Free 1.3 turbo software for linux

Turbo Vision is a C++ library that provides a very nice user interface for console applications. This UNIX port is based on Borlands version 2.0 with fixes. It was made to create RHIDE, a nice IDE for gcc and other GNU compilers.

The library supports /dev/vcsa devices for fast access to local consoles, and it uses ncurses to run from telnet and xterm. This port, in contrast to the Sigalas port, doesnt have "100% compatibility with the original library" as goal. Instead, many modifications were made for the sake of security (especially buffer overflows).

This port is also available for the original platform (DOS).

AFD comes from Automatic File Distributor and provides a framework for very flexible, non-stop, log and debug-able delivery of an arbitrary amount of files to multiple recipients as expressed in URLs (currently mailing and ftp supported with the mailto://user@domain and ftp://user:password@host URL conventions). AFD stands for Automatic File Distributor.
The most common technique used to distribute data is for each individual to fetch the data from one common place. This place can be a database, FTP-server or even the WWW (World Wide Web). However, this is not always the most user or customer friendly way for a company or organization to distribute its products. For this reason AFD (Automatic File Distributor) was developed, to provide a better service to users or customers in transporting the required data directly to the location where it is required.
When distributing files to a remote host it does so via the FTP or SMTP protocol. Local distribution is done by simply copying files from one directory to another. To distribute files, the AFD has one central configuration file (DIR_CONFIG), where the system administrator can specify which files are to be distributed and where they are to be sent.
Main features:
- The AFD can send/retrieve any type of file, regardless of contents and the name of the file.
- Only the files are being distributed, no other additional information is send with the file.
- The AFD has a very sophisticated and compact X11 interface to monitor and control the distribution of files (afd_ctrl). It has the ability to do extensive logging of all activities, even down to tracing each individual FTP/SMTP command.
- Files can be send to places where no AFD is installed.
- There can be more than one process distributing files to a single host. This has the advantage that when a large file is currently being distributed, other files dont have to wait until the large file is done.
- Where net capacity is limited, it is possible to distribute files with priority.
- If the transfer gets interrupted, AFD can append files. So data that has already been transmitted will not be send again.
- It is possible to setup a whole network of AFDs that can be monitored and controlled through a single interface (mon_ctrl).
Version restrictions:
- The AFD requires X11R5 and Motif 1.2.x (or higher).
Enhancements:
- Files that have been distributed or are to be distributed can now be viewed via show_olog and show_queue dialog.
- A new interface for acknowledging errors was added.
- All events are logged into a separate log file.
- The pattern matching function was enhanced so that it can also handle [] brackets.
- More syntax checks were added for options in DIR_CONFIG.

Lybniz project is a simple function graph plotter in Python on GTK.

Lybniz allows to plot up to three functions on one graph. It needs no installation - simply one Python script.

wbar is a quick launch bar recommended for fluxbox or Window Maker. wbars goal is speed.
This is eye candy developed in C++. The motivation is eye-candy which runs as fast as possible but still it probably made faster.
Tested succesfully on Fluxbox, WindowMaker.
Can be tweaked for other window managers but those who usualy use a desktop application such as nautilus will obscure Warbar because it runs with override-redirection so the window manager doesnt do the decorations and stays at the bottom of root window.
Installation:
- Needs imlib2
# make
create initial config for user (should make config with each user)
# make config
as root (if you dont have a bin directory at home)
# make install
warbar --help
Enhancements:
- Expansion now occurs on entering and leaving the bar.
- Better cleaning and drawing algorithms were implemented.

Cego implements a relational and transactional database system with support for the SQL query language. The current release contains the most common database features for basic table manipulation and data retrieval.

Indexes, foreign keys, views, and stored procedures are also implemented. Future releases (2.0 and above) will support a multi-node database concept with log file shipping for an automatic database application failover.

Glom allows you to design database table definitions and the relationships between them. It also allows you to edit and search the data in those tables.

The design is loosely based upon FileMaker Pro, with the added advantage of separation between interface and data. It attempts to provide a simple generic framework sufficient to implement most database applications. These systems normally consists of lots of repetitive, unmaintainable code.

Glom-specific data such as the relationship definitions is saved in the Glom document. Glom re-connects to the database server when it loads a previous Glom document. The document is in XML format.

Glom uses the PostgresSQL database backend but it can not edit databases that it did not create, because it uses only a simple subset of Postgres functionality.

CSSTidy is an opensource CSS parser and optimizer. The project is available as executeable file (available for Windows, Linux and OSX) which can be controlled per command line and as PHP script (both with almost the same functionality).
In opposite to most other CSS parsers, no regular expressions are used and thus CSSTidy has full CSS2 support and a higher reliability.
Main features:
- colours like "black" or rgb(0,0,0) are converted to #000000 or rather #000 if possible. Some hex-codes are replaced by their colour names if they are shorter.
- a{property:x;property:y;} becomes a{property:y;} (all duplicate properties are merged)
- margin:1px 1px 1px 1px; becomes margin:1px;
- margin:0px; becomes margin:0;
- a{margin-top:10px; margin-bottom:10px; margin-left:10px; margin-right:10px;} becomes a{margin:10px;}
- margin:010.0px; becomes margin:10px;
- all unnecessary whitespace is removed, depending on the compression-level
- all background-properties are merged
- all comments are removed
- the last semicolon in every block can be removed
- missing semicolons are added, incorrect newlines in strings are fixed, missing units are added, bad colors (and color names) are fixed
- property:value ! important; becomes property:value !important.
Why optimise?
If you optimise your CSS code you have faster loading pages and lower traffic costs. So both you and your visitors benefit from an optimisation. If you are interested in a faster loading webpage, websiteoptimization.com might also be an interesting resource.
Compression ratio
The compression ratio mostly depends on the level of whitespace-removal. Using standard whitespace-removal (which preserves the readability) the compression ratio often is 30% and more. In theory the compression ratio can be 99,99% but only very "stupid" stylesheets will allow those ratios. Also have a look at the examples.
Apart from compression
If a high compression is not important for you, you can also use CSSTidy to format or fix CSS code for a higher browser compatibility. Apart from the 4 default templates you can specify custom templates so that you can easily format a lot of CSS code using your own coding style. Other features are sorting and changing the case of selectors and properties.
Enhancements:
- Note: This is the last version of CSSTidy. If youd like continue maintaining it, let me know.
- FS#146 - Quotes
- FS#147 - Universal selector before classes, IDs and attribute selectors
- FS#150 - Wrong trasformation of a big integer value
- FS#144 ? !important rule
- FS#140: Fixing Values of Invalid properties
- [ 1745894 ] @media merge strangeness (cssTidy.exe version)
- FS#143: Save some more bytes

TinyURL is a Konversation script that makes a TinyURL (http://tinyurl.com) from a given URL.

Just copy it to /usr/share/apps/konversation/scripts/ (system wide) or to ~/.kde/share/apps/konversation/scripts/ (for just your user).
