pictures. The MetaPost language is similar to Knuth's Metafont with additional features for including tex(1) or troff(1) commands and accessing features of PostScript not found in Metafont.
jnethack The dungeon exploration game JNetHack (nethack with Japanese l10n)
JNetHack is Japanese localized version of NetHack. NetHack is D&D (Dungeons and Dragons) style adventure game.
Special features of JNetHack version are following: * Japanese message * New character 'Fighter' (She wears 'sailor blouse') * High score server * GTK+ mode * And so on...
joe user friendly full screen text editor
Joe, the Joe's Own Editor, has the feel of most PC text editors: the key sequences are reminiscent of WordStar and Turbo C editors, but the feature set is much larger than of those. Joe has all of the features a Unix user should expect: full use of termcap/terminfo, complete VI-style Unix integration, a powerful configuration file, and regular expression search system. It also has six help reference cards which are always available, and an intuitive, simple, and well thought-out user interface.
Joe has a great screen update optimization algorithm, multiple windows (through/between which you can scroll) and lacks the confusing notion of named buffers. It has command history, TAB expansion in file selection menus, undo and redo functions, (un)indenting and paragraph formatting, filtering highlighted blocks through any external Unix command, editing a pipe into or out of a command, and block move, copy, delete or filter.
Through simple QEdit-style configuration files, Joe can be set up to emulate editors such as Pico and Emacs, along with a complete immitation of WordStar, and a restricted mode version (lets you edit only the files specified on the command line). Joe also has a deferred screen update to handle typeahead, and it ensures that deferral is not bypassed by tty buffering. It's usable even at 2400 baud, and it will work on any kind of sane terminal.
jove Jonathan's Own Version of Emacs - a compact, powerful editor.
Jove is a compact, powerful Emacs-style text-editor. It provides the common emacs keyboard bindings, together with a reasonable assortment of the most popular advanced features (e.g. interactive shell windows, compile-it, language specific modes) while weighing in with CPU, memory, and disk requirements comparable to vi(1).
jpeg2ps Convert JPEG compressed images to PostScript Level 2
jpeg2ps converts JPEG files to PostScript Level 2 or 3 EPS. In fact, jpeg2ps is not really a converter but a "wrapper": it reads the image parameters (width, height, number of color components) in a JPEG file, writes the according EPS header and then copies the compressed JPEG data to the output file. Decompression is done by the PostScript interpreter (only PostScript Level 2 and 3 interpreters support JPEG compression and decompression). If you have a slow communication channel and a fast printer, sending compressed image data is a big win.
jpeginfo Prints information and tests integrity of JPEG/JFIF files.
jpeginfo can be used to generate informative listings of jpeg files, and also to check jpeg files for errors. It can also detect broken jpeg and delete them automatically.
jpilot-plugins Plugins for jpilot (Palm Pilot desktop)
This package includes two plugins for jpilot:
o Expenses o SyncTime o KeyRing
jpilot A GTK app to modify the contents of your Palm Pilots DB's
This is an impressive near-full-featured Palm Pilot desktop similar to the one that comes with the Pilot for Windows platforms.
You have access to the following applications: o Datebook o Address book o ToDo list o Memos
Plug-ins are available in the jpilot-plugins package.
jscalibrator GTK Joystick Calibrator
With jscalibrator you can calibrate your joystick for Linux games.

jswat JPDA java debugger
JSwat is an extensible, standalone, graphical Java debugger front-end, written to use the Java Platform Debugger Architecture (JPDA) package provided by JavaSoft.
jtex-base basic jTeX library files.
jTeX is a TeX for Japanese language.
jtex-bin Japanese TeX (NTT version) and other japanese tex staffs.
JTeX is TeX for Japanese text based on the original Knuth's TeX. Include: jtex, jlatex, amsjtex (amsjtex depends on tetex-extra package)
juice playlist editor / player frontend
Juice is a frontend for mpg123 and other players. It provides a nifty dialog-based playlist editor.
It basically allows you to browse through your files in a "Midnight Commander"-like fashion. The MP3's you select are treated as a playlist which can be shuffled, rearranged, saved, etc.
In order to play audio files, two player interfaces are provided. The mpg123-specific interface uses the remote protocol of mpg123 (This feature was introduced in version 0.59r in order to accommodate generic frontends.) The other player frontend is generic and allows for any player to be used. This is useful if you do not want to limit the functionality of juice to MP3's. Please note that this generic frontend is still in early beta phase and is pretty buggy.
Of course juice comes with all the bells & whistles you'd expect from a quality application and has (among others) full integrated help functionality as well as full dialog based configuration file editor.
juke A curse based jukebox program.
Juke is a simple curses/ ncurses based juke box program for Unix computers. It uses command line based players to play all kinds of music format.
junior-arcade Debian Jr. arcade games
This meta package will install arcade games suitable, in the opinion of the contributors to the Debian Jr. project, for children of all ages. Mastering most of these games requires dexterity and cognitive skills usually developed only in the older children (around ages 5 to 8). But the youngest children may enjoy watching older players, or just poking randomly at the controls, depending on the game.
junior-art Debian Jr. Art
Tools for children to produce artwork. While gimp is more complex, and is aimed at the graphic artist, it is not necessarily much harder to use than the older, less full-featured xpaint. Children starting out with just a small subset of the functions of these tools eventually pick up quite a number of new things as they explore, either with adults or other children with whom they share their computers, or on their own.
junior-doc Debian Jr. Documentation
Includes, for the moment, just the "Quick Guide" which helps a new user of Debian Jr. get started. The intention of the Debian Jr. working group is to provide a variety of additional documents to help children and sys admins alike with the installation, configuration, and use of a Debian Jr. system.
junior-games-card Debian Jr. Card Games
A collection of card games, for the time being just solitaire, which are probably more suited to older children than young, although the "memory" type games in pysol may appeal to children just entering grade school.
junior-games-gl Debian Jr. 3D Games (hardware acceleration required)
These games all use OpenGL libraries. They will not work without decent 3D graphics cards providing hardware-accelerated OpenGL.
While armagetron and gltron are different interpretations of the game depicted in the classic 3D-animated movie "Tron", Tux Racer is an all-original made-for-Linux 3D racing game. Unlike the standard blood-and-guts fare in the 3D games universe, all of these games are suitable for children.
junior-games-net Debian Jr. Network Games
While XPilot has a broad international community of players (mostly on high-bandwidth connections) it can be enjoyed on a home network as well. XBlast, on the other hand, achieves networking using the X protocol, so it is best suited to a local network.
junior-games-sim Debian Jr. Simulation Games
Simulation games tend to be rather complex, so we recommend them for older children, and even then some help from someone older may be needed.
junior-games-text Debian Jr. Text Games
The principal virtue of these games is their simplicity. They will run on any hardware, and some of them are simple enough to control so that very young children can enjoy them (e.g. snake)
junior-gnome Debian Jr. for Gnome
This package includes a collection of programs for children which are built for Gnome. A Gnome desktop is not required in order to run these. They are kept separate merely so that installing a Debian Jr. system won't drag in all kinds of Gnome dependencies.
As such, this package is by no means a complete collection of programs suitable for children in Gnome. The Debian Jr. project will be adding to this list in future release, and likely refining the package into categories the way the rest of Debian Jr. packages are now organized.
junior-internet Debian Jr. Internet tools
Mozilla is a "swiss army knife" of web browsers. It will suffice for quite a number of services and protocols, including Usenet and E-mail. Use of other Internet clients with children is expected and encouraged. This is just something to get started with.
We have put a fair amount of effort into looking for a good "light" graphical browser. Nothing meets all our requirements for a very lightweight system (e.g. 486 or classic pentium system with smallish amount of memory) while retaining functionality expected in most modern browsers (minimally, Javascript, Java, and support for plugins). Dillo is a very minimal browser, supporting none of these extras, but provides a good, fast, low memory footprint browser for plain HTML browsing.
junior-kde Debian Jr. for KDE
This package includes a collection of programs for children which are built for KDE. A KDE desktop is not required in order to run these. They are kept separate merely so that installing a Debian Jr. system won't drag in all kinds of KDE dependencies.
As such, this package is by no means a complete collection of programs suitable for children in KDE. The Debian Jr. project will be adding to this list in future releases, and likely refining the package into categories the way the rest of Debian Jr. packages are now organized.
junior-math Debian Jr. educational math
This meta package will install educational math programs suitable for children. Some of the packages use mathematics that is well beyond the abilities of young children (e.g. fractals and cryptography), but we hope that by using them they gain an appreciation of the beauty of math from an early age. Other packages allow children to explore and learn math concepts in an engaging, interactive way. Some packages are more general, providing math activities as only one part of the package, e.g. bsdgames includes "arithmetic" in addition to other non-math games, and xbase-clients provides xcalc.
junior-programming Debian Jr. programming
The emphasis for this sampling of programming packages for children is first on simple interpreted languages. Also important for using languages with children are good documentation, and some ability to produce visual programs without too much effort. It is by no means a complete list, and your are encouraged to explore other languages with children as well.
The Logo language is specifically designed for children, with a strong emphasis on the visual and concrete, while Python is recognized as a good language to teach programming with, has very good docs, and a number of different gui bindings, Tk being the most common so that is what is included here.
junior-puzzle Debian Jr. Puzzles
Some puzzle-type games, from the more arcade-like rocks-n-diamonds to xjig (a jigsaw puzzle program), to lmemory (based on the classic "memory" card game), we hope this sampling of packages will appeal to child and adult alike.
junior-sound Debian Jr. sound
This meta package will install a sampling of sound packages for a system that is used by children. While not all of these will be things that children will use directly, a child's system administrator can make use of them to ensure that the child gets the most out of their system.
junior-system Debian Jr. System tools
This package includes a few tools for helping children learn about and use their system.
Midnight Commander is more than just a file manager. It is shell with which children can explore and manage their own accounts. It can be a great help for the very young, as it saves them some typing (as compared with using a command-line shell directly). It is also packed with power and flexibility which can be tapped by older children and adults alike.
The 'hello' sample program can be used as an instructional aid, as an example of how to invoke programs from the shell, specify switches, use the man page, and so on.
A fun way to visualize filesystems is by using xcruise to zoom about from node to node through "galaxies" of files, directories, and symbolic links.
Finally, lavaps not only provides a very pleasing way to visualize running processes and the resources they use, but can also make discovering and killing errant processes an easy thing to do for children who lack the ability yet to easily manage "ps" and "kill" from the command line.
junior-toys Debian Jr. desktop toys
This meta package will install desktop toys suitable for children.
junior-typing Debian Jr. typing
This meta package will install typing tutors and typing games for various skill levels. From tuxtype for the young (and young at heart) to gtypist for a "serious" typing tutor program.
junior-writing Debian Jr. writing
This meta package will install tools for your budding young writers. Since there are a wide variety of opinions as to what constitutes the "best" text editor, a number are provided to choose from. A spell-checker and dictionary client are provided as well. Finally, abiword is included as our choice for a word processor.
junit-doc Document for JUnit
This package provide documents and examples for JUnit which is a simple framework for writing and running automated tests.
junit-freenet basic reimplementation of the JUnit unit testing framework
This is a basic reimplementation of the JUnit unit testing framework, it was just an afternoons hack, so for real testing you may still wish to use JUnit, but developing against this should avoid any questions regarding licensing.
This code is written without the authorization or knowledge of the original JUnit authors, and bears no relation to their code short of containing the same class, method, and field names.
junit Automated testing framework for Java
JUnit is a simple framework for writing and running automated tests. As a political gesture, it celebrates programmers testing their own software.
junkbuster The Internet Junkbuster!
Junkbuster is an instrumentable proxy that filters the HTTP stream between web servers and browsers. It can prevent ads and other unwanted junk from appearing in your web browser.
junkfilter A junk-email filtering program for procmail
This package uses procmail filtering algorithms to detect junk email. This results in internal procmail variables being assigned to indicate the reason why the email has been classified as junk. The user can then use those variables within their .procmailrc file to deal with the junk in any way they see fit. There are a number of filters available in the package, and can be selected from a simple config file on a per-user basis.
jvim-canna Japanized VIM (Canna version)
JVIM 3.0 is Japanized VIM (VI clone editor) by K.Tsuchida <ken_t@st.rim.or.jp> on May 5, 2001 (patch version 2.1a).

jvim-doc Documentation for jvim (Japanized VIM)
JVIM 3.0 is Japanized VIM (VI clone editor) by K.Tsuchida <ken_t@st.rim.or.jp> on May 5, 2001 (patch version 2.1a).
jwhois Improved Caching Whois client
GNU jwhois is an Internet Whois client that queries hosts for information according to RFC 954 - NICNAME/WHOIS. JWHOIS is configured via a configuration file that contains information about all known Whois servers. Upon execution, the host to query is selected based on the information in the configuration file.
The configuration file is highly customizable and makes heavy use of regular expressions.

jython Python seamlessly integrated with Java
Jython is an implementation of the high-level, dynamic, object-oriented language Python seamlessly integrated with the Java platform. The predecessor to Jython, JPython, is certified as 100% Pure Java.
Jython is complementary to Java and allows the two languages to be freely mixed. It is especially suited for embedded scripting, interactive experimentation and rapid application development, and it can interact with Java packages or with running Java applications.
jzip Text mode interpreter for Z-Code adventures, etc.
This package provides the jzip Z-Code interpreter required to run Infocom or Inform-generated text adventures, although the format can be used for more than games. It is based on the zip interpreter sources and adapted by John D. Holder <jholder@frii.com>.
kab An addressbook for KDE
This is the KDE Addressbook
kabalone Abalone board game for KDE
Abalone is a simple board strategy game that is played by two players. There are red and yellow pieces for each player. Beginning from a start position where each player has 14 pieces, moves are drawn until one player has pushed 6 pieces of his opponent out of the board
kakasi-dic KAKASI dictionary files
This package provides KAKASI dictionary files. You have to install this package if you use KAKASI.
KAKASI is the language processing filter to convert Kanji characters to Hiragana, Katakana or Romaji(1) and may be helpful to read Japanese documents.

kascade Client for Kascade, a distributed Open directory search-engine
Kascade is a novel type of search-engine, based on the Open directory principle. This means that anyone can structure a small part of the information on the internet, corresponding to their personal interests or expertise. The resulting parts are placed in a large categorical structure that others can browse to search for information. Examples of Open Directory initiatives are Dmoz and Infomarker.
In contrast with other Open Directory initiatives, though, the parts that people maintain now reside on their own server. What results is a distributed Open Directory! As with Gnutella, though, there are no fixed central servers. This implies that anyone can start a new structure. Actually any piece can be easily replaced, hopefully leading to competitive improvement. The distributed nature and lack of central control facilities make for a system immune to company or government control, much like Gnutella and the Internet itself.

kernel-package Debian Linux kernel package build scripts.
This package provides the capability to create a debian kernel-image package by just running make-kpkg kernel_image in a kernel source directory tree. It can also package the relevant kernel headers into a kernel-headers package. In general, this package is very useful if you need to create a custom kernel, if, for example, the default kernel does not support some of your hardware, or you wish a leaner, meaner kernel. It also scripts the steps that need be taken to compile the kernel, which is quite convenient (forgetting a crucial step once was the initial motivation for this package). Please look at /usr/share/doc/kernel-package/Rationale.gz for a full list of advantages of this package.
If you are running on an intel x86 platform, and you wish to compile a custom kernel (why else are you considering this package?), then you may need the package bin86 as well. (This is not required on other platforms).

kimberlite High Availability Clustering Package
Kimberlite is a complete framework providing high availability for application services on Linux. The key features of the architecture include the following:
- A complete high-availability service infrastructure prevents you from having to assemble an infrastructure from disparate components.
- An extensible service-configuration framework enables you to easily integrate a wide variety of applications.
- An exceptional data integrity guarantee differentiates the software from other contemporary offerings from the Linux community. Because of this guarantee, a Kimberlite cluster provides a solid foundation for highly-available data services, such as network-exported databases and NFS file systems, and is ideal as the data tier for dynamic web content.
- Services fail over automatically when problems occur, without requiring manual intervention by system administrators.
- A command line user interface and a web-based graphical user interface enable you to monitor and manage the cluster.
- A cluster utilizes commodity hardware and storage options, such as SCSI and FibreChannel.
kimwitu++ A (syntax-)tree-handling tool (term processor)
Kimwitu++ is a system that supports the construction of programs that use trees or terms as their main data structure. It allows you to define, store and operate on trees with typed nodes. Each type of node has a specific number of sons, and expects these sons to have specific types. The most popular example of such trees are syntax trees.
The nodes are defined in a Yacc-like fashion. The tree can be unparsed (ie. treewalk) and rewritten (ie. term substitution). Kimwitu++ gives you powerful pattern matching for specifying unparse and rewrite rules.
Kimwitu++ is an extension to C++. It introduces Yacc-like node definitions, the unparse and rewrite rules, and extensions for pattern matching within functions. It will translate its input files into pure C++.
To build the tree you might use a parser generated with Bison, but you are free to use other tools. There also exists Kimwitu (also packaged for Debian) which interfaces with C instead of C++ which can also be used in C++ projects, but Kimwitu++ has some extensions one might consider useful.
kimwitu-doc Documentation for compiler development tool kimwitu.
Kimwitu (pronounced kee'mweetoo) is a system that supports the construction of programs that use trees or terms as their main data structure. It is a `meta-tool' in the development process of tools.
It can easily be interfaced with Yacc and Lex - the idea is that yacc and lex are used to do the parsing, and Kimwitu routines are used to built and manipulate the parse tree.
There is also Kimwitu++ (also packaged for Debian) which interfaces with C++ instead of C; there is no separate documentation for it, so this is also the Kimwitu++ documentation at the moment.

kjezz Jezzball clone for the K Desktop Environment.
This is a clone of the popular Jezzball game originally created by Microsoft. Jezzball is one of the rare and simple games requiring skill, timing, and patience in order to be successful. A ball begins to bounce off of an area enclosed by four borders (like a square). You must move your pointer to certain areas within the square. Upon clicking, a new border is constructed at a relatively quick pace. You can change the direction of the borders by 90 degrees as well. Ultimately, you must force the ball to bounce around in a smaller, and smaller area as time goes by without the ball ever touching the borders as they are being constructed. If a ball touches a certain part of the border as it is being built, the game is over. After 75% of the original space has been blocked off from the moving ball, you advance one level, and one more ball is added to the mix in the following level.

kreatecd A KDE CD burner with an easy interface
The description is a rip-off from http://www.kreatecd.de/intro.php
KreateCD is a graphical user interface for the K Desktop Environment to copy and master own audio CDs (CDDA) or data CDs (CD-ROM). The idea to create such an application came to mind because there are only a few such applications for Linux and many people are not able to use the command line tools. Xcdroast is not bad at all but there are some features which are missing. I don't like TCL/TK very much so I decided to create a similar but more extended application for my favorite desktop environment : KDE.
KreateCD itself uses some command line applications as base applications and provides a comfortable and very intuitive user interface which should be usable by people who don't have any experiences with Linux at all.
The main features of KreateCD are:
o Intuitive user interface o Supports mastering of ISO-9660 CD-ROM tracks o Is able to read .WAV audio files o Easy to use CD copy function o Some useful features to edit audio tracks before you write it to CD. (volume boosting, balance and range selection) o Audio playback

ksokoban Sokoban game for KDE
The first sokoban game was created in 1982 by Hiroyuki Imabayashi at the Japanese company Thinking Rabbit, Inc. "Sokoban" is japanese for "warehouse keeper". The idea is that you are a warehouse keeper trying to push crates to their proper locations in a warehouse.
The problem is that you cannot pull the crates or step over them. If you are not careful, some of the crates can get stuck in wrong places and/or block your way.
It can be rather difficult just to solve a level. But if you want to make it even harder, you can try to minimise the number of moves and/or pushes you use to solve the level.
To make the game more fun for small kids (below 10 years or so), some collections with easier levels are also included in KSokoban. These are marked (easy) in the level collection menu. Of course, these levels can be fun for adults too, for example if you don't want to expose yourself to too much mental strain.

latex2html LaTeX to HTML translator.
LaTeX2HTML is a conversion tool that that converts documents written in LaTeX to HTML format. In addition, it offers an easy migration path towards authoring complex hypermedia documents using familiar word-processing concepts.
LaTeX2HTML replicates the basic structure of a LaTeX document as a set of interconnected HTML files which can be explored using automatically generated navigation panels. The cross-references, citations, footnotes, the table of contents and the lists of figures and tables, are also translated into hypertext links. Formatting information which has equivalent ``tags'' in HTML (lists, quotes, paragraph breaks, type styles, etc.) is also converted appropriately. The remaining heavily formatted items such as mathematical equations, pictures or tables are converted to images which are placed automatically at the correct positions in the final HTML document.
LaTeX2HTML extends LaTeX by supporting arbitrary hypertext links and symbolic cross-references between evolving remote documents. It also allows the specification of conditional text and the inclusion of raw HTML commands. These hypermedia extensions to LaTeX are available as new commands and environments from within a LaTeX document.
Pstoimg, the part of latex2html that produces bitmap images from the LaTeX source, can support both GIF and PNG format. Because of certain legal limitations on the use of the GIF image format, GIF support is disabled in this package.

lbxproxy Low Bandwidth X (LBX) proxy server
Applications that would like to take advantage of the Low Bandwidth extension to X (LBX) must make their connections to an lbxproxy. These applications need know nothing about LBX, they simply connect to the lbxproxy as if were a regular X server. The lbxproxy accepts client connections, multiplexes them over a single connection to the X server, and performs various optimizations on the X protocol to make it faster over low bandwidth and/or high latency connections.
lcap Removes 'capabilities' in the kernel, making the system more secure
Capabilities are a form of kernel-based access control. This program provides a user-friendlier way than setting proc/sys/kernel/cap-bound by hand to remove capabilities from your Linux kernel.
For example, you can remove the capability to load kernel modules by executing 'lcap CAP_SYS_MODULE' as root. Then no one, not even root, can load modules into your kernel. This can be useful for tightening the security of your Linux machines.

lftp Sophisticated command-line FTP/HTTP client programs
Lftp is a file retrieving tool that supports FTP and HTTP protocols under both IPv4 and IPv6. Lftp has an amazing set of features, while preserving its interface as simple and easy as possible.
The main two advantages over other ftp clients are reliability and ability to perform tasks in background. It will reconnect and reget the file being transferred if the connection broke. You can start a transfer in background and continue browsing on the ftp site. It does this all in one process. When you have started background jobs and feel you are done, you can just exit lftp and it automatically moves to nohup mode and completes the transfers. It has also such nice features as reput and mirror. It can also download a file as soon as possible by using several connections at the same time.
Lftp can also be scriptable, it can be used to mirror sites, it let you copy files among remote servers (even between FTP and HTTP). It has an extensive online help. It supports bookmarks, and connecting to several ftp/http sites at the same time.
This package also includes lftpget - A simple non-interactive tool for downloading files.

libacl1-kerberos4kth ACL Libraries for Kerberos4 From KTH
Kerberos is a system for authenticating users and services on a network. Kerberos is a trusted third-party service. That means that there is a third party (the kerberos server) that is trusted by all the entities on the network (users and services, usually called "principals").
This version is from Kungliga Tekniska Högskolan (the Royal Institute of Technology in Stockholm, Sweden). It is based on the eBones version of MIT Kerberos which was legally exported from the US by removing all encryption hooks before export. It isn't covered by any patents and should be legal to use anywhere encryption is legal at all.

libamulet4 A GUI toolkit for X11, Macintosh and Windows 95/98/NT
This is the runtime library required to run applications using the OpenAmulet toolkit.
The OpenAmulet Toolkit is a portable toolkit designed for the creation of 2D direct manipulation graphical user interfaces. It is written in C++ and can be used with Unix systems running the X Window System (Motif look), PC's running Microsoft Windows NT or `95 (native look), or Macintosh systems running MacOS (native look).
The Amulet research project in the School of Computer Science at Carnegie Mellon University is creating a comprehensive set of tools which make it significantly easier to create graphical, highly-interactive user interfaces. The lower levels of Amulet are called the `Amulet Toolkit,' and these provide mechanisms that allow programmers to code user interfaces much more easily. Support is provided for: object selection, save/load, undo, and constraints.
As the group at Carnegie Mellon University is no longer funded for its work on Amulet, some Amulet users have founded the OpenAmulet project which has continued its development.

libapache-asp-perl perl Apache::ASP - Active Server Pages for Apache with mod_perl.
This perl module provides an Active Server Pages port to the Apache Web Server with perl as the host scripting language. Active Server Pages is a web application platform that originated with the Microsoft NT/IIS server. Under Apache for Unix and Win32 platforms it allows a developer to create dynamic web applications with session management and embedded perl code.
This module works under the Apache Web Server with the mod_perl module enabled. See http://www.apache.org and http://perl.apache.org for further information.
This is a portable solution, similar to ActiveState's PerlScript for NT/IIS ASP. Work has been done and will continue to make ports to and from this implementation as smooth as possible.
libapache-auth-ldap LDAP authentication module for Apache
This is an authentication module for Apache that allows you to authenticate HTTP clients using user entries in an LDAP directory.
auth_ldap supports the following features: * Support for both Unix and Windows NT. As with Apache, Windows NT support is not as stable as Unix support. * Supports the OpenLDAP SDK, the Mozilla Directory SDK, and Netscape's Directory SDK. * The ability to use LDAP search filters offers flexibility for complex authentication policies. * Support for Microsoft FrontPage allows FrontPage users to control access to their webs, while retaining LDAP for user authentication. * Extensive caching of LDAP searches and other operations offers significant performance improvements. * Support for LDAP over SSL (requires the Netscape SDK).
libapache-authensmb SMB authentication module for Apache/mod_perl
This package supplies a perl module which allows a mod_perl-enabled Apache webserver to pass HTTP Basic authentication requests on to an SMB password server.
libapache-authnetldap-perl LDAP authentication for Apache+mod_perl
Works with Apache and mod_perl to authenticate users over the web against an LDAP backend.
Based on Net::LDAP
libapache-authznetldap-perl LDAP access control for Apache+mod_perl
Works with Apache and mod_perl to provide more LDAP-based access control- for instance requiring users to be a member of a specific group, or to satisfy a particular filter.
Based on Net::LDAP
libapache-configfile-perl Parse an Apache style httpd.conf configuration file
This module parses the Apache httpd.conf, or any compatible config file, and provides methods for you to access the values from the config file.
libapache-csacek Charset recoding module
This Apache DSO module recodes encoding of documents between ISO-8859-2, ASCII, CP852, CP1250 and other.
libapache-db-perl Run the interactive Perl debugger under mod_perl
Perl ships with a very useful interactive debugger, however, it does not run "out-of-the-box" in the Apache/mod_perl environment. Apache::DB makes a few adjustments so the two will cooperate.
libapache-dbi-perl Connect apache server to database via perl's DBI
These modules are supposed to be used with the Apache server together with an embedded perl interpreter like mod_perl. They provide support for basic authentication and authorization as well as support for persistent database connections via Perl's Database Independent Interface (DBI).
o AuthDBI.pm provides authentication and authorization:
- optional shared cache for passwords to minimize database load - configurable cleanup-handler deletes outdated entries from the cache
o DBI.pm provides persistent database connections:
- connections can be established during server-startup - configurable rollback to ensure data integrity - configurable verification of the connections to avoid time-outs.
libapache-dbilogconfig-perl Apache::DBILogConfig: Logs access information in a DBI database
This module replicates the functionality of the standard Apache module, mod_log_config, but logs information in a DBI-compliant database instead of a file.
libapache-dbilogger-perl Tracks what's being transferred in a DBI database
This module tracks what's being transfered by the Apache web server in a SQL database (everything with a DBI/DBD driver). This allows to get statistics (of almost everything) without having to parse the log files (like the Apache::Traffic module, just in a "real" database, and with a lot more logged information).
libapache-filter-perl perl Apache::Filter - Alter the output of previous handlers.
It provides functionality similar to Apache::OutputChain, but with a nicer interface (filters are listed in forward order, not reverse, in httpd.conf; and you don't need to write two separate modules, one which chains and one which doesn't [e.g. Apache::SSI and Apache::SSIChain]).
libapache-mod-auth-mysql Apache module for MySQL authentication
An apache module for authenticating users against information stored in a MySQL database
libapache-mod-auth-pam Authenticate web access using PAM
mod_auth_pam implements authentication routines using PAM (Pluggable Authentication Modules) for Apache's authentication protocol.
libapache-mod-auth-pgsql Apache module for PostgreSQL authentication
An apache module for authenticating users against information stored in a PostgreSQL database
libapache-mod-auth-plain Module for Apache which provides plaintext authentication.
mod_auth_plain implements authentication routines using plain text files for Apache's authentication protocol.
libapache-mod-auth-shadow An Apache module for authentication using /etc/shadow
When performing this task one encounters one fundamental difficulty: The /etc/shadow file is supposed to be read/writable only by root. However, the webserver is supposed to run under a non-root user, such as "www-data".
mod_auth_shadow addresses this difficulty by opening a pipe to an suid root program, validate, which does the actual validation. When there is a failure, validate writes an error message to the system log, and waits three seconds before exiting.
libapache-mod-auth-useragent blocks parts of service for certain user agents
This Apache module blocks access to selected parts of web service for clients with specified User-Agent header. Probably the most typical use is to make dumping of the whole site with wget or similar tool harder.
libapache-mod-backhand Load balancing module for Apache web server
mod_backhand is project that allows seamless redirection of HTTP requests from one web server to another. This redirection can be used to target machines with under-utilized resources, thus providing fine-grained, per-request load balancing of web requests.
libapache-mod-cgi-debug Easier debugging of CGI scripts
This module is designed to help with the CGI programming and debugging process. While programming a CGI script, it is often rather difficult to discover what is actually getting returned to the web server. Rather than chopping up your CGI script with a whole bunch of debug print statements, a single change to the action statement of the calling form will bring up a nicely formatted page with all of the information that the web server sees, including any get and post arguments, and the send and receive headers.
Warning: the author doesn't recommend using this module on a production server.
libapache-mod-dav A DAV module for Apache
mod_dav is an Apache module to provide DAV capabilities for the Apache web server.
DAV stands for Distributed Authoring and Versioning. Sometimes, it is referred to as WebDAV. In any case, it is about using HTTP to provide enhanced capabilities to a server. A typical scenario is authoring pages on a website. No more proprietary Fusion, FrontPage, or other extensions, but a standardized way to work with a (web) server. However, DAV is capable of much more than simple authoring -- a quick review of the mailing lists shows that it is being envisioned for document management systems, complex configuration management systems (aka version control, source control; e.g. CVS), and all other kinds of nifty web-based data repositories. A rude paraphrase of its capabilities would be to say that it is a web-based filesystem, augmented with properties on the directories and files.
libapache-mod-dtcl Server side Tcl scripting for Apache
The mod_dtcl Apache module enables the use of Tcl as an HTML-embedded scripting language, similar to PHP. It is fast, light, and lets you use the extensive code base of existing Tcl code, on the web.
libapache-mod-filter Filter documents through a script
This module was designed to allow you to filter outgoing content from your webserver. This works with PHP, Jserv, Mod_perl, standard CGIs, and probably even your custom handlers. You can use it to eg. fix broken documents returned from some script or servlet.
libapache-mod-gzip HTTP compression module for Apache
This module adds 'on the fly' compression of HTTP content to any Apache Web Server. It uses the IETF Content-encoding standard(s).
It will compress both static files and the output of any CGI program including shell scripts, perl scripts, executables, PHP used as CGI, etc.
libapache-mod-index-rss Output RSS indexes of website content
This module provides RSS output for directories. Sites that publish mainly static content to directories (whether images, html...) can use it to have dynamic lists of their content.
libapache-mod-interchange Integration of the Interchange link protocol with Apache
mod_interchange is designed to replace the vlink and tlink programs that come with Interchange. The Interchange link protocol is implemented via an Apache module which saves us the (small) overhead of the execution of a CGI program.
libapache-mod-layout Apache web page content wrapper
mod_layout allows you to create a single look and feel throughout a website without using server side includes to "automagically" wrap pages in standard headers and footers.
It can be used to to add standard disclaimers to all of the pages on a server, add banner ads, etc.
libapache-mod-ldap Apache authentication via LDAP directory
This module adds support for authenticating http requests via LDAP directory. The main difference between it and libapache-ldap-auth is the authentication algorithm -- many people find the one used in libapache-mod-ldap to be more convenient.
libapache-mod-limitipconn Module for Apache which limits simultaneous connections per IP.
The mod_limitipconn module lets you enforce limits on the number of simultaneous downloads allowed from a single IP address. You can also control which MIME types are affected by the limits.
libapache-mod-lisp An Apache module that interfaces with Lisp environments
Establishes a link between the Apache web server and a Lisp environment that allows a Lisp program to generate dynamic content while letting Apache take care of the dirty details of HTTP serving. The protocol between Lisp and Apache is simple, making it easy to create WWW- accessible applications quickly.
libapache-mod-mp3 turns Apache into a streaming audio server
This module turns Apache into a streaming audio server (shoutcast/icecast compatible). It can be enabled on a per-port or per-vhost basis, it can even operate via SSL. Supported audio stream formats are MP3 and OGG Vorbis.
libapache-mod-perl Integration of perl with the Apache web server
mod_perl allows the use of Perl for just about anything Apache-related, including <Perl> sections in the config files and the famous Apache::Registry module for caching compiled scripts.
It can produce anywhere from a 400% to 2000% speed increase on sites using perl scripts, and is used on many large script- based web sites - for example, http://slashdot.org.
libapache-mod-proxy-add-forward Module for Apache which includes 'X-Forwarded-For' header
This module adds a 'X-Forwarded-For' header to outgoing proxy requests like Squid does.
You can then get the client IP back on the proxied host by setting r->connection->remote_ip from this header. It's very useful for the common lightweight frontend/heavy backend mod_perl setup.
libapache-mod-python An Apache module that embeds Python within the server.
Warning: This package use to contain PyApache. It now contains ModPython. This apache module allows you to write web-based applications in Python that will run many times faster than traditional CGI.
This Debian package is built for Python 2.1.
libapache-mod-random Create random ads, quotes and redirects
This module creates randomized content for you website -- random quotes for your scripts, randomly chosen files and redirects to random URLs. It's most useful for inserting various ads.
libapache-mod-relocate support virtual click-through documents
This module creates handler for virtual documents that just redirect to an URI specified as a parameter. You can use them to log the popularity of external links on your site.
libapache-mod-repository Create repositories on Web
Mod Repository can be used to create repository for content (images, html, pretty much anything...). Sample uses are: image server, a content server for a couple of different web logs, a place to archive messages for a BBS and a place to store anonymous content.
libapache-mod-rpaf Module for Apache which takes the last IP from the 'X-Forwarded-For' header
rpaf is short for reverse proxy add forward.
rpaf is for backend Apache servers what mod_proxy_add_forward is for frontend Apache servers. It does exactly the opposite of mod_proxy_add_forward written by Ask Bjorn Hansen.
It changes the remote address of the client visible to other Apache modules when two conditions are satisfied. First condition is that the remote client is actually a proxy that is defined in httpd.conf. Secondly if there is an incoming X-Forwarded-For header and the proxy is in it's list of known proxies it takes the last IP from the incoming X-Forwarded-For header and changes the remote address of the client in the request structure.
libapache-mod-ruby Embedding Ruby in the Apache web server
mod_ruby embeds the Ruby interpreter into the Apache web server, allowing Ruby CGI scripts to be executed natively. These scripts will start up much faster than without mod_ruby.
libapache-mod-speedycgi apache module to speed up perl scripts by making them persistent.
SpeedyCGI is a way to run perl scripts persistently, which usually makes them run much more quickly because it avoids the overhead of starting up a new perl interpreter and compiling the perl code. It is most often used for CGI scripts but it can be used to speed up most perl programs.
libapache-mod-ssl-doc Documentation for Apache module mod_ssl
This package contains the documentation of mod_ssl, an Apache module that provides strong cryptography for the Apache 1.3 webserver via the Secure Sockets Layer (SSL v2/v3) and Transport Layer Security (TLS v1) protocols.

libapache-mod-text2html Better handler for text/plain
This module replaces default Apache's handler for text/plain files with a one that: - converts them to HTML - converts URLs to links - detects binary files and returns them as application/octet-stream instead of text/plain
libapache-mod-trigger Create hooks in Apache
This module give you hooks into each Apache request to launch triggers if certain actions occur. You specify the actions through directives that mod_trigger adds to the webserver.
libapache-mod-webapp IMHO web server connector for Apache
This package enables you to hook up IMHO for use with Apache, using a simple Apache module called 'mod_webapp'.
Theoretically IMHO could use any number of different means of connecting with Apache or other web servers. However, this is currently the only package available for this purpose.
libapache-mod-witch mod_witch is an Apache module to log the access_log via syslog
mod_witch is an Apache module to log the access_log via syslog. It can be configured to log with specific syslog options, such as facility and level. It can either log the client's IP or FQDN.
libapache-mod-xslt XSLT processing module for Apache.
This Apache module uses the Xalan XSLT processing engine to create documents on the fly from XML files and XSLT style sheets.
libapache-reload-perl Reload changed modules in a mod_perl environment
This module is two things. First it is an adaptation of Randal Schwartz's Stonehenge::Reload module that attempts to be a little more intuitive and makes the usage easier. Stonehenge::Reload was written by Randal to make specific modules reload themselves when they changed. Unlike Apache::StatINC, Stonehenge::Reload only checked the change time of modules that registered themselves with Stonehenge::Reload, thus reducing stat() calls. Apache::Reload also offers the exact same functionality as Apache::StatINC, and is thus designed to be a drop-in replacement. Apache::Reload only checks modules that register themselves with Apache::Reload if you explicitly turn off the StatINC emulation method (see below). Like Apache::StatINC, Apache::Reload must be installed as an Init Handler.
libapache-request-perl Generic Apache Request Library
This package contains modules for manipulating client request data via the Apache API with Perl and C. Functionality includes:
- parsing of application/x-www-form-urlencoded data - parsing of multipart/form-data - parsing of HTTP Cookies
The Perl modules are simply a thin xs layer on top of libapreq, making them a lighter and faster alternative to CGI.pm and CGI::Cookie.
libapache-session-perl Perl modules for keeping persistent user data across http requests.
This module makes maintaining user data across http requests simple. It's usable from both mod_perl scripts and more traditional perl CGI scripts.
libapache-ssi-perl perl Apache::SSI - Implement Server Side Includes in Perl.
Apache::SSI implements the functionality of mod_include for handling server-parsed html documents. It is meant to run under Apache's mod_perl.
In my mind, there are two main reasons one might want to use this module: you can sub-class it to implement your own custom SSI directives, and/or you can use an OutputChain to get the SSI output first, then send it through another PerlHandler.
libapache-stage-perl Manage A Staging Directory
A staging place is a place where an author of an HTML document checks the look and feel of a document before it's uploaded to the final location. A staging place doesn't need to be a separate server, nor need it be a mirror of the "real" tree, and not even a tree of symbolic links. A sparse directory tree that holds nothing but the staged files will do.

LibAST is the Library of Assorted Spiffy Things. It contains many spiffy things, and it is a library. Thus, the ever-so-creative name. LibAST has been previously known as libmej, the Eterm helper library which nobody really understood and certainly never used. My current plan is to gradually remove some of the neat stuff from Eterm that could be made generic (things like the theme parsing engine, the command-line options parser, perhaps the event engine, ...) and place it here in the hopes that others will find them useful.

libbitcollider-dev bitcollider library headers
This is the development headers for the bitcollider libs.
Think of it as a really big file hash database on the internet with constant contributions from others of metadata on files.
Bitcollider is a small program to reliably identify and describe files on your machine. When run with a specific file as input, this program does two major things:
* It examines the file, calculating a distinctive digital fingerprint, or bitprint, and taking note of some other identifying information that can be extracted from the file, like file length and the local filename. * It launches your web browser to do a lookup at our website, submitting this identifying information as the search terms.
At bitzi.com you'll see what - if anything - others have said about your file, and have a chance to contribute descriptions or comments yourself. If your automatic submission included information useful to our database, that new information will be contributed to the database under your screen name.

libboost-regex-dev Regular expression library for C++
Part of the Boost.org library collection.
Regular expressions are a form of pattern-matching that are often used in text processing; many users will be familiar with the Unix utilities grep, sed and awk, and the programming language perl, each of which make extensive use of regular expressions. Traditionally C++ users have been limited to the POSIX C APIs for manipulating regular expressions, and while regex does provide these APIs, they do not represent the best way to use the library. For example regex can cope with wide character strings, or search and replace operations (in a manner analogous to either sed or perl), something that traditional C libraries can not do.

libcgi-extratags-perl Useful Extensions for the CGI Module
CGI::Extratags adds several useful methods to the CGI class, such as producing HTML code for a link to an email address or producing HTML code for a table row with the arguments as cell contents.
libcgi-fast-perl CGI::Fast Perl module.
CGI::Fast is a subclass of the CGI object created by CGI.pm. It is specialized to work well with the Open Market FastCGI standard, which greatly speeds up CGI scripts by turning them into persistently running server processes. Scripts that perform time-consuming initialization processes, such as loading large modules or opening persistent database connections, will see large performance improvements.
libcgi-fasttemplate-perl perl module providing easy templates for cgi scripts
This package provides a simple, but elegant and efficient way to add templates to your CGI scripts, so you can separate the logic (and code) from the HTML content of the pages you generate. Useful when the person(s) that design the pages are not the same who program the scripts.
libcgi-formalware-perl Perl module for converting an XML file into a suite of CGI forms
This module supports providing a type of repository for frequently used scripts, which can then be executed locally or remotely (via Net::Telnet), by just entering a password (for remote scripts), and clicking.
libcgi-perl modules for perl5, for use in writing CGI scripts.
In addition to this package, you will also need the URI::Unescape class, which is part of the libwww-perl package. This is the replacement for the now obsolete CGI-modules package.
This package is destined to replace libcgi-pm-perl, but at the moment libcgi-pm-perl (as in the library CGI.pm) serves as the rapid prototyping version, and may be more featureful than this package. Indeed, there has been a hiatus of several years in the development of this module.
This perl 5 library uses objects to create Web fill-out forms on the fly and to parse their contents. It provides a simple interface for parsing and interpreting query strings passed to CGI scripts. However, it also offers a rich set of functions for creating fill-out forms. Instead of remembering the syntax for HTML form elements, you just make a series of perl function calls. An important fringe benefit of this is that the value of the previous query is used to initialize the form, so that the state of the form is preserved from invocation to invocation. This package was downloaded from the site: http://www.genome.wi.mit.edu/ftp/pub/software/WWW/CGIperl/
libcgi-pm-perl a Perl5 CGI Library
This perl 5 library uses objects to create Web fill-out forms on the fly and to parse their contents. It provides a simple interface for parsing and interpreting query strings passed to CGI scripts.

An important fringe benefit of this is that the value of the previous query is used to initialize the form, so that the state of the form is preserved from invocation to invocation.
libcgi-ssi-perl perl CGI::SSI - Use SSI from CGI scripts
CGI::SSI is meant to be used as an easy way to filter shtml through CGI scripts in a loose imitation of Apache's mod_include. If you're using Apache, you may want to use either mod_include or the Apache::SSI module instead of CGI::SSI. Limitations in a CGI script's knowledge of how the server behaves make some SSI directives impossible to imitate from a CGI script.
libcgi-xml-perl Perl module for converting CGI variables from/to XML
This module converts CGI.pm variables to XML and vice versa.
CGI::XML is a subclass of CGI.pm, so it reads the CGI variables just as CGI.pm would.
libcgi-xmlapplication-perl Perl module for creating XML-DOM and OO based CGI scripts
This module provides an XML-DOM and object-oriented extension to the CGI module. The XML-DOM extension allows one to generate the output from XML and laid out according to an XSLT stylesheet, separating code and presentation. The object-oriented extension allows one to specify handlers for events like a mouse click on a submit button or on an image.
libcgi-xmlform-perl Perl module for reading/generating formatted XML
This Perl module can either create form field values from XML based on XQL style queries (full XQL is _not_ supported - this module is designed for speed), or it can create XML from form values.
libcgicg1-dev C library for developing CGI applications
Cgic is an ANSI-C library for the creation of CGI-based World Wide Web applications. Cgic provides the following:

libdbix-recordset-perl Perl extension for DBI recordsets
DBIx::Recordset is a perl module for abstraction and simplification of database access.
The goal is to make standard database access (select/insert/update/delete) easier to handle and independent of the underlying DBMS. Special attention is made on web applications to make it possible to handle the state-less access and to process the posted data of form fields, but DBIx::Recordset is not limited to web applications.
DBIx::Recordset uses the DBI API to access the database, so it should work with every database for which a DBD driver is available (see also DBIx::Compat).
Most public functions take a hash reference as parameter, which makes it simple to supply various different arguments to the same function. The parameter hash can also be taken from a hash containing posted form fields like those available with CGI.pm, mod_perl, HTML::Embperl and others.

libdbix-xmlmessage-perl Perl module for exchanging XML messages between DBI data sources
This module maintains simple XML templates that describe object structure. The module is capable of generating SQL statements based on these templates and executing them against DBI data sources. After executing the SQL, the package formats the data results into XML strings.
Inbound messages can be processed according to the same kind of templates and the database is updated accordingly. Templates are capable of defining the SQL operators, plus new SAVE operation which is basically a combination of SELECT and either INSERT or UPDATE depending on whether the record was found by the compound key value or not.

libexpect-perl Expect.pm - Perl Expect interface
The Expect module is a successor of Comm.pl and a descendent of Chat.pl. It more closely ressembles the Tcl Expect language than its predecessors. It does not contain any of the networking code found in Comm.pl. I suspect this would be obsolete anyway given the advent of IO::Socket and external tools such as netcat.
Expect.pm is an attempt to have more of a switch() & case: feel to make decision processing more fluid. three separate types of debugging have been implemented to make code production easier.
It is now possible to interconnect multiple file handles (and processes) much like Tcl's expect. An attempt was made to enable all the features of Tcl's expect without forcing Tcl on the victim programmer :-) .

libgc6-dev Conservative garbage collector for C (development)
Boehm's GC is a garbage collecting storage allocator that is intended to be used as a plug-in replacement for C's malloc. This package is required to compile and link programs that use libgc6.
Since the collector does not require pointers to be tagged, it does not attempt to ensure that all inaccessible storage is reclaimed. However it has typically been more successful at reclaiming unused memory than most C programs using explicit deallocation. Unlike manually introduced leaks, the amount of unreclaimed memory typically stays bounded.

gdome2 is a fast, light and complete DOM level2 implementation based on libxml2. Although it has been written for the GNOME project, it can be used stand-alone.
A DOM implementation (also called a host implementation) is what makes a parsed XML or HTML document available for processing via a standard interface called DOM.
libgdome2 currently supports the "Core", "XML", "Events" and "MutationEvents" modules from the DOM2 Recommendation (see http://www.w3.org/TR/DOM-Level-2-Core/ and http://www.w3.org/TR/DOM-Level-2-Events/), and is supposed to become a full implementation of all the DOM2 standard.

libgeo-metar-perl (Geo::METAR) is a set of Perl modules which allow accessing of aviation weather information with Perl. The Geo::METAR home page is located at: http://www.wcnet.org/~jzawodn/perl/Geo-METAR/ This is a perl module to allow accessing weather info.
libgetargs-long-perl Perl module to parse long function arguments
The Getargs::Long module allows usage of named parameters in function calls, along with optional argument type-checking. It provides an easy way to get at the parameters within the routine, and yields concise descriptions for the common cases of all-mandatory and all-optional parameter lists.
The validation of arguments can be done by a structure-driven routine getargs() which is fine for infrequently called routines (but should be slower), or via a dedicated routine created and compiled on the fly the first time it is needed, by using the cgetargs() family (expected to be faster).
The Log::Agent module is used to report errors, which leaves to the application the choice of the final logging method: to a file, to STDERR, or to syslog.
Note that this module is still in the alpha stage of development, and the interface to it may change: indeed, it changed between 0.1.2 and 0.1.3.
libgetopt-argfile-perl Perl module for reading script options and parameters from files
This module simply interpolates option file hints in @ARGV by the contents of the pointed files. This enables option reading from files instead of or additional to the usual reading from the command line.
Alternatively, you can process any array instead of @ARGV which is used by default and mentioned mostly in this manual.
The interpolated @ARGV could be subsequently processed by the usual option handling, e.g. by a Getopt::xxx module. Getopt::ArgvFile does not perform any option handling itself, it only prepares the array @ARGV.
libgetopt-declare-perl Getopt::Declare command line argument parser
Getopt::Declare provides facilities to parse command line options. It builds and runs a parser. The parser object can be saved and later run on different input. Key features are:
- Automatic generation of error, usage and version information - Matching of parameter components may be constrained by regular expressions - Execution of embedded actions - Declarative specification of inter-parameter relationships - Selective or global case-insensitive matching of parameters
libgetopt-mixed-perl Perl module for processing options in GNU-style (= long and short)
This module is intended to be the "Getopt-to-end-all-Getop's". It combines flexibility and simplicity. It supports both short options (introduced by `-') and long options (introduced by `--'). Short options which do not take an argument can be grouped together. Short options which do take an argument must be the last option in their group, because everything following the option will be considered to be its argument.

See `libgoops5' for further information.
libgoops5 Shared libraries for goops.
GOOPS is the object oriented extension to Guile.
This package contains everything an application needs to run GOOPS. It basically consists of a shared library which can be dynamically linked into Guile, and a set of Scheme code libraries.
Other GOOPS packages are: libgoops5-dev, goops, goops-doc
The implementation is derived from STk-3.99.3 by Erick Gallesio and version 1.3 of Gregor Kiczales `Tiny-Clos'. It is very close in spirit to CLOS, the Common Lisp Object System (`CLtL2') but is adapted for the Scheme language. While GOOPS is not compatible with any of these systems, GOOPS contains a compatibility module which allows for execution of STKlos programs.
Briefly stated, the GOOPS extension gives the user a full object oriented system with multiple inheritance and generic functions with multi-method dispatch. Furthermore, the implementation relies on a true meta object protocol, in the spirit of the one defined for CLOS (Gregor Kiczales: A Metaobject Protocol).

libgsm-bin User binaries for a GSM speech compressor.
Contains user binaries for libgsm, an implementation of the European GSM 06.10 provisional standard for full-rate speech transcoding, prI-ETS 300 036, which uses RPE/LTP (residual pulse excitation/long term prediction) coding at 13 kbit/s.
GSM 06.10 compresses frames of 160 13-bit samples (8 kHz sampling rate, i.e. a frame rate of 50 Hz) into 260 bits; for compatibility with typical UNIX applications, our implementation turns frames of 160 16-bit linear samples into 33-byte frames (1650 Bytes/s). The quality of the algorithm is good enough for reliable speaker recognition; even music often survives transcoding in recognizable form (given the bandwidth limitations of 8 kHz sampling rate).
The interfaces offered are a front end modelled after compress(1), and a library API. Compression and decompression run faster than realtime on most SPARCstations. The implementation has been verified against the ETSI standard test patterns.

libhsync0 Implements the `hsync' protocol
libhsync is a reference implementation of the hsync extensions to HTTP. hsync makes the web work faster, by caching documents and transferring only the differences between the cached version and the current version.
This works particularly well for dynamically-generated sites, where the pages are often similar but not the same on each visit. Transferring just the difference reduces network traffic and therefore loading time.
This library by itself is likely not useful. You will need a hsync client, of which, rsync is one.
libhtml-clean-perl perl HTML::Clean - Cleans up HTML code for web browsers, not humans.
The HTML::Clean module encapsulates a number of HTML optimizations and cleanups. The end result is HTML that loads faster, displays properly in more browsers. Think of it as a compiler that translates HTML input into optimized machine readable code.

libhtml-simpleparse-perl perl HTML::SimpleParse - a bare-bones HTML parser.
It is a bare-bones HTML parser, similar to HTML::Parser, but with a couple important distinctions:
First, HTML::Parser knows which tags can contain other tags, which start tags have corresponding end tags, which tags can exist only in the <HEAD> portion of the document, and so forth. HTML::SimpleParse does not know any of these things. It just finds tags and text in the HTML you give it, it does not care about the specific content of these tags (though it does distinguish between different _types_ of tags, such as comments, starting tags like <b>, ending tags like </b>, and so on).
Second, HTML::SimpleParse does not create a hierarchical tree of HTML content, but rather a simple linear list. It does not pay any attention to balancing start tags with corresponding end tags, or which pairs of tags are inside other pairs of tags.
libhtml-table-perl Perl module for creating HTML tables
HTML::Table is used to generate HTML tables for CGI scripts. By using the methods provided fairly complex tables can be created, manipulated, then printed from Perl scripts. The module also greatly simplifies creating tables within tables from Perl. It is possible to create an entire table using the methods provided and never use an HTML tag.
HTML::Table also allows for creating dynamically sized tables via its addRow and addCol methods. These methods automatically resize the table if passed more cell values than will fit in the current table grid.
Methods are provided for nearly all valid table, row, and cell tags specified for HTML 3.0.

The file written with HTML and these new tags is called a template. It is usually saved separate from your script - possibly even created by someone else! Using this module you fill in the values for the variables, loops and branches declared in the template. This allows you to separate design - the HTML - from the data, which you generate in the Perl script.
libhtml-tree-perl represent and create HTML syntax trees

libirman-dev library for accessing the IRMAN hardware.
libirman is a library for accessing the IRMAN hardware from Linux and other Unix systems.
For general applications programming, the preferred interface for infra-red control is `lirc', as lirc supports multiple programs sharing the same infra-red receiver. It does this by providing a socket based interface to which several programs can connect.
lirc uses libirman to interface with the Irman hardware, so in single use applications directly using libirman is simpler and uses less system resources. Currently, lirc only works on Linux systems, so programs written using libirman directly are more portable.
NOTE: This debian package is mainly provided so that Irman support can be enabled in lirc package and there is no libirman0 because upstream doesn't build a shared library.

libmagick++5-dev The object-oriented C++ API to the ImageMagick library.--development
This are the include files and static libraries needed to compile programs using libMagick++.
libmagick++5 The object-oriented C++ API to the ImageMagick library
Magick++ supports an object model which is inspired by PerlMagick. Magick++ executes faster than PerlMagick since it is accessed from a compiled language rather than from a scripting language. This makes it more suitable for Web CGI programs which must start-up and execute quickly. Images support implicit reference counting so that copy constructors and assignment incur almost no cost. The cost of actually copying an image (if necessary) is done just before modification and this copy is managed automatically by Magick++. De-referenced copies are automatically deleted. The image objects support value (rather than pointer) semantics so it is trivial to support multiple generations of an image in memory at one time.
Magick++ provides integrated support for STL. This support allows Magick++ to be used with the Standard Template Library (STL) so that the powerful containers available (e.g. deque, vector, list, and map) can be used to write programs similar to those possible with PERL & PerlMagick. STL-compatible template versions of ImageMagick's list-style operations are provided so that operations may be performed on multiple images stored in STL containers.

libpoe-component-irc-perl a fully event-driven IRC client module.
POE::Component::IRC is a POE component (who'd have guessed?) which acts as an easily controllable IRC client for your other POE components and sessions. You create an IRC component and tell it what events your session cares about and where to connect to, and it sends back interesting IRC events when they happen. You make the client do things by sending it events. That's all there is to it. Cool, no?
[Note that using this module requires some familiarity with the details of the IRC protocol. I'd advise you to read up on the gory details of RFC 1459 <http://cs-pub.bu.edu/pub/irc/support/rfc1459.txt> before you get started. Keep the list of server numeric codes handy while you program. Needless to say, you'll also need a good working knowledge of POE, or this document will be of very little use to you.]
libpoe-component-jobqueue-perl POE component to manage queues and worker pools

libquantum-entanglement-perl Quantum Mechanic entanglement of variables in perl
One of the more popular interpretations of quantum mechanics holds that instead of particles always being in a single, well defined, state they instead exist as an almost ghostly overlay of many different states (or values) at the same time. Of course, it is our experience that when we look at something, we only ever find it in one single state. This is explained by the many states of the particle collapsing to a single state and highlights the importance of observation.
Essentially, this allows you to put variables into a superposition of states, have them interact with each other (so that all states interact) and then observe them (testing to see if they satisfy some comparison operator, printing them) which will collapse the entire system so that it is consistent with your knowledge.

format() Format text into a paragraph. Text is first broken into words and then joined back together to make up the paragraph. There are numerous attributes you can set to your liking.
paragraphs() Treats each element of the array passed in as a separate paragraph and passes them to format() for formatting. The list returned will be then formatted into separate paragraphs.
center() Centers all the lines that were passed in.
expand() Expand tabs into spaces.
unexpand() Turn spaces into tabs. First calls expand() to expand tabs into spaces and then turns tabstop number of spaces into tabs, you can set tabstop size with tabstop().

libtext-query-perl Text::Query - Query processing framework
This module provides an object that matches a data source against a query expression.
Query expressions are compiled into an internal form when a new object is created or the `prepare' method is called; they are not recompiled on each match.
The class provided by this module uses four packages to process the query. The query parser parses the question and calls a query expression builder (internal form of the question). The optimizer is then called to reduce the complexity of the expression. The solver applies the expression on a data source.
libtext-querysql-perl Text-Query-SQL provides query builders for SQL databases
Text-Query-SQL is derived from the Text-Query module. What is Text-Query then ? It is a general purpose query parser and resolver. It is able to parse the AltaVista 'simple query' and 'advanced query' syntax. The resulting syntax tree is then used to build a search query that depends on the database used.
Text-Query-SQL provides query builders for SQL databases. Searching 'foo and bar' will retrieve rows containing the words foo and bar. It does it by generating the appropriate SQL request.
At present Text-Query-SQL only supports MySQL but one could easily add support for any other database (see DATABASE file), the module was architected to make this easy.
libtext-template-perl Text::Template perl module
This is a library for generating form letters, building HTML pages, or filling in templates generally. A `template' is a piece of text that has little Perl programs embedded in it here and there. When you `fill in' a template, you evaluate the little programs and replace them with their values.

libtie-cache-perl perl Tie::Cache - LRU Cache in Memory.
This module implements a least recently used (LRU) cache in memory through a tie interface. Any time data is stored in the tied hash, that key/value pair has an entry time associated with it, and as the cache fills up, those members of the cache that are the oldest are removed to make room for new entries.
So, the cache only "remembers" the last written entries, up to the size of the cache. This can be especially useful if you access great amounts of data, but only access a minority of the data a majority of the time.

libunicode-dev The GNOME Unicode library - development files.
libunicode is a library for manipulating Unicode characters and strings. It understands both the UTF-8 and UCS-2 encodings, and has a framework for adding support for new encodings.
libunicode-map-perl Perl module for mapping charsets from and to utf16 unicode
This module converts strings from and to 2-byte Unicode UCS2 format. All mappings happen via 2 byte UTF16 encodings, not via 1 byte UTF8 encoding. To convert between UTF8 and UTF16 use Unicode::String.
For historical reasons this module coexists with Unicode::Map8. Please use Unicode::Map8 unless you need to care for >1 byte character sets, e.g. chinese GB2312. Anyway, if you stick to the basic functionality (see documentation) you can use both modules equivalently.
You need the libwww-perl package to run the example mirrorMappings.
libunicode-map8-perl Perl module to map 8bit character sets to Unicode
The Unicode::Map8 class implements efficient mapping tables between 8-bit character sets and 16 bit character sets like Unicode. About 170 different mapping tables between various known character sets and Unicode is distributed with this package. The source of these tables is the vendor mapping tables provided by Unicode, Inc. and the code tables in RFC 1345. New maps can easily be installed.
libunicode-maputf8-perl Perl module for conversing between any character sets and UTF8
This module provides an adapter layer between core routines for converting to and from UTF8 and other encodings. In essence, a way to give multiple existing Unicode modules a single common interface so you don't have to know the underlying implementations to do simple UTF8 to-from other character set encoding conversions. As such, it wraps the Unicode::String, Unicode::Map8, Unicode::Map and Jcode modules in a standardized and simple API.
This also provides general character set conversion operation based on UTF8 - it is possible to convert between any two compatible and supported character sets via a simple two step chaining of conversions.
As with most things Perlish - if you give it a few big chunks of text to chew on instead of lots of small ones it will handle many more characters per second.
By design, it can be easily extended to encompass any new charset encoding conversion modules that arrive on the scene.

libxaw7-dbg X Athena widget set library (unstripped)
This package is useful to provide a backtrace with symbol names in a debugger; this facilitates interpretation of core dumps, and aids in finding logic errors in programs using this library (or the library itself). The library is installed in /usr/X11R6/lib/debug and can be used by placing that directory in the LD_LIBRARY_PATH environment variable when the code to be debugged is executed.
Non-programmers will likely have little use for this package. See the libxaw7 package for further information.
libxaw7-dev X Athena widget set library development files
Xaw header files, a static library, and a manual page documenting new features in version 7 of the Athena widget library are provided by this package.
libxaw7 X Athena widget set library
Xaw is a widget set based on the the Xt (X Toolkit Intrinsics) library. It provides a set of graphical user-interface elements ("widgets") such as menus, scrollbars, dialog boxes, text-input areas, and so forth. The X clients distributed with the X Window System itself, as well as many others, use the Athena widget set.
XFree86 has made a number of major improvements to the Athena widget set, resulting in version 7 -- this version features widgets customizable in appearance and event handling (a.k.a. "themes"); an extensible image loader (currently supports bitmaps, gradients, and pixmaps); numerous enhancements to the Text widget, text source and text sink objects; and multiple-column support in the SimpleMenu widget.
The older Athena widget library corresponding to version X11R6.4 of the X Window System can be found in the libxaw6 package.
libxbase-perl Perl module to access xbase files (optionally through DBI).
This module allows access to .dbf files (it can create them, also), it handles memo files, but indexes only in a somewhat limited way. It has two interfaces: one using SQL commands (through DBI) ad the other with a simple OO interface. You can use the dbfdump program to dump the content of a .dbf file.

libxg-dev graphics libraries from plan9
libXg.a, libframe.a and /usr/share/man/man3 extracted from sam. These provide a simplified graphics interface which looks much simpler than X. If anyone actually uses this for anything, we can then rebuild this with shared libraries.
If you plan on doing development with libXg, you'll probably want to have a copy of sam installed (for the file format man pages) or a copy of sam's source (which, of course, also has example code).
libxine-dev the xine video player library, development packages
This contains development files (headers, documentation and the like) for the xine library (libxine).
Libxine provides the complete infrastructure for a video/media player. It supports MPEG 1/2 and some AVI and Quicktime videos out of the box, so you can use it to play DVDs, (S)VCDs and most video files out there. It supports network streams, subtitles and even mp3 files. It's extensible to your heart's content via plugins for audio_out, video_out, input media, demuxers (stream types), audio/video and subtitle codecs. Building a GUI (or text based) frontend around this should be quite easy. The xine-ui package provides one for your convenience, so you can just start watching your VCDs ;-)

xkbsel is a framework for defining, selecting, and indicating XKB keyboard mappings, without the need to modify X11 distribution in any way.
This package contains the xkbsel development libraries and header files. Some documentation is available in the `xkbsel' package.
libxml-catalog-perl Perl module for resolving public and system identifiers
This module implements draft 0.4 of John Cowan's XML Catalog (formerly known as XCatalog) proposal (<http://www.ccil.org/~cowan/XML/XCatalog.html>). Catalogs may be written in either SOCAT or XML syntax (see the proposal for syntax details); XML::Catalog will assume SOCAT syntax if the catalog is not in well-formed XML syntax.
libxml-checker-perl Perl module for validating XML
This module contains several classes for validating XML:
XML::Checker - contains the XML::Checker class that is used by the others XML::Checker::Parser - an XML::Parser that validates at parse time XML::DOM::ValParser - an XML::DOM::Parser that validates at parse time
libxml-csv-perl Perl module for transforming CSV documents into XML
This module provides functions to easily transform CSV documents into XML. The module uses Text::CSV_XS to parse csv files and put into perl data structure. The perl data structure is then written into xml data structure. XML::CSV allows to create your own Text::CSV_XS object with defaults that fit your needs or just use defaults.
libxml-dev Development files for the GNOME XML library
XML is a metalanguage to let you design your own markup language. A regular markup language defines a way to describe information in a certain class of documents (eg HTML). XML lets you define your own customized markup languages for many classes of document. It can do this because it's written in SGML, the international standard metalanguage for markup languages.
Install this package if you wish to develop your own programs using the GNOME XML library.
libxml-dom-perl Perl module for building DOM Level 1 compliant doc structures
This module parses XML strings or files and builds a data structure that conforms to the API of the Document Object Model as described at http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-DOM-Level-1. See the XML::Parser manpage for other available features of the XML::DOM::Parser class.
The suggested packages are only needed for the examples.
libxml-dumper-perl Perl module for dumping Perl objects from/to XML
XML::Dumper dumps Perl data to a structured XML format.
XML::Dumper can also read XML data that was previously dumped by the module and convert it back to Perl.

This might be useful for dumping Perl objects to files using an XML format that can be reloaded or accessed by other programs. Maybe even other languages.
libxml-encoding-perl Perl module for parsing encoding map XML files
This module, built as a subclass of XML::Parser, parses encoding map XML files. Included in the package is the compile_encoding script that compiles these to the binary form used by XML::Parser in order to parse scripts in the given encoding. Also included is a script that generates encoding map XML files from the type of mapping files obtained at ftp://ftp.unicode.org/Public/MAPPINGS.
Several encoding maps are included in the maps subdirectory.
libxml-filter-detectws-perl Perl module for detecting ignorable whitespace
This module is a PerlSAX filter that detects which character data contains ignorable whitespace and optionally filters it.
The XML spec defines ignorable whitespace as the character data found in elements that were defined in an <!ELEMENT> declaration with a model of 'EMPTY' or 'Children' (Children is the rule that does not contain '#PCDATA').
In addition, XML::Filter::DetectWS allows the user to define other whitespace to be ignorable. The ignorable whitespace is passed to the PerlSAX Handler with the ignorable_whitespace handler, provided that the Handler implements this method. Otherwise it is passed to the characters handler. If the SkipIgnorableWS is set, the ignorable whitespace is simply discarded. XML::Filter::DetectWS also takes xml:space attributes into account.
CDATA sections are passed in the standard PerlSAX way (i.e. with surrounding start_cdata and end_cdata events), unless the Handler does not implement these methods. In that case, the CDATA section is simply passed to the characters method.
libxml-filter-reindent-perl Perl module for reformatting whitespace for pretty printing XML
This module can be used as a PerlSAX filter to reformat an XML document before sending it to a PerlSAX handler that prints it (like XML::Handler::Composer).
Like XML::Filter::DetectWS, it detects ignorable whitespace and blocks of whitespace characters in certain places. It uses this information and information supplied by the user to determine where whitespace may be modified, deleted or inserted. Based on the indent settings, it then modifies, inserts and deletes characters and ignorable_whitespace events accordingly.
This is just a first stab at the implementation. It may be buggy and may change completely!
libxml-filter-saxt-perl Perl module for replicating events to several event handlers
This module is like the Unix 'tee' command in that it multiplexes the input stream to several output streams. In this case, the input stream is a PerlSAX event producer (like XML::Parser::PerlSAX) and the output streams are PerlSAX handlers or filters.
The SAXT constructor takes a list of hash references. Each hash specifies an output handler. The hash keys can be: DocumentHandler, DTDHandler, EntityResolver or Handler, where Handler is a combination of the previous three and acts as the default handler. E.g. if DocumentHandler is not specified, it will try to use Handler.
libxml-filter-xslt-perl Perl module for XSLT as a SAX Filter
This module implements XSLT as a SAX Filter. At the moment it only uses XML::LibXSLT as an XSLT transformer, but hopefully in the future we can support others too (it's written with that in mind).
The beauty is you can stick other things in the transformation chain if you want, or you can make the writer use XML::Handler::HTMLWriter if you want to write out valid HTML 4.0, or you can make the generator something like XML::Generator::DBI. The possibilities are endless.
libxml-generator-perl Perl module for generating XML files
This is a simple module to help in the generation of XML. Basically, you create an XML::Generator object and then call a method for each tag, supplying the contents of that tag as parameters.
libxml-grove-perl Perl module for accessing parsed *ML instances
This module provides simple access to the information set of parsed XML, HTML, or SGML instances using a tree of Perl hashes. This package also includes several extensions to XML::Grove that provide the following:
* returning element contents as a string * returning element contents as XML, HTML, or Canonical XML * processing entire groves using the visitor pattern * processing entire groves using PerlSAX * running a filter over all nodes in the grove * substituting values into an XML template grove * indexing a grove by ID or other attributes * accessing elements and objects via URL-like paths
libxml-handler-composer-perl Perl module for generating XML output
This module is similar to XML::Writer, XML::Handler::XMLWriter, XML::Handler::YAWriter etc. in that it generates XML output.
This implementation may not be fast and it may not be the best solution for your particular problem, but it has some features that may be missing in the other implementations.
libxml-handler-printevents-perl Perl module for printing PerlSAX events (for debugging)
This module prints the PerlSAX events it receives to STDOUT. It can be useful when debugging PerlSAX filters. It supports all PerlSAX handler including ignorable_whitespace.
libxml-handler-trees-perl Perl module for building tree structures using PerlSAX handlers
This module provides three PerlSAX handler classes for building tree structures. XML::Handler::Tree builds the same type of tree as the "Tree" style in XML::Parser. XML::Handler::EasyTree builds the same type of tree as the "EasyTree" style added to XML::Parser by XML::Parser::EasyTree. XML::Handler::TreeBuilder builds the same type of tree as Sean M. Burke's XML::TreeBuilder. These classes make it possible to construct these tree structures from sources other than XML::Parser.
All three handlers can be driven by either PerlSAX 1 or PerlSAX 2 drivers. In all cases, the end_document() method returns a reference to the constructed tree, which normally becomes the return value of the PerlSAX driver.
libxml-handler-yawriter-perl Perl module for writing XML documents
This module implements Yet Another XML::Handler::Writer. The reasons for this one are needing a flexible escaping technique, and wanting some kind of pretty printing.
libxml-libxml-perl Perl module for using the Gnome libxml2 library
This module is an interface to the gnome libxml2 DOM parser (no SAX parser support yet), and the DOM tree. It also provides an XML::XPath-like findnodes() interface, providing access to the XPath API in libxml2.
libxml-libxslt-perl Perl module for using the Gnome libxslt library
This module is a fast XSLT library, based on the Gnome libxslt engine.
Performance is currently about twice that of XML::Sablotron (based on XSLTMark tests converted to Perl).
The libxslt processor is also highly standards compliant, with practically all of XSLT 1.0 being supported in version 0.9 of libxslt.
libxml-namespacesupport-perl Perl module for supporting simple generic namespaces
This module offers a simple to process namespaced XML names (unames) from within any application that may need them. It also helps maintain a prefix to namespace URI map, and provides a number of basic checks.
The model for this module is SAX2's NamespaceSupport class, readable at http://www.megginson.com/SAX/Java/javadoc/org/xml/sax/helpers/ /NamespaceSupport.html. It adds a few perlisations where thought to be appropriate.
libxml-node-perl Perl module for parsing XML files node based
This module allows you to register callback functions or variables for any XML node. If you register a call back function, it will be called when the node of the type you specified are encountered. If you register a variable, the content of a XML node will be appended to that variable automatically.
libxml-parser-perl Perl module for parsing XML files
This module provides ways to parse XML documents. It is built on top of XML::Parser::Expat, which is a lower level interface to James Clark's expat library. Each call to one of the parsing methods creates a new instance of XML::Parser::Expat which is then used to parse the document. Expat options may be provided when the XML::Parser object is created. These options are then passed on to the Expat object on each parse call. They can also be given as extra arguments to the parse methods, in which case they override options given at XML::Parser creation time.
The behavior of the parser is controlled either by Style and/or Handlers options, or by setHandlers method. These all provide mechanisms for XML::Parser to set the handlers needed by XML::Parser::Expat. If neither Style nor Handlers are specified, then parsing just checks the document for being well-formed.
When underlying handlers get called, they receive as their first parameter the Expat object, not the Parser object.
libxml-parser-ruby The interface of expat for the scripting language Ruby.
This is the module to access to James Clark's XML Parser Toolkit "expat" <URL:http://www.jclark.com/xml/expat.html> from Ruby.
libxml-perl Perl modules for working with XML
libxml-perl is a collection of smaller Perl modules, scripts, and documents for working with XML in Perl. libxml-perl software works in combination with XML::Parser, PerlSAX, XML::DOM, XML::Grove and others.
libxml-regexp-perl Perl module for regular expressions for XML tokens
This module provides regular expressions for the following XML tokens: BaseChar, Ideographic, Letter, Digit, Extender, CombiningChar, NameChar, EntityRef, CharRef, Reference, Name, NmToken, and AttValue.
The definitions of these tokens were taken from the XML spec (Extensible Markup Language 1.0) at http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-xml.
Also contains the regular expressions for the following tokens from the XML Namespaces spec at http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-xml-names: NCNameChar, NCName, QName, Prefix and LocalPart.
libxml-rss-perl Perl module for managing RSS (RDF Site Summary) files
This module provides a basic framework for creating and maintaining RDF Site Summary (RSS) files. This distribution also contains many examples that allow you to generate HTML from an RSS, convert between 0.9, 0.91, and 1.0 version, and other nifty things. This might be helpful if you want to include news feeds on your Web site from sources like Slashot and Freshmeat or if you want to syndicate your own content.
XML::RSS currently supports 0.9, 0.91, and 1.0 versions of RSS. See http://my.netscape.com/publish/help/mnn20/quickstart.html for information on RSS 0.91. See http://my.netscape.com/publish/help/ for RSS 0.9. See http://purl.org/rss/1.0/ for RSS 1.0.
RSS was originally developed by Netscape as the format for Netscape Netcenter channels, however, many Web sites have since adopted it as a simple syndication format. With the advent of RSS 1.0, users are now able to syndicate many different kinds of content including news headlines, threaded messages, products catalogs, etc.
libxml-sablot-perl encapsulation of the Sablotron XSL processor
XML::Sablotron is a very simple Perl package, which encapsulates C API of Sablotron XSL processor. The only important fact is, that this package uses a dynamic linking of Sablotron.
libxml-sax-expat-perl Perl module for a SAX2 driver for Expat (XML::Parser)
This module is an implementation of a SAX2 driver sitting on top of Expat (XML::Parser). It is still incomplete, though most of the basic SAX2 events should be available.
libxml-sax-perl Perl module for using and building Perl SAX2 XML processors
This module consists of several framework classes for using and building Perl SAX2 XML parsers, filters, and drivers. It is designed around the need to be able to "plug in" different SAX parsers to an application without requiring programmer intervention. Those of you familiar with the DBI will be right at home. Some of the designs come from the Java JAXP specification (SAX part), only without the javaness.
This package also contains a script (called update-perl-sax-parsers) to manage the ParserDetails.ini file. This script is intended to be used in postinst and prerm package scripts to (de)register parsers. See README.Debian for more info.
libxml-sax-simple-perl Perl module for a SAX version of XML::Simple
This module is a very simple version of XML::Simple but for SAX. It can be used as a complete drop-in replacement for XML::Simple.
libxml-sax-writer-perl Perl module for a SAX2 XML writer
This module provides a SAX2 XML writer. It is still considered alpha, though it has been put to limited used.
libxml-simple-perl Perl module for reading ands writing XML
This module provides a simple API layer on top of XML::Parser.
libxml-stream-perl Perl module for accessing XML Streams
This module provides access to XML Streams. An XML Stream is just that: A stream of XML over a connection between two computers. For more information about XML Streams, and the group that created them, please visit:
http://etherx.jabber.org/streams
libxml-twig-perl Perl module for processing huge XML documents in tree mode
This module provides a way to process XML documents. It is build on top of XML::Parser.
The module offers a tree interface to the document, while allowing to output the parts of it that have been completely processed.
It allows minimal resource (CPU and memory) usage by building the tree only for the parts of the documents that need actual processing, through the use of the <twig_roots|twig_roots and twig_print_outside_roots|twig_print_outside_roots options. The finish|finish and finish_print|finish_print methods also help to increase performances.
XML::Twig tries to make simple things easy so it tries its best to takes care of a lot of the (usually) annoying (but sometimes necessary) features that come with XML and XML::Parser.
libxml-um-perl Perl module for converting UTF-8 strings
This module provides methods to convert UTF-8 strings to any XML encoding that XML::Encoding supports. It creates mapping routines from the .xml files that can be found in the maps/ directory in the XML::Encoding distribution. Note that the XML::Encoding distribution does install the .enc files in your perl directory, but not the.xml files they were created from. That's why you have to specify $ENCDIR as in the SYNOPSIS.
This implementation uses the XML::Encoding class to parse the .xml file and creates a hash that maps UTF-8 characters (each consisting of up to 4 bytes) to their equivalent byte sequence in the specified encoding. Note that large mappings may consume a lot of memory!
Future implementations may parse the .enc files directly, or do the conversions entirely in XS (i.e. C code).
libxml-writer-perl Perl module for writing XML documents
XML::Writer is a helper module for Perl programs that write an XML document. The module handles all escaping for attribute values and character data and constructs different types of markup, such as tags, comments, and processing instructions.
By default, the module performs several well-formedness checks to catch errors during output. This behaviour can be extremely useful during development and debugging, but it can be turned off for production-grade code.
The module can operate either in regular mode in or Namespace processing mode. In Namespace mode, the module will generate Namespace Declarations itself, and will perform additional checks on the output.
Additional support is available for a simplified data mode with no mixed content: newlines are automatically inserted around elements and elements can optionally be indented based as their nesting level.
libxml-xpath-perl Perl module for processing XPath
This module implements the W3C's XPath specification. It aims to be completely correct to the letter of the spec, and yet still allow extensions through the use of functions and variables, such as are provided by XSLT and XPointer.
libxml-xql-perl Perl module for querying XML tree structures with XQL
This module implements the XQL (XML Query Language) proposal submitted to the XSL Working Group in September 1998. The spec can be found at: http://www.w3.org/TandS/QL/QL98/pp/xql.html. Most of the contents related to the XQL syntax can also be found in the XML::XQL::Tutorial that comes with this distribution. Note that XQL is not the same as XML-QL!
The current implementation only works with the XML::DOM module, but once the design is stable and the major bugs are flushed out, other extensions might follow, e.g. for XML::Grove.
XQL was designed to be extensible and this implementation tries to stick to that. Users can add their own functions, methods, comparison operators and data types. Plugging in a new XML tree structure (like XML::Grove) should be a piece of cake.
libxml-xslt-perl Perl module for processing XSLT
This module parses XSL Transformational sheets. For a description of the XSLT, see http://www.w3.org/TR/xslt. Currently, it uses XML::Parser and XML::DOM, but an effort is being made to use XML::XPath.

libxstr-ocaml-dev OCaml library for frequent string operations
xstr is an OCaml library for string operations.
This package implements frequent string operations: searching, replacing, splitting, matching. It is independent from the Str library, and can replace Str in many cases. Unlike Str, xstr is thread-safe. xstr does not implement regular expressions in general, but an important subset. Some operations of xstr are performed as quickly as by Str; if the string to be processed is small, xstr is often faster than Str; if the string is big, xstr is up to half as fast than Str.

lifelines-reports Reports for lifelines, a genealogy software system
Lifelines has a very powerful reporting language. This package includes all "standard" reports, which come with the official Lifelines distribution.
lifelines Text-based genealogy software
LifeLines is a genealogy program that runs on UNIX systems in text mode. It maintains genealogical records (persons, families, sources, events and others) in a database, and generates reports from those records.
There are no practical limits on the number of records that can be stored in a LifeLines database, nor on the amounts or kinds of data that can be kept in the records.
LifeLines does not contain built-in reports. Instead it provides a programming subsystem that you use to program your own reports and charts. Some standard report files are included in the lifelines-reports package.
The programming subsystem also lets you query your databases and process your data in any way. LifeLines uses the terminal independent features of UNIX to provide a screen and menu based user interface.
lightlab experiment with the OpenGL lighting model
lightlab lets you set the colours and positions of several light sources, and then watch the effect that it has on a simple 3D scene. You can select whether the scene contains a rotating cube, sphere, or teapot, and whether that object has a texture image on its surface.
lightlab is not a modelling program; it doesn't even let you save anything. But if you're having trouble wrapping your brain around the various parameters you can set in OpenGL code, you may find it helpful.
lightspeed Shows how objects moving at relativistic speeds look like.
Light Speed! is an OpenGL-based program which illustrates the effects of special relativity on the appearance of moving objects. When an object accelerates past a few million meters per second, these effects begin to grow noticeable, becoming more and more pronounced as the speed of light is approached. These relativistic effects are viewpoint-dependent, and include shifts in length, object hue, brightness and shape.
The moving object is, by default, a geometric lattice. 3D Studio and LightWave 3D objects may be imported as well. Best of all, the simulator is completely interactive, rendering the exotic distortions in real-time!

linesrv A server to remotely control the internet connection.
LineControl runs a server application on a masquerading - server (Linux). Clients on other hosts may now talk to this server and say that it should establish a certain line (usually using pppd/chat, isdnctrl or some other script). LineControl Server then calls a certain shellscript and waits until a specified network - device is up (for analog lines), until /dev/isdninfo changes its status (if using the ISDN capabilities) or until a certain file exists. Then it sends to all connected Clients a message that the connection is established. The connection won't get killed until each client told to do so, had a timeout or has been terminated. LineControl provides a nice status monitor via two easy to use cgi-bin pages.

logout-button log out from your X session by pressing a button on your screen.
This is a button that appears on your screen when you log into xdm. When you press it, it logs you out of the session.
You need to have a file called .xsession in your home dir that starts the logout button in the foreground and your window manager in the background. By putting other things in this file, you can do things like change your background to your favorite image, start a clock and/or a terminal window, or even add a rotating earth or fish tank! You can start any number of programs as long as you background them.
An example of .xsession is in /usr/doc/logout-button/examples and if you edit it choosing your favorite window manager, it will try to find and use it. Remember to place it in ~you/.xsession and make it executable. If you don't edit it, it will try to find and use the fvwm2 window mgr.
X infrastructure has a mechanism which waits for some program to exit indicating the user wishes to end his X session. logout-button is the simplest form of such a "session manager".
The example .xsession file provided in the doc/examples directory picks a window manager to run, starts it in the background, optionally starts other clients (xterm, xearth, xfishtank) also in the background and finally starts the session manager (logout-button) in the foreground, replacing the process and process ID belonging to the shell interpreting the .xsession. Because the infrastructure of X is waiting for this process to exit, when logout-button is pushed, the session is ended.
logrotate Log rotation utility
The logrotate utility is designed to simplify the administration of log files on a system which generates a lot of log files. Logrotate allows for the automatic rotation compression, removal and mailing of log files. Logrotate can be set to handle a log file daily, weekly, monthly or when the log file gets to a certain size. Normally, logrotate runs as a daily cron job.
logtail Returns parts of logfiles that have not already been returned
This program will read in a standard text file and create an offset marker when it reads the end. The offset marker is read the next time logtail is run and the text file pointer is moved to the offset location. This allows logtail to read in the next lines of data following the marker. This is good for marking log files for automatic log file checkers to monitor system events.
This program is mainly used by logcheck, because it returns only parts of the system logfiles that have not already been checked.
logtool Syslog-style logfile parser with lots of output options
logtool is a syslog-style logfile parser and report-generator, capable of producing ANSI, ASCII, CSV (for spreadsheets), HTML or just raw output.
It's very handy in generating nightly reports and in online monitoring of logfile activity.
logtools Russell's misc tools for managing log files.
clfmerge - merge common-log-format web logs in order without sorting (good for when you have a gig of logs).
logprn - like "tail -f" but after a specified time period of inactivity will run a program (such as lpr) and pipe the new data to it)
funnel - pipe one stream of data to several files or processes.
clfsplit - split CLF format web logs by client IP address.
clfdomainsplit - split CLF logs by server domain.

lout-doc Documentation on the Lout typesetting system
Documents describing the Lout document formatting system:
o A Practical Introduction to the Lout Document Formatting System (overhead transparencies) o A User's Guide to the Lout Document Formatting System o An Expert's Guide to the Lout Document Formatting System o `The design and implementation of the Lout document formatting language', Software--Practice and Experience, vol. 23, pp. 1001-1041 (September 1993)
lout Typesetting system, an alternative to (La)TeX.
Lout is a document formatting system similar in style to LaTeX, i.e. it works with mark-up files - plain text files containing commands to control the formatting.
Lout offers a very full range of features, including o PostScript, PDF, and plain text output o optimal paragraph and page breaking o automatic hyphenation o PostScript EPS file inclusion and generation o equation formatting, tables, diagrams o rotation and scaling o sorted indexes, bibliographic databases o running headers and odd-even pages, automatic cross referencing o multilingual documents including hyphenation (most European languages are supported, including Russian), o formatting of C/C++ programs.
Lout may be extended by writing definitions which are much simpler than the equivalent troff or TeX macros.
Lout has several advantages over (La)TeX. It is much smaller, and it is much easier to understand how to do things in Lout (including writing definitions) than in TeX or LaTeX. Lout's PostScript output is very small and clean.
However, it is much less widely used than (La)TeX, so there are fewer add-on definition packages for Lout than for (La)TeX and fewer local experts around to ask about problems. You are unlikely to find many Lout documents floating around the 'net.
lp-solve Solve (mixed integer) linear programming problems
The linear programming (LP) problem can be formulated as: Solve A.x >= V1, with V2.x maximal. A is a matrix, x a vector of (nonnegative) variables, V1 a vector called the right hand side, and V2 a vector specifying the objective function.
An integer linear programming (ILP) problem is an LP with the constraint that all the variables are integers. In a mixed integer linear programming (MILP) problem, some of the variables are integer and others are real.
The program lp_solve solves LP, ILP, and MILP problems. It is slightly more general than suggested above, in that every row of A (specifying one constraint) can have its own (in)equality, <=, >= or =. The result specifies values for all variables.
lp_solve uses the 'Simplex' algorithm and sparse matrix methods for pure LP problems. If one or more of the variables is declared integer, the Simplex algorithm is iterated with a branch and bound algorithm, until the desired optimal solution is found. lp_solve can read MPS format input files.
lpe Lightweight Programmer's Editor
Lpe stands for "lightweight programmer's editor", and is exactly that. It is designed to provide at the same time all the features that might be required in a decent code editor and a light, intuitive feel that makes it a pleasure to work with, making all necessary commands accessible as easily as possible.

lsh baby shell for novices with DOS compatible commands
Lsh is a shell partially inspired by some command interpreters for PC monitors (such as 4-DOS, DR-DOS, MS-DOS, N-DOS, PC-DOS, Q-DOS and others, which might be trademarks of their owners and which is hereby acknowledged). However, most of the features of this shell are simply adapted from Unix (which also happens to be a trademark) shells.
Lsh is especially useful for users who have had some DOS experience and are now supposed to do something under UNIX. This shell will ease the transition and make the usage of dialup services extremely easy for them.
Note that this has nothing to do with the lsh Secure Shell v2 (SSH2) protocol implementation. If you need that SSH2 client, install lsh-client and see the lshc command.
upstream webpage: http://people.cs.uct.ac.za/~mwelz/lsh.html
lshell Enforce limits to protect system integrity.
This program enforces resource quotas stored in a configuration file. It is easier and more secure that writing a shell script in /etc/profile and trying to compare user names in hard-coded if/else type trees.
lskat Lieutnant Skat card game for KDE.
Lieutnant skat (from German Offiziersskat) is a card game for two players. It is roughly played according to the rules of Skat but with only two players and simplified rules.
Every player has a set of cards in front of him/her, half of them covered and half of them open. Both players try to win more than 60 of the 120 possible points. After 16 moves all cards are played and the game ends.

lsof List open files.
Lsof is a Unix-specific diagnostic tool. Its name stands for LiSt Open Files, and it does just that. It lists information about any files that are open by processes current running on the system. The binary should work on any kernel in 2.2 or 2.4
ltrace Tracks runtime library calls in dynamically linked programs
ltrace is a debugging program which runs a specified command until it exits. While the command is executing, ltrace intercepts and records the dynamic library calls which are called by the executed process and the signals received by that process. It can also intercept and print the system calls executed by the program.
The program to be traced need not be recompiled for this, so you can use it on binaries for which you don't have the source handy.
You should install ltrace if you need a sysadmin tool for tracking the execution of processes.
ltt Linux Trace Toolkit - tools
LTT is a kernel event tracer with low overhead.
LTT provides it's user with all the information required to reconstruct a system's behavior during a certain period of time. One can know exactly the dynamics of a system. Why do certain synchronization problems occur? What exactly happens to an application when a packet is received for it? Overall, where do all the applications that I use pass their time? Where are the I/O latencies in a given application? etc.
LTT requires a modified linux kernel that enables events to be logged. This package contains only the user-level tools for collecting and analysing the trace data. The kernel patch is available in the kernel-patch-ltt package.

Packages which may also enhance your gameplay are lxdoom-sndserv and lxmusserv, which are the sound server and music server packages, respectively.
lxmusserv Linux music server for Doom and Heretic
A number of Linux DOOM and Heretic ports use this server to play music, separate from the main game binary.
Install this if you want to hear music in these classic 3D shooters.
lxr Linux Cross-Reference
The Linux Cross-Reference project is the testbed application of a general hypertext cross-referencing tool. (Or the other way around.)
The main goal of the project is to create a versatile cross-referencing tool for relatively large code repositories. The project is based on stock web technology, so the codeview client may be chosen from the full range of available web browsers. On the server side, any Unix-based web server with cgi-script capability should do nicely.
The main feature of the indexer is of course the ability to jump easily to the declaration of any global identifier. Indeed, even all references to global identifiers are indexed. Quick access to function declarations, data (type) definitions and preprocessor macros makes code browsing just that tad more convenient. At-a-glance overview of e.g. which code areas that will be affected by changing a function or type definition should also come in useful during development and debugging.
lxtools Allows file management on HP100/200LX palmtops.

m4-doc Documentation for GNU m4.
This package contains the HTML documentation for GNU m4.
m4 a macro processing language
GNU `m4' is an implementation of the traditional UNIX macro processor. It is mostly SVR4 compatible, although it has some extensions (for example, handling more than 9 positional parameters to macros). `m4' also has builtin functions for including files, running shell commands, doing arithmetic, etc. Autoconf needs GNU `m4' for generating `configure' scripts, but not for running them.
m68k-vme-tftplilo Linux kernel TFTP boot loader for m68k VME processor boards.
Tftplilo is a highly configurable kernel and ramdisk network boot loader for BVM and Motorola m68k VME processor boards. It provides a mechanism for one or more diskless machines to interactively select a kernel boot configuration from a set of configurations defined in a single text configuration file that is transferred from the host tftp server. Each defined configuration specifies things such as Linux kernel and initial ramdisk file names which are then also transferred from the host tftp server.

If you like the game, please consider making a donation to the (upstream) author. Read /usr/share/doc/mah-jong/README.Debian for details.
mail-audit-tools Programs derived from the Mail::Audit package
Small programs designed to enhance the Mail::Audit package. These include proc2ma, to convert procmail rc files to mail filters using Mail::Audit, and popread, to act as a replacement for fetchmail.
mailagent An automatic mail-processing tool
Mailagent allows you to process your mail automatically. This has far more functionality than procmail, and is easier to configure (providing, of course, that you grok perl). As a mail processing tool, this slices, it dices, it ...
Given a set of lex-like rules, you are able to file mails to specific folders (plain Unix-style folders and also MMDF and MH ones), forward messages to a third person, pipe a message to a command or even post the message to a newsgroup.
It is also possible to process messages containing some commands.
You may also set up a vacation program, which will automatically answer your mail while you are not there, but more flexibly than the Unix command of the same name. You only need to supply a message to be sent and the frequency at which this will occur. Some simple macro substitutions allow you to re-use some parts of the mail header into your vacation message, for a more personalized reply.
You may also set up a generic mail server, without the hassle of the lower-level concerns like error recovery, logging or command parsing.
The mailagent is not usually invoked manually but is rather called via the filter program, which is in turn invoked by sendmail. That means you must have sendmail/smail on your system to use this. You also must have perl to run the mailagent scripts.
It is possible to extend the mailagent filtering commands by implementing them in perl and then having them automagically loaded when used.
Please note that on Debian systems, mailagent can not lock /var/spool/mail directory mailboxes, and thus one must put a catch all rule saving all mail in ones home directory. This is because Debian MDA policy requires them to be setgid mail, and making anything as extensible as mailagent setgid anything negates any benefit of having group permission protection.
mailcheck Check multiple mailboxes/maildirs for mail
Mailcheck is a simple, configurable tool that allows multiple mailboxes to be checked for the existence of new mail messages. It supports both mbox and maildir-style mailboxes, for compatibility with most mail transport agents. It also supports remote POP3 and IMAP mailboxes.
mailcrypt An Emacs interface to the GNU Privacy Guard.
Mailcrypt is an Emacs lisp package that provides a simple but powerful interface to cryptographic functions for mail and news. With Mailcrypt, encryption becomes a seamlessly integrated part of your mail and news handling environment. Mailcrypt can automatically fetch public keys to encode, decode, and verify messages, and can be configured to automate mailing through anonymous remailers.
Although Mailcrypt may be used to process data in arbitrary Emacs buffers, it is most useful in conjunction with other Emacs packages for handling mail and news. Mailcrypt has specialized support for Rmail, VM, MH-E, and Gnus.
Currently XEmacs ships with its own Mailcrypt, so this package should only be used with GNU/Emacs. (I.e., you don't need to install this package if your site uses only XEmacs.)
maildir-bulletin Deliver bulletins directly to the users' Maildir.
Deliver bulletins directly to the Maildir mail storage of users. Designed to be run from the /etc/aliases file with command-line parameters for which groups to send mail to.
maildrop mail delivery agent with filtering abilities
maildrop is a replacement for your local mail delivery agent. maildrop reads a mail message from standard input, then delivers the message to your mailbox. maildrop knows how to deliver mail to mbox-style mailboxes, and maildirs (a mail storing format introduced by Qmail).
maildrop can optionally read instructions from a file on how to filter incoming mail, and, based upon the instructions, deliver mail to alternate mailboxes, or forward it to somewhere else, like procmail. Unlike procmail, maildrop uses a structured filtering language that's a bit easier on the eyes.
mailfilter A program that filters your incoming e-mail to help remove spam.
Mailfilter is very flexible utility for UNIX (-like) operating systems to get rid of unwanted e-mail messages, before having to go through the trouble of downloading them to the local computer. It offers support for one or many POP3 accounts and is especially useful for dialup connections via modem, ISDN, etc. Install Mailfilter if you'd like to remove spam from your POP3 mail accounts.
With Mailfilter you can define your own filters (rules) to determine which e-mails should be delivered and which are considered waste. Rules are Regular Expressions, so you can make use of familiar options from other mail delivery programs such as e.g. procmail.
If you do not get your mail from a POP3-Server you don't need Mailfilter.
mailleds It show new mails with the keyboard-leds
The Program mailleds have set the SUID-Bit! Please check the source code!
mailleds is a quiet, unobtrusive way to signify that you have new mail: a user daemon to blink LEDs when there is new mail.
This package don't have /usr/bin/xmailleds, because this don't work.
mailman Powerful, web-based mailing list manager
The GNU Mailing List Manager, which manages email discussion lists much like Majordomo and Smartmail. Unlike most similar products, Mailman gives each mailing list a web page, and allows users to subscribe, unsubscribe, etc. over the web. Even the list manager can administer his or her list entirely from the web.
Mailman also integrates most things people want to do with mailing lists, including archiving, mail <-> news gateways, and so on. It has all of the features you expect from such a product, plus integrated support for the web (including web based archiving), automated bounce handling and integrated spam prevention.
For more information see http://www.list.org/.
mailreader Simple, but powerful WWW mail reader system
Mailreader is a light and simple web based mail user agent written in PERL. It has a very simple configuration and works quite well. Mailreader currently supports only POP3 servers. Now it support Japanese locale (libjcode-pm-perl needed - otherwise please ignore this suggestion).
Although mailreader's dependencies do not include a POP3 server, it does require an available POP3 server on the network for normal operation.
For secure connections (HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!) you need httpd with ssl support. (You can try apache-ssl).
mailscanner An email virus scanner and spam tagger.
MailScanner is a freely distributable E-Mail gateway virus scanner and spam detector. It uses sendmail or Exim as its basis, and a choice of 7 commercial virus scanning engines to do the actual virus scanning. It can decode and scan attachments intended solely for Microsoft Outlook users (MS-TNEF). If possible, it will disinfect infected documents and deliver them automatically. It also has features which protect it against Denial Of Service attacks.
Virus checking is disabled by default, spam checking is enabled by default. After installation, you can enable virus checking, write your own virus scanner or install one of the supported commercial anti-virus packages.
mailsync Synchronize IMAP mailboxes
Mailsync is a way of keeping a collection of mailboxes synchronized. The mailboxes may be on the local filesystem or on an IMAP server.

manedit A GTK+-based Enhanced ManPage Editor
ManEdit was created due to a lack of editors for UNIX manual pages, since users expect each UNIX program/configuration/api/etc to have a manual page the lack of an editor and the high demand for what it should create eventually lead to this (long overdue) application. Although most resourced developers can create a source document using a much more advanced editor and then export to multiple file formats, the average UNIX contributor isn't up to that. Even the creators of this application were intimidated at the UNIX manual page creation process.

megahal a conversation simulator that can learn as you talk to it
Conversation simulators are computer programs which give the appearance of conversing with a user in natural language. Such programs are effective because they exploit the fact that human beings tend to read much more meaning into what is said than is actually there; we are fooled into reading structure into chaos, and we interpret non-sequitur as valid conversation.
MegaHAL differs from conversation simulators such as Eliza in that it uses a Markov Model to learn how to hold a conversation. It is possible to teach MegaHAL to talk about new topics, and in different languages.

mime-codecs Fast Quoted-Printable and BASE64 MIME transport codecs
At its most basic MIME is a set of transfer encodings used to ensure error free transport, and a set of content types. VM understands the two standard MIME transport encodings, Quoted-Printable and BASE64, and will decode messages that use them as necessary. VM has Emacs-Lisp based Quoted-Printable and BASE64 encoders and decoders, but you can have VM use external programs to perform these tasks and the process will almost certainly be faster. This package provides external executables for Quoted-Printable and BASE64 encoders and decoders.
mime-construct construct/send MIME messages from the command line
mime-construct constructs and (by default) mails MIME messages. It is entirely driven from the command line, it is designed to be used by other programs, or people who act like programs.
mime-support MIME files 'mime.types' & 'mailcap', and support programs
As these files can be used by all MIME compliant programs, they have been moved into their own package that others can depend upon.
Other packages add themselves as viewers/editors/composers/etc by using the provided "update-mime" program.
In addition, the commands "see", "edit", "compose", and "print" will display, alter, create, and print (respectively) any file using a program determined from the entries in the mime.types and mailcap files.
mimedecode Decodes transfer encoded text type mime messages.
This program performs the decoding of transfer encoded text type mime messages. The message in its entirety is read from stdin. The decoded message is written to stdout; hence, this program behaves as a filter which may be placed wherever convenient.
It is assumed that the message has reached its point of final delivery and at that point 8-bit text types can be handled natively. Hence, the need for transfer-encodings is not present any more.
Only some cases are handled: - encoded header fields are decoded from QP or B encoding. - The charset is assumed to be iso-8859-1 - part or subparts of content-type text only are decoded - all other content-types are passed transparently.
mimefilter Strips some unwanted MIME parts out of a MIME message.
This program may be useful as a filter on a mailing list.
It strips every unwanted MIME part from a MIME compliant message, warning by email the original author about this, and outputs a MIME compliant cleaned message, to be further processed by a mailing list software.
You may find it useful if you don't want certain attachments on your mailing lists, or if you want to allow just the text part from multipart/alternative messages, and so on. You can easily fine tune the list of allowed MIME types to suit your particular needs, using normal Perl regexps.

mirror Keeps FTP archives up-to-date
Mirror uses the FTP protocol to locally duplicate remote host files and directories selected with Perl regular expressions. By default transfers only files missing locally or whose remote sizes or time-stamps have changed. Can reduce directory download using compressed listings in ls-lR.gz files or further using compressed differences of daily listings in ls-lR.patch.gz files. Amongst many flexible options it can gzip and split files. Tracks large distant FTP archives accurately with low download volume. Simpler programs like "mirrordir" use less memory and may copy directory trees faster between local machines.
From mirror.tar.gz 2.9 in Perl by Lee McLoughlin.
mirrordir duplicate a directory by making a minimal set of changes
mirrordir forces the mirror directory to be an exact replica of the control directory tree in every possible detail suitable for purposes of timed backup. Files whose modification times or sizes differ are copied. File permissions, ownerships, modification times, access times, and sticky bits are duplicated. Devices, pipes, and symbolic and hard links are duplicated. Files or directories that exist in the mirror directory that don't exist in the control directory are deleted. It naturally descends into subdirectories to all their depths. mirrordir tries to be as efficient as possible by making the minimal set of changes necessary to mirror the directory.

miscfiles Dictionaries and other interesting files.
These files are not crucial to system administration or operation, but which have come to be common on various systems over the years. They originated from various sources and are freely redistributable (see the copyright file for more information).
These files include those of general interest (English `connectives', Webster's Second International English wordlist, traditional stone and flower for each month, Precedence table for operators in the C language, description of the ISO Latin-1 character set, two-letter codes for languages, from ISO 639, International country telephone codes, geographic coordinates of many major cities, Some common abbreviations used in electronic communication, GNU tasks and mailing lists, country and currency abbreviations, rfc-index, etc.).
There also is information specific to the United States (List of three letter codes for some major airports, North American (+1) telephone area codes, postal codes for US and Mexican states and Canadian provinces, the Constitution of the United States of America, the Declaration of Independence of the Thirteen Colonies).
miscutils obsolete utilities package

Since fdutils is not required, it must be installed separately.
After this version miscutils is installed, it is safe and desirable to purge miscutils. If miscutils is purged while it still has conffiles, then important conffiles may be lost.
mixal A MIX emulator and MIXAL interpreter
Mixal is an implementation of the imaginary computer called MIX and its assembly language MIXAL, which were invented by Donald E. Knuth in the 1960's for use in his monumental and yet unfinished book series "The Art of Computer Programming". All actual programs and all programming exercises in the series are written in MIXAL.
This package contains a modified version of Darius Bacon's Mixal implementation. It takes a MIXAL source file, translates it to MIX machine code and then executes the resulting program, all in a single run. The result of the assembler step cannot be extracted to a file. Similarly, one cannot take a precompiled MIX program and try to execute it in this emulator - only MIXAL source is accepted.
The MIX emulator does not support floating-point operations nor the tape devices described in Knuth's book. This is not fatal, however, and most of the programs and exercise answers in Knuth's book can be run in this MIXAL implementation.
mixer.app Another mixer application designed for WindowMaker
There's nothing in the program that makes it *require* WindowMaker, except maybe the look. Mixer.app is a mixer utility for Linux systems. Requires /dev/mixer to work. Provides three customizable controls on a tiny 64x64 app.

Doublewidth characters for east Asian, combining characters for Thai, Vietnamese, and other diacritics, and BiDi (bi-direction) for Arab and Hebrew, and Arab shaping are supported. Though mlterm supports Indic complex languages such as Hindi, this Debian package is not compiled with Indic support.
Since mlterm checks the current locale and selects appropriate encoding, you don't need to configure mlterm to display your language and encoding.
mlterm also supports unique features such as scrollbar API, multiple windows, multiple XIM, anti-alias using FreeType and Xft, and so on.
mmake Makefile generator for Java programs
mmake will generate a master Makefile for your Java programs. This generated Makefile fully understands the subdirectories that are required if your program consists of multiple packages. mmake also automatically generates dependencies, and can use the C preprocessor for Java programs and generate javadoc documentation. mmake defaults to using Sun's javac from the jdk but can easily use guavac or a different GPL alternative as well.
mminstance Multiple master font utilities to create AFM or PFB files.
These tools let you use multiple-master fonts with programs that require single-master fonts (afm2tfm, ps2pk, fontinst, etc.). Both programs work fine with fonts that contain intermediate masters (e.g., Adobe Jenson MM and Adobe Kepler MM).
Mmafm creates an AFM (Adobe font metric) file corresponding to a single instance of a multiple-master font. It reads (and therefore requires) the AMFM and AFM files distributed with the font.
Mmpfb creates a normal, single-master font program that looks like an instance of a multiple-master font. It reads the multiple-master font program in PFA or PFB format.

mpatrol A powerful library for debugging memory allocations
The mpatrol library is a powerful debugging tool that attempts to diagnose run-time errors that are caused by the wrong use of dynamically allocated memory.
Along with providing a comprehensive and configurable log of all dynamic memory operations that occurred during the lifetime of a program, the mpatrol library performs extensive checking to detect any misuse of dynamically allocated memory.
All logging and tracing output from the mpatrol library is sent to a separate log file in order to keep its diagnostics separate from any that the program being tested might generate. A wide variety of library settings can also be changed at run-time via an environment variable, thus removing the need to recompile or relink in order to change the library's behaviour.
All of this functionality can be integrated into existing code through the inclusion of a single header file at compile-time.

In addition to monitoring via SNMP, MRTG can also generate graphs based on the output of any application, allowing one to generate graphs of anything that needs monitoring (for example, CPU and memory usage, email volumes, web hits, etc). For faster data collection, MRTG can also interface to RRDtool. For more information, see http://www.ee.ethz.ch/~oetiker/webtools/mrtg/.
The mrtg-contrib package contains the contributed scripts and configuration files that used to form part of the mrtg package.

musixlyr a MusiXTeX extension for handling lyrics
musixlyr is a set of TeX macros to be used with Taupin MusiXTeX (version T.52 or later) for typesetting vocal music. Its purpose is to compensate two drawbacks of MusiXTeX's lyrics handling:
* Typesetting lyrics with the "native" musixtex commands \zcharnote, \zsong etc. tends to be quite inefficient, particularly if the lyrics have to be changed or corrected. The idea underlying musixlyr is to separate lyrics coding from music coding and let TeX weave them together with as little manual interference as possible. As a result you can enter and edit lyrics (nearly) as easily as normal text.
* musixtex has no built-in mechanism for centering hyphens between syllables and for handling hyphenation at long melismas. This is implemented in musixlyr following the example of engraved music.

musixtex Typeset music scores with TeX
This package contains the MusiXTeX macros, musixflex, MusiXTeX User's Manual in LaTeX source and DVI formats, and example source MusiXTeX music score files.
MusiXTeX is a set of versatile and power TeX macros to typeset polyphonic, orchestral or choral music. It allows very fine control and produces professional printed music scores.
Due to the important amount of information to be provided to the typesetting process, coding MusiXTeX might appear to be awfully complicated, especially for beginners. Therefore, it is recommended to use MusiXTeX with some pre-processors, such as ABC2MTeX, PMX, M-Tx and GNU LilyPond, all available as Debian packages. Visit the GMD Music Archive at http://www.gmd.de/Misc/Music/ for more information.

nbd-client the Network Block Device client
This package contains the client process for the Network Block Device. The Network Block Device is a client/server protocol that emulates a block device (like a hard disk, a floppy, a CD-ROM, ...) over the network, thus giving the system the ability to swap over the network, or to use raw network diskspace for other purposes.
Note, however, that it is _not_ possible to access a single networked block device from different clients simultaneously; if you want that, you don't need the Network Block Device (which, basically, is a Disk Server protocol) but something else, like Sun's Network File System (NFS), or CODA.
nbd-server the Network Block Device server
This package contains the server process for the Network Block Device. The Network Block Device is a client/server protocol that emulates a block device (like a hard disk, a floppy, a CD-ROM, ...) over the network, thus giving the system the ability to swap over the network, or to use raw network diskspace for other purposes.

nco netCDF Operators
NCO is a suite of programs known as operators. Each operator is a standalone, command line program that is executed at the UNIX shell-level. The operators take one or more netCDF files as input, perform an operation (e.g., averaging or hyperslabbing), and produce a netCDF file as output. The operators are primarily designed to aid manipulation and analysis of data. This reflects their origin, but the operators are as general as netCDF itself.

newsflash Get news with the newnews command from a server
The Newsflash program retrieves news articles via NNTP from one server and delivers them to another. It requires at least read-only permissions on the remote server, and needs to have peer permissions on the local server. It works well with INN, but should also work with any other RFC977 compliant news software. Newsflash's highly parallel design is optimized for throughput, which makes quite a difference to INN's nntpget and the like.
newsgate Mail to News and News to Mail Gateway
This is a hodge-podge of tools to gate news. Nothing for beginners. Assembly required. Among others things this contains:
This kit provides two programs for "linking" RFC822 Mail messages and RFC1036 Usenet News articles. Each half of the conversion is handled by a different program, mail2news or news2mail. A few utility programs are also included.
With these programs and the right set of mail aliases and news sys and active file entries, it is possible to build any set of moderated, unmoderated, one-way, or bi-directional gateways between any set of news and mail groups and lists that your little heart desires.
newspost Usenet binary autoposter
Using newspost, it is a one command job to uuencode and post as many binary files as you like to your favorite newsgroup.
It supports all the features you'd expect from a binary autoposter, including authentication, posting to multiple newsgroups (crossposting), and all the rest. And of course you can save your settings as default so you don't have to type in your news server every time.
In addition, I added a couple cool things, like posting text prefixes, and autocreating and posting sfv files.
newsx An NNTP client for posting and fetching news
NewsX is an NNTP client for Unix. It will connect to a remote NNTP server and post outgoing articles batched by the news system, as well as fetch incoming articles.
It provides the NNTP capabilities required for small local news spools on installations with NNTP access only through limited ISP accounts. It works well via a dialup SLIP/PPP connection.
It seems to be faster than using suck over a modem link.

Use this package if you have a fairly recent kernel (2.2.13 or better) and you want to use the kernel-mode NFS server. The user-mode NFS server in the "nfs-server" package is slower but more featureful and easier to debug than the kernel-mode server.
Upstream: SourceForge project "nfs", CVS module nfs-utils.
nfs-user-server User space NFS server.
This package contains all necessary programs to make your Linux machine act as an NFS server, being an NFS daemon (rpc.nfsd), a mount daemon (rpc.mountd).
Unlike other NFS daemons, this NFS server runs entirely in user space. This makes it a tad slower than other NFS implementations, and also introduces some awkwardnesses in the semantics (for instance, moving a file to a different directory will render its file handle invalid).
nfsboot Allow clients to boot over the network.
This package help you to set up your host to allow clients to boot over nfs.
This package should be installed on the server so that the clients can connect to it. The package contains no server itself, but recommends all packages that you will need in order to make nfsrooted clients to work.
nfsbooted Prepares your image for nfs boot.
This package sets up your debian image to be booted from a nfs server. There are a couple of things that are needed to do this so that the different hosts do not conflict with each other.

nload A realtime network usage monitor.
Nload is a console application which monitors network traffic and bandwidth usage in real time. It displays the total amount of data that has been transfered over a network device since the last reboot, the current bandwidth usage, and the minimum, maximum, and average bandwidth usage measured since it started. If the user wants, it is also able to display two bars, similar to progress bars, presenting the current load graphically. Support for displaying several devices simultaneously is included.
nmap The Network Mapper
nmap is a utility for port scanning large networks, although it works fine for single hosts. The guiding philosophy for the creation of nmap was TMTOWTDI (There's More Than One Way To Do It). This is the Perl slogan, but it is equally applicable to scanners. Sometimes you need speed, other times you may need stealth. In some cases, bypassing firewalls may be required. Not to mention the fact that you may want to scan different protocols (UDP, TCP, ICMP, etc.). You just can't do all this with one scanning mode. And you don't want to have 10 different scanners around, all with different interfaces. Thus I incorporated virtually every scanning technique I know into nmap. Specifically, nmap supports:
Vanilla TCP connect() scanning, TCP SYN (half open) scanning, TCP FIN (stealth) scanning, TCP ftp proxy (bounce attack) scanning SYN/FIN scanning using IP fragments (bypasses packet filters), UDP recvfrom() scanning, UDP raw ICMP port unreachable scanning, ICMP scanning (ping-sweep), and Reverse-ident scanning.
nmap also supports a number of performance and reliability features such as dynamic delay time calculations, packet timeout and retransmission, parallel port scanning, detection of down hosts via parallel pings, and flexible target and port specification.
nmapfe The Network Mapper Front End
nmapfe provides an X Window System (GTK+) front end for nmap. Written by Zach Smith, nmapfe is now maintained by Fyodor.
nmh A set of electronic mail handling programs.
This is the nmh mail user agent (reader/sender), a command line based mail reader that is powerful and extensible. nmh is an excellent choice for people who receive and process a lot of mail.
Unlike most mail user agents, nmh is not a single program, rather it is a set of programs that are run from the shell. This allows the user to utilize the full power of the Unix shell in coordination with nmh. Various front-ends are available, such as mh-e (an emacs mode), xmh, and exmh (X11 clients).
nmh was originally based on MH version 6.8.3, and is intended to be a (mostly) compatible drop-in replacement for MH.
nms-cookielib library containing cookie manipulation subroutines

nn Heavy-duty USENET news reader (curses-based client)
The motto of nn is its expanded name, which is "No News is good news, but nn is better", and the nn newsreader is designed to let you minimize the amount of time you spend reading news (or, more realistically, to allow you to follow even more newsgroups :-).
Nn allows you to quickly select articles of interest and skip the rest. It also supports efficient article killing and selection of articles by author and subject.
This version of nn reads news from a news server via NNTP (the Network News Transfer Protocol), and can make use of your NNTP server's NOV database, if configured. You must have a news server available - large sites usually provide a site-wide server. (For those familiar with 'nn', this is a client-only version.)
nntp A NNTP server for use with C News.
This package enables the a C News server to exchange News over the Internet using the NNTP protocol. It allows remote reading over NNTP. The nntpd server is run from inetd saving resources.

It does for NNTP what wwwoffle does for HTTP.
noflushd allow idle hard disks to spin down
Noflushd is a daemon that spins down disks that have not been read from after a certain amount of time, and then prevents disk writes from spinning them back up. It's targeted for laptops but can be used on any computer with IDE disks. The effect is that the hard disk actually spins down, saving you battery power, and shutting off the loudest component of most computers.
nonlock Thai (and other) Keyboard swithcher using XKB
nonlock is a keyboard switcher using xkb, for Thai or other language user. It is designed for WindowMaker but can be used with other window manager. Under WindowMaker, it is a dockable application.

normalize is a tool for adjusting the volume of WAV files to a standard volume level. This is useful for things like creating mix CDs and mp3 databases, where different recording levels on different albums can cause the volume to vary greatly from song to song.
nosql3 a Relational Database Management System for Unix.
NoSQL is a fast, portable, relational database management system without arbitrary limits, (other than memory and processor speed) that runs under, and interacts with, the UNIX Operating System.
It uses the Operator/Stream DBMS paradigm described in "Unix Review", March, 1991, page 24, entitled "A 4GL Language". There are a number of "operators" that each perform a unique function on the data. The "stream" is supplied by the UNIX Input/Output redirection mechanism. Therefore each operator processes some data and then passes it along to the next operator via the UNIX pipe function. This is very efficient as UNIX pipes are implemented in memory. NoSQL is compliant with the "Relational Model".
*NOTE*: This is a new, re-designed, more performant upstream release which is no longer command-line compatible with NoSQL V2.
The commands are now in /usr/lib/nosql3 in order to not clutter up /usr/bin.
note small program managing notes from commandline
This is a small console program similar to knotes, which allows you to manage notes from commandline.
notifyme A program to notify the user when other one logs in
Notifyme is a GPL'ed Unix (tested under Linux, FreeBSD and OpenBSD) console utility that stays in a background (it isn't a daemon but it doesn't block terminal) and prints a message if a specified login and/or logout occurs. In a resource file ($HOME/notify.rc by default) you can specify (extended regular expressions are allowed) usernames, hostnames and terminals that should be monitored, optional messages that will be displayed and other options (beep, report logouts etc.) See notifyrc.sample for examples. It should be self explanatory.
nowebm A WEB-like literate-programming tool.
noweb is designed to meet the needs of literate programmers while remaining as simple as possible. Its primary advantages are simplicity, extensibility, and language-independence.
The noweb manual is only 3 pages; an additional page explains how to customize its LaTeX output. noweb works ``out of the box'' with any programming language, and supports TeX, latex, and HTML back ends.
The primary sacrifice relative to WEB is that code is not prettyprinted.
npadmin Query information from SNMP featured printer
This is a quite small utility to query information from a network printer which has to understand SNMP.
You can use this tool to query the features of a printer, get the pagecount or inquire the printer status e.g. how much paper is left in the printer. This might sound uninteresting but it is very nice for writing scripts to illustrate printer usage and stuff.

A program which can check your servers which are connected to the internet/intranet via TCP/IP. There is ping and port check. Ping is an ICMP echo port check is a simple connect() to the specified port.
nstreams network streams - a tcpdump output analyzer
Nstreams is a utility designed to identify the IP streams that are occuring on a network from a non-user friendly tcpdump output of several megabytes. This is especially useful when you plan to install a firewall but if you do not know the nstreams that the network users are generating (http, real audio, and more...).
Nstreams can read the tcpdump output directly from stdin, or from a file. It can even generate the configuration file of your firewall.
ntaim curses-based AIM client
nTAIM is a curses-based AOL Instant Messenger client which is quite featureful. It supports tab completion, custom color schemes, logging, buddy aliases, buddy pounce, and a number of other things.
nte shared text editor designed for use on the Mbone.
NTE is a shared text editor designed for use on the Mbone. It is not a word processor (it is not clear that word processing is a useful task to share) and it is not a whiteboard - if you want a whiteboard, wb from LBL is a much better whiteboard.
Using NTE can be very interactive - unless you lock a block of text, anyone else in your session can edit that text or delete it. This is intentional. Many people can (if they wish) edit the same document simultaneously. Many people can even edit the same block of text simultaneously, but if more than one person tries to edit the same line at one time, a conflict will occur, which results in only one of the changes being preserved.
ntfsdoc Documentation about NTFS partitions format.
This work is derived from the Linux-NTFS project (http://linux-ntfs.sf.net/), that aims to bring full support for the NTFS filesystem to the Linux operating system.
This is a set of documents about all the NTFS internals (all the publicly known internals) and the NTFS journal file format.
ntfstools Tools for doing neat things in NTFS partitions from Linux.
The Linux-NTFS project (http://linux-ntfs.sf.net/) aims to bring full support for the NTFS filesystem to the Linux operating system.
This is a set of tools targeted for people interested in working with the NTFS support in the Linux kernel and using it. The following utilities are included:
ntfsfix - Attempt to fix an NTFS partition that has been damaged by the Linux NTFS driver. You should run it every time after you have used the Linux NTFS driver to write to an NTFS partition to prevent massive data corruption from happening when Windows mounts the partition.
mkntfs - Format a partition with the NTFS filesystem.
ntop display network usage in top-like format
ntop is a Network Top program. It displays a summary of network usage by machines on your network in a format reminiscent of the unix top utility.

ntp-doc HTML documentation for the ntp and ntpdate packages
Documentation for xntp in HTML format plus some hints in ASCII.
ntp-refclock NTP v4 daemon for reference clocks.
This version of the ntp daemon includes drivers to interface to various radio clocks and other devices used for creating reference clocks.
If you do not have a radio clock, use the ntp-simple package instead, as it consumes far less memory!
If you're serious about building a high-quality stratum 1 timekeeper, please take a look at Ulrich Windl's PPSkit patchset for the Linux kernel, available from the kernel.org mirror network in pub/linux/daemons/ntp.
ntp-simple NTP v4 daemon for simple systems.
This version of the ntp daemon is sufficient for most systems.
If you wish to configure a reference clock, particularly if you have a radio clock, use the ntp-refclock package instead.
ntp Daemon and utilities for full NTP v4 timekeeping participation.
The Network Time Protocol allows for the synchronization of clocks on networked computers. The ntpd daemon implements NTP, allowing Unix systems to participate in this synchronization.
To minimize resource consumption in the general case, this package no longer includes the actual daemon. You will need either ntp-simple or ntp-refclock, depending on whether you want the drivers for radio clocks included in the refclock version of the daemon.
NTP was designed with attention to details which might introduce systematic bias into the computations, and the protocol is capable of synchronizing with even the most precise external time sources.
For more information on how NTP works, and how to configure a campus of ntpd daemons, load the optional Debian package 'ntp-doc'.
ntpdate The ntpdate client for setting system time from NTP servers.
The ntpdate client allows a system's clock to be set to match the time obtained by communicating with one or more servers running the NTP protocol.
The use of ntpdate is optional if you're running the ntp package, it can help a system obtain lock if it starts with a time that's pretty close by using ntpdate before starting the daemon.
The ntpdate client by itself is useful for occasionally setting the time on machines that are not on the net full-time, such as laptops.
nullidentd small, fast identd daemon
nullidentd is a small, fast and secure identd daemon. It returns a static string for every query.
nullmailer Simple relay-only mail transport agent
This is nullmailer, a sendmail/qmail/etc replacement MTA for hosts which relay to a fixed set of smart relays. It is designed to be simple to configure, secure, and easily extendable.
nut-cgi Network UPS Tools - web interface
This package contains CGI scripts that provide a nice web interface to a Network UPS Tools daemon. The scripts are packaged separately because there are situations where one may want to use Network UPS Tools but may not want a web interface to the daemon.
nut-doc Network UPS Tools - documentation
This package contains the upstream documentation for Network UPS Tools.
nut Network UPS Tools
This daemon can monitor a large assortment of UPS hardware and can provide notification to other computers via it's client/server architecture. One computer is configured to act as a master and the others are configured as slaves.
This package provides the best features of the other Debian UPS packages but is not based on any of them. Specifically, it is better because:
1) it has the ability to talk to a wide variety of hardware in both dumb and smart modes, similar to genpower; and
2) it has network capability in that it can act as a UPS server (master) for other UPS client boxes (slaves), similar to apcd.
Finally, the companion package, nut-cgi, provides cgi scripts that can display the status of UPS on a web page.

nvi 4.4BSD re-implementation of vi.
Vi is the original screen based text editor for Unix systems. It is considered the standard text editor, and is available on almost all Unix systems.
Nvi is intended as a "bug-for-bug compatible" clone of the original BSD vi editor. As such, it doesn't have a lot of snazzy features as do some of the other vi clones such as elvis and vim. However, if all you want is vi, this is the one to get.
nvtv tool to control the TV chips on NVidia cards under Linux
This is a program to control the TV chips on NVidia cards under Linux, in order to get tv-out with a wide range of resolutions and sizes, including "overscan" modes. It does even work with the free nv drivers.
nwall A version of wall that uses GNU readline
nwall is a system-local chat program based on BSD wall. It logs chat, as well as providing opt-out lockfiles for users who want to be alerted to system walls, but don't want to be distracted by the nwall chatter.
nwatch Network service detector.
NWatch is a sniffer but can be conceptualized as a "passive port scanner", in that it is only interested in IP traffic and it organizes results as a port scanner would.
The advantage of this tool is that services that is open for a short period of time can be detected with NWatch while successive nmap scans will miss them. The disadvantage is that the service have to be actively used to be detected.
nwrite Enhanced replacement for the write command.
Nwrite is a replacement for the standard write program that lets you write directly to the terminal of another logged-in user without the overhead of talk taking over the full screen or the other user having to respond first. Nwrite's advantages over traditional write include the ability to send the same message simultaneously to multiple users, and a receiver-configurable message format, including a tag at the start of each line that identifies the sender.
nxtvepg Nextview EPG decoder and browser
In this software package you find a decoder for Nextview - an Electronic TV Programme Guide for the analog domain (as opposed to the various digital EPGs that come with most digital broadcasts). It allows you to decode and browse TV programme listings for most of the major networks in Germany, Austria, France and Switzerland.
Currently Nextview EPG is transmitted by: - in Germany and Austria: Pro7, 3Sat, RTL-II. - in Switzerland: EuroNews, SF1, TSR1. - in France: Canal+, M6, TV5. - in Turkey: TRT (as of June/2001 still a test transmission)
The EPG information is read from /dev/vbi, i.e. you need some TV card which provides a VBI data stream. bttv cards work. zoran might work too, but I haven't tested that due to lack of hardware...
oaf The GNOME Object Activation Framework.
OAF is the new Object Activation Framework for GNOME. OAF has a similar purpose to gnorba, the GNOME 1.x CORBA activation library, and will replace it for GNOME 2.0.
It allows you to do much more powerful activation queries than gnorba. Each server is described by an XML file that defines its attributes. When querying or activating, one may specify complex requirements using the OAF query language.
objc-poc Objective-C compiler
Portable Object Compiler (objc-poc) is an Objective-C compiler.
Includes: - a modern, portable, "all C" Objective C runtime There's absolutely no assembly language needed, nor is there a dependency on stack layout, register allocation conventions etc. Most other runtimes, were derived from pre-"all C"-Stepstone runtimes, so this is an important point of difference. - "objpak", the "Object Pak" Objective C Collection Classes Simple, powerful set of classes. Very portable. Can be used to develop with different compilers, then port with 'objc'. Compatible with ICpak101, the collection class library described in Brad Cox' book, and used by existing Objective-C packages that were developed with Stepstone objc. - "cakit", the "Computer Algebra Kit" Objective C classes Small, concise, interface to a large set of classes for polynomial computing and arbitrary precision integer arithmetic.

Packages are collections of OCaml modules for which metainformation can be stored. The packages are kept in the filesystem hierarchy, but with strict directory structure. The library contains functions to look the directory up that stores a package, to query metainformation about a package, and to retrieve dependency information about multiple packages. There is also a tool that allows the user to enter queries on the command-line. In order to simplify compilation and linkage, there are new frontends of the various OCaml compilers that can directly deal with packages.

ocaml ML language implementation with a class-based object system
Objective Caml is an implementation of the ML language, based on the Caml Light dialect extended with a complete class-based object system and a powerful module system in the style of Standard ML.
Objective Caml comprises two compilers. One generates bytecode which is then interpreted by a C program. This compiler runs quickly, generates compact code with moderate memory requirements, and is portable to essentially any 32 or 64 bit Unix platform. Performance of generated programs is quite good for a bytecoded implementation: almost twice as fast as Caml Light 0.7. This compiler can be used either as a standalone, batch-oriented compiler that produces standalone programs, or as an interactive, toplevel-based system.
The other compiler generates high-performance native code for a number of processors. Compilation takes longer and generates bigger code, but the generated programs deliver excellent performance, while retaining the moderate memory requirements of the bytecode compiler. It is not available on all arches though.
ocamltk a library for interfacing Objective Caml with the tcl/tk

Furuse; it contains a "file selector" and "balloon help" support * the "jtk" library, written by Jun P. Furuse; it contains extensions for Japanese Tcl/Tk * the "tkanim" extension, written by Jun P. Furuse; it adds support for animated GIF files.
ocamlweb literate programming tool for Objective Caml
Literate programming, as defined by Knuth, means to combine program code and documentation into one source document from which program code and documentation can be extracted. The approach of ocamlweb is that documentation is to be included in the program code as special comments. The ocamlweb tool extracts from this the documented program code as LaTeX document, while no special preprocessing is required to compile the source files.

opt Options Parsing Tool shared library
opt is a subroutine library which facilitates the convenient input of parameters to a C program. Parameters are parsed from a command line, with further facilities for reading options from files, from environment strings, or from an interactive environment. The aim of the opt package is to permit programs to be both user- and programmer- friendly. The package attempts to on the one hand provide a direct and relatively full-featured input interface to the ultimate user of the program, and at the same time impose a minimal amount of work on the programmer to "attach" the package to his or her software. It is similar to GNU's (and AT&T's old) getopts package, but with a different interface that might be easier to use.
opustex Typeset music scores with TeX
This is OpusTeX beta-test Version 0.84 (February 1998). This package contains the OpusTeX macros, musixflex, OpusTeX User's Manual in LaTeX source and DVI formats, and example source OpusTeX music score files.
OpusTeX is a set of versatile and power TeX macros to typeset polyphonic, orchestral or choral music. It allows very fine control and produces professional printed music scores.
OpusTeX is still a beta-test Version and only dedicated for those, who want to work with and--more important--to work on.
Due to the important amount of information to be provided to the typesetting process, coding OpusTeX might appear to be awfully complicated, especially for beginners. Therefore, it is recommended to use OpusTeX with some pre-processors such as ABC2MTeX. Visit the GMD Music Archive at http://www.gmd.de/Misc/Music/ and check the MuTeX Mailing List Archive for more information.

otp Generator for One Time Passwords
otp creates key and password lists for verification and security purposes in a variety of formats. Keys can be of any length, consist of digits or letters (capital or lower case), and alphabetic passwords can either be entirely random (most secure) or obey the digraph statistics of English text (easier to remember when transcribing, but less secure).
For computer applications, for example one-time login passwords, otp can create a file containing the MD5 signature of each of the generated keys. This permits the computer to verify keys without the need to store the keys in plaintext.
outguess A universal steganographic tool
OutGuess is a universal steganographic tool that allows the insertion of hidden information into the redundant bits of data sources.

panorama A framework for 3D graphics production
Panorama will include modeling, rendering, post-processing, animating, etc. Functionally, it is structured as an API, composed by two dynamic libraries, and several plugins, that you can optionally load in runtime. A simple console mode front-end for this API is included in the package, that can load a scene description in one of the supported scene languages and then outputs a single image file in any of the supported graphic formats.
Its main features are:
- Plugin architecture. Most elements in the system are plugin's. This means components are loaded as needed, and can be substituted, added, etc without recompiling anything. This will let third parties distribute their plugins outside the main distribution.
- Object oriented scene description language, with classes, inheritance, etc. It's easy to use, and has a simple syntax.
- Scene language is a plugin itself, so any other scene language can be used instead.
- Several rendering methods are possible without any other change in input scene file. Currently supported methods are raytracing and zbuffer, but other methods are being tested and will be incorporated in the future.
- A postprocessing system lets you apply filters to the whole image after it has been generated by renderer.
- Similarly, there are object filters, that you can apply to an object in the rendering process. This means a new class of effects (e.g. a cartoon-like object in a photorealistic scene).
- Materials have a BSDF (Bidirectional Scattering Distribution Function) that encapsulates its properties with respect to the light. Now, only Lambertian and Phong BSDF's are implemented, but more sophisticated ones will follow, like Schlick's, Ward's, etc.

parted-bf The GNU Parted disk partition resizing program, small version
GNU Parted is a program that allows you to create, destroy, resize, move and copy hard disk partitions. This is useful for creating space for new operating systems, reorganising disk usage, and copying data to new hard disks.
This package is similar to the "big" parted package, but has less cosmetic features resulting in smaller binary. Intended to be used on boot floppies.
Parted currently supports DOS, Mac, Sun, BSD, GPT and PC98 disklabels/partition tables, as well as a 'loop' (raw disk) type which allows use on RAID/LVM. Filesystems supported are ext2, ext3, fat (FAT16 and FAT32) and linux-swap. Parted can also detect HFS (Mac OS), JFS, NTFS, ReiserFS, UFS and XFS filesystems, but cannot create/remove/resize/check these filesystems yet.
The nature of this software means that any bugs could cause massive data loss. While there are no known bugs at the moment, they could exist, so please back up all important files before running it, and do so at your own risk.

partimage Linux/UNIX utility to save partitions in a compressed image file
Partition Image is a Linux/UNIX partition imaging utility: it saves partitions in the Ext2FS (the linux standard), ReiserFS (a new journaled and powerful file system), NTFS (Windows NT File System) or FAT16/32 (DOS & Windows file systems) file system formats to an image file. Only used blocks are copied. The image file can be compressed in the GZIP/BZIP2 formats to save disk space, and split into multiple files to be copied onto removable media (ZIP for example), burned on a CD-R, etc.
This makes it possible to save a full Linux/Windows system with a single operation. In case of a problem (virus, crash, error, etc.), you just have to restore, and after several minutes, your entire system is restored (boot, files, etc.), and fully working.
This is very useful when installing the same software on many machines: just install one of them, create an image, and just restore the image on all other machines. Then, after the first one, each installation is automatic made, and requires only a few minutes.

It handles multi-volume archives and automatically determines the format of an archive while reading it. Three user interfaces are supported: tar, cpio, and pax. The pax interface was designed by IEEE 1003.2 as a compromise in the chronic controversy over which of tar or cpio is best.
This is the free OpenBSD's version written by Keith Muller.
pbuilder personal package builder for Debian packages
pbuilder constructs a chroot system, and builds a package inside the chroot. It is an ideal system to use to check that a package's build-dependencies are correct, and to be sure that unnecessary and wrong build dependencies will not exist in the resulting package. It uses apt extensively, and a local mirror, or a fast connection to a Debian mirror is ideal, but not necessary.
"pbuilder create" uses debootstrap to create a chroot image.
"pbuilder update" updates the image to the current state of testing/unstable/whatever
"pbuilder build" takes a *.dsc file and builds a binary in the chroot image.
pdebuild is a wrapper for Debian Developers, to allow running pbuilder just like "debuild", as a normal user.

pdksh A public domain version of the Korn shell
PD-ksh is a mostly complete AT&T ksh look-alike (see NOTES file for a list of things not supported). Work is currently underway to make it fully compatible with both POSIX and AT&T ksh (when the two don't conflict).
Since pdksh is free and compiles and runs on most common unix systems, it is very useful in creating a consistent user interface across multiple machines. For example, in the CS department of MUN, pdksh is installed on a variety of machines including Suns, HPs, DecStations, PCs running Linux, etc., and is the login shell of ~4500 users.
pdl The perl data language. Perl extensions for numerics.
PDL (``Perl Data Language'') gives standard perl the ability to COMPACTLY store and SPEEDILY manipulate the large N-dimensional data arrays which are the bread and butter of scientific computing. The idea is to turn perl in to a free, array-oriented, numerical language in the same sense as commercial packages like IDL and MatLab. One can write simple perl expressions to manipulate entire numerical arrays all at once. For example, using PDL the perl variable $a can hold a 1024x1024 floating point image, it only takes 4Mb of memory to store it and expressions like $a=sqrt($a)+2 would manipulate the whole image in a few seconds.
A simple interactive shell (perldl) is provided for command line use together with a module (PDL) for use in perl scripts. Web page: http://pdl.perl.org/

pdnsd Proxy DNS Server
pdnsd is a proxy dns server with permanent caching (the cache contents are written to hard disk on exit) that is designed to cope with unreachable or down dns servers (for example in dial-in networking). pdnsd can be used with applications that do dns lookups, eg on startup, and can't be configured to change that behaviour, to prevent the often minute-long hangs (or even crashes) that result from stalled dns queries. Some Netscape Navigator versions for Unix, for example, expose this behaviour.
And it's IPv6 capable.
pdq Simple printing system for workstations
Queueless printing system for workstation installations, which also supports sending print jobs to BSD lpr queues, over Appletalk (using netatalk) or TCP connections, and over fax transmissions via the efax utilities. It also includes a contributed interface for printing to Novell NetWare-based servers.
The maintainer of the Linux Printing HOWTO recommends using this system standalone, or as a front-end to LPRng.
Printing to non-Postscript printers usually requires using GNU or Aladdin Ghostscript.

pop-before-smtp watch log for pop/imap auth, notify Postfix to allow relay
Spam prevention requires preventing open relaying through email servers. However, legitimate users want to be able to relay. If legitimate users always stayed in one spot, they'd be easy to describe to the daemon. However, what with roving laptops, logins from home, etc., legitimate users refuse to stay in one spot.
pop-before-smtp watches the mail log, looking for successful pop/imap logins, and posts the originating IP address into a database which can be checked by Postfix, to allow relaying for people who have recently downloaded their email.
Contrary to other similar tools pop-before-smtp needs no hacking in the mail daemons. On the other hand it requires the pop3/imap daemons to run on the same machine as pop-before-smtp and postfix.
pop3browser Allows to check a pop3 mailbox before downloading any mail.
It is intended to delete unwanted (SPAM) mails before downloading via a low-bandwidth connection.
popa3d A tiny POP3 daemon, designed with security as the primary goal

Note: If you have no idea what a port/stealth scan is, I'd recommend to have a look at http://www.psionic.com/abacus/portsentry/ before installing this package. Otherwise you might easily block hosts you'd better not(e.g. your NFS-server, name-server, ...).
portslave Terminal server that does PPP and authenticates via RADIUS
This package provides a program named portslave which will use AT commands to answer a modem when it rings. It will then display a login: prompt at which the user can enter a user-name and password. If the user sends PPP data then portslave will run it's own pppd instead and authenticate the user via PAP. When the user-name and password are received they will be verified via a RADIUS server.
At the end of the call the accounting data will be written to the RADIUS server.

postgresql Object-relational SQL database, descended from POSTGRES.
PostgreSQL is an object-relational database, which supports a large part of SQL-92. It is under continuous development and each release implements more of the SQL standard, to the extent that it is now probably more compliant than many commercial databases. It also supports some object-oriented features.
As compared to MySQL, PostgreSQL is more fully featured - most importantly, PostgreSQL supports transactions on all tables, something which is essential to multi-user update of a database and referential integrity, which, equally, is essential to a reliable database. The trade-off is that it can be slower, though again, each release sees improvements in efficiency. For more information, see <http://OpenACS.org/why-not-mysql.html>.
This package provides the backend features; you need postgresql-client or some other front-end to be able to access them. A package providing ident-server is needed if you want to authenticate remote connections with identd.

propsel Propagate X selections between displays
propsel is useful to people who work with more than a single X11 display on their desk. It allows one to paste into a xterm on one display the contents of the selection of another display. For example, it's useful for situations where you have a URL on one display, and want to access it with a browser running on another display. You can select the URL, click "propagate", move over to the other display, and then paste into the browser.
If you have the two displays on the same desk, you might be more interested in the package x2x. However, x2x can only link two displays at once, whereas propsel can propagate selections between up to 8 displays.

It also provides a tool named defoma-psfont-installer, which registers PostScript fonts installed in a PostScript printer. This tool benefits those who want to print a PostScript file with the printer fonts and have the printer fonts appear in the font-choosing menu.
psgml An Emacs major mode for editing SGML documents.
PSGML is a major mode for editing SGML documents. It contains a simple SGML parser and can work with any DTD. (The most popular nowadays are the HTML DTDs. This package turns your emacs into the one of most powerful HTML editors and will be ultimately flexible as well, since you could upgrade your editor by just installing new DTDs). Functions provided includes menus and commands for inserting tags with only the contextually valid tags, identification of structural errors, editing of attribute values in a separate window with information about types and defaults, and structure based editing.
Since psgml parses the DTD to allow you to edit SGML documents, you do need to have the DTDs installed in order to use psgml. Since psgml installs itself as an HTML mode in Emacs, it depends on sgml-data. Some other packages which also provide SGML DTDs are suggested, like debiandoc-sgml and linuxdoc-sgml.
SGML, a language for encoding the structure of a document, is an ISO standard: ISO 8879:1986 "Information processing - Text and office systems - Standard Generalized Markup Language (SGML)".
Psgml is a standard package for XEmacs, and thus this package does not install itself for XEmacsen.
psh interactive shell with the power of perl
The Perl Shell is a shell that combines the interactive nature of a Unix shell with the power of Perl. The goal is to eventually have a full featured shell that behaves as expected for normal shell activity. But, the Perl Shell will use Perl syntax and functionality for control- flow statements and other things.

python-extclass Improves integration between Python and C++ classes
A lightweight mechanism, named "ExtensionClass", http://www.digicool.com/releases/ExtensionClass/ExtensionClass-1.0.2.tar.gz, has been developed for making Python extension types more class-like. Classes can be developed in an extension language, such as C or C++, and these classes can be treated like other python classes:
- They can be sub-classed in python, - They provide access to method documentation strings, and - They can be used to directly create new instances.
An example class shows how extension classes are implemented and how they differ from extension types.
Extension classes provide additional extensions to class and instance semantics, including:
- A protocol for accessing subobjects "in the context of" their containers. This is used to implement custom method types and environmental acquisition. - A protocol for overriding method call semantics. This is used to implement "synchronized" classes and could be used to implement argument type checking. - A protocol for class initialization that supports execution of a special '__class_init__' method after a class has been initialized.
Extension classes illustrate how the Python class mechanism can be extended and may provide a basis for improved or specialized class models.

python-xmlrpc Implementation of the XML-RPC protocol for Python
This XML-RPC client and server implementation is written in C and wrapped up in python. It's features are:
- Efficiency: This library seems to be 20x-100x faster than other xmlrpc libraries. It has been benchmarked at about 1000 RPC calls per second between two different celeron 466 machines. Both speed and memory use seem to be exponentially better (related to the size of objects being sent across) than the existing Python libraries.
- Non-Blocking IO: This becomes important when you have critical applications (especially servers) that CANNOT be held up because a client is trickling a request in or is reading a response at 1 byte per second.
- Event based: This goes hand in hand with non-blocking IO. It lets you use an event based model for your client/server application, where the main body is basically the select loop on the file descriptors you are interested in. The work is done by registering callbacks for different events you received on file descriptors. This can be very nice. There is some work to be done here, but all the hooks are in place. See TO DO for a list of the features that have yet to be incorporated.
- Portable: Source should be compatible on both windows and POSIX
This package is normally known by the name py-xmlrpc, but has been renamed for Debian policy compliance.

raccess Security Tool to audit remote systems
Remote Access Session is a security tool to analyze the integrity of systems. The program tries to gain access to a system using the most advanced techniques of remote intrusion. It lets to work on normal mode (fast) and hard mode (more intensive). There is a big difference between "Remote Access Session" and other remote security audit tools: If "Remote Access Session" find a remote vulnerability that gives user account or root, it will try to exploit it and it will return a shell in order to discard false positives.
It is actually under development and it just has a few features of the future final version: *Advanced scanning capabilities. This tool doesn't block against firewall and it's fast. *Total service's banner info added: Includes web server detection version and named version, and the classical too (ftp, pop ...) *Writes reports with info of the host analyzed to the hard disk. *Remote OS detect feature with QueSO. *If detects any vulnerability, the tool chooses the right exploits based on version, vendor and OS of the services that run on the remote host and ask you on a interactive way if you want to run these exploits in order to check the real danger the remote host can receive and discard false positives. Includes 69 remote exploits for various OS and services.

radiusclient1 /bin/login replacement which uses the RADIUS protocol for authentication.
Radiusclient is a /bin/login replacement which gets called by a getty to log in a user and to setup the user's login environment. Normal login programs just check the login name and password which the user entered against the local password file (/etc/passwd, /etc/shadow). In contrast to that Radiusclient also uses the RADIUS protocol to authenticate the user.
This is the main binary archive.
radiuscontext Radius log parser and report generator.
Parses radius detail logfiles and generates pretty reports in plaintext, html, or csv.
radiusd-cistron Radius server written by Cistron.
RADIUS is a means of managing clients' access to network services, and is described by RFCs 2865 to 2869.
This GPLed Radius server is not based on any Livingston code. It is compatible with the Livingston-2.01 server though. Over radius-2.01, it has support for Exec-Program on authentication, it is possible to limit the number of concurrent logins reliably, it has tagged attribute support, it can replicate accounting packets, and more.

RADIUS is a means of managing clients' access to network services, and is described by RFCs 2865 to 2869.
radvd Router Advertisement Daemon
IPv6 has a lot more support for autoconfiguration than IPv4. But for this autoconfiguration to work on the hosts of a network, the routers of the local network have to run a program which answers the autoconfiguration requests of the hosts.
On Linux this program is called radvd, which stands for Router ADVertisement Daemon. This daemon listens to router solicitations (RS) and answers with router advertisement (RA). Furthermore unsolicited RAs are also sent from time to time.
raidtools2 Utilities to support 'new-style' RAID disks
The Multiple Device driver's main goal is to group several disks or partitions together, making them look like a single block device. This includes linear adding of disks, RAID-0, -1, -4 and -5.
'New-style' RAID arrays have a lot features not present in the 'older' RAID arrays, including autodetection. Old arrays can be upgraded with this package, and it is mostly a good idea to use this package when creating new RAID arrays.
In order to use this package, you must have a kernel with 'new-style' RAID drivers, which are included in stock kernels since the 2.4 series. For older kernels, you can find patches at http://people.redhat.com/mingo/raid-patches/.
raidtools Utilities to support 'old-style' RAID disks
The Multiple Device driver's main goal is to group several disks or partitions together, making them look like a single block device. This includes linear adding of disks, RAID-0, RAID-4 and -5.
If you are creating new RAID arrays, the raidtools2 package and newer RAID drivers may be a better choice.
This package may only installed on systems with a kernel version higher than 2.1.62. With kernels from the 2.4 series or newer, or with 2.2 kernels with the 'new-style' RAID-patches, you should use raidtools2 instead.
rain packet builder for testing IP protocols implementations.
rain is a powerful packet builder for testing stability of hardware and software utilizing IP protocols. It offers its users the capability of fully customizing their own packets with a wide variety of command line options.
randtype semi-random text typer
Randtype is a small utility to output characters or lines at random intervals. There are a few command line options to refine the output. With it you can output files to the screen, and if you configured it well, it will look like someone is actually typing - with optional typos even.
rarpd Reverse Address Resolution Protocol daemon
RARP is a protocol which allows individual devices on an IP network to get their own IP addresses from the RARP server. You need this daemon only if you have on your LAN machines like diskless Sun boxes. With kernels up to 2.2 you have the option of using the integrated RARP support instead of this daemon.
ras Adds redundancy files to archives for data recovery.
Ras is a program that adds m extra files to a set of n files, such that the contents of the n original files can be regenerated from any n of the n+m original files and extra files. Normally, these extra files will all be 6 bytes larger then the largest of the original files, but ras has a mode in which the extra files are exactly the same size as the original files.
Ras was originally intended for transporting a large file split over several floppy disks in a manner resilient to the corruption of a few of the disks, and a pair of example shell scripts to do this (rassplit and rasmerge) is included in the distribution.
rasmol molecule visualization and rendering
RasMol is a molecular graphics program intended for the visualisation of proteins, nucleic acids and small molecules. The program is aimed at display, teaching and generation of publication quality images.

rat Unicast and multicast voice-over-IP application
RAT is a network audio tool that allows users to participate in audio conferences over the Internet. These can be between two participants directly, or between a group of participants on a common multicast group. No special features are required to use RAT in point-to-point mode, but to use the multicast conferencing facilities of RAT, a connection to the Mbone, or a similar multicast capable network, is required. RAT is based on IETF standards, using RTP above UDP/IP as its transport protocol, and conforming to the RTP profile for audio and video conferences with minimal control.
Further information is available on the WWW, at: http://www-mice.cs.ucl.ac.uk/multimedia/software/rat/index.html
ratfor Rational Fortran preprocessor for Fortran 77.
Ratfor77 is a preprocessor that converts the Rational Fortran dialect into ordinary Fortran 77. The output can then be compiled using g77 or f2c + gcc.
The Ratfor dialect provides C-like control structures and some syntactic sugar that makes Fortran programs easier to read and write.
ratmenu Creates X menus from the shell.
This is ratmenu, a simple program that allows you to create X menus from the shell. It is a simplified version of 9menu, with the crucial difference that where 9menu only responds to the mouse, and ignores the keyboard, ratmenu has all mouse sensitivity taken out, and only responds to the keyboard. It is meant to be used with the ratpoison window manager. Although it should work with other window managers, YMMV.
ratpoison Simple window manager with no fat library dependencies.
ratpoison is a simple Window Manager with no fat library dependencies, no fancy graphics, no window decorations, and no flashy wank. It is largely modelled after GNU Screen which has done wonders in virtual terminal market.
All interaction with the window manager is done through keystrokes. ratpoison has a prefix map to minimize the key clobbering that cripples EMACS and other quality pieces of software.
rats Rough Auditing Tool for Security
RATS, the Rough Auditing Tool for Security, is a security auditing utility for C, C++, php, perl, and python code. RATS scans source code, finding potentially dangerous function calls. The goal of rats is not to definitively find bugs (yet), but to provide a reasonable starting point for performing manual security audits.
The initial vulnerability database is taken directly from things that could be easily found when starting with the book, "Building Secure Software" by Viega and McGraw.
rawrec Buffered raw audio recorder/player
The rawrec/rawplay utilities provide a simple way to record or play back raw audio data. Options exist to control the timing of the run, add silent guard time, jump into data files, set DSP parameters, and control buffer size and latency. rawrec should be particularly useful for scripting applications that need to deal with raw audio data.
Compared to bplay, rawrec tries to do less (it only handles raw audio) and does it more correctly (all the options work right for raw audio. I think :).
rawrec can work to or from standard io, so if you also get the sox program, you will be able to record and play a wide variety of sound formats. You will need a mixer program, such as aumix.
razor spam-catcher using a collaborative filtering network
Vipul's Razor is a distributed, collaborative, spam detection and filtering network. Razor establishes a distributed and constantly updating catalogue of spam in propagation. This catalogue is used by clients to filter out known spam. On receiving a spam, a Razor Reporting Agent (run by an end-user or a troll box) calculates and submits a 20-character unique identification of the spam (a SHA Digest) to its closest Razor Catalogue Server. The Catalogue Server echos this signature to other trusted servers after storing it in its database. Prior to manual processing or transport-level reception, Razor Filtering Agents (end-users and MTAs) check their incoming mail against a Catalogue Server and filter out or deny transport in case of a signature match. Catalogued spam, once identified and reported by a Reporting Agent, can be blocked out by the rest of the Filtering Agents on the network.
rblcheck Tool to Query RBL Servers
This program is a very basic interface to DNS listings such as the RBL filter developed by Paul Vixie and the MAPS project. The basic idea of the filter is that when someone is blacklisted for email abuse of some sort, a new domain name is resolved of the form "2.0.0.127.domain.name.com", where 2.0.0.127 is the abusive IP address in reverse (for example, 2.0.0.127 would be the IP address 127.0.0.2), and "domain.name.com" is the base domain name of the filtering service (such as "blackholes.mail-abuse.org" for the MAPS project RBL filter).
rbootd Remote Boot Daemon
The rbootd daemon is used for booting some HP workstations over the network (such as the 9000/300 and 9000/400 series). It can also boot PA RISC workstations. It handles the first stage of the boot sequence and can be used to start booting Linux, NetBSD or HPUX.
rc An implementation of the AT&T Plan 9 shell.
rc is a command interpreter and programming language similar to sh(1). It is based on the AT&T Plan 9 shell of the same name. The shell offers a C-like syntax (much more so than the C shell), and a powerful mechanism for manipulating variables. It is reasonably small and reasonably fast, especially when compared to contemporary shells. Its use is intended to be interactive, but the language lends itself well to scripts.
rcalc A symbolic calculator for the GNOME desktop.
rCalc is a scientific calculator for the GNOME desktop environment. It aims to occupy the middle ground between simple `point-and-click' calculators and full featured mathematical packages, and hopefully take some of the best of both worlds.
rcconf Debian Runlevel configuration tool
This tool configures system services in connection with system runlevels. It turns on/off services using the scripts in /etc/init.d/. Rcconf works with both System-V style and file-rc runlevel configuration. It is a TUI frontend to the update-rc.d command.
rccp Console frontend to DCTC - Direct Connect (peer-based file-sharing)
RCCP (Red Connect Console Program) is text front-end for the dctc program. Dctc handles all communication with dchubs and clients.
RCCP is designed to allow both scripting and command line interaction. Besides supporting all the basic Direct Connect commands such as downloading, searching, uploading, resuming, multihub search etc RCCP can be scripted.
Selected scripts from many included with the package: * multi hub spider search * last seen user script (ala irc !seen script) * list all files from all users * download bot - watches query results and downloads all of them * segmented downloading * ... plus many more ...
Direct Connect protocol is intended for peer-based file-sharing. In practise it works better than gnutella and other similar systems as it allows dc hubs (servers) administators to require clients to share specified amount of data. The amount is usually based on type of client's connection and it is used not to hurt or exclude anybody but to make file sharing "fair play".
rcs-latex LaTeX macro package for handling RCS keywords
This allows the user to typeset RCS keywords in their document without being concerned about dollar signs and the like.
rcs The GNU Revision Control System
The Revision Control System (RCS) manages multiple revisions of files. RCS automates the storing, retrieval, logging, identification, and merging of revisions. RCS is useful for text that is revised frequently, for example programs, documentation, graphics, papers, and form letters.
rdate Set the system's date from a remote host.
Rdate displays and sets the local date and time from the host name or address given as the argument. It uses the RFC868 protocol which is usually implemented as a built-in service of inetd(1).
rdesktop RDP client for Windows NT/2000 Terminal Server
rdesktop is an open source client for Windows NT/2000 Terminal Server, capable of natively speaking its Remote Desktop Protocol (RDP) in order to present the user's NT/2000 desktop. Unlike Citrix ICA, no server extensions are required.
rdiff-backup Backup program to use deltas for history
rdiff-backup is a script that backs up one directory to another. The target directory ends up a copy of the source directory, but extra reverse diffs are stored in a special subdirectory of that target directory, so you can still recover files lost some time ago. The idea is to combine the best features of a mirror and an incremental backup. rdiff-backup also preserves subdirectories, symlinks, special files, permissions, uid/gid ownership (if it is running as root), and modification times. Finally, rdiff-backup can operate in a bandwidth efficient manner over a pipe, like rsync. Thus you can use rdiff-backup and ssh to securely back a hard drive up to a remote location, and only the differences will be transmitted.
rdiff Binary diff tool for signature-based differences
rdiff is a little like diff and patch all rolled into one, with support for binary files. rdiff is a tool to do this.
rdist Remote file distribution client and server.
Rdist is a program to maintain identical copies of files over multiple hosts. It preserves the owner, group, mode, and mtime of files if possible and can update programs that are executing.

Robot programs can be written in any language, all communication with the main program is done via stdout/stdin.
recite English text speech synthesizer
Recite is a program to do speech synthesis. The quality of sound produced is not terribly good, but it should be adequate for reporting the occasional error message verbally.
Given some English text, recite will convert it to a series of phonemes, then convert the phonemes to a sequence of vocal tract parameters, and then synthesise the sound a vocal tract would make to say the sentence. Recite can perform a subset of these operations, so it can be used to convert text into phonemes, or to produce an utterance based on vocal tract parameters computed by some other program.
recode-doc Documentation for Free recode.
This package contains the HTML documentation for Free recode.
recode Character set conversion utility.
Free `recode' converts files between character sets and usages. When exact transliterations are not possible, it may get rid of the offending characters or fall back on approximations. This program recognizes or produces nearly 150 different character sets and is able to transliterate files between almost any pair. Most RFC 1345 character sets are supported.
records-common Save and index notes in Emacs environment
Records-mode is a major mode for editing and indexing notes. Notes are per-day files containing one or more subjects, subjects from different days are indexed and can be traversed, etc.
records-gnuemacs Save and index notes in Emacs environment

recover Undelete files on ext2 partitions
Recover automates some steps as described in the ext2-undeletion howto. This means it seeks all the deleted inodes on your hard drive with debugfs. When all the inodes are indexed, recover asks you some questions about the deleted file. These questions are: * Hard disk device name * Year of deletion * Month of deletion * Weekday of deletion * First/Last possible day of month * Min/Max possible file size * Min/Max possible deletion hour * Min/Max possible deletion minute * User ID of the deleted file * A text string the file included (can be ignored)
If recover found any fitting inodes, it asks to give a directory name and dumps the inodes into the directory. Finally it asks you if you want to filter the inodes again (in case you typed some wrong answers).
redir Redirect TCP connections
It can run under inetd or stand alone (in which case it handles multiple connections). Its 8 bit clean, not limited to line mode, is small and light. Supports FTP redirects and supports transparency support.
redir is all you need to redirect traffic across firewalls authenticate based on an IP address etc etc. No need for the firewall toolkit. The functionality of inetd/tcpd and "redir" will allow you to do everything you need without screwy telnet/ftp etc gateways. (I assume you are running IP Masquerading of course.)
regexplorer A visual regular expression explorer

This package allows SMTP relaying for any host that authenticates with POP3.
remembrance-agent Emacs mode to help find relevant texts
The Remembrance Agent is one of the projects being developed by the MIT Media Lab's software agents group. Given a collection of the user's accumulated email, usenet news articles, papers, saved HTML files and other text notes, it attempts to find those documents which are most relevant to the user's current context. That is, it searches this collection of text for the documents which bear the highest word-for-word similarity to the text the user is currently editing, in the hope that they will also bear high conceptual similarity and thus be useful to the user's current work. These suggestions are continuously displayed in a small buffer at the bottom of the user's emacs buffer. If a suggestion looks useful, the full text can be retrieved with a single command.
remind a sophisticated reminder service

renattach Rename attachments on the fly.
Renattach is a small, efficient and surprisingly effective filter designed primarily to offer an additional level of safety to Windows users whose e-mails pass through a UNIX-like mail server. Many modern viruses are spread through e-mail, and renattach combats such viruses by filtering e-mail attachments based on file extension. In version 1.1.1, the MIME type is also renamed. The idea is to rename potentially dangerous attachments (executable ones) so that the user, or the user's poorly written e-mail software, does not accidentally execute the attachment.

revtex4 Documentclass for the journals of the American Physical Society
LaTeX 2e document class distributed by the American Physical Society (APS) in order to expedite the handling of manuscripts by the APS journals (Physical Review Letters, Physical Review, and Reviews of Modern Physics) while reducing costs and avoiding unnecessary duplication of effort. A manuscript prepared using the REVTeX 4 documentclass and following the guidelines presented in the enclosed documentation is considered by APS as a "compuscript." Compuscripts face lower publication charges as compared to non-compuscript manuscripts and supposedly get published faster.
revtex LaTeX documentstyle from the American Physical Society (obsolete)
REVTeX is an electronic publishing product of the American Physical Society. It is a set of LaTeX-based tags that can be used to prepare a physics manuscript for submission. If REVTeX tags are used consistently throughout a manuscript and published guidelines are followed exactly, it is hoped that the TeX manuscript file (called a compuscript) can be used by APS, OSA, AIP, and other participating member societies in production of author proofs. This package is now obsolete, revtex4 should be used instead. This package is kept in order to provide backward compatibility (for older documents prepared with REVTeX 3.1 rather than REVTeX 4).

For classes and modules, it shows a synopsis along with a list of the methods the class or module implements. All information is taken from the reference section of the book Programming Ruby.
rig Random identity generator
RIG (Random Identity Generator) is a free replacement for a shareware program out there called 'fake'. It generates random, yet real-looking, personal data. It is useful if you need to feed a name to a Web site, BBS, or real person, and are too lazy to think of one yourself. Also, if the Web site/BBS/person you are giving the information to tries to crosscheck the city, state, zip, or area code, it will check out.
rinetd Internet redirection server
rinetd redirects TCP connections from one IP address and port to another. rinetd is a single-process server which handles any number of connections to the address/port pairs specified in the file /etc/rinetd.conf. Since rinetd runs as a single process using nonblocking I/O, it is able to redirect a large number of connections without a severe impact on the machine. This makes it practical to run services on machines inside an IP masquerading firewall.
rio500 Diamond Rio500 digital audio player support
A set of command-line utilities which provide support for the Diamond Rio500 digital audio player.
You'll need a kernel with USB support enabled in order to make use of these utilities... 2.4.0 and later should be fine, as should 2.2.18 or later in the 2.2 series. In addition, the Rio500 driver must be enabled.

For more info see: http://polyglotman.sourceforge.net
robodoc A program documentation tool.
The idea is to include for every function or procedure a standard header containing all sorts of information about the procedure or function. ROBODoc extracts these headers from the source file and puts them in a separate autodocs-file. ROBODoc thus allows you to include the program documentation in the source code and avoid having to maintain two separate documents. Or as Petteri puts it: "robodoc is very useful - especially for programmers who don't like writing documents with Word or some other strange tool."
ROBODoc can format the headers in a number of different formats: HTML, ASCII, AmigaGuide, LaTeX, or RTF. In HTML mode it can generate cross links between headers. You can even include parts of your source code.
ROBODoc works with many programming languages: For instance C, Pascal, Shell Scripts, Assembler, COBOL, Occam, Postscript, Forth, Tcl/Tk, C++, Java -- basically any program in which you can use remarks/comments.
robotfindskitten Zen Simulation of robot finding kitten
In this simulation, you play the part of robot. Your task is to complete the simulation by finding kitten, as is your destiny, and indeed your wont. You (robot) are represented by the # character, and you move around with the arrow keys touching things. If the thing you touch is kitten, you get a cute little animation (which was cuter in the DOS version) and the simulation ends. Otherwise, you get a brief description of what it is you touched.

rocks-n-diamonds Boulderdash-like game
This game should be instantly familiar to those who have tried "Boulderdash" on the C-64, or "Emerald Mine" on the Amiga.
For the rest of you, it is a game in which you basically collect emeralds, stay away from monsters and try to avoid being squished by rocks. This version includes sound and supports joysticks, but your keyboard can also be used.
It is even possible to design your own levels with the built-in editor, and to record your game, replay it, and save it!
rocks Make network sockets reliable in a transparent way
Rocks protect sockets-based applications from network failures, particularly failures common to mobile computing, including:
- Link failures (e.g., unexpected modem disconnection); - IP address changes (e.g., laptop movement, DHCP lease expiry); - Extended periods of disconnection (e.g., laptop suspension).
Rock-enabled programs continue to run after any of these events; their broken connections recover automatically, without loss of in-flight data, when connectivity returns. Rocks work transparently with most applications, including SSH clients, X window applications, and network service daemons.
roleplaying A database system for role players

routed Network routing daemon.
Routed is invoked at boot time to manage the network routing tables. The routing daemon uses a variant of the Xerox NS Routing Information Protocol in maintaining up to date kernel routing table entries. It used a generalized protocol capable of use with multiple address types, but is currently used only for Internet routing within a cluster of networks.
routeplanner-gnome A highway trip planner (GNOME interface)
This is a highway trip planning program, similar to programs like Rand McNally's "TripMaker." It allows you to plan road trips between two or more locations, using various interchangeable map files (or databases).
Currently, the program includes two databases covering North America; one is fairly simplistic, and one is quite detailed. You can also create new databases with the included editor.
For retrocomputing nuts, this program traces its lineage back to a 1980s program called "RoadRoute" written by Jim Butterfield for the Amiga. AFAIK all of the code has been rewritten, but the Basic-USA database included here is Jim's original dataset.
This package includes the GNOME interface and the database editor (which also requires GNOME).

This is the official version of the new 'Roxen WebServer' (the new name of the webserver). This is still a beta release and the old configuration files of the server is not fully compatible with this version. There will be a conversion script in a later version, but until then I'm installing in .../roxen2/ without any automatic config transference. You will have to configure the server manually... You can still have both the stable (1.3) version, since they don't clash (at least not filesystem wise), but make sure they don't try to talk/listen on the same ports!

rpncalc a RPN calculator trying to emulate an HP28S
rpncalc is a calculator similar to dc(1), but it uses the readline library and shows the stack visually.
rproxy A cache which uses differences to speed up retrievals
rproxy stores hashed values of retrieved pages and when you next access the same page it computes the difference between the current page and the recently stored page.
The rproxy extensions to HTTP allow the server to generate a hsync relative to the cached instance in a way that is completely general, and transparent to both the server and user agent.
rproxy, and clients and servers which implement hsync, calculate a block-by-block signature of the file, by computing a checksum over consecutive extents of equal length, such as 1024 bytes. This checksum is then added into a header of the request and transmited as usual.
To be useful, there should be at least two rproxy instances between the client and the server. Transfers between the proxies will be delta-encoded, while the browser and server will just see standard HTTP. For example, it is very useful to run on instance on each side of a modem link, so that data across the slow link will be delta-encoded. Further information is available at http://linuxcare.com.au/rproxy/
rrdtool-tcl Time-series data storage and display system (tcl)
RRD is the Acronym for Round Robin Database. RRD is a system to store and display time-series data (i.e. network bandwidth, machine-room temperature, server load average). It stores the data in a very compact way that will not expand over time, and it presents useful graphs by processing the data to enforce a certain data density. It can be used either via simple wrapper scripts (from shell or Perl) or via frontends that poll network devices and put friendly user interface on it.
This package contains a tcl interface to RRDs.

rsaref2 RSADSI's RSAREF 2.0 encryption library
RSAREF is a free, portable software developer's library of popular encryption and authentication algorithms. The name "RSAREF" means "RSA reference." RSA Laboratories intends RSAREF to serve as a free, educational reference implementation of modern public- and secret-key cryptography.
RSAREF 2.0 is also the only (apart from RSAREF 1.0) way to legally use RSA within the United States (until the 20th Sep 2000). It license is surprisingly liberal but it places restrictions upon using the library for revenue generating purposes. See the license file for full details.
RSAREF 2.0 supports the following algorithms:
o RSA encryption and key generation, as defined by RSA Laboratories' Public-Key Cryptography Standards (PKCS) o MD2 and MD5 message digests o DES (Data Encryption Standard) in cipher-block chaining mode o Diffie-Hellman key agreement o DESX, RSA Data Security's efficient, secure DES enhancement o Triple-DES, for added security with three DES operations
Version 2.0 offers three other improvements over RSAREF 1.0: the ability to process messages of arbitrary length in parts; the option to process either binary data, or data encoded in printable ASCII; and support for encrypting messages for more than one recipient.

run Watch programs and restart them if they die
Run allows you to run a program, and ensure that you have only one of that program running simultaneously. i.e. we would like to run some program, but not if its already running. We also may need to restart the program if it dies. Run accomplishes these tasks giving all the functionality that would otherwise require tedious shell scripting to accomplish. PLEASE NOTICE that upstream considers this package "a broken program" and advises on his home page not to use run unless one is prepared to debug. However, run seems to be working reasonably well, but be warned. Remove the Conflicts: line from control file if you want to build on potato
rungetty a minimal console getty that can run any process
rungetty might be the getty you were looking for. It is able to run any program, not just login. If a different program than login is used it usually is run as nobody.nobody, or the user/group specified on the commandline. rungetty can even be configured to autologin, under certain circumstances. See the manual page for more information.
You have to change some lines in /etc/inittab for having any effect after installing the package. rungetty is based on mingetty and therefore not suitable for serial use.
rusers Displays who is logged in to machines on local network.
The rusers command produces output similar to who, but for the list of hosts or all machines on the local network. For each host responding to the rusers query, the hostname with the names of the users currently logged on is printed on each line. The rusers command will wait for one minute to catch late responders.
rusersd Logged in users server.
This is a server which returns information about users currently logged in to the system.
rwall Send a message to users logged on a host.
The rwall command sends a message to the users logged into the specified host. The message to be sent can be typed in and terminated with EOF or it can be in a file.
rwalld Write messages to users currently logged in server.
rpc.rwalld is a server which will send a message to users currently logged in to the system. This server invokes the wall(1) command to actually write the messages to the system.
rwho Clients to query the rwho server
The rwho command produces output similar to who, but for all machines on the local network. If no report has been received from a machine for 11 minutes then rwho assumes the machine is down, and does not report users last known to be logged into that machine.
The ruptime command gives a status line like uptime for each machine on the local network; these are formed from packets broadcast by each host on the network once a minute.
rwhod System status server
Rwhod is the server which maintains the database used by the rwho(1) and ruptime(1) programs. Its operation is predicated on the ability to broadcast messages on a network.

sablecc An Object-Oriented Compiler Framework
SableCC is an object-oriented framework that generates compilers (and interpreters) in the Java programming language. This framework is based on two fundamental design decisions. Firstly, the framework uses object-oriented techniques to automatically build a strictly typed abstract syntax tree that matches the grammar of the compiled language and simplifies debugging. Secondly, the framework generates tree-walker classes using an extended version of the visitor design pattern which enables the implementation of actions on the nodes of the abstract syntax tree using inheritance. These two design decisions lead to a tool that supports a shorter development cycle for constructing compilers.

sam the plan9 text editor -- ed with a gui and multi-file editing
sam -d can be used without X (with an ed-like interface -- but with more powerful regular expressions, the capacity to edit multiple files with a single command, and unlimited undo). Files can be added to an exiting sam session using the B command.
sam without the -d option is an graphical editor with pop-up menus and a point+click interface. You'll want to read sam's manual page to use the full power of sam, but you can probably figure out how to do basic editing with a minimum of trial and error.
If you have a Plan 9 terminal, you can use the Plan 9 terminal with sam to edit unix files, but not vice-versa; the Plan 9 authentication scheme does not honor remote execution requests from a non-Plan 9 system.
samba-common Samba common files used by both the server and the client.

The SANE standard is free and its discussion and development is open to everybody. The current source code is written for UNIX (including Linux) and is available under the GNU public license (commercial application and backends are welcome, too, however).
sanitizer The Anomy Mail Sanitizer - an email virus scanner
The Anomy sanitizer is what most people would call "an email virus scanner". That description is not totally accurate, but it does cover one of the more important jobs that the sanitizer can do for you - it can scan email attachments for viruses. Other things it can do:
Disable potentially dangerous HTML code, such as javascript, within incoming email.
Protect you from email-based break-in attempts which exploit bugs in common email programs (Outlook, Eudora, Pine, ...).
Block or "mangle" attachments based on their file names. This way if you don't *need* to receive e.g. visual basic scripts, then you don't have to worry about the security risk they imply (the ILOVEYOU virus was a visual basic program). This lets you protect yourself and your users from whole classes of attacks, without relying on complex, resource intensive and outdated virus scanning solutions.
saoimage A utility for displaying and processing astronomical images.
SAOimage (pronounced S-A-0-image) is a utility for displaying astronomical images wich runs under the X11 window environment.

You need the files from the original games.
sash Stand-alone shell.
sash serves as an interactive substitute for /bin/sh, for use when /bin/sh is unusable. It's statically linked, and inludes many standard utilities as builtins (type "help" at the prompt for a reference list). If you've installed sash before rendering your system unbootable, and you have some knowledge of how your system is supposed to work, you might be able to repair your system using init=/bin/sash at the boot prompt.
Some people also prefer to have sash available as the shell for a root account (perhaps an under an alternate name such as sashroot) Configuration support is included for people who want this.
Note: sash is not intended to serve as /bin/sh, and has few of the interactive features present in bash or ksh. It's designed to be simple and robust, for people who need to do emergency repair work on a system.
Also note: sash doesn't include a built-in fsck -- fsck is too big and complicated. If you need fsck, you'll have to get at least one partition or disk working well enough to run fsck. More generally, sash is but one tool of many (backups, backup recovery tools, emergency boot disks or partitions, spare parts, testing of disaster plans, etc.) to help you recover a damaged system.

scrollz An advanced ircII-based IRC client
ScrollZ is advanced IRC client based on ircII code. It adds features normally found in ircII scripts like Toolz, PhoEniX, GargOyle or Lice.
The main difference between these scripts and ScrollZ is the code. Where ircII scripts take a lot of disk and memory space and run slow, ScrollZ only takes a couple of extra kilobytes compared to stock ircII client yet runs faster than any ircII script. This was accomplished by using C code instead of ircII scripting language. This reduces memory and CPU usage and code tends to run way faster.
scrot command line screen capture utility
scrot (SCReen shOT) is a simple commandline screen capture utility that uses imlib2 to grab and save images. Multiple image formats are supported through imlib2's dynamic saver modules.
scsh A `scheme' interpreter designed for writing system programs.
Scsh has a high-level process notation for doing shell-script like tasks: running programs, establishing pipelines and I/O redirection. Scsh embeds this process notation within a full Scheme implementation. The process notation is realized as a set of macro definitions, and is carefully designed to allow full integration with standard Scheme code. Scsh isn't Scheme-like; it is Scheme.
At the scripting level, scsh also has an Awk design, also implemented as a macro that can be embedded inside general Scheme code.
Scsh additionally provides the low-level access to the operating system normally associated with C. The current release provides full access to POSIX, plus important non-POSIX extensions, such as complete sockets support. "Complete POSIX" means: fork, exec & wait, sockets, full read, write, open & close, seek & tell, complete file-system access, including stat, chmod/chgrp/chown, symlink, FIFO & directory access, tty & pty support, file locking, pipes, select, file-name pattern-matching, time & date, environment variables, signal handlers, and more.
Please be aware that several of the other scheme implementations being distributed as Debian GNU/Linux packages also provide much of the similar system programming functionality. It is wisest to try them all and explore.
scsiadd Add or remove SCSI devices by rescanning the bus.
scsiadd allows you to add or remove SCSI devices without having to restart the computer. This is *NOT* a substitute for powering down to connect or disconnect hardware unless it's specifically designed to be hot swappable. Use it to enable the external SCSI drive you only use occasionally so is powered off when the machine first boots, or to rescan the bus after moving hot-swap drives around. scsiadd will also try to prevent you from doing anything to disrupt drive names that are in use. Similar functionality is available by echoing text to /proc/scsi/scsi
scsitools Collection of tools for SCSI hardware management
This package is a collection of tools for manipulating SCSI hardware:
scsiinfo: displays SCSI drive low-level information and modifies SCSI drive settings, scsidev: makes permanent SCSI LUN -> devicename connections, scsifmt: low-level SCSI formatter, sraw: benchmarks raw SCSI I/O rates bypassing the buffer cache, scsistop: low-level SCSI drive start/stop program, scsi-spin: program to manually spin up and down a SCSI device.
Be aware that these tools require some knowledge of what are they doing to be used properly, not causing damage to your system.

searchandrescue Fly aircraft to Search (for) and Rescue people in distress.
Tired of scores indicating things destroyed or lives snuffed? Try something different -- fly a helicopter around and rescue people in distress. If you were in trouble wouldn't you want someone to rescue you?
This game is intended for players of all audiences, but especially for mature players who want to get away from the violence and still retain a level of precise challenge. Flight difficulty can be lowered for beginners (regardless of mission type), and graphics minimized to suit slower computers (minimum Pentium 166 with no graphics acceleration).
This package has been configured to depend on libjsw for joystick support and libY2 for sound support. However, neither a joystick nor sound support is necessary to enjoy the game.
http://wolfpack.twu.net/SearchAndRescue/

seesat5 a satellite location program
Seesat5 uses the NORAD sgp4 algorithm to compute the location of a satellite. Many different filtering methods are provided by Seesat5 so that only those satellites that might actually be viewed are presented in the report. This report includes bearing and elevation with respect to the observer's location as well as other information of interest to the observer.
Although an observer would find no use for it, the program can be made to report the location even when it is below the horizon. For radio satellites like the Oscar series knowing when it comes above the horizon is some of the interesting information this program can provide.
sel Fullscreen file-selection and execution tool
sel displays a listing of files like a file-manager. You can move around using the arrow-keys and run a command given on the command-line on the selected file with the <RETURN> - key. If you've installed the terminfo- library delivered with ncurses, sel will use colors.

It uses the GTK+ toolkit, and includes options like a timer to start the default window manager, and modification of the window manager list from within selectwm.
semantic A lexer, parser-generator, and parser written in elisp
The Semantic Bovinator's goal is to provide an intermediate API for authors of language agnostic tools who want to deal with languages in a generic way. It also provides a simple way for Mode Authors, who are experts in their language, to provide a parser for those tool authors, without knowing anything about those tools.
The Semantic Bovinator is made up of these important pieces: - lexer: Converts a language into a token stream - parser: Converts a token stream into a stream of nonterminals defined by the language. - parser-generator: Converts a language definition into a table usable by the parser. (Written using the Semantic Bovinator) - Language Definitions: Parsers already existing for the parser generator language (Bovine Normal Form), Emacs Lisp, and C. - speedbar browser: Code for browsing a generated nonterminal list with Speedbar. - Documentation generator: Identifies inline documentation in source code, and can convert it to texinfo. It can also create inline documentation.
semi Library to provide MIME feature for GNU Emacs.
SEMI is a library to provide MIME feature for GNU Emacs. MIME is a proposed internet standard for including content and headers other than (ASCII) plain text in messages.
sendfile Simple Asynchronous File Transfer
Sendfile is an asynchronous file transfer service for the Internet, like the sendfile facility in Bitnet: Any user A can send files to another user B without B being active in any way.
The existing standard file transfer (ftp) is a synchronous service: The user must have access to an account on the sending and on the receiving site, too.
Sendfile for Unix, which is an implementation of the SAFT protocol (Simple Asynchronous File Transfer) now offers you a true asynchronous file transfer service for the Internet. Virtually any form of file can be sent, including encrypted ones. The SAFT protocol will be submitted as an RFC in the near future.
sendip A commandline tool to allow sending arbitrary IP packets.
SendIP has a large number of command line options to specify the content of every header of a RIP, TCP, UDP, ICMP or raw IPv4 and IPv6 packet. It also allows any data to be added to the packet. Checksums can be calculated automatically, but if you wish to send out wrong checksums, that is supported too.
sendmail-doc A powerful, efficient, and scalable Mail Transport Agent.
Sendmail is an alternative Mail Transport Agent (MTA) for Debian. It is suitable for handling sophisticated mail configurations, although this means that its configuration can also be complex.

The main files are: 1) cf.README.gz -- A reference for all things in sendmail.{mc,cf} 2) op.{ps,txt}.gz -- The care and feeding of Sendmail. 3) faq.txt.gz -- Sendmail FAQ, current as of the package date. Other files include the references for smrsh and libmilter.
sendmail-wide WIDE patch applied /usr/sbin/sendmail
This package replaces /usr/sbin/sendmail with WIDE patch version, which provides some enhancement for the sendmail. This patch is required to use "smtpfeed" efficiently, which is an external SMTP mailer. In other words, *YOU DON'T NEED THIS PACKAGE FOR NORMAL USE OF SENDMAIL*.
WIDE patch includes followings patches: QUICK_RESPONSE - bounce mail not queued MULTI_MAILER - multiple mailer dispatch in ruleset like: R$*<@dom>$* $#smtp$@dom$:$1<@dom>$2 $#uucp$@dom$:$1<@dom>$2 CF_ALIASING - alias in ruleset 5 like: R foo-a $# local $@ alias $: foo-a, foo-b MAILER_PREF - mailer preferences CLIENT_SMTP_CONFIG - 3 parameters of client-side SMTP connection FQDN: FQDN used as a hostname with SMTP HELO SrcIPaddr: source IP address for client-side SMTP (12.34.56.78) SrcPort: source port number for client-side SMTP CTE8CHECK - Option CTE8BitChec=[corrent|reject] OO_NULLSENDER - Set NULL sender envelope address for "owner-owner" MF_SEPARATE - address will not be unified for mailer flag '^' MASKED_ADDR - matching by masked IP address SPR_CON_CACHE - connection-caching control par mailer basis. FORWARDPROGCTL - privilege control on execution of programs via ~/.forward MAILER_TIMEOUTS - control message timeout per mailer basis. CHECK_WARNING - control whether a queue-warning should be sent or not For more information, see /usr/share/doc/sendmail-wide/00READ_ME.WIDE.gz
Note that original sendmail is diverted to /usr/sbin/sendmail-nowide.
WIDE is project name and stands for `Widely Integrated Distribution Environment'. Research goal of WIDE project is "to establish large-scale distributed computing environment". WIDE Project is working for providing the wide area communication infrastructure with our telecommunication technology and operating system technology, and trying hard to contribute to the people. http://www.wide.ad.jp/
sendmail A powerful, efficient, and scalable Mail Transport Agent.
Sendmail is an alternative Mail Transport Agent (MTA) for Debian. It is suitable for handling sophisticated mail configurations, although this means that its configuration can also be complex. Fortunately, easy thing can be done easily, and complex things are possible, even if not easily understood ;) Sendmail is the *ONLY* MTA with a Turing complete language under the covers !
Sendmail provides Security and SPAM/UCE/UBE protection via several means: - STARTTLS(SSL) RFC2487 encryption for mail reception/delivery. - STARTTLS(SSL) authentication (certificate based) for access/relay control. - SMTP AUTH (SASL/PAM) authentication for access/relay control. - ACCESS database (by IP/host) for access/relay control. - Use of varied Realtime Blackhole Lists (RBL) to prevent access. - Integration of LOGCHECK rules to fine-tune logging. - Inboard POSIX Regular Expression processing of *all* headers. - Ability (via MILTER) to scan/change headers *and* body of *ALL* mail A site may utilize zero, one, or more MILTERs. - Reduced SUID exposures by running SGID smmsp/mail where possible.
Sendmail provides Performance and Scalability by: - Allowing multiple queues, with the ability to tune both interval and queue runners on a queue by queue basis. - Providing (a Debian exclusive) an easy to configure means of queue-aging to improve throughput by not continually retrying failed deliveries. - Allowing most all maps/databases to be obtained via LDAP; reducing the number of used databases and simplifying the maintenance of Sendmail. - Reducing the file I/O where possible by buffering files in memory.
Sendmail provides site enhanced site configuration/customization by: - Allowing the listener (usually port 25) to run as a daemon or via INETD. - Allowing the queue runner (mail delivery) to run as a daemon or via CRON. - Automagically updating configuration and databases on upgrades. - Providing a Turing complete language for site customization of mail handling. - Providing a means (MILTER) for a site to scan/change all email - both incoming and outgoing. A site can write their own MILTER, or may use any of those found on internet. To write your own MILTER, you'll need to install the optional milter-dev package. - Providing extensive documentation via the sendmail-doc (optional) package. - Providing an inboard Mail Delivery Agent (MDA) (mail.local), but supporting procmail, mailagent, maildrop, or deliver automatically if installed. Sendmail will also deliver to anythings else (cyrus, etc) if asked to.
Sendmail includes *no* Mail User Agents (MUA), you'll have to pick from the plethora of available MUAs (pine, mutt, vm, etc.)
This package supports REGEX, DB, NIS, NIS+, LDAP, DNS, HESIOD maps, and has enabled TCPWrappers, IPv6, LockFile, SMTP AUTH(SASL), STARTTLS(SSL).
sendpage An easy-to-use Unix tool for sending pages.
Sendpage is a front end to the PET protocol used by many paging systems. PET is also knows as IXO or TAP. It can dial up your paging service and send alphanumeric pages. Other software (such as mon) can be set up to automatically send pages, email can be forwarded to your pager, etc. Sendpage is licensed under the GPL.
ser2net Allows network connections to serial ports
This daemon allows telnet and tcp sessions to be established with a unit's serial ports. Combined with a terminal emulation like xterm or the Linux console, this can be a very simple means of communicating with routers, other systems' serial consoles and other equipment with a serial port. This is remarkably similar to some Cisco router's reverse telnet function.
serialmail-src tools for passing mail across serial links (source)
This is a source only package for building serialmail binary package from source, because Dan Bernstein (serialmail's author) only gives permission for qmail to be distributed in source form, or binary for by approval.
Serialmail is for passing mail across serial links, like a modem or a slow link: you use qmail to deliver messages to a maildir, and then serialmail to deliver messages out of the maildir using SMTP or QMTP.
Written by Dan J. Bernstein, serialmail uses ucspi-tcp/tcpclient for networking, so it can be used with future UCSPI clients for transparent compression, IPv6, etc.
series The series package is a general iteration library for Lisps.
It can do anything loop can, but in a more functional way.
serpento dict server with full unicode support
serpento is a dict server written in python. If you want to run the server, you need also dictionary files. You can use those provided as debian packages (dict, dict-gcide, dict-wn, dict-jargon, dict-foldoc etc.) See /usr/share/doc/serpento/README.debian for info.
setcd Control the behaviour of your cdrom device
This program allows you to control the behaviour of your Linux cdrom player. You'll need a cdrom device that complies to the new interface defined in linux/Documentation/cdrom/cdrom-standard.tex. For kernel 2.0 this is only the cm206 drive, for kernel 2.1 this includes IDE and SCSI drives.
You can control: auto close, auto eject, medium type checking and tray locking. You can get information on the volume name of cdroms and other data, and you can set the speed of your drive and choose a disc from a jukebox.
In order to fully exploit the possibilities, you'll need libc6 and a recent version of the the linux kernel, but you will get decent error behaviour in return. Expect a message "No medium found" if you attempt to mount an empty drive or "Wrong medium type" if you try to mount an audio disc, instead of a whole load of kernel error messages.
The source of this package may be an example for cdrom player program developers that wish to exploit the features of the new cdrom interface.
seti-applet GNOME applet to display the progress of a seti@home client.
This applet gives you the control of the SETI@home client through the GNOME panel. You can use it to control several instances of the client, each with diferent data files. It can display the number of units processed, total CPU time, best spike, best gaussian and the total percentagem completed.
You need to have the SETI@home client installed to use this package. You can either use the debian wrapper package setiathome or download it from http://setiathome.ssl.berkeley.edu.
setmixer a command mode mixer.
Got bored resetting soundcard manually after every reboot? Here is a small utility which can help you to avoid that. The whole source is setmixer.c.
setserial Controls configuration of serial ports.
Set and/or report the configuration information associated with a serial port. This information includes what I/O port and which IRQ a particular serial port is using.
This version has a completely new approach to configuration, so if you have a setup other than the standard ttyS0 and 1, you will have to get your hands dirty.
By default, only COM1-4 are configured by the kernel, using IRQ 3 and 4. If you have other serial ports (such as an AST Fourport card), or if you have mapped the IRQs differently (perhaps COM3 and 4 to other IRQs to allow concurrent access with COM1 and 2) then you must have this package.
sex Simple editor for X
The Simple editor for X (SeX) is a relatively small, simple, not too slow editor for X. It has no text mode user interface. It doesn't have very many features. The primary attraction is the mouse language, which is almost identical to xterm's, but clicking the middle mouse button inside a selection cuts it instead of pasting it.
seyon Full-featured native X11 communications program.
Seyon is a complete full-featured modem communications package for the X Window System. Some of its features are: - dialing directory - terminal emulation (DEC VT02, Tektronix 4014 and ANSI) - script language - Zmodem

sg-utils Utilities for working with generic SCSI devices.
This package includes a number of utilities to manipulate the linux "sg" (version 2) device driver, and to a lesser extent, the version 1 driver found in the 2.0.x kernels.
The version 2 driver is only found in 2.2.x linux kernels; if you are using 2.4, please install the sg3-utils package instead.
The package includes: * isosize - gives the number of bytes in an iso9660 filesystem * scsi_inquiry - same as sg_inq, only uses SCSI_IOCTL_SEND_COMMAND * sg_dd - a variant of 'dd' that works with the sg interface * sg_debug - prints debug info for all open sg file descriptors * sg_inq - a utility for poking around with the SCSI INQUIRY command * sg_map - shows the mapping between SCSI devices and sg devices * sg_rbuf - tests SCSI bus speed * sg_readcap - prints the output of a READ CAPACITY command * sg_runt_ex - an example program to test the sg driver version * sg_scan - displays the SCSI bus on stdout * sg_start - spins up (or down) disks * sg_test_rwbuf - tests the SCSI host adapter * sg_turs - execute a TEST UNIT READY command on the given device * sg_whoami - displays information about the given sg device * sginfo - a re-porting of the 'scsiinfo' program to use sg devices * sgp_dd - like sg_dd, only multithreaded
It also includes sg_simple1 and sg_simple2, which demonstrate calls to the SCSI INQUIRY and TEST UNIT READY commands. They only differ in their error processing: sg_simple1 uses sg_err.[hc] for error processing while sg_simple2 does its own more primitive checks.
sg3-utils Utilities for working with generic SCSI devices.

sgmltools-2 Replaced by sgmltools-lite (dummy package for upgrade)
sgmltools-2 is now obsoleted and replaced by sgmltools-lite. This is dummy package for automatic migration.
sgmltools-lite convert DocBook SGML source into HTML using DSSSL
A text-formatting package based on SGML (Standard Generalized Markup Language), which allows you to produce TeX/DVI/PS/PDF, HTML, RTF, and plain ASCII (currently via w3m by default) from a single source with other recommended and suggested packages; due to the flexible nature of SGML, many other target formats are possible.
This tool can not handle DocBook XML yet. For DocBook SGML only.
HTML can be generated without any other Debian text processing package, but for the other formats the appropriate packages have to be installed. You need to install lynx or w3m for ASCII text output (w3m is the default txt backend). Also jadetex is required for PS and PDF, and linuxdoc-tools for ld2db conversion.
This system is tailored for writing technical software documentation, an example of which are the Linux HOWTO documents. However, there is nothing Linux-specific about this package; it can be used for many other types of documentation on many other systems. It should be useful for all kinds of printed and online documentation.
The package was formerly called linuxdoc-sgml because it originates from the Linux Documentation Project (LDP). The name has been changed into sgmltools to make it clearer that there is no Linux-specific stuff included in this package.
This is the latest version of the sgmltools series and the successor of sgmltools v2.
sgrep a tool to search a file for structured pattern
Sgrep (structured grep) is a tool for searching text files and filtering text streams for structured criteria. Sgrep implements a query language based on so called region expressions.

sipp-dev development library for sipp
Get this if you want to compile programs with sipp.
sipp create and render 3-d scenes
This is SIPP, the SImple Polygon Processor, version 3.1. SIPP is a library for creating 3-dimensional scenes and rendering them using a scan-line z-buffer algorithm. A scene is built up of objects which can be transformed with rotation, translation and scaling. The objects form hierarchies where each object can have arbitrarily many subobjects and subsurfaces. A surface is a number of connected polygons which are rendered with either Phong, Gouraud or flat shading. An image can also be rendered as a line drawing of the polygon edges without any shading at all.
The library supports texture mapping with textures in up to 3-dimensions and automatic interpolation of texture coordinates. Simple anti-aliasing can be performed through oversampling. A scene can be illuminated by an arbitrary number of light sources and a number of different light sources are availaible. The light from some of them are capable of casting shadows of objects. A basic shading algorithm is provided with the library, but the user can also use his own shading algorithms for each surface to produce special effects. Objects can have varying degree of transparency, controlled by the shader.

smalleiffel The GNU Eiffel Compiler
SmallEiffel is a compiler for the Eiffel language, which is a pure object-oriented language providing strong type-checking and based on the concept of 'design by contract'. It allows multiple inheritance and does it well.
Design-by-contract means that a class guarantees that certain conditions will always hold, and that a routine guarantees certain results given certain specified inputs. The rules for inheritance mean that contracts can be relied on even when classes are reused through inheritance.
The Eiffel language is described and defined in the book "Eiffel: The Language" by Bertrand Meyer.
smartcard A smartcard utility for Linux
`smartcard' allows you to control a smart card reader from the command line. Currently, it supports just a few basic commands which only work on plain I2C memory cards.
smartlist Versatile and Intelligent List Processor
SmartList is a mailing list manager built on top of the procmail mail processing package. Some features: * Enough intelligence to overcome the ignorance of some subscribers (will direct subscribe and unsubscribe requests away from the regular list and automatically onto the -request address). * No hardwired format for (un)subscribe requests (i.e. new subscribers need not be educated, unsubscribing users do not need to remember any particular syntax). *Intelligent* automatic removal of addresses from the list that cause too many bounces. * Duplicate submissions are eliminated automatically. * You can set up a mailing list to function as a standalone mail archive server.
smartsuite SMART suite - SMART utility suite for Linux

smb2www A Windows Network client that is accessible through a web browser.
With this package you will be able to browse a Windows Network using a standard web browser. It is based upon the samba package.
smbclient A LanManager like simple client for Unix.
The Samba software suite is a collection of programs that implements the SMB protocol for unix systems, allowing you to serve files and printers to Windows, NT, OS/2 and DOS clients. This protocol is sometimes also referred to as the LanManager or NetBIOS protocol.
This package contains some client components of the Samba suite. In particular it includes the command line utilities smbclient, smbtar, and smbspool. If you want to mount shares exported from Microsoft Windows machines or a Samba server you must install the smbfs package.
smbfs mount and umount commands for the smbfs (for kernels >= than 2.2.x)
Smbfs is a filesystem which understands the SMB protocol. This is the protocol Windows for Workgroups, Windows NT or LAN Manager use to talk to each other. It was inspired by samba, the program by Andrew Tridgell that turns any unix site into a file server for DOS or Windows clients.
If you want to use command-line utilities like smbclient, smbtar and/or smbspool just need to install the smbclient package.
Starting with the Debian Samba packages version 2.2.0-1, the old smbfs utilities for 2.0.x have been removed. There are no wrapper scripts that call a specific smbmount/smbumount depending on the kernel version. If you are using a 2.0.x kernel please upgrade or use the latest Samba 2.0.7 Debian package.
sml-mode A major Emacs mode for editing Standard ML.
It provides syntax highlighting and automatic indentation and comes with sml-proc which allows interaction with an inferior SML interactive loop.

There is an event-handler option that allows you to call your own programs or scripts after sent or received SM.
The SMS Server Tools use one or more (max. 32) GSM modems to send and receive SM. You can equip some modems with Vodafone SIM cards and other with Telmi SIM cards (for example), to save money. All SM are sorted in queues by provider. If one modem fails it will be deactivated for one hour before the software retries. The other modems run without any restriction. You can log status information and alarms using the syslog daemon of your operating system.

smtm Show Me The Money is a configurable Perl/Tk stock ticker program
smtm, which is a not overly clever acronym for Show Me The Money, is a simple stock ticker application. It creates and automatically updates a window with stock quotes from Yahoo! Finance. When called with one or several stock symbols, it displays these selected stocks, and also records the symbols for later use. When smtm is called without arguments, it reads the symbols tickers from a (default or specified) file. This file can be created explicitly by calling the Save option from the File menu, or implicitly whenever smtm is called with one or more symbols.
smtm is fully configurable -- it can display the stock symbol and the full name of the company, the price change, the percentage change, the volume traded, the profit or loss, the value of the holding, the length of the holding period as well as annualised percentage returns. The display can be sort on almost any of the columns. Losers are flagged in red. smtm can be used for North American equities, as well as European and Australian/NZ ones. It should work for other markets supported by Yahoo! Finance.
The quotes are delayed, typically 15 minutes for NASDAQ and 20 minutes otherwise, see Yahoo! Finance for details.
smtp-refuser Simple spam-block with refusal message
Smtp-refuser can be configured to reject mail from specific hosts (or that satisfy other tcpd hosts.allow or similar rules), returning a meaningful message including the reason it was bounced and a local phone number. Because spam often has a bad envelope-from, (and because this is more efficient), we bounce it with an error message during the SMTP transaction, rather than send bounce mail later.
This SMTP refuser is used along with "tcpd" or (another TCP security daemon) to bounce messages from the IP addresses of known spammers. The advantage of this over just blocking the connection is that the remote SMTP server will not retry, and a legitimate e-mail sender will get a polite message telling them why their mail was blocked and whom to call to get around the blocking.
Mail that is not blocked by smtp-refuser is delivered to your standard mail transport agent.
Other, more automated solutions such as RBL and ORBS (supported by most of the mail transfer agents), have become available since smtp-refuser was written, but this may still be of interest to you.
smtpd Mail proxy for firewalls with anti-spam and anti-relay features
Smtpd uses two programs, smtpd which listens for incoming mail and places it in a private queue, and smtpfwdd, which invokes sendmail to deliver messages from the queue. The configuration file for smtpd has powerful features for controlling the acceptance of incoming mail.
It is particularly useful for firewall sites, where the policy aspects of which mail should be accepted (in smtpd's configuration file) are clearly separated from the routing and other aspects of the mail configuration (which remain in the sendmail configuration file)
It can be used with any mail-transport-agent which can be invoked as sendmail but is intended to integrate with the Debian sendmail package, which recognises when smtpd has been installed.
If you are attempting to use it with an MTA other than sendmail then you will need to be prepared to modify the MTA configuration.
smtpfeed SMTP feed -- SMTP Fast Exploding External Deliver for Sendmail
Smtpfeed is a SMTP delivery agent which is called by sendmail, and it improves required time to complete delivery of copies of a message to recipients of huge number.
Note that smtpfeed still in ALPHA testing release.

snacc ASN.1 to C or C++ or IDL compiler
Snacc is short for "Sample Neufeld ASN.1 to C Compiler" and ASN.1 stands for Abstract Syntax Notation One (ITU-T X.208/ISO 8824). Snacc supports a subset of ASN.1 1988. If you need features of ASN.1 1992 or later, snacc is not for you.
Given an ASN.1 source file(s) snacc can produce:
1. C routines for BER encoding, decoding, printing and freeing. 2. C++ routines for BER encoding, decoding, and printing. 3. A type table that can be used with C driver routines for BER encoding, decoding, printing and freeing.
If you want to build snacc based applications, you want to install the libsnacc-dev package, too. Your application will then depend on the snacc libraries, you find in the libsnacc0 package.

speedbar Dired on steroids
Speedbar is an Emacs Lisp program which allows you to create a special skinny frame with a specialized directory listing in it. This listing will have both directories and filtered files in it. You can then load files into your emacs frame, or expand the files to display all the tags that are in them and jump to those tags. You can also expand multiple directories into your speedbar frame.
speedy-cgi-perl speed up perl scripts by making them persistent.
SpeedyCGI is a way to run perl scripts persistently, which usually makes them run much more quickly because it avoids the overhead of starting up a new perl interpreter and compiling the perl code. It is most often used for CGI scripts but it can be used to speed up most perl programs.
spell GNU Spell, a clone of Unix `spell'
GNU Spell is a spell checking program which prints each misspelled word on a line of its own. It is designed as a clone of the standard Unix `spell' program, and implemented as a wrapper for Ispell. Spell accepts as its arguments a list of files to read from. Within that list, the magical file name `-' causes Spell to read from standard input. In addition, when called with no file name arguments, Spell assumes that it should process standard input.

strace A system call tracer.
strace is a system call tracer, i.e. a debugging tool which prints out a trace of all the system calls made by a another process/program. The program to be traced need not be recompiled for this, so you can use it on binaries for which you don't have source.
System calls and signals are events that happen at the user/kernel interface. A close examination of this boundary is very useful for bug isolation, sanity checking and attempting to capture race conditions.
streamer capture tool (images / movies)
A tool to capture single/multiple images or record movies from a video4linux device.
stunnel Universal SSL tunnel for network daemons
The stunnel program is designed to work as SSL encryption wrapper between remote client and local (inetd-startable) or remote server. The concept is that having non-SSL aware daemons running on your system you can easily setup them to communicate with clients over secure SSL channel.

Sunclock can display meridians, parallels, tropics and arctic circles. It has builtin functions that accelerate the speed of time and show the evolution of seasons.
sup Software Upgrade Protocol implementation
The SUP System is a set of programs developed by Carnegie Mellon University that provide for collections of files to be maintained in identical versions across a number of machines. These programs are:
SUP: The "client" program, run by users or system maintainers, which initiates the upgrade activity on a machine requesting the latest version of a collection of files. SUP will normally be run as a daemon, firing up once each night (week, etc.) to upgrade the specified file collections.
SUPFILESRV: The "file server" program, a daemon that is run by the system maintainer to service requests for files initiated by client SUP programs. The file server runs on every machine used as a "repository" of distributable versions of files. It runs continuously and listens for network connection requests by individual client processes; for each individual client request, a process is forked to service that request.
SUPSCAN: The "file scanner" program, that may optionally be run periodically to speed up execution of the file server. It pre-compiles a list of files on the file system that match the specifications for a given file collection so that the file server need not do this during each upgrade of that collection. The file scanner is normally used daily for very large file collections that are upgraded by many clients each day; it is not so useful for small file collections or for those that are upgraded by only a few client machines per day.
super Execute commands setuid root
Super allows specified users to execute scripts (or other commands) as if they were root; or it can set the uid and/or gid on a per-command basis before executing the command. It is intended to be a secure alternative to making scripts setuid root.
superd Single-port inetd with pre-forking, suited for high-speed servers.
superd turns any program that normally talks to stdin and stdout into a high speed server. It's similar in functionality to inetd but it handles only one port per invocation. It uses pre-forking and file descriptor passing to achieve high performance.

Surfraw provides a fast unix command line interface to a variety of popular WWW search engines and other artifacts of power. It reclaims google, altavista, dejanews, freshmeat, research index, slashdot and many others from the false-prophet, pox-infested heathen lands of html-forms, placing these wonders where they belong, deep in unix heartland, as god loving extensions to the shell.
Surfraw abstracts the browser away from input. Doing so lets it get on with what it's good at. Browsing. Interpretation of linguistic forms is handed back to the shell, which is what it, and human beings are good at. Combined with incremental text browsers, such as links, w3m (or even lynx), and screen(1), or netscape-remote a Surfraw liberateur is capable of research speeds that leave GUI tainted idolaters agape with fear and wonder.
survex-aven Sophisticated cave survey viewer for Survex
Advanced cave viewer for Survex, written using the wxWindows library. Aven supersedes the xcaverot viewer in the main survex package.
survex Cave surveying and mapping software
A software suite to process, view, and print cave survey data. Survex is cross-platform (Linux/Unix, MS Windows, DOS, RISC OS). It includes English, French, German, Portuguese, Catalan, and Spanish internationalisations. It can deal with extremely large and complex datasets and can read survey data from many sources.
svgalib-dummyg1 Dummy replacement for svgalib1
This package can replace the usual svgalib1 package, on which many other packages depend. Unfortunately, the proper svgalib1 requires some configuration and is a bit verbose, so if you don't need console graphics at all, and would install it only to satisfy dependencies, this dummy package may be an alternative for you.
This package can also be used on architectures where the real svgalib1 hasn't been ported to (e.g. m68k).
It also provides the few headers from the -dev package and should be usable as a development environment.
svgalib1-libggi2 SVGAlib wrapper library for LibGGI
The GGI project is developing the "General Graphics Interface", a set of APIs, drivers and other interfaces aiming to provide a fast, portable graphics environment for UNIX-like operating systems.
This package contains an implementation of the SVGAlib API, but one which does not access the physical display hardware directly. Instead, SVGAlib's interface is implemented via calls to LibGGI. Using this library, you can run SVGAlib applications on any display target supported by LibGGI (except the real SVGAlib itself).
You should not attempt to compile SVGAlib applications against this wrapper library. Install svgalibg1-dev or svgalib-dummyg1 for this.
swapd Swap demon for dynamic swap file creation
Swapd is a dynamic swapping manager for Linux. It provides the system with as much swap space (virtual memory) as is required at a particular time by dynamically creating swap files. This is more convenient than using fixed swap files and/or partitions because they (a) are unused most of the time and are just taking up disk space; and (b) provide a limited amount of virtual memory.
On systems that have constant need for virtual memory it would still be wise to use a swap partition in parallel with dynamic swapping, since swap partitions provide much faster access than swap files.
swat Samba Web Administration Tool
The Samba software suite is a collection of programs that implements the SMB protocol for unix systems, allowing you to serve files and printers to Windows, NT, OS/2 and DOS clients. This protocol is sometimes also referred to as the LanManager or NetBIOS protocol.

swatch log file viewer with regexp matching, highlighting, & hooks
Swatch is designed to monitor system activity. It reads a configuration file which contains pattern(s) to look for and action(s) to perform when each pattern is found.
A typical action is echoing the matched line in a variety of colours and formats including reverse video, bold, underline, and normal, which swatch knows how to do internally. Other actions include sending mail or executing an arbitrary program on the line.
Swatch is written in Perl and uses Perl regular expressions for line matching.
This Debian version of swatch includes two directives not yet found in the "official" swatch -- "PERLCODE" and "threshold".

This program is a filter which shall improve the readability for messages (email and posts) by *hiding* some annoying parts, e.g. mailing list footers, signatures and TOFU as well as squeezing sequences of blank lines or punctuation.
TOFU is an acronym that stands for "Text oben, Fullquote unten" (german language) which means the style of sadly so many people that just leave all the quotes in a reply and add some own lines above. This acronym is what gave the script it's name - TOFU Protection.
It currently offers hints how to include it within mutt. It should be possible to do similars with other mailers that allow to have a message run through a program before it's displayed. If you have such an mailer I'd be interested if you could let me know of your setup.

t1utils A collection of simple Type 1 font manipulation programs.
t1utils is a collection of simple type-1 font manipulation programs. Together, they allow you to convert between PFA (ASCII) and PFB (binary) formats; disassemble PFA or PFB files into human-readable form; and reassemble the human-readable files into PFA or PFB format files. You can also extract font resources from a Macintosh font file (ATM/Laserwriter), or create a Macintosh Type 1 font file from a PFA or PFB font.
There are currently six programs:
t1ascii Converts PFB files to PFA format.
t1binary Converts PFA files to PFB format.
t1disasm Disassembles a Type 1 font (PFA or PFB format) into a raw, human-readable text form for subsequent hand editing, tweaking, hint fixing, etcetera...
t1asm Assembles a Type 1 font into PFA or PFB format from the human-readable form produced by t1disasm.
t1unmac Extracts POST resources from a Macintosh Type 1 font file (ATM/Laserwriter) into PFA or PFB format for use outside the Macintosh environment. The Macintosh file should be stored in MacBinary, AppleSingle, AppleDouble, or BinHex format, or as a raw resource fork. Note that t1unmac does not have to run on a Macintosh, but makes Macintosh Type 1 fonts available for use on Unix machines and PCs.
t1mac Creates a Macintosh Type 1 file from a PFA- or PFB-format Type 1 font. Writes the Macintosh file in MacBinary, AppleSingle, AppleDouble, or BinHex format, or as a raw resource fork. WARNING: This tool will not suffice to allow you to use the new font on a Macintosh, as Macintoshes cannot read raw Type 1 fonts. You will need to create a font suitcase containing bitmap fonts. If you do not already have such a suitcase for the font, T1utils will not help you create one.
This version of the t1utils programs has been maintained by Eddie Kohler <eddietwo@lcs.mit.edu> since version 1.5, based on the original code by I. Lee Hetherington. As such, it is a complete replacement for the t1utils Debian package, which is based on version 1.2 of I. Lee Hetherington's code.

tapiir A tool for real time audio delay and feedback effects.
Tapiir is a simple and flexible audio effects processor, inspired on the classical magnetic tape delay systems used since the early days of electro-acoustic music composition. It provides a graphical user interface consisting of six delay lines, or "taps", which can introduce an almost arbitrarily big or small delay to their inputs and can be feed back to each other.
A wide set of effects can be easily achieved by properly configuring and connecting the delay lines: complex echo patterns, resonances, filtering, etc. Delays, interconnections and gains can all be controlled in real time.
Tapiir requires the ALSA sound driver.
tar GNU tar
Tar is a program for packaging a set of files as a single archive in tar format. The function it performs is conceptually similar to cpio, and to things like pkzip in the DOS world.

tclex A lexical analyzer generator for Tcl
tcLex is a lexer (lexical analyzer) generator extension to Tcl. It is inspired by Unix and GNU lex and flex, which are "tools for generating programs that perform pattern-matching on text". tcLex is very similar to these programs, except it uses Tcl philosophy and syntax, whereas the others use their own syntax and are used in conjunction with the C language. People used to lex or flex should then feel familiar with tcLex. tcLex is a small extension (the Windows compiled version is about 20kb, and the source is about 150kb), because it extensively uses the Tcl library. However, the current doesn't use Tcl's regexp code anymore but a patched version is now included in tcLex, which makes it slightly bigger (by a few KB). tcLex should work with Tcl 8.0 and later. tcLex will NEVER work with earlier versions, because it uses Tcl 8.0's "object" system for performance. The most interesting features are:
* cross-platform support, thanks to Tcl. Though it has been developed on Windows and tested on Windows and Unix only, it should work on other platforms as long as Tcl exists on these platforms. Supported Tcl platforms are Windows 95/NT, Unix (Linux, Solaris...) and Macintosh. Other platforms are VMS, OS/2, NeXTStep, Amiga...
* unlike lex and flex, which only generate static lexers written in C and intended to be compiled, tcLex dynamically generates Tcl commands that can be used like other C commands or Tcl procedures from within Tcl scripts or C programs.
* it uses Tcl regular expressions. That means you don't have to learn another regexp language.
* it works with Tcl namespaces
* the generated lexer commands can be used in one pass or incrementally, because they maintain state information. That way, several instances of the same lexer (eg a HTML parser) can run at the same time in distinct call frames and maintain distinct states (local variables...). Lexer need not be specially designed in order to be used incrementally, the same lexer can transparently be used in one pass or incrementally. This feature is especially useful when processing text from a file or an Internet socket (Web pages for example), when data is not necessarily available at the beginning of the processing.
tclexpat Tcl interface to expat XML parser.
This package provides a Tcl interface to James Clark's expat library. It creates a Tcl package, called "expat", which defines a single new Tcl command "expat".

tcpd Wietse Venema's TCP wrapper utilities
Wietse Venema's network logger, also known as TCPD or LOG_TCP.
These programs log the client host name of incoming telnet, ftp, rsh, rlogin, finger etc. requests. Security options are: access control per host, domain and/or service; detection of host name spoofing or host address spoofing; booby traps to implement an early-warning system.
tcpdump A powerful tool for network monitoring and data acquisition
This program allows you to dump the traffic on a network. tcpdump is able to examine IPv4, ICMPv4, IPv6, ICMPv6, UDP, TCP, SNMP, AFS BGP, RIP, PIM, DVMRP, IGMP, SMB, OSPF, NFS and many other packet types.
It can be used to print out the headers of packets on a network interface, filter packets that match a certain expression. You can use this tool to track down network problems, to detect "ping attacks" or to monitor network activities. More information is at <URL: http://www.tcpdump.org/>
tcpflow TCP flow recorder
tcpflow is a program that captures data transmitted as part of TCP connections (flows), and stores the data in a way that is convenient for protocol analysis or debugging. A program like 'tcpdump' shows a summary of packets seen on the wire, but usually doesn't store the data that's actually being transmitted. In contrast, tcpflow reconstructs the actual data streams and stores each flow in a separate file for later analysis.
tcpflow understands sequence numbers and will correctly reconstruct data streams regardless of retransmissions or out-of-order delivery. However, it currently does not understand IP fragments; flows containing IP fragments will not be recorded properly.
tcpflow is based on the LBL Packet Capture Library and therefore supports the same rich filtering expressions that programs like 'tcpdump' support. tcpflow can also rebuild flows from data captured with 'tcpdump -w'.
tcpquota A dialout/masquerading monitoring package.
TCPQuota monitors and debit users depending on there online time (dialout). The program is made for those who have a local network with a server that also functions as a Internet gateway (among other things).
The server runs diald, for example, which does the actual dial-on-demand, and this package which debit each user, whether from the server or from a masqueraded host (program includes masquerade code).
All a user from inside the gateway/firewall have to do is run the command 'openhost', and the hostname and username is masqueraded and debited according to the time they spend calling out.
tcpreplay Tool to replay saved tcpdump files at arbitrary speeds
Tcpreplay is aimed at testing the performance of a NIDS by replaying real background network traffic in which to hide attacks. Tcpreplay allows you to control the speed at which the traffic is replayed, and can replay arbitrary tcpdump traces. Unlike programmatically-generated artificial traffic which doesn't exercise the application/protocol inspection that a NIDS performs, and doesn't reproduce the real-world anomalies that appear on production networks (asymmetric routes, traffic bursts/lulls, fragmentation, retransmissions, etc.), tcpreplay allows for exact replication of real traffic seen on real networks.
tcpslice extract pieces of and/or glue together tcpdump files
Tcpslice is a program for extracting portions of packet-trace files generated using tcpdump(l)'s -w flag. It can also be used to glue together several such files.
tcpspy Incoming and Outgoing TCP/IP connections logger.
tcpspy is an administrator's tool that logs information about incoming and outgoing TCP/IP connections. It's written in C and uses no libpcap functions, unlike tcpdump.
Connections are selected for logging with rules, similarly to the filter expressions accepted by tcpdump. The following information is logged: username, local address and port, remote address and port, and, optionally, the executable filename.
At present, only the IPv4 protocol is supported.
tcpstat network interface statistics reporting tool
tcpstat reports certain network interface statistics much like vmstat does for system statistics. tcpstat gets its information by either monitoring a specific interface, or by reading previously saved tcpdump data from a file.
tcptraceroute A traceroute implementation using TCP packets
The more traditional traceroute(8) sends out either UDP or ICMP ECHO packets with a TTL of one, and increments the TTL until the destination has been reached. By printing the gateways that generate ICMP time exceeded messages along the way, it is able to determine the path packets are taking to reach the destination.
The problem is that with the widespread use of firewalls on the modern Internet, many of the packets that traceroute(8) sends out end up being filtered, making it impossible to completely trace the path to the destination. However, in many cases, these firewalls will permit inbound TCP packets to specific ports that hosts sitting behind the firewall are listening for connections on. By sending out TCP SYN packets instead of UDP or ICMP ECHO packets, tcptraceroute is able to bypass the most common firewall filters.
tcputils Utilities for TCP programming in shell-scripts
This is a collection of programs to facilitate TCP programming in shell-scripts. There is also a small library which makes it somewhat easier to create TCP/IP sockets.

tex4ht LaTeX and TeX for Hypertext (HTML)
TeX4ht is a highly configurable TeX-based authoring system for producing hypertext. It interacts with TeX-based applications through style files and postprocessors, leaving the processing of the source files to the native TeX compiler. Consequently, TeX4ht can handle the features of TeX-based systems in general, and of LaTeX in particular.
TeX4ht can be used both for authoring HTML using TeX/LaTeX input files, or for converting existing TeX input files (in any format) into HTML, with (usually) only minor modifications.
You will need imagemagick suite of programs to convert from graphics in DVI files, as output by TeX (via postscript) to GIF, PNG or JPEG files. Alternatively, you could use ghostscript and programs from the netpbm package after adjusting TeX4ht's configuration.
texdoctk GUI for easier access of TeX package and program documentations
texdoctk is a GUI for easier access of a large part of the vast amount of package and program documentations and tutorials for TeX and its different derivatives (mainly LaTeX).
texi2html Convert Texinfo files to HTML
texi2html is a Perl script that converts Texinfo files to HTML.
The program takes Texinfo files (not info ones) and produces a set of HTML files. The quality of the output is close to the printed output and is much better than an info->HTML gateway.
Compared to the output of `makeinfo --html', texi2html's output is more customizable and (subjectively) produces better output by default.
texinfo Documentation system for on-line information and printed output
Texinfo is a documentation system that uses a single source file to produce both on-line information and printed output.
Using Texinfo, you can create a printed document with the normal features of a book, including chapters, sections, cross references, and indices. From the same Texinfo source file, you can create a menu-driven, on-line Info file with nodes, menus, cross references, and indices.
texmacs WYSIWYG emacs-ish mathematical text editor, using tex fonts
GNU TeXmacs is a free scientific text editor, which was both inspired by TeX and GNU Emacs. The editor allows you to write structured documents via a WYSIWYG (what-you-see-is-what-you-get) and user friendly interface. New styles may be created by the user. The program implements high-quality typesetting algorithms and TeX fonts, which help you to produce professionally looking documents.
The high typesetting quality still goes through for automatically generated formulas, which makes TeXmacs suitable as an interface for computer algebra systems. TeXmacs also supports the Guile/Scheme extension language, so that you may customize the interface and write your own extensions to the editor.
In the future, TeXmacs is planned to evolve towards a complete scientific office suite, with spreadsheet capacities, a technical drawing editor and a presentation mode.
See the TeXmacs home page http://www.texmacs.org.

It is able to use any type of link, like the original TI GRAPH-LINK (both black and grey cables), the homemade "$4 serial link", or the "$5 parallel link". It even supports the new TI GraphLink USB, using the tiglusb kernel module. See http://lpg.ticalc.org/.
With TiLP, you can transfer files from your PC to your Texas Instruments calculator, and vice-versa. You can also make a screen dump, a backup, transfer a backup to the calculator, or take control of your TI from your PC, or even install a new version of AMS on your calc !
You might be interested in the tidev-modules-source package which allows you to build a set of three kernel modules. These modules are three drivers for different link cables (serial, parallel, USB) which require running TiLP with root privileges. With these modules loaded and the appropriate rights on the device nodes, this won't be necessary.
time The GNU time command.
The `time' command runs another program, then displays information about the resources used by that program, collected by the system while the program was running. You can select which information is reported and the format in which it is shown, or have `time' save the information in a file instead of display it on the screen.
The resources that `time' can report on fall into the general categories of time, memory, I/O, and IPC calls.
The GNU version can format the output in arbitrary ways by using a printf-style format string to include various resource measurements.
timeout Run a command with a time limit.
timeout executes a command and imposes an elapsed time limit. When the time limit is reached, timeout sends a predefined signal to the target process.

tmpreaper Cleans up files in directories based on their age
This package provides a program that can be used to clean out temporary-file directories. It recursively searches the directory, refusing to chdir() across symlinks, and removes files that haven't been accessed in a user-specified amount of time. You can specify a set of files to protect from deletion with a shell pattern. It will not remove files owned by the process EUID that have the `w' bit clear, unless you ask it to, much like `rm -f'. `tmpreaper' will not remove symlinks, sockets, fifos, or special files unless given a command line option enabling it to.
WARNING: Please do not run `tmpreaper' on `/'. There are no protections against this written into the program, as that would prevent it from functioning the way you'd expect it to in a `chroot(8)' environment.
The daily tmpreaper run can be configured through /etc/tmpreaper.conf .

trustees Advanced permission management system for Linux.
The main goal of Linux trustees project is to create an advanced permission management system for linux. In fact, UNIX permission system is not suitable for solution of very common tasks.
E.g., let a system administrator wants to create a directory that available for some groups in write mode, for another groups - in read only. The files in the directory and subdirectories should inherits the parent's behavior, unless other is stated explicitly. Using standard UNIX (and Linux) security model it is generally speaking impossible to implement the situation when different groups have read/write and read/only permissions. This issue can be resolved by ext2-fs ACL project, but the problem is that nobody wants to copy mask or ACLs from parent directory to subdirectories either by hands or using special scripts.
Using the trustees, you can resolve this problems just typing [/device]/path:+group1:REBX
The solution proposed is mainly inspired by Novell Netware approach and Java security API.
Special objects (called trustees) can be bounded to every file or directory. Trustee object means that access to file or directory or directory with subdirectories is granted (or denied) to certain user or group (or all except user or group).
This package provides settrustee utility, which enables new privileges from trustee.conf.

tunnelv Encrypted network connection within a TCP/IP connection
Tunnel Vision creates a "virtual" TCP/IP network (VPN) between two Tunnel Vision-capable sites on the internet. It uses the strongest encryption that's actually useful (1024-bit RSA and 128-bit Blowfish) to protect your data along the way. This connection between two TV servers is called a "tunnel."
Tunnel Vision is usually used on a router or gateway machine. When someone on your network wants to send data to someone on the other side of the tunnel, it sends through the default gateway (the TV server) like it normally would. You configure the TV server to send data through the tunnel instead of just forwarding it onto the internet.
Tunnel Vision requires Linux 2.1.122 or higher with the ethertap and netlink devices.

txt2html Text to HTML converter.
txt2html is a Perl program that converts plain text to HTML.
It supports headings, lists, simple character markup, and hyperlinking, and is highly customizable. It recognizes some of the apparent structure of the source document (mostly whitespace and typographic layout), and attempts to mark that structure explicitly using HTML.
the purpose for this tool is to provide an easier way of converting existing text documents to HTML format. txt2html can also be used to aid in writing new HTML documents, but there are probably better ways of doing that.
txt2pdbdoc Convert plain text files to Palm DOC (for PalmOS) and back

uae-suid The Ubiquitous Amiga Emulator: Suid root binaries
UAE is a 100% software Amiga (500) hardware emulator. This package contains binaries of UAE with display modes that require root privileges (i.e. SVGA and X-DGA versions).
These binaries are often considered to be a little bit faster, however this very much depends on your hardware. I (and the upstream authors) DON'T RECOMMEND INSTALLING THESE BINARIES (for the usual security problems) unless you have good reasons for it.
uae The Ubiquitous Amiga Emulator: Base
UAE is a 100% software Amiga (500) hardware emulator. This is the base package including all support files and the most common binary of UAE for X.
NOTE: For "proper" use of UAE, you need some version of the Kickstart ROM, and some OS running on top of this (most likely some version of the Amiga OS). Both don't comply to the DFSG (to say the least) and must be obtained from other sources. There is information in the package docs how to obtain these if you are owner of an Amiga box.
However, there is a minimal free build-in Kickstart replacement, and at least some demo disks are reported to run with it.

ucblogo a dialect of lisp using turtle graphics famous for teaching kids.
This is the UC Berkeley implementation of logo written primarily by Daniel Van Blerkom, Brian Harvey, Michael Katz, and Douglas Orleans. This version of logo is featured in Brian Harvey's book _Computer_Science_Logo_Style, _Volume_1: _Symbolic_Computing_ (ISBN 0-262-58151-5). This version provides the following special features:
- Random-access arrays. - Variable number of inputs to user-defined procedures. - Mutators for list structure (dangerous). - Pause on error, and other improvements to error handling. - Comments and continuation lines; formatting is preserved when procedure definitions are saved or edited. - Terrapin-style tokenization (e.g., [2+3] is a list with one member) but LCSI-style syntax (no special forms except TO). The best of both worlds. - First-class instruction and expression templates. - Macros.
ucf Update Configuration File - preserve user changes in config files
Debian policy states that configuration files must preserve user changes during package upgrade. The easy way to achieve this behavior is to make the configuration file a `conffile', in which case dpkg handles the file specially during upgrades, prompting the user as needed.
This is appropriate only if it is possible to distribute a default version that will work for most installations, although some system administrators may choose to modify it. This implies that the default version will be part of the package distribution, and must not be modified by the maintainer scripts during installation (or at any other time).
This script attempts to provide conffile like handling for files that can not be labelled conffiles, are not shipped in a Debian package, but handled by the postinst instead. This script allows one to maintain files in /etc, preserving user changes and in general offering the same facilities while upgrading that dpkg normally provides for "conffiles".
Additionally, this script provides facilities for transitioning a file that had not been provided conffile like protection to come under this schema, and attempts to minimize questions asked at install time. Indeed, the transitioning facility is better than the one offered by dpkg while transitioning a file from a non-conffile to conffile status.

unison-gtk A file-synchronization tool for Unix and Windows - GTK interface
This package adds the optional GTK interface to the file synchronization tool 'unison'.
unison A file-synchronization tool for Unix and Windows
Unison is a file-synchronization tool for Unix and Windows, written in OCaml. It allows two replicas of a collection of files and directories to be stored on different hosts (or different disks on the same host), modified separately, and then brought up to date by propagating the changes in each replica to the other.
Unison offers several advantages over various synchronization methods such as CVS, Coda, rsync, Intellisync, etc. Unison can run on and synchronize between Windows and many UNIX platforms. Unison requires no root privileges, system access or kernel changes to function. Unison can synchronize changes to files and directories in both directions, on the same machine, or across a network using ssh or a direct socket connection.
Transfers are optimised using a version of the rsync protocol, making it ideal for slower links. Unison has a clear and precise specification, and is resilient to failure due to its careful handling of the replicas and its private structures.

vat LBNL audio conferencing tool over the internet.
The LBNL audio tool, vat, is a real-time, multi-party, multimedia application for audio conferencing over the Internet. Vat is based on the Draft Internet Standard Real-time Transport Protocol (RTP) developed by the IETF Audio/Video Transport working group. RTP is an application-level protocol implemented entirely within vat -- you need no special system enhancements to run RTP. Although vat can be run point-to-point using standard unicast IP addresses, it is primarily intended as a multi-party conferencing application. To make use of the conferencing capabilities, your system must support IP Multicast, and ideally, your network should be connected to the IP Multicast Backbone (MBone).
Vat provides only the audio portion of a multimedia conference; video, whiteboard, and session control tools are implemented as separate applications. Our video tool is called vic and our whiteboard tool wb, UCL developed the session directory tool sdr Other related applications include ISI's Multimedia Conference Control, mmcc, the Xerox PARC Network Video tool, nv and the INRIA Video-conferencing System, ivs.

vm A mail user agent for Emacs
VM (View Mail) is an Emacs subsystem that allows UNIX mail to be read and disposed of within Emacs. Commands exist to do the normal things expected of a mail user agent, such as generating replies, saving messages to folders, deleting messages and so on. There are other more advanced commands that do tasks like bursting and creating digests, message forwarding, and organizing message presentation according to various criteria. With smtpmail in modern emacsen, you do not need a MTA locally in order to use VM.
VM 6.x versions have problems with the library tm-vm from the Tiny Mime (TM) package, since that version was written for VM 5.X. Indeed, the problems seems to exist with semi as well.
This package comes (by default) bundled in with XEmacs.
vmnet A simple virtual networking program
This program has been written to implement virtual networking support for the Hercules S/390 simulator, but it is intentionally generic in its functionality, so any other virtual machine simulator/emulator program could potentially use it.
The function is quite simple: - The virtual machine simulator program starts VMnet and talks the SLIP protocol with it over stdin/out. - VMnet sets up a SLIP connection on the host system, talking over a pseudo-tty to the VMnet program. - Once things have been set up, VMnet simply copies the data streams between stdin/out and the SLIP psuedo-tty in both directions. Thus, the virtual machine has a direct SLIP connection with the host, without needing to worry about root privileges, pseudo-ttys, access rights, etc.
vnc-common Virtual network computing server software.

The Agenda VR is a handheld computer that runs Linux. VRFlash communicates with the Agenda's boot monitor (PMON) over a serial line to install new software on the device. The kernel and the root image can be upgraded this way.
vrfy Verify electronic mail addresses.
'vrfy' is a tool to verify e-mail addresses and mailing lists. In its simplest form it takes an address "user@domain", figures out the MX hosts for "domain", and issues the SMTP command VRFY at the primary MX host (optionally all), or at "domain" itself if no MX hosts exist. Without "domain" it goes to "localhost".
More complex capabilities are: * recursively expanding forward files or mailing lists, * detecting mail forwarding loops, * understanding full-blown RFC822 address specifications, * syntax checking that can be carried out either locally or remotely, * various options provided to exploit alternative protocol suites if necessary, and to print many forms of verbose output.
Obvious limitations exist (mostly due to a lousy VRFY command implementation on some hosts), but otherwise, it works pretty well.
vrms Virtual Richard M. Stallman

weex A non-interactive FTP client for updating web pages
Weex is an utility designed to automate the task of remotely maintaining a web page or other FTP archive. With weex, the maintainer of a web site or archive that must be administered through FTP interaction can largely ignore that process. The archive administrator simply creates a local directory that serves as an exact model for the off-site data. All modifications and direct interaction is done locally to this directory structure. When the administrator wishes to coordinate the data on the remote site with that of the local model directory, simply executing weex accomplishes this in the most bandwidth-efficient fashion by only transferring files that need updating. The program will create or remove (!) files or directories as necessary to accurately establish the local model on the remote server.

wget retrieves files from the web
Wget is a network utility to retrieve files from the Web using http and ftp, the two most widely used Internet protocols. It works non-interactively, so it will work in the background, after having logged off. The program supports recursive retrieval of web-authoring pages as well as ftp sites -- you can use wget to make mirrors of archives and home pages or to travel the Web like a WWW robot.
Wget works particularly well with slow or unstable connections by continuing to retrieve a document until the document is fully downloaded. Re-getting files from where it left off works on servers (both http and ftp) that support it. Both http and ftp retrievals can be time stamped, so wget can see if the remote file has changed since the last retrieval and automatically retrieve the new version if it has.
Wget supports proxy servers; this can lighten the network load, speed up retrieval, and provide access behind firewalls.

whereami Automatically reconfigure your (laptop) system for a new location
whereami is a set of useful scripts and a coordinating system for automatically re-locating your computer within the current (network) environment.
Typically, you would use whereami to automatically detect and re-configure your laptop when you move between a variety of diverse networks and/or docking environments.
Although whereami will work best if all of your networks assign addresses through dhcp, this is not a pre-requisite and the system allows any technique to be used to ascertain the new location with as little ongoing user intervention as possible.
Having ascertained the correct location, whereami will run appropriate (user-configured) scripts to adjust the laptop operation to suit the current environment.
See http://debiana.net/whereami/ for more information. You may also get useful assistance from the debian-laptop mailing list, which is frequented by several of the contributors.
whichman Fault tolerant search utilities: whichman, ftff, ftwhich.

Example: whichman netwhat This finds netstat.8: /usr/share/man/man8/netstat.8
ftff searches the directory tree. This is a case in-sensitive and fault tolerant way of 'find . -name xxxx -print'.
ftwhich finds files which are in one of the directories in your PATH and uses a fault tolerant search algorithm.

wmaker-usersguide-ps Window Maker Users' Guide -- postscript format
This guide describes the use of Window Maker, an X11 window manager. It's for an old version of Window Maker, namely 0.20.2, but it's still an accurate introduction to the general operation of this window manager.
wmaker NeXTSTEP-like window manager for X
Written by Alfredo Kojima (http://www.inf.ufrgs.br/~kojima) almost from scratch, resembles the NeXTStep look very closely, and it's now an official GNU project. Window Maker is not overloaded with features, and it's easier to configure than most other window managers. Its final goal is to produce a window manager that doesn't require editing of configuration files. Window Maker is fast and doesn't require tons of memory to run.
wmakerconf-data Datafile for wmakerconf, a configuration tool for Window Maker
This contains the necessary information that enables wmakerconf to generate a configuration file for Window Maker.

wn Secure and efficient http server with advanced features.
WN is a server for the Hypertext Transfer Protocol (HTTP/1.1). Its primary design goals are security and functionality usually available only with complex CGI scripts without the necessity of writing or using these scripts. This includes extensive security checks, full text searching and conditionally served text.
Despite this extensive functionality the WN executable is substantially smaller than the CERN or NCSA servers. Both a stand-alone daemon and a version intended for use under inetd are provided. The inetd version is designed to minimize the use of system resources and it is appropriate for moderate or lightly loaded servers which cannot be totally dedicated to Web serving.
WN's security model is based on the use of a small flat database in each directory with information about the files in that directory. Fields associated with a file include its title, and may include keywords, expiration date and any user defined fields like author or document id. Unlike other servers, the default action for WN is to deny access to a file. A file can only be served if explicit permission to do so has been granted by entering it in this database.

worklog Keep Track of Time worked on Projects
From the author: Worklog is a program that helps you keep track of your time. I wrote this program because I have several projects that require me to keep a timesheet. I sometimes spend 5 minutes here and there doing miscellaneous administrative tasks. Rather than invoke an editor on a timesheet file for every little segment of my time spent doing these tasks, I wanted to leave a clock running and indicate with one or two keystrokes the onset or change of any given task. Worklog is a simple ncurses based program to do just that.

x10-automate GUI interface for x10 power line control utility
Tk (wish) based GUI for the "x10" home-control program.
With this program you can attach icons to your various X10 devices and see them displayed on a toolbar as well as a floor plan of your own. You can also read, write and edit programs to download to the CP-290 controller.
x10 Operate X-10 electrical power control modules.
X-10 modules are devices that plug into an electrical outlet and allow you to remotely control the power to a lamp or an appliance that is plugged into them. There are also X-10 modules that install in place of wall switches to control lights, and there's one that can be used to set back a thermostat.
This program commands up to 256 X-10 modules via a CP-290 serial-interface controller plugged into any serial port of your system. You can use it to automate your home! It's also commonly used to provide control over computers and other devices that might need to be powered up or down via a timed command or remote control. The CP-290 controller stores 128 clock-driven events that it will execute when your computer is turned off, so you can even program your computer to turn itself on at a particular time.
You can buy the modules and manual controllers in Radio Shack stores, but the CP-290 serial-interface controller used to command them using your Debian system is slightly harder to find. Instructions on where to order one are included in the documentation of this package.
x11iraf X utilities for IRAF (Image Reduction Analysis Facility)

WARNING: ximtool requires 8-bit mode or it will fail to start.
x2vnc A dual-screen hack - link a MS-Windows and X display
This program merges the capabilities of x2x and vncviewer. It will allow a machine with an X display and a machine with a VNC server running on it's main screen to act as if they were two displays connected to one machine. When you move your mouse pointer off the screen in a direction of your choosing, the pointer will appear on the other screen instead.
x2x Link two X displays together, simulating a multiheaded display
x2x joins a pair of X displays together, as if they were a single multiheaded display. The pointer can be warped between displays, or, depending on how you start x2x, can slide from one display to the other when it runs off the edge of the screen. Keyboard focus also moves between displays in the way you'd expect, and the X selection propagates around. At least one of the displays involved (specifically, the one being controlled remotely) must support the XTEST extension. (The servers shipped by Debian support this.)
x2x is useful when you have two displays on the same desk, as you can use a single keyboard and mouse to control both. If you want to propagate your selections between displays which are not sharing a desk, you might be more interested in the package propsel. Propsel does not link the displays' keyboard and mouse, which would be confusing in some cases, and can propagate between up to 8 displays, whereas x2x can handle only two at a time.
x3270-htmldoc HTML documentation for the x3270 package.
This packages provides the documentation (which is already contained in the x3270 package as standard ascii files) in HTML form.
x3270 X11 program for telnet sessions to IBM mainframes.
x3270 opens a telnet connection to an IBM mainframe host in an X11 window. It can also connect to an IBM AS/400 as a 5250 terminal using the AS/400's 3270 emulation. The window created by x3270 can use its own font for displaying characters, so it is a fairly accurate representation of an IBM 3278 or 3279.
x3270 is similar to tn3270(1) and c3270(1) except that it is X-based, not curses-based.
x3270 implements RFCs 2355 (TN3270E), 1576 (TN3270), and 1646 (LU name selection), and supports IND$FILE file transfer.
You will need to install x3270-fonts locally, or on your font-server - they are required.
xa+cv XCIN Anywhere +CV wrapper for Chinese input in X applications
XA+CV (XCIN Anywhere +CV) is a small X library wrapper for XCIN. Users may use this nifty tool to input and display Chinese (both Big5 and GB) characters in almost any X applications (e.g. Netscape 4.x), especially for those that do not support the XIM protocol.

xalf Provides feed back while loading X applications
Xalf can reliably detect if newly mapped windows are belonging to a particular launched application. It does this by overloading the Xlib function XMapWindow with a version that signals the tracking xalf process.
Xalf provides (currently) four different types as "indicators", described below.
Invisible Window:
Xalf creates an invisible window, to be used in conjunction with a standard task pager like Gnomes tasklist_applet or the KDE Taskbar. The name of the window is the application name within parenthesis. The small window icon (KWM_WIN_ICON) is set to a small hourglass. This indicator is default.
Splash screen:
An generic splashscreen is displayed during application launch.
Mouse cursor change:
Xalf adds an hourglass symbol to the mousecursor for the root window and the Gnome panel. Note that the cursor is not changed for the Gnome foot-menu windows.
Animated star:
An animated indicator resembling the look of that on SGI/Irix machines (a kind of yellow star blinking while loading a program).

xanim-modules Installer for xanim binary-only modules
This package provides access to the binary modules needed for xanim to decode the following graphic compression schemes:
Radius Cinepak 24 bits Color (Quicktime, AVI) Radius Cinepak 8 bits Gray (Quicktime, AVI) Creative CYUV (AVI) CCITT H.261 (AVI) CCITT H.263 (not Intel I263) (AVI) Intel Indeo 3.1 (Quicktime, AVI) Intel Indeo 3.2 (Quicktime, AVI) Intel Ray YUV (Quicktime, AVI) Intel Indeo 4.1 (Quicktime, AVI) Intel Indeo 5.0 (Quicktime, AVI)
You will need an Internet connection to download these modules from the author's FTP site; Debian's permission to distribute these modules is so restricted that this is the only reasonable way to handle the situation.
The author only provides binaries for Intel (glibc 2.1), Alpha and PowerPC. Users of other architectures will find this package extremely useless.

xfaces Displays an image for each piece of mail in your mailbox.
XFaces is a program that will display an image for each piece of mail in your mail box. This lets you know at a glance who you have mail from. XFaces starts out (when you have no mail) looking like a color xbiff. As you receive mail XFaces becomes a column of mail images. Some of XFaces features:
- Both mono and color images.
- Optional Shaped window support with both xpm and xbm.
- Sound support using the NetAudio protocol. The NetAudio server currently supports Sun's SparcStation (SunOS 4.1.X and Solaris 2.2), SGI's Indigo and NCD MCX X terminals running NCDware 3.1 or later.
- Face images can be "compressed" so that each image will only show up once on your display. This way, if you receive 30 messages from one user, list or whatever the image will only show up once.
- You can use regular expressions to search any headers to choose images and sounds or ignore that mail message completely. This lets you specify an image/sound for mail that comes from a mailing list or ignore mail that you have already seen but left in your system mailbox.
- Compatibility support for Rich Burridge's faces program. This includes the ability to run user command to generate the image list.
- Support for POP mailboxes.
- XFaces can kick off shell commands based upon mailbox contents. You could have yourself paged when a high priority item needs your attention.
- XFaces can run external filters to convert images into Xpm so that image formats that XFaces does not understand can be used.
- The annotations for mail items include username, hostname, count, user@host, the contents of any header.

xfm X file and application manager
Xfm is an file and application manager program for the X Window System, based on the Xaw3d widget set. It provides virtually all of the features that you would expect in a file manager; move around your directory tree in multiple windows, move, copy or delete files, and launch programs with simple mouse operations. Directory displays are updated automatically in regular intervals when the contents of the directory change. The integrated application manager provides a kind of "shelf" onto which you can place your favorite applications, as well as the files and directories you are currently working with. It also allows you to access different groups of applications and files. User-definable file types let you specify a command to be executed when double-clicking on a file or dropping other files onto it. Last not least, xfm can automatically mount and unmount special devices like floppies as you open and close the corresponding directories (mount points).
xfmail XForms mail user agent. Is transitioning into Archimedes currently.
About XFMail:
It is partially compatible with mh style mailboxes but does not require any mh tools to be installed on the system. You can browse your mh folders and messages using XFMail. It has a user-friendly interface and online help to make it easy to use. It implements most of the mail functionality in one program and it does not require any additional tools.
NOTE: XFMail is transitioning into Archimedes. Once Archimedes is usable XFMail won't be supported any further. Archimedes uses GTK+ and its copyright is GPL. See /usr/share/doc/xfmail/README.gz and http://archimedes.sourceforge.net.
I will package Archimedes for Debian when it has stabilized some more.

xfree86-common X Window System (XFree86) infrastructure
xfree86-common contains the filesystem infrastructure required for further installation of the X Window System in any configuration.
Those wishing an X server only (with remote font services and clients) will also require the xserver-common package and an X server package (most likely xserver-xfree86).
The counterpart to the above configuration is a machine with the X libraries (the xlibs package), xbase-clients, a window manager, some X font packages, and likely many more client packages.
Those who desire a standalone X workstation (and/or are fuzzy on the concepts of X servers and X clients) will require both of the above sets of packages. For convenience, the "x-window-system" metapackage will include everything that is required for a standalone X workstation.
A number of terms are used to refer to the X Window System, including "X", "X Version 11", "X11", "X11R6", and "X11R6.4". The version of X used in Debian is derived from the version released by the XFree86 Project, Inc., and is thus often also referred to as "XFree86". All of the preceding quoted terms are functionally interchangeable in a Debian system.
Still confused? Install this package and then read the files in /usr/share/doc/xfree86-common/ for assistance.

xfs-xtt is a daemon that listens on a network port and serves X fonts to X servers (and thus to X clients). All X servers have the ability to serve locally installed fonts for themselves, but xfs makes it possible to offload that job from the X server, and/or have a central repository of fonts on a networked machine running xfs so that all the machines running X servers on a network do not require their own set of fonts. xfs may also be invoked by users to, for instance, make available X fonts in user accounts that are not available to the X server or to an already running system xfs-xtt.
xfs X font server
xfs is a daemon that listens on a network port and serves X fonts to X servers (and thus to X clients). All X servers have the ability to serve locally installed fonts for themselves, but xfs makes it possible to offload that job from the X server, and/or have a central repository of fonts on a networked machine running xfs so that all the machines running X servers on a network do not require their own set of fonts. xfs may also be invoked by users to, for instance, make available X fonts in user accounts that are not available to the X server or to an already running system xfs.
xfsdump Administrative utilities for the XFS filesystem
The xfsdump package contains xfsdump, xfsrestore and a number of other administrative utilities for managing XFS filesystems.
xfsdump examines files in a filesystem, determines which need to be backed up, and copies those files to a specified disk, tape or other storage medium. It uses XFS-specific directives for optimizing the dump of an XFS filesystem, and also knows how to backup XFS extended attributes. Backups created with xfsdump are "endian safe" and can thus be transfered between Linux machines of different architectures and also between IRIX machines.
xfsrestore performs the inverse function of xfsdump; it can restore a full backup of a filesystem. Subsequent incremental backups can then be layered on top of the full backup. Single files and directory subtrees may be restored from full or partial backups.
xfslibs-dev XFS filesystem-specific static libraries and headers.
xfslibs-dev contains the libraries and header files needed to develop XFS filesystem-specific programs.
xfsprogs-bf A stripped-down versions of xfsprogs, for boot-floppies
This package is an xfsprogs package built for a reduced size, so that it can help to save space on installation boot-floppies.
Don't attempt to install this package, it has no support for a couple of features you surely want. Anyway it should refuse to install.
xfsprogs Utilities for managing the XFS filesystem
A set of commands to use the XFS filesystem, including mkfs.xfs.
XFS is a high performance journaling filesystem which originated on the SGI IRIX platform. It is completely multi-threaded, can support large files and large filesystems, extended attributes, variable block sizes, is extent based, and makes extensive use of Btrees (directories, extents, free space) to aid both performance and scalability.
Refer to the documentation at http://oss.sgi.com/projects/xfs/ for complete details. This implementation is on-disk compatible with the IRIX version of XFS.
xfstt TrueType Font Server for X11
xfstt means "X11 Font Server for TT fonts". TT fonts are generally regarded to be the best scalable fonts for displays.

This server will allow X11 applications to use the exact same fonts as the TrueType fonts used on most Windows Machines. NB: This package contains NO FONTS. They MUST be obtained separately
xftp Athena X interface to ftp.
xftp is a X ftp interface. It allows retrieval or transmission of selected files and directory trees.
xfwp X firewall proxy server
The X firewall proxy is an application layer gateway proxy that may be run on a network firewall host to forward X traffic across the firewall. Used in conjunction with the X server Security extension and authorization checking, xfwp constitutes a safe, simple, and reliable mechanism both to hide the addresses of X servers located on an intranet and to enforce a server connection policy. Xfwp cannot protect against mischief originating on an intranet; however, when properly configured it can guarantee that only trusted clients originating on authorized external Internet hosts will be allowed inbound access to local X servers.

xgospel an Internet Go client
xgospel is a client for playing the game of Go (Weiqi, Baduk) on the Internet Go Server (IGS). Unfortunately, it is somewhat lacking with respect to connecting to other Go servers on the internet, playing Go between two computers, or editing SGF files. You should probably install cgoban for these purposes. However, if you intend to play on IGS frequently, xgospel is the perfect choice for you.
xgraph Plotting program, reads stdin, allows interactive zooming

ximian-setup-tools Cross-platform configuration utilities.
The Ximian Setup Tools are a set of cross-platform configuration utilities for Linux and other Unices. Internally they are divided in frontends and backends. The frontend knows nothing about the underlying system and provides the same user interface across the different types of systems. The backend knows how to read and write configuration information. The Ximian Setup Tools do not impose a new database on the system, they work with the default configuration files so that configuration can still be done by hand or by other tools.

This package contains an additional front end, aaxine, which runs even on the console. aaxine uses aalib to render ASCII art video, or you can tell it to use a framebuffer device. This is more a proof of concept, but you can use it to watch DVDs on your old vt100 terminal, of course. ;-)
Most DVDs on the market today are play-protected by the Content Scrambling System (CSS). Xine does not provide any code to descramble those DVDs, because of legal uncertainties. Have a look at /usr/share/doc/xine-ui/README.Debian for more information!

xlibmesa3-dbg XFree86 version of Mesa 3D graphics library (unstripped)
This package is useful to provide a backtrace with symbol names in a debugger; this facilitates interpretation of core dumps, and aids in finding logic errors in programs using this library (or the library itself). The library is installed in /usr/lib/debug and can be used by placing that directory in the LD_LIBRARY_PATH environment variable when the code to be debugged is executed.
Non-programmers will likely have little use for this package. See the xlibmesa3 package for further information.
xlibmesa3 XFree86 version of Mesa 3D graphics library
Mesa is a 3D graphics library which presents an API intended to be compatible with OpenGL. XFree86 maintains its own version of the Mesa library (which is regularly resynchronized with the official one) to permit development of the XFree86 X server's Direct Rendering Infrastructure (DRI), which makes the 3D acceleration features of many modern video cards available to X client programmers.
Chipset-specific DRI modules, if available for your machine architecture, are provided in this package. (Unlike the modules in the xserver-xfree86 package, the DRI modules are loaded by the Mesa library, not by the X server itself.)
xlibs-dbg X Window System client libraries (unstripped)
This package is useful to provide a backtrace with symbol names in a debugger; this facilitates interpretation of core dumps, and aids in finding logic errors in programs using the libraries in this package (or the libraries themselves). The library is installed in /usr/X11R6/lib/debug and can be used by placing that directory in the LD_LIBRARY_PATH environment variable when the code to be debugged is executed.
Non-programmers will likely have little use for this package. See the xlibs package for more information.
xlibs-dev X Window System client library development files
xlibs-dev provides static versions of the libraries provided in xlibs, as well as several libraries that do not exist in shared object form for various reasons (such as the fact that their APIs have not stabilized, or that they are deprecated). Header files and manual pages are also provided.
The libraries available only in static form include: - libFS - libXau - libXdmcp - libXfont - libXfontcache - libXinerama - libXss - libXv - libXxf86dga - libXxf86misc - libXxf86rush - libXxf86vm - libfntstubs - liboldX - libxf86config - libxkbfile - libxkbui

The libraries available in PIC archive form include: - libXv - libXxf86dga - libXxf86vm
xlibs X Window System client libraries
The X libraries are an interface between X client programs and the hardware-oriented X servers, and consist of routines to read input from the keyboard and pointer, draw on the screen, etc., in an abstract manner that is independent of the particular characteristics of the hardware. The X libraries, and the programs that use them, communicate with X servers by means of the X protocol.
libX11 (a.k.a. Xlib) provides the low-level functionality, dealing mostly with the wire protocol and in terms of basic operations such as opening and closing the X protocol connection, creating graphics contexts, drawing graphics primitives such as lines, arcs, and glyphs, handling events, and so forth.
libXpm, the X pixmap library, is a set of routines used to store and retrieve X pixmaps (a data structure comprising a rectangular array of pixels) from files; the xpm file format is an extension of the monochrome bitmap file format in the X11 specification. (Traditionally, libXpm was maintained and distributed separately from the X Window System, but XFree86 has absorbed this library).
libXt, the X Toolkit Intrinsics, is an abstract widget library upon which graphical widget libraries (such as Athena and LessTif) may be developed; the Intrinsics provide a number of useful interfaces to X conventions and protocols, in many cases reducing a long series of Xlib calls to just a couple of Xt calls.
libXmu is a set of miscellaneous utility functions useful to client programmers.
libXmuu is a very small set of miscellaneous utility functions extracted from Xmu, Xt, and Xaw, for clients that need the occasional useful function from these libraries but do not require the toolkit overhead. To use libXmuu, simply include the headers for the other libraries in the client and link against Xmuu instead of Xmu, Xt, and Xaw. Needless to say, if the client uses functions from Xmu, Xt, or Xaw that are not present in Xmuu, it will fail to link.
The remainder of the libraries in this package implement the client side of various X protocol extensions: - libICE, the Inter-Client Exchange extension; - libPEX5, PEX, a 3D graphics extension now superseded by Mesa/OpenGL; - libSM, the Session Management extension; - libXIE, the X Image Extension; - libXext, a collection of several commonly-used extensions; - libXft, a FreeType-based font rendering extension; - libXi, the X Input extension; - libXp, the X Printing extension; and - libXrender, an extension for digital image composition; - libXtst, the X Testing extension.
xlibs also contains the XKB keyboard parameter files, locale data, and a set of bitmap and pixmap image files commonly used by X clients.

xmbase-grok Graphical Resource Organizer Kit
xmbase-grok, formerly just called "grok", is a simple database manager and UI builder that can -
* keep phone and address lists (like a rolodex) * store phone call logs * keep todo lists * manage any other database after simple GUI-driven customization * customized data export, HTML export built in
More precisely, grok is a program for displaying and editing strings arranged in a grid of rows and columns. Each row is presented as a "card" consisting of multiple columns, or "fields", that allow data entry. The presentation of the data is programmable; a user interface builder that allows the user to arrange fields on a card graphically is part of grok. Grok also supports a simple language that allows sophisticated queries and data retrieval. Grok comes with the above examples and a few others as pre-built applications.
Grok is not a general-purpose database program. It was designed for small applications typical for desktop accessories. If you attempt to run your major airline reservation system or your space shuttle project with it, you are guaranteed to be disappointed.

After you've collected everything, ladders may appear. To finish the level you've got to exit through the top of the screen. If an enemy falls into a dug brick, he is stunned for a while. If the brick fills in with him in it, he is killed, and he will reappear at the top of the screen.
This version has a level editor for designing your own levels, and a graphics editor for drawing your own artwork.
xscorch Clone of Scorched Earth
Xscorch is a clone of the classic DOS game, "Scorched Earth". The basic goal is to annihilate enemy tanks using overpowered guns :). Basically, you buy weapons, you target the enemy by adjusting the angle of your turret and firing power, and you hope to destroy their tank before they destroy yours.
xscreensaver-gl GL(Mesa) screenhacks for xscreensaver
These are some extra hacks for xscreensaver that use the Mesa OpenGL-compatible library. They are included as an extra package so the base package doesn't require Mesa. In addition, these hacks function nicely as GL demos for people who want to try out hardware accelerated 3D with XFree86 4.x
xscreensaver-gnome GNOME binaries for xscreensaver
This package contains the GNOME enabled xscreensaver-demo and related files. To be useful, it requires the xscreensaver package to be installed.
xscreensaver-nognome Gtk only binaries for xscreensaver
This package contains the Gtk only xscreensaver-demo for people who do not want to install the whole of GNOME to use xscreensaver. To be useful, it requires the xscreensaver package to be installed.
xscreensaver Automatic screensaver for X
The purpose of xscreensaver is to display pretty pictures on your screen when it is not in use, in keeping with the philosophy that unattended monitors should always be doing something interesting, just like they do in the movies.
The benefit that this program has over the combination of the xlock and xautolock programs is the ease with which new graphics hacks can be installed: you don't need to recompile this program to add a new display mode, you just change some resource settings. Any program which can be invoked in such a way that it draws on the root window of the screen can now be used as a screensaver without modification. The programs that are being run as screensavers don't need to have any special knowledge about what it means to be a screensaver.
xsel More than just cat for the X selection.
XSel is a command-line program for getting and setting the contents of the X selection. Normally this is only accessible by manually highlighting information and pasting it with the middle mouse button.
xserver-common files and utilities common to all X servers
The X server is the hardware interface of the X Window System. Its job is to communicate with video display and input devices, and present them in a standardized, abstract fashion via the X protocol to X clients (X-based programs). The X server largely relieves programs of having to know or care about the details of the hardware with which they are interacting (such things as 32-bit versus 8-bit color, the layout of the keyboard, how many buttons the mouse has, etc.). The catch is that the X server must itself know the technical specifications of the graphics hardware and monitor, the keyboard layout, the protocol used by the mouse, and so forth.
X servers either need fonts installed on the local host, or need to know of a remote host that provides font services (with xfs, for instance). The former means that font packages are mandatory. The latter means that font packages may be gratuitous. To err on the side of caution, install at least the xfonts-base, xfonts-100dpi or xfonts-75dpi, and xfonts-scalable packages.

xsitecopy A program for managing a WWW site via FTP, DAV or HTTP(GNOME version)
sitecopy is for copying locally stored websites to remote ftp servers. With a single command, the program will synchronize a set of local files to a remote server by performing uploads and remote deletes as required. The aim is to remove the hassle of uploading and deleting individual files using an FTP client. sitecopy will also optionally try to spot files you move locally, and move them remotely.
sitecopy is designed to not care about what is actually on the remote server - it simply keeps a record of what it THINKS is in on the remote server, and works from that.
This version is the GNOME frontend to sitecopy.

xstarfish X wallpaper generator.
XStarfish generates colourful, tiled images for your background using random numbers fed through mathematical functions. It does not use source image files, so it can generate its images nearly forever without running out of material.
xsu Allow users to run commands as root, after prompting for password.
xsu is an interface for the command `su - username -c command` in Gnome. When the user executes xsu, he/she will be prompted for a command, a username and a password. If the username and password are correct xsu will execute the command as the entered user. So if the username was root, then the command will be executed as root.
Of course it's also possible to predefine the username and the command by using the [-u,--username] and [-c,--command] arguments at the command line of xsu. This can be very useful when using xsu in for example gmenu or the GNOME panel.
* Security Gnome Xsu 2.0 uses the standard su binary to gain it's root access. This way, all security issues should be solved.
The security of all older xsu versions was very bad. With xsu version 0.1.0 the use of a pipe to a secured non-Gnome SUID application was introduced. This has been replaced with a special type of pipe to the standard GNU su application from the 'login' package.

xteddy a cuddly teddy bear (or other image) for your X desktop
Normally, xteddy just sits around doing nothing. After all, that's what teddy bears are for. Look at him, talk to him, place heavy windows on top of him, zap him around until he becomes dizzy, do what you like; he will always be your true (albeit virtual) friend. Now you can load other pixmaps than the nice teddy, too.

xtide-data Harmonics data for xtide
XTide is a package that provides tide and current predictions in a wide variety of formats. Graphs, text listings, and calendars can be generated, or a tide clock can be provided on your desktop.
This package provides the harmonics data used by the xtide package to display tidal information for most parts of the world. The data are packaged separately from xtide because they may be updated separately.
Data from Japan and the Netherlands were omitted from the upstream harmonics file because of restrictions on commercial use.
xtide provides tide and current predictions
XTide is a package that provides tide and current predictions in a wide variety of formats. Graphs, text listings, and calendars can be generated, or a tide clock can be provided on your desktop.
XTide can work with the X window system, plain text terminals, or the web. This is accomplished with three separate programs: the interactive interface (xtide), the non-interactive or command line interface (tide), and the web interface (xttpd).
The algorithm that XTide uses to predict tides is the one used by the National Ocean Service in the U.S. It is significantly more accurate than the simple tide clocks that can be bought in novelty stores. However, it takes more to predict tides accurately than just a spiffy algorithm -- you also need data for every location for which you want to predict tides. This package provide a sample data set for only one location so you can try out the package, but anything useful requires the data packaged in the xtide-data package (or downloaded from the XTide ftp site).

xtrs emulator for TRS-80 Model I/III/4/4P computers
xtrs is an X-based emulator for the Tandy/Radio Shack line of Zilog Z-80-based microcomputers popular in the late 1970's and early 1980's. It features cassette, floppy, and hard drive emulation, timer interrupt emulation, file import and export from the host operating system, support for most of the undocumented Z-80 instructions, and a built-in debugger. Real floppy drives can be used, and, if an OSS-compatible sound driver is available, application-based sound can be played and real cassettes read and written directly through the sound card or via WAVE files. Several hi-res graphics cards are emulated and, in Model 4/4P mode, mice are supported. There is also real-time clock, sound card, serial port, joystick, and CPU clock speedup emulation.
xtrs requires ROM images from the original machines. The ROMs are copyrighted by Radio Shack and are not freely licensed. (Exception: in Model 4P mode, a freely licensed boot ROM included with this package can be used to boot a Model 4 operating system from a diskette image.) Instructions are provided for retrieval of TRS-80 ROM images by those who may legally use them.

Installation of an rsh or ssh daemon (server) is necessary if rstartd is to be used, and installation of an rsh or ssh client is necessary if rstart is to be used.
xvfb virtual framebuffer X server
xvfb provides an X server that can run on machines with no display hardware and no physical input devices. It emulates a dumb framebuffer using virtual memory. The primary use of this server was intended to be server testing, but other novel uses for it have been found, including testing clients against unusual depths and screen configurations, doing batch processing with Xvfb as a background rendering engine, load testing, as an aid to porting the X server to a new platform, and providing an unobtrusive way to run applications that don't really need an X server but insist on having one anyway.
This package also contains a convenience script called xvfb-run which simplifies the automated execution of X clients in a virtual server environment. This convenience script requires the use of the xauth program from xbase-clients, hence the suggestion of xbase-clients.
xvier a "Four in a row" game

xvkbd software virtual keyboard for X11
xvkbd is a virtual (graphical) keyboard program for X Window System which provides facility to enter characters onto other clients (softwares) by clicking on a keyboard displayed on the screen. This may be used for systems without a hardware keyboard such as kiosk terminals or handheld devices. This program also has facility to send characters specified as the command line option to another client.
xvmount Small graphical utility for mounting devices by users.
Users can mount predefined devices with selected permissions from a simple OpenLook based graphical interface. Xvmount recognizes the filesystem types minix, ext, ext2, msdos, vfat, xiafs, and iso9660/High Sierra.
xvncviewer Virtual network computing client software for X.
VNC stands for Virtual Network Computing. It is, in essence, a remote display system which allows you to view a computing `desktop' environment not only on the machine where it is running, but from anywhere on the Internet and from a wide variety of machine architectures.
It is implemented in a client/server model. This package provides a client for X, with this you can connect to a vncserver somewhere in the network and display its content in a window. There are vncserver available for X and for Win95/NT.
This package is an enhanced version of VNC including TightVNC allowing it to be optimized to work over slow network connections such as low-speed modem links so you can work remotely almost in real time in most environments.
xvt X terminal-emulator similar to xterm, but smaller
xvt is an X terminal-emulator that is designed to be more or less compatible with xterm while using much less swap space. It is mainly intended for use at sites which use large numbers of X terminals but may also be useful on single workstations that are short of memory. The main way that xvt achieves its small size is by avoiding the use of the X toolkit.
If you are looking for a more featureful terminal-emulator than xvt, but one which still uses less swap space than xterm, consider rxvt.
Features of xterm which xvt does not support include:
- Tektronix 4014 emulation - Session logging - Pop-up menus. The only one of xterm's popup menu commands that is provided in xvt is displaying and hiding of the scrollbar and this is done simply by pressing any mouse key in the window with the CONTROL key held down. - Toolkit style configurability. In particular, xvt does not allow the user to remap the mouse or keyboard keys.
Features which are supported include:
- VT100 emulation. Most of the main escape sequences are supported -- certainly all those used by the standard screen based UNIX applications. - Lines that scroll off the top of the window are saved and can be scrolled back with a scrollbar. - Text selection and insertion including double and triple click for words and lines.
xwatch monitor logfiles and display new logs in an X window.
The displayed logs are colour-coded according to severity. Basically, you get to see what's going on _during_ say a break-in, instead of having to check the logfiles after the damage is done. Of course, you need to have the syslog daemons configured right, so that the logfiles are created. Xwatch reads options from its commandline as well as from a app-defaults resource file.
XWatch requires the non-free XForms libraries to run.
xwave Wave sound file editor
XWave can load and edit several sound files at the same time. You can cut and paste sections from one file to an other. It also includes some effects like: re-sampling, echo, volume change, revert, etc...
xwhois RFC954 whois client for the X Window System
This package provides a small and fast query tool for the RFC954 whois service, built using the gtk library for the X Window System.
xwit a collection of simple routines to call some X11 functions
xwit is a collection of simple routines to call some X11 functions that don't already have any utility commands built around them. The reasoning behind this is that loosely every X function should be accessible from a shell script.
For example, XWarpPointer() will move the X pointer, but no utility program exists to do so on those rare occasions when you could really use it. xwit will also resize, iconify, pop, and move windows given by name or id, change an icon, title or name, set the screen saver going, and change individual key autorepeat settings, etc.
xwpe Programming environment and editor for console and X11
Xwpe is an integrated programming and debugging environment similar to Borland's Turbo C and Pascal family. It has many features including the ability to start many compilers, linkers and debuggers from a menu-based interface or using keystrokes.
Syntax highlighting is included for many programming languages, and any compiler and debugger can easily be used by the program. When compiling from within xwpe, errors in the source code can be jumped to and swiftly corrected. Variables and the stack can be easily displayed. Setting and unsetting breakpoints can be done directly within the source code.
Although it is designed to be a tool for programmers (when invoked as wpe or xwpe), it can also be used as an easy to learn text editor (when invoked as we or xwe).
xwrits Reminds you to take a break from typing
xwrits is a small reminder program designed to let you know it is time to take a break from typing to rest your wrists and prevent any damage to your wrists (or at least make them feel better if you've already damaged them).

xyoubin The conventional mail arrival notification client for X.
This package contains youbin client for X. This look and feel is like xbiff.
xzgv Picture viewer for X with a thumbnail-based selector
xzgv is a picture viewer for X, with a thumbnail-based file selector. It uses GTK+ and Imlib. Most file formats are supported, and the thumbnails used are compatible with xv, zgv, and the Gimp. It can also be used with `xzgv file(s)', to effectively bypass the file selector. For more on how xzgv works and how to use it, do `info xzgv' or `man xzgv' once it's installed.
xzgv differs from other picture viewers for X in that it uses one window for both the file selector and viewer, it (unlike xv) allows both scrolling and fit-to-window methods of viewing large pictures, and it (unlike xv and some others) doesn't ever mangle the picture's aspect ratio.
It also provides extensive keyboard support; if you prefer using the keyboard, this is almost certainly the best viewer for you. But it doesn't skimp on the mousey stuff, either.
Note that this program is written by the author of the svgalib-based "zgv", and has similar features.

zope-emarket Simple e-commerce system for Zope
Basically an EMarket is a folderish object that (currently) consists of a set of methods and five folderish 'Specialists'. Each specialist is responsible for managing one particular type of object. They have methods, and racks: methods to interface to the rest of the application, and racks to handle the storage and retrieval of the objects they manage:
marketItems: manage the market items in the EMarket
shoppers: manage the shopper objects
basketManager: manage the 'shopping baskets'
basketItemManager: manage the items in the shopping baskets.
transactions: manage the completed transactions
The idea here is to provide a framework for a 'shopping area' that is at once flexible, simple, and reasonably robust. The display of the market area is determined by editable templates that are contained in the marketItems folder. The display of the shopping 'Baskets' is managed by templates in the shoppers folder. This way each EMarket can be customized easily. Also, the developer picks the classes they want to use for shoppers, marketItems, etc... so they can also be used to customize the look and feel of the market.
zope-extfile Stores large files outside Zope database
The ExtFile Product stores large files in an external file-repository and is able to display icons for different MIME-Types. The ExtImage Product additionally creates preview-thumbnails from various images and displays them.
ExtFile and ExtImage basically work like the Zope File and Image products. The difference is, that the File/Image Products stores the (binary) file inside the ZODB, wheras ExtFile/ExtImage stores it externally in a repository directory (default: <zope-dir>/var/reposit). Only meta data (like title and description) are stored in the Database. This prevents the Database swelling up quickly, when many large files are uploaded and thus increasing database performance.

zope-ldap A driver for connecting Zope with Ldap system
Zope-ldap is a driver for connecting Zope and Ldap Server It depends from python-ldap modules.
zope-loginmanager User Folder workalike and replacement for Zope
LoginManager is a User Folder workalike and replacement which solves the "N * M" problem seen with previous User Folders. Because of its PlugIn-based architecture, it will almost never need to be subclassed to implement custom functionality. (For more information on the PlugIn system, see the Products.ZPatterns.PlugIns module source.)
LoginManager uses two kinds of PlugIns, the "User Source" and the "Login Method". User Sources provide an interface to an arbitrary store of user records. A LoginManager may contain multiple User Sources, and will search them in user-defined order until one returns a valid user object.
Login Methods are responsible for examining a REQUEST for identification and credentials. They are also indirectly responsible for authenticating the user. In most cases, they simply call user.authenticate(), passing the credentials (typically a password) they extracted from the REQUEST. A single LoginManager may contain multiple Login Methods, which are tried in user-defined order, and the result of the last Login Method is used. (Most Login Methods simply return the result of the previous Login Method if it had already validated a user. But the sequence is chained to allow for voting, multi-credential requirements, etc.)
zope-mysqlda A Zope Database Adapter for MySQL
ZMySQLDA is a database adapter for accessing MySQL databases from Zope.

zope-zpatterns Database Independence and Framework Integration for Zope
Provides a variety of base classes and frameworks for Zope product and application development. Some currently available patterns include:
Plugins: A framework for Folder-like object ("plugin containers") to have management tabs ("plugin groups") that hold collections of objects ("plugins") supporting a particular collaboration interface ("plugin kind").
SheetProviders: A framework for providing database-independent property sheets to objects. SheetProviders are PlugIns which Racks and Specialists use to give their contents PropertySheets, without any objects (besides the SheetProviders) needing to know how the property sheets are implemented or where they are stored. One can create SheetProviders that store data in literally any kind of database accessible by Zope.
AttributeProviders: Similar to SheetProviders, but for individual object attributes.
Racks: A framework for database-independent collections of objects. Racks retrieve or store objects. They are SheetProviderContainers and AttributeProviderContainers, and thus allow for property sheets and attributes to be added to their contents from another database. The default Rack implementation stores all data in the ZODB (as do the default "provider" implementations), but the framework code is documented for easy subclassing to create alternative storage methods.
Specialists: A way of organizing your applications around object interfaces and class-level services. (Known as Implementors in the original RIPP Model).
