audio_rename can rename an audio file via information got via MP3::Tag.

SYNOPSIS

audio_rename -csR -@p "@a/@l/@02n_@t" .

renames all the audio files in this directory and its subdirectories into a 3-level directory structure given by Artist_Name/Album/Filename, with the basename of Filename being the 2-digit track number separated from the title by underscore.

audio_rename -KD *.wav

Reports how it would rename the *.wav files in this directory according to the default -p rule, but without protectiing "funny" characters. Will not do actual renaming.

audio_rename -sc *.mp3

Rename the *.mp3 files in this directory according to the default -p rule, translating cyrillic characters into Latin "equivalents", shortening the names of long components, and protecting "funny" characters.

audio_rename -p %a/%{d0}/%B -G */*.mp3

Assuming one-level subdirectory structure dir/filename.ext, finds files with extension .mp3, and "sorts" them into a two-level subdirectory structure; toplevel directory is based on the "artist" field, the remaing level is preserved.

audio_rename -p %a/%{d0}/%B -R .

Likewise, but does not suppose any particular depth of the current directory structure; only the filename and the most internal directory name are preserved.

audio_rename -p %a/%N -R .

Likewise, but all directory names (inside the current directory) are preserved.

The script takes a list of files (or, with -R option, directories) and renames the given files (or audio files in the directories) according to the rules specified through the command line options. File extensions are preserved (by default).

Some "companion" files (i.e., file with the same basename, and with an extension from a certain list) may be renamed together with audio files. A lot of care is taken to make the resulting file names as portable as possible: e.g., "funny" characters in file names are dumbed down (unless requested otherwise), long filename components may be shortened to certain limits.

A care is taken so that renaming will not overwrite existing files; however, on OSes which allow rename() to overwrite files, race conditions can ruin the best intentions. E.g., do not run several "overlapping" rename procedures simultaneously!

conexus is a generalized C++ I/O library that includes support for BSD sockets, serial/TTY, and packet capture (via pcap).

conexus library utilizes sigc++ for object communication. A companion library, conexusgtk, provides a set of gtkmm widgets.

OSSP sa is an abstraction library for the Unix socket application programming interface (API) featuring stream and datagram oriented communication over Unix Domain and Internet Domain (TCP and UDP) sockets.
It provides the following key features: address abstraction (local, IPv4, and IPv6), type abstraction, I/O timeouts, I/O stream buffering and convenience I/O functions.
Main features:
Stand-Alone, Self-Contained, Embeddable
- Although there are various Open Source libraries available which provide a similar abstraction approach, they all either lack important features or unfortunately depend on other companion libraries. OSSP sa fills this gap by providing all important features (see following points) as a stand-alone and fully self-contained library. This way OSSP sa can be trivially embedded as a sub-library into other libraries. It especially provides additional support for namespace-safe embedding of its API in order to avoid symbol conflicts.
Address Abstraction
- Most of the ugliness in the Unix Socket API is the necessity to have to deal with the various address structures (struct sockaddr_xx) which exist because of both the different communication types and addressing schemes. OSSP sa fully hides this by providing an abstract and opaque address type (sa_addr_t) together with utility functions which allow one to convert from the traditional struct sockaddr or URI specification to the sa_addr_t and vice versa without having to deal with special cases related to the underlying particular struct sockaddr_xx. OSSP sa support Unix Domain and both IPv4 and IPv6 Internet Domain addressing.
Type Abstraction
- Some other subtle details in the Unix Socket API make the life hard in practice: socklen_t and ssize_t. These two types originally were (and on some platforms still are) plain integers or unsigned integers while POSIX later introduced own types for them (and even revised these types after some time again). This is nasty, because for 100% type-correct API usage (especially important on 64-bit machines where pointers to different integer types make trouble), every application has to check whether the newer types exists, and if not provide own definitions which map to the still actually used integer type on the underlying platform. OSSP sa hides most of this in its API and for socklen_t provides a backward-compatibility definition. Instead of ssize_t it can use size_t because OSSP sa does not use traditional Unix return code semantics.
I/O Timeouts
- Each I/O function in OSSP sa is aware of timeouts (set by sa_timeout(3)), i.e., all I/O operations return SA_ERR_TMT if the timeout expired before the I/O operation was able to succeed. This allows one to easily program less-blocking network services. OSSP sa internally implements these timeouts either through the SO_{SND,RCV}TIMEO feature on more modern Socket implementations or through traditional select(2). This way high performance is achieved on modern platforms while the full functionality still is available on older platforms.
I/O Stream Buffering
- If OSSP sa is used for stream communication, internally all I/O operations can be performed through input and/or output buffers (set by sa_buffer(3)) for achieving higher I/O performance by doing I/O operations on larger aggregated messages and with less required system calls. Additionally if OSSP sa is used for stream communication, for convenience reasons line-oriented reading (sa_readln(3)) and formatted writing (see sa_writef(3)) is provided, modelled after STDIOs fgets(3) and fprintf(3). Both features fully leverage from the I/O buffering.
Enhancements:
- Removed SA_SYSCALL_GETHOSTBYNAME because gethostbyname(3) cannot be overridden as at is use point (function sa_addr_u2a) the sa_t object is not available.
- Additionally, for IPv6 getaddrinfo(3) would have been overridden, too.
- This fixed compilation on platforms without IPv6 APIs.

PikLoops is a simple KDE program used to generate assembly time delays for Microchip microcontrolers using Microchip instructions.
PikLoops is based on a program for Windows, originally created by William J. Boucher. Using his calculation formulas we can generate accurate assembly language time delay loops.
This application is an useful companion for Pikdev or Piklab IDE.
Enhancements:
- PikLoops is now localizable.
- A French localization and a German localization were added.
- French documentation was added.
