Free code blocks 1.0 rc2 software for linux

Code::Blocks is a free C++ IDE built specifically to meet the most demanding needs of its users. The Code::Blocks project was designed, right from the start, to be extensible and configurable.
Built around a plugin framework, Code::Blocks can be extended with plugin DLLs. It includes a plugin wizard so you can compile your own plugins! (Free SDK downloaded separately)

- Uses XML format for project files.
- Multi-target projects
- Workspaces support
- Imports MSVC projects and workspaces (NOTE: assembly code and inter-project dependencies not supported yet)
- Imports Dev-C++ projects
- Integrates with GDB for debugging
- Syntax highlighting, customizable and extensible
- Code folding for C++ and XML files.
- Tabbed interface
- Code completion plugin

XCB (X protocol C-language Binding) is a replacement for Xlib featuring a small footprint, latency hiding, direct access to the protocol, improved threading support, and extensibility.

It has several advantages over Xlib, including size (small library and lower memory footprint), latency hiding (batch several requests and wait for the replies later), direct protocol access (one-to-one mapping between interface and protocol), thread support (access XCB from multiple threads, with no explicit locking), and easy creation of new extensions (automatically generates its interface from machine-parsable XML protocol descriptions).

Xlib can also use XCB as a transport layer, allowing software to make requests and receive responses with both, which eases porting to XCB. However, client programs, libraries, and toolkits will gain the most benefit from a native XCB port.

Gloster is a secure and decentralized p2p program for small communities.
With Gloster you can easily share files on the Internet without depending on a server.
You can search files on the network and browser users shared files. Multi-sourcing is also supported. You can even create channels or chat with the users.
Gloster is a p2p software working without server designed for small comunities. You can create chan and do pv chat. On a Gloster network, the communications are crypted between the nodes (users).
Enhancements:
- The first configuration wizard was enhanced.
- Translations can be added easily.
- Translation problems were corrected.
- Hashing speed was improved.
- Timestamps and color were added in chat/chan windows.
- MD5 hashing is used instead of MD4.
- Some bugfixes were made.

The X protocol C-language Binding (XCB) is a replacement for Xlib featuring a small footprint, latency hiding, direct access to the protocol, improved threading support, and extensibility.
xcb-proto project contains descriptions of the X Window System core protocol and selected extensions in an XML-based data format.
They are used by the X C Binding (XCB) library to generate much of its code, but you can also use these descriptions for other purposes, such as decoding the X protocol or building X Window System bindings for other languages.
Installation:
The simplest way to compile this package is:
1. `cd to the directory containing the packages source code and type `./configure to configure the package for your system. If youre using `csh on an old version of System V, you might need to type sh ./configure instead to prevent `csh from trying to execute configure itself.
Running `configure takes awhile. While running, it prints some messages telling which features it is checking for.
2. Type `make to compile the package.
3. Optionally, type `make check to run any self-tests that come with the package.
4. Type `make install to install the programs and any data files and documentation.
5. You can remove the program binaries and object files from the source code directory by typing `make clean. To also remove the files that `configure created (so you can compile the package for a different kind of computer), type `make distclean. There is also a `make maintainer-clean target, but that is intended mainly for the packages developers. If you use it, you may have to get all sorts of other programs in order to regenerate files that came with the distribution.
Enhancements:
- < import >xproto< /import > was explicitly added to extensions that use xproto. "union" was changed to "xidunion" for XID unions like DRAWABLE and FONTABLE, so that the code generator can more easily declare these XID unions as integer typedefs rather than unions.
- Structures attempting to provide C type safety were replaced with CARD32 typedefs.
- render.xml now describes CompositeGlyphs* as taking lists of BYTE, rather than lists of unions of structures of lists.
- The caller must construct an appropriate sequence of glyph elements.
- XCB didnt properly handle the previous definition.

ebtables is a filtering tool for a bridging firewall. A firewalling tool to transparently filter network traffic passing a bridge. The filtering possibilities are limited to link layer filtering and some basic filtering on higher network layers. Advanced logging, MAC DNAT/SNAT and brouter facilities are also included.
The ebtables tool can be used together with the other Linux filtering tools, iptables/ip6tables/arptables. There are no incompatibility issues.
This site also has the latest ebtables/bridge-nf patches for the 2.4 kernel series.
The arptables userspace tool is also maintained here.
Enhancements:
- ebtables modules are now located in /usr/lib/ebtables/
- added /sbin/service ebtables support
- added ebtables-save (thanks to Rok Papez ) and ebtables-restore (the first one a perl script, the second one written in c (fast)
- optimized the code for the -A command, making ebtables-restore very fast.
- ebtablesd/ebtablesu is deprecated and not compiled by default the ebtables-save/ebtables-restore scheme is much better

Gnome Memory Blocks project is a concentration game for GNOME.

This is GNOMEs version of the `memory blocks game originaly come from Semantec game pack for Win-3.11

Chrootbin is a tool which will help you make basic chroot environment. The project will also help skipping the boring parts of making a chroot from scratch.
Since version 2.0.0, rpm based systems and slackware packages are supported.
Main features:
- Creating basic chroot env
- Installing relevant files from rpm, slackware packages
NOTE: Its tested on Linux Slackware,SuSE,RedHat,Gentoo,Fedora. Probably works on others too.
Enhancements:
- Installation fixup
- Minor process fixes

Sticker project is an Elvin tickertape messaging and virtual presence client that provides a high degree of desktop integration and specialises in flexible handling of ticker messages.
Main features:
- Scrolling ticker or threaded tree views for reading and sending messages
- Integrated virtual presence
- Multiple tickertapes
- Message processing rules
- Secure messaging
- Windows desktop integration
Enhancements:
- This release adds support for Intel Macs and should fix the remaining serious performance bugs on Mac OS X.
- It also includes a minor UI refresh for Windows and Unix users.
