Free 0.7.6 software for linux

Xye is a new, free version of the classic game Kye which also extends the game adding more objects and gameplay options.
Xye is now possible to edit and make levels by knowing either the Xye level format or the kye level format.
The project is currently on beta state.
Reproduce Kyes gameplay
Although some gameplay factors wont be reproduced / will be modiffied the main idea is to do not lose the feeling of the game.
Xye can open and play .kye level files.
Kye2Xye exists so you can convert a .kye level file into .xye and be able to use the new features
Things that will change / have already changed:
- I decided to disallow diagonal movement. The only level I know that gets screwed by this decition is ADOORABLE one of the official Kye levels.
- The mouse control is way different and doesnt stop the time, unlike Kye.
Pressing keys does not boost the game clock speed, this is just a decorative change that does not affect gameplay too much. Ctrol can be used as a fast forward button for those moments when you need the game to speed up.
- Whenever Kye got into a blackhole, the blackhole didnt show up its animation/enter in busy state. This has changed in Kye
- In fact, the behaviour of black holes in Kye was kind of random / unpredictable, in Xye, though if something enters a black hole, the black hole will always show its animation and enter to busy mode.
- In Xye, pushing a round block towards another rounded object / wall will cause a behaviour similar to the one of rockies too. This is a major change that makes some of the kye levels easier. The reasons behind this change are: logic and practicity. It is really usefult for block based puzzles, Xye made block-based puzzles valid thanks to some of its additions. There is a limitation to the rule and it is that rockies (round arrow blocks) will not allow it to happen if they are pushed towards a direction that is not their active.
Enhancements:
- Undo command
- Can play levels in the Sokoban Standard format
- Memory related Bug fixes
- Minor improvements in some sprites.

GFax project aims to provide a free front end to the various facsimile programs available.

GFax provides the familiar "pop up" window and phone book support when one "prints" to a "fax" printer.

This is the fourth round of major changes for GFax. The first cut was built using the GNOME Objective-C language bindings. Objective-C is nice but the bindings never kept pace with the changes in GNOME. The second cut was written in C.

The third release was moved to Python with libglade. Python is far less "verbose" than C and for this project just makes a lot of sense. I have now moved to C# using mono and gtk#. C# is a very nice language and gives me the best between Python and C.

Katiuska is a theora encoder frontend. It uses ffmpeg2theora, mencoder, the encoder_example that comes with the theora libs and a little gpl bash script that I found with google.

It can encode mostly any kind of video that ffmpeg and mencoder can (avi, mpeg4 and 2, quicktime etc).

Katiuska is also now a DVD ripping tool with an easy to use interface and default settings. Just select your audio and subtitle language if any and youre good to go.

This is my first app ever so it might not work for you at all.

Installation:

Just run ./setup.sh as root and then type "katiuska" to use it.

Gestalter is a free vector drawing program. The user interface is loosely modelled after the famous Illustrator by Adobe. The central element is the Bezier curve used as a base part for almost every other object.

Complex paths are possible, compound paths can be constructed, grouping of elements is enabled and everything can be screened by a mask. Multiple layers are possible, one can choose between two display modes: a antialiased and a wireframe one. The native storage format is a subset of SVG, printing output is Postscript.

You can place pixel images and transform (rotate, skew, scale, etc.) but not edit them (use GIMP for editing pixel image data). You can open the Postscript output of gestalter in GIMP to use your drawings on The Net.

Aggrevator is a cross-platform RSS/Atom aggregator that uses a MySQL 4.1 database for storage. It is designed to make life easier for people who want to subscribe to large numbers of blogs by using scoring, sophisticated search, filtering and sorting.
Its designed for people who are subscribed to many RSS and blog sites and is capable for advanced search, filtering and sorting.
Aggrevators chief distinguishing factor is its use of a MySql database to permanently store every entry fetched from every blog you subscribe to. This means that the user can read offline any of the several thousand blogs theyre interested in. Since Aggrevator is written in Java using the SWT library for its GUI the user can use it on multiple platforms (I have tested it using Linux and Windows) with a single remote database or on one machine with a local database.
Aggrevator offers the user search functionality which lets them track down entries they have read in the past even if theyre offline. The user also has the option of using the filters as a means of finding a particular blog by typing a minimal set of characters and seeing the list of candidates shrink as they type each character.
Main features:
- easy to find in large number of blogs
- filtering capabilities of blogs
