Free crct practice software for linux

t-prot (TOFU Protection) is a filter which improves the readability of email messages and Usenet posts by hiding some of their annoying parts.
The annoyances it handles include mailing list footers, signatures, TOFU, sequences of blank lines, and repeated punctuation.
TOFU is an acronym that stands for "Text oben, Fullquote unten", a German reference to the practice of adding just a few lines of original text and quoting a complete message below them.
Enhancements:
- A new option was added to skip processing of very large and time-consuming messages.

Drum count is a free software created to count drum hits in real-time. Its a useful practice tool for drummers, and its really easy to use!

Tasty Menu project is a KMenu replacement aiming to provide the maximum usability, or at least to be a testbed for usability concepts and ideas for a future kmenu replacement.
The left part of the menu is very similar to the Novell idea (http://www.novell.com/products/desktop/preview.html): you have a search box that is always selected when the menu is opened (the search result are displayed in the leftmost listview), followed by a combobox that decides what the following listview: favourite applications (default), most used applications, recently used applications and recent documents.
The right part contains the whole kmenu and takes the aspect from KBFX (http://www.kbfx.org), the middle column contains the top level categorization (plus in the current kmenu arrangment there are also the control center, home folder and find files, but i think there should be present only categories). in the left-most listview there is the content of the category currently selected in the middle column. I think in this way even if it has the same number of items it _appears_ less huge than with a popup menu/submenu structure.
every items have two row, for the name and for the description, in order to make a more it more informative. On each selected item appears an action icon on the right, at the moment they are "add bookmark" on application icons and "remove bookmark" on favourite apps list.
The bottom buttons are the usual switch user, lock session and logout. In a first time I didnt want to put them, I tought that these function should be delegate to another applet like http://kde-apps.org/content/show.php?content=26150 , but it seems that the multiple menus concept its a thing that doesnt work very well in practice, it needs more real-world testing.
The left-most btton contains the user name and icon, and clicking on it it opens the kcm used to edit the users profile. I know it seems silly, but Its only an experiment, probably it will be merged with the switch user button.
Enhancements:
- "Add to desktop" option in menuitems
- Drag and drop from menu to desktop
- Option to set different icons sizes in the three columns
- the button text label should always be of a visible color
- most used/recently used applications list updates in realtime
- clear most used/recently used applications list
- (warning1: deleting one list deletes also the other)
- (warning2: if you use opensuse you must have kickoff reverted to classic kmenu in order to use the recently used/most used lists)
- updated russian and german translations

struts timeEntry project is a self training application that developers can use while learning Apaches Struts framework. Often when learning a new language, library or framework, developers find that the example code they are presented with is acedemic and "best case".
They find it difficult to locate real-world case studies in which the language, library or framework have been put into practice.
struts timeEntry stives to be a real-world application that utilizes the struts framework fully. Some project goals include:
- keep all source open
- document the code and explain what/when/why
- keep the application useful in real life
- maintain use of contemporary techniques/technologies
The list of technologies used in this project presently include:
- Sun Microsystems Java EE 5
- Apaches Struts framework
- Apaches Tomcat servlet container
- MySQLs database server
- MySQLs JDBC connector
- Bruno Lowagie & Paulo Soares itext pdf generation library
- GNUs GIMP image manipulation program
- The Eclipse IDE
Enhancements:
- The timeEntryAdmin administration module was added.
- Numerous bugs in the timeEntry client module were revolved.
- Data integrity indexes were added to the database.
- The graphics were updated.

DaisyPlayer is a program for playing Digital Talking Books (DTB). The DaisyPlayer Projects main focus is to make a library with a small, easy-to-use API, making it easy for other developers to write their own daisy players without having much knowledge about the Daisy format and standards.

A console and a GUI front-end are available fo this library to demonstrate how it can be used in practice and for those who just need a simple daisy player.

cpdetector project is a small yet clever framework for codepage detection.

cpdetector is a small yet clever framework for codepage detection that integrates different strategies. It may be used as a library for third party software that accesses textual data over network.

It also includes a best-practice implementation in form of a command line tool that allows sorting and transforming large collections of documents based on their codepage.

Available strategies include: jchardet (exclusion, frequency analysis, and guessing), detection of the HTML charset property, and detection of the XML encoding declaration.

What is a code page?

At first, a textual document is nothing more than sequences of bits. A computer has to decide, how he can display this data in form of characters (which are identified by the computer as numbers).

A code page - which is also known as charset encoding - maps the raw data of a textual document to characters. The original ASCII code page for example only uses 7 bits of an octet (byte) for deciding the character that is represented thus allowing only to map 128 different characters. In the past memory was expensive and computers most often only had registers and busses for 8 bit.

When a mainframe was conceived it had to be decided, which characters it should support. Physicians and mathematicians for example needed special characters for equations. As a result, a computer often shipped with a special codepage.

rtldi is an ELF program interpreter that enables each main executable program to use its own runtime loader and shared libraries, independent of the default versions installed in /lib, and independent of any other main executable program.

Thus rtldi facilitates the simultaneous interoperation of programs that originally were linked using different generations of glibc6. In theory glibc6 is backward compatible (a given binary executable should run correctly using any subsequent version of glibc6), but in practice there have been enough bugs and glitches at various times to require workarounds.

Example: If the PT_INTERP of an executable a.elf is /2.2.4-24/rtldi (instead of /lib/ld-linux.so.2), then the executable runs effectively as if it were invoked via
/2.2.4-24/ld-linux.so.2 --library-path /2.2.4-24:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH /path/of/execve/a.elf args... and will use /2.2.4-24/libc.so.6 for its glibc6. rtldi uses its own path prefix in PT_INTERP as the prefix for ld-linux.so.2, and as the first directory path in the colon-separated list argument following --library-path.

The --library-path argument replaces LD_LIBRARY_PATH for a.elf only, without modifying LD_LIBRARY_PATH for a.elf or for any children that a.elf may invoke. (This is a feature of ld-linux.so.2.) Also, the process name remains "a.elf".

New ELF executables can specify the runtime loader by building with -Wl,--dynamic-linker=/path/to/rtldi. Old executables that specify /lib/ld-linux.so.2 for their PT_INTERP can be modified by using a binary file editor.

Find the Offset of the INTERP string by using readelf --program-headers a.elf. The replacement string cannot be longer, and must be terminated by
