Free churches software for linux

CFPlus is a modern client for Crossfire+ and Crossfire MMORPG game servers.
It offers a large map, an elaborate menu and help system, dialog-based character setup, and an innovative command completer and macros, and supports all CF+ extensions: dialog-based NPC interaction, enhanced map protocol (health and dialogue information), and the graphical minimap.
It is based on Perl, SDL, and OpenGL for high performance on modern systems, and works on both Unix and Windows. Ports to other platforms should be very easy and are underway.
Main features:
- Death is not permanent, and you can get back all lost stats and experience by playing a game in a special place named Nimbus. You are teleported there when you die and you have to play a game (currently minesweeper) to get out.
- Friendly fire is disabled and playerkilling is also modified. You can only kill another player when you and the other player are hostile. To become hostile, you have to visit the church of Gorokh in Scorn and talk to the priest. To become peaceful again, visit the curch of Valriel and talk to its priest.
- Invitation of other players to where you are is possible with the invite command. You have to solve the invitor quest (see below in maps) to be able to use the command.
- You can follow other players with the follow command when you stand next to the player you want to follow.
- Pet monsters and summoned creatures will not stand in the way of other party members, making it bearable to play with summoning skills in a party.
- Map and graphics artists are working on improved graphics and new maps and quests.
- A new currency: the Royalty. Its worth 100 Platinum and is made of paper. (The bank script was completly rewritten in Perl)
- The communication commands have been rewritten in Perl and an ignore command was added.
- Trade shops have been implemented in Perl, which allows the player to trade items when they are offline.

Community Content Management project consists of a light-weight CMS, designed for communities.
Community Content Management is a light-weight CMS, which is designed for small communities, such as churches, schools, and neighborhood watch groups.
It allows someone with relatively little knowledge of the Internet to publish news stories and events. It sets archive/publishing dates, allowing groups to write press releases/articles about events before they happen.
Its output conforms to XHTML 1.0 and uses CSS 2, and its configuration comprises one file, which sets the site title, database, host, and meta tags.
Enhancements:
- Login - code changed so correct variables are passed to login script :)
- Search - Search Engine Added
- Articles - new lines (n) are replaced with "
" instead of " "

Gcal is a program for calculating and printing calendars. It displays hybrid and proleptic Julian and Gregorian calendar sheets, respectively for one month, three months, or a whole year.
It also displays eternal holiday lists for many countries around the globe, and features a very powerful creation of fixed date liststhat can be used for reminding purposes. Gcal can calculate various astronomical data and times of the Sun and the Moon for pleasure at any location, precisely enough for most civil purposes.
Gcal supports some other calendar systems, for example, the Chinese and Japanese calendars, the Hebrew calendar, and the civil Islamic calendar, too.
English user manual included; German user manual included.
Main features:

Librarian DB was originally developed for a Church library, to store its books and allow its members find books. The project stores the following information about each book:
- Title
- Author / Editor
- ISBN
- Publisher
- Copyright year
- Categories
- Audience
- Media type (e.g. Book,DVD, CD, ...)
And since it is a Dataface application it is easy to add your own information to be stored.
Enhancements:
- This release fixes incompatibilities with PHP 4.
- Specifically, it fixes the error "Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_OBJECT_OPERATOR in .../tables/books/books.php on line 61"

Uplug is a collection of tools for linguistic corpus processing, word alignment, and term extraction from parallel corpora. Several tools have been integrated in Uplug.
Pre-processing tools include a sentence splitter, tokenizer, and external part-of-speech tagger and shallow parsers. The following external tools are used: the Grok system for English (tagging and chunking) and the morphological analyzer ChaSen for Japanese.
Other tools such as the TreeTagger can easily be added. Translated documents can be sentence aligned using the length-based approach by Gale & Church. Words and phrases can be aligned using the clue alignment approach and the toolbox for training statistical alignment models GIZA++.
Enhancements:
- User management for the Web-based alignment interfaces (ICA & ISA) using simple password protection and user-specific data storage.
- 2 new sentence aligners integrated into Uplug: hunalign and GMA.
- Another sentence alignment approach: uplugalign (length-based sentence alignment with cognate/dictionary filters).
- Quickstart documentation for the new features.

Crystality Plugin consists of XMMS plugin and stdin/stdout plugin. It was written for realtime remastering of sound from mp3 files.
You will need a reasonably good stereo and a good ear to notice quality
improvement, otherwise this is not for you.

This plugin tries to patch mp3 format flaws, not a poor audio hardware! Yes, you should be able to hear well enough (sorry) - for some of my friends plugin is a cool thing, while the others does not hear nothing but echo and stereo expander (well, you will hear every effect if you set it to the maximum, but it will not sound nice).

Crystality was written for 16bit 44.1kHz stereo sound and may give strange results
with other sound formats.

Damian Hodgkiss sent me a quick port for Winamp 2.x. I have not tried it yet, but you can get it (cr-quick-winamp-port.zip).

This plugin does mainly four things (and some minor tricks):

1. Adds some sounds in very high frequency range. Most of the mp3s in The Net are flawed with a 16(15?) kHz cutoff. Even these ones compressed at high bitrates. This spectrum hole is audible and very unpleasant. This plugin helps a bit. Old mp3s made from the vinyl or the magnetic tape may also sound better with these "steroids". For old mp3s youll probably need to set filter to 0.1.

2. Adds some even harmonic distortions (actually nonlinearity), that sounds nice. Valve amps introduce even harmonic distortions (although differnt way) Look at audiophile pages for more info (well, mp3 format is not an audiophile stuff at all, but... welcome to the real world...).

3. Adds simple, but nice 3D echo (concert hall or church like). Most of echo plugins sounds too hard and aggresively for me. This one does not.

4. Extends stereo.

USING:

There are currently two versions of plugin - XMMS plugin and stdin/stdout. Stdin/out plugin is completly independent of XMMS plugin. It even stores its configuration in a separate file (~/.crystalityrc). Stdin/out plugin is alpha code, so some features are missed. You cannot reopen configuration dialog after closing without restarting plugin, there are no "save config", "load config" buttons. Configuration is loaded automatically on startup and saved on exit, either on normal finish or ^C. You can disable GUI with -g option (useful in scripts).

Because this plugin adds some sounds at high frequencies, you will probably need to decrease treble level on your amplifier. Plugin does not perform normalization, so you should slightly decrease signal level in XMMS equalizer (NOT volume slider on the main panel). Setting sliders to the maximum is generally a bad idea (well, except the filter, where that setting is useful).

PERFORMANCE:

It eats about 15% of CPU on my AMD K6-2/400 and optimization is still possible, this is not highly optimized code.

INSTALLATION:

Distribution contains binary version of XMMS plugin library and stdin/stdout plugin executable (Linux i586, glibc 2.1.3). You may copy plugin library file (libcrystality.so) into XMMSs Effect directory and executable (crystality-stdio) to /usr/local/bin or any location you prefer. For default locations simply type:

make install

and thats it.
You may also build crystality from the source.

make buildinstall

typed as root in the source directory should be all you have to do.

This plugin was my first small step in gtk programming, so dont expect any wonders, GUI is actually a quick hack to hardcoded settings. I am not a GUI programmer.

A practical lambda-calculator is a normal-order evaluator for the untyped lambda-calculus, extended with convenient commands and shortcuts to make programming in it more productive.

Shortcuts are distinguished constants that represent terms. Commands define new shortcuts, activate tracing of all reductions, compare terms modulo alpha-conversion, print all defined shortcuts and evaluation flags, etc.

Terms to evaluate and commands are entered at a read-eval-print-loop (REPL) "prompt" or "included" from a file by a special command. A Haskell branch is an embedding of the lambda calculator (as a domain-specific language) into Haskell. The calculator can be used interactively within Hugs or GHCi.

The present calculator implements what seems to be an efficient and elegant algorithm of normal order reductions. The algorithm is "more functional" than the traditionally used approach.

The algorithm seems identical to that employed by yacc sans one critical difference. The calculator also takes a more "functional" approach to the hygiene of beta-substitutions, which is achieved by coloring of identifiers where absolutely necessary. This approach is "more functional" because it avoids a global counter or the threading of the paint bucket through the whole the process. The integration of the calculator with Haskell lets us store terms in variables and easily and intuitively combine them.

The traditional recipe for normal-order reductions includes an unpleasant phrase "cook until done". The phrase makes it necessary to keep track of reduction attempts, and implies an ugly iterative algorithm. Were proposing what seems to be an efficient and elegant technique that can be implemented through intuitive re-writing rules.

Our calculator, like yacc, possesses a stack and works by doing a sequence of shift and reduce steps. The only significant difference from yacc is that the lambda-calculator "reparses" the result after the successful reduce step. The source and the target languages of our "parser" (lambda-calculator) are the same; therefore, the parser can indeed apply itself.

The parsing stack can be made implicit. In that case, the algorithm can be used for normalization of typed lambda-terms in Twelf.

The following examples show that lambda-calculus becomes a domain-specific language embedded into Haskell:

> c0 = f ^ x ^ x -- Church numeral 0
> succ = c ^ f ^ x ^ f # (c # f # x) -- Successor

> c1 = eval $ succ # c0 -- pre-evaluate other numerals
> c2 = eval $ succ # c1
> c3 = eval $ succ # c2
> c4 = eval $ succ # c3

It is indeed convenient to store terms in Haskell variables and pre-evaluate (i.e., normalize) them. They are indeed terms. We can always ask the interpreter to show the term. For example, show c4 yields (f. (x. f (f (f (f x))))).

let mul = a ^ b ^ f ^ a # (b # f) -- multiplication
eval $ mul # c1 ---> (b. b), the identity function
eval $ mul # c0 ---> (b. (f. (x. x))), which is "const 0"

These are algebraic results: multiplying any number by zero always gives zero. We can see now how lambda-calculus can be useful for theorem proving, even over universally-quantified formulas.

The calculator implements Dr. Fairbairns suggestion to limit the depth of printed terms. This makes it possible to evaluate and print some divergent terms (so-called tail-divergent terms):

Lambda_calc> let y_comb = f^((p^p#p) # (c ^ f#(c#c))) in eval $ y_comb#c
c (c (c (c (c (c (c (c (c (c (...))))))))))

It is amazing how well lambda-calculus and Haskell play together.

PDFdirectory project is designed to save time and frustration in the process of creating a printable directory for your organization. Much of the difficulty is in the exchange of information from group members to whomever is assigned the task of creating the directory.
This difficulty is overcome by having select members enter member data into a database, defining the organizations hierarchy and managing page insertion into the hierarchy. The member information will be auto-generated in the final document. Uses could be for church groups, sports leagues etc.
Main features:
General:
- Template support for auto-generation of member data.
- Standard PDF output or booklet format.
- Choice of various languages.
- Create pages offline in your favorite desktop app.
- Automatic generation of Table of Contents and Index.
- Gutter support.
Administration:
- Assigning of users.
- Restrict users as to what they can access.
- Defining the organizations structure and assigning of enumerations reflecting that structure.
User level access:
- Maintaing the database of Members.
- Create custom pages and define their location in the document.
- Assigning members to there groups.
Enhancements:
- Security was improved with SQL injection filtering and encrypted passwords.
