Free aol embedded images software for linux

Alpine is a modular embedded linux distribution for use in small appliances such as VPN gateways, routers, and more.

The name "Alpine" stands for A Linux Powered Integrated Network Engine.
Alpine can boot from floppy/usb/cf/cd/whatever, packages are pulled into RAM, and everything runs from RAM, just like the distros found in LEAF.

This makes for very fast application load times, and provides added security if the boot media is write-protected or removed.

Design Philosophy & Goals

Security comes very high. Everything is compiled with stack smashing protection. It costs approximately 3-5% in speed and size, but we believe its worth it. We also strive to make package configurations secure by default.

Size is also very important. Its why Alpine is an embedded distribution and not a general purpose one. We use uClibc and BusyBox as our main library and shell components. We are however willing to sacrifice some size for speedier development (see below). A typical installation medium would be a small compact flash card, not a floppy.

Innovate, dont Recreate. Our goal is to to keep Alpine as easy to maintain as possible. This means we try to use the work of others as much as possible (obviously only if its open source). By doing this we free up our development time to implement new features and improve the overall product. For example, weve written stripped down shell libraries and re-use the stock Gentoo init.d scripts.

Automation is key. We try to provide automated processes (using scripts) for everything in the build process. Alpine is an extension of the Gentoo build framework. We use scripts that simply convert the Gentoo binary packages. Many things there are similar to Gentoo.

User Friendly. Our goal is to make installation and use of Alpine extremely user friendly without compromising with security. Eventually wed like all packages to be configurable via a sophisticated web interface (webconfs). This is not yet implemented. Wed also like to implement the ability to upgrade packages while maintaining a workable configuration all with minimal impact to the service being upgraded.

Scalable. It should be possible to install Alpine in 3, 300, or 3,000 locations with a similar amount of effort. We plan to write an automated installer, centralized repository manager, centralized configuration manager, and monitoring tools.

NullLogic Embedded Scripting Language (Nesla) code looks a lot like php (the same basic c operators, syntax and flow control) but with a lot less dollar signs. Internally, Nesla has a very clean API that makes it easy for c programs to make full use of its functions and data.

Nesla was originally written as a lightweight object model for c.

Nesla is Free Software, and is available under the terms of the GNU GPL.

VEE, Vim Embedded Editor is the sum of VIM and X-Terminal and is written by python language, pygtk binding, vte python modules and is tightly integrated with GNOME environment.
VEE was started to make a text editor, which was based on the VIM, but now VEE has the (G)VIM and also a X terminal. VEE has a special feature to open VIM, X terminal as a new TAB in notebook.
VEE is tightly integrated with GNOME, so without under GNOME environment VEE will not be correctly worked.
Main features:
- support (G)VIM and X terminal
- open the (G)VIM and X terminal as a new TAB in notebook.
- simultaneously increase or decrease the size of font.
- DND(Drag & Drop).
- You can drop down the file to VEE in GNOME desktop
- external terminal can be executed in VEE as a new tab.
- open file outside VEE, with veet.
- can be stored the tab state in bookmark

Process Raw Images is a service menu for processing many raw images at once. Supports output to Jpeg, Png and Tiff.

GRUB Splash Images package contains a collection of splashimages which can be used for GRUB.

If youd like your splashimage in this package send them to mcgrof@ruslug.rutgers.edu.

Quick tips for the impatient:

convert -resize 640x480 -colors 14 image.png image.xpm && gzip image.xpm

Quick tip for debian users: Use "unstable" packages in your /etc/apt/sources.list in order to get the latest GRUB with splashimage support

Quick tip to install GRUB (only Debian users do the apt-get line):

# using the unstable tree
apt-get install grub
grub-install /dev/hda
# Go edit/make a menu.lst file and put it in /boot/grub/menu.lst
grub
# then on the grub prompt run:

# The partition that has the boot partition
root (hd0,0)
install /grub/stage1 (hd0) /grub/stage2 p /grub/menu.lst
quit
