Free cue cutter software for linux

Cutter is an TCP/IP Connection cutting on Linux Firewalls and Routers.

Cutter is an open source program that uses the FIN-ACK-RST packet technique described above to abort TCP/IP connections routed over the firewall or router on which it is run. It can be called using one of the following four syntaxes.

cutter ip-address

Example: "cutter 10.10.0.45"

Cuts all connections passing through the firewall between any ports on the specified ip-address (either a "private" or "public" address) and any other hosts. This can be used to close down all incoming connections to a particular server, all outgoing connections from a particular client or all outgoing connections to a server.

cutter ip-address port

Example: "cutter 200.1.2.3 80"

Cuts all connections to or from the specified ip-address/port pair. This allows the user to be a little more specific than the previous example and allows targetting of specific services on specific hosts.

cutter ip-address-1 port-1 ip-address-2

Example "cutter 200.1.2.3 22 10.10.0.45"

Cuts all connections between ip-address-2 and ip-address-1/port-1. This allows the user to cut connections between a specified "client" and a particular service on a specified host. Our example closes host 10.10.0.45s SSH connection to server 200.1.2.3.

cutter ip-address-1 port-1 ip-address-2 port-2

Example: "cutter 200.1.2.3 22 10.10.0.45 32451"

Cuts the specific connection between the two ip/port number pairs given.

IMPORTANT WARNING

Cutter has been designed for use as a administrators tool for Linux firewalls. Its use (as is, or modified) for any other purpose is not sanctioned by the author. So - do not use this tool as a parachute, or to dry your cat, chill meat, answer your phone, drive you car, teach your kids to read or attack other peoples computer systems or networks.

This software has been designed for "legal" and "appropriate" use by network security administrators and the like. It has been written as part of a larger Linux firewall project, targetting at controlling traffic from peer-to-peer software such as Kazaa, iMesh and others into and out of a private network. It is not designed as a tool for malicious use and the author in no way sanctions such use.

Users of the software should be aware that its actions are easily detectable using a number of readily available network monitoring tools, and it makes no attempt to disguise its actions. Malicious use of "cutter" could result in a jail sentance in a number of countries around the world.

cue2ogg is a script to bust up not-so-cute single-file CD rips. Basically, at least a few people have gotten into the habit of ripping a CD into a CUE file and a lossless format of their choice.

So, youll end up with WAV/CUE, APE/CUE, or FLAC/CUE sets. All the times (and possibly track names) are in the cue file, and all you want is individual tracks you can skip around and listen to.

Inspired by a similar CUE/APE->FLAC converter by HEx, this will give you split Ogg Vorbis tracks from a CUE/lossless set with a simple command:

cue2ogg.py filename.cue

All you need is python, a file to break up, and decoder binaries.

Dictator project is a Rapid Serial Visual Presentation (RSVP) on-screen text reader.
Dictator permits faster, easier on-screen reading of text using the method of Rapid Serial Visual Presentation (RSVP). Features include dynamic text flow, Unicode support, a bookmark manager, customizable Web references, customizable text import filters, fullscreen mode, and more.
The problem with these texts is that reading them on-screen the conventional way is a drag and printing them out is time-consuming, costly, and wasteful. Dictator provides an alternative approach called Rapid Serial Visual Presentation (RSVP) in which words are displayed consecutively in the same place at a user-controllable rate.
This method prevents unconscious re-reading of adjacent text and decreases the tendency of the reader to oralise the text, allowing for increased reading speeds. RSVP also permits the use of larger fonts for text display which improves text clarity. While it does take some getting used to, with a little practise you may find that reading with Dictator becomes faster and easier than reading from a book.
Main features:
- Rapid Serial Visual Presentation (RSVP) text file reading.
- Single word and multiword displays.
- Unicode support (with Unicode versions of wxPython only).
- Variable reading rate.
- Easy keyboard controls.
- Bookmark manager with automatic recall of last position in text.
- Dynamic text flow (rate related to word length, punctuation).
- Paragraph cues.
- Adjustable fonts and colours.
- Fullscreen mode.
- Text search.
- Customisable text filters allow scraping from PDF/html/Microsoft Word Documents.
- Customisable web queries on current word (e.g. look up definition).
- Open from clipboard.
- Open URL (via text filter only).

CDemu is a kernel module for Linux. It is designed to simulate a CD drive + CD with just simple cue/bin files, which are pretty common in the Windows world.
You can use it to watch an SVCD or mount the data track of an bin/cue. However, for watching an SVCD, we would recommend MPlayer which can play bin/cue images directly with the patch a friend and I made for it (more under History).
Status:
- Using CDemu on multi user systems should be safe now. Any user can mount an image in an empty CDemu slot while only the user (and root) can unmount a slot that is already in use.
- Many users have reported SMP issues (varying from lock ups to very poor performance). Weve had an user send us a threading patch to avoid locking issues, but it is 2.4-centric. So, before it can be added to CVS, it needs to be generalized to support 2.4 and 2.6. Unfortunately, none of the CDemu developers have access to SMP systems so the best testing we can do involves it looks good :). CDemu-0.6 final should resolve these issues.
- Looking ahead: CDemu was first created to support bin/cue images. Ideally, wed like to be able to support Nero (.nrg), Disc Juggler (.cdi), Clone CD (.ccd), etc... Anyone with spare time and spare patches would be appreciated.
Installation:
The install is quite simple:
extract the archive (release tarball):
$ tar -jxvf cdemu- .tar.bz2
checkout the code from cvs:
$ cvs -z3 -d:pserver:anonymous@cvs.sourceforge.net:/cvsroot/cdemu co -P cdemu
you need the source of your current running kernel.
/lib/modules/$(shell uname -r)/build/include needs to point at it.
build the module:
$ make
install the module and user space utilities:
$ sudo make install
now simply load the kernel module:
$ sudo modprobe cdemu
(no message should be displayed after running modprobe)
to load a bin/cue image:
$ cdemu 0 image.cue
$ mount /dev/cdemu/0 /mnt/cdrom
(some things may be different on your system, YMMV)
for more information, please review the help output:
$ cdemu -h
Enhancements:
- This version only supports kernel versions 2.6.16 and higher.
- The 2.4 series is no longer supported.
- cdemu now has file access like in a loop module.
- It should now work on amd64 and SMP systems.
- Support for .iso, .mds, .ccd, and .nrg images was added.
- Some documentation was added.
- Bugfixes were made.

GNU CD Input and Control Library (libcdio) encapsulates CD-ROM reading and control. The libcdio package contains a library which encapsulates CD-ROM reading and control. Applications wishing to be oblivious of the OS- and device-dependent properties of a CD-ROM can use this library.
Some support for on-disk CD-image types like CDRWINs BIN/CUE format, cdrdaos TOC format, and Neros NRG format is available. Therefore, applications that use this library also have the ability to read on-disk CD images as though they were CDs.
A library for working with ISO-9660 filesystems (libiso9660) is included. A generic interface for issuing MMC (multimedia commands) is also part of the libcdio library.
The cdparanoia library and cdparanoia command are included making this the only single-source cdparanoia that works on FreeBSD, cygwin, Solaris, BSDI as well as GNU/Linux.
Some uses of the library:
- Video CD authoring and ripping tools VCDImager
- VCD and/or CD-DA plugins for media players:
xine
videolans vlc.
gmerlin.
mplayerxp.
- kiso, a KDE GUI for creating, extracting and editing ISO 9660 images
- a Samba vfs module that that allows exporting a CD without mounting it
Utility programs in the libcdio package are:
cd-info
a program which displays CD information: number of tracks, CD-format and if possible basic information about the format. If libcddb is available, the cd-info program will display CDDB matches on CD-DA discs. And if a new enough version of libvcdinfo is available (from the vcdimager project), then cd-info shows basic VCD information.
cd-drive
a program which decribes CD-ROM/DVD drive characteristics
cd-paranoia
a program for extracting audio from a CD in a jitter- and error-tolerant way.
cd-read
a program for performing low-level block reading of a CD or CD image
cdda-player
a curses program using the audio controls to play a CD-DA through the audio output port.
iso-info
a program for displaying ISO-9660 information from an ISO-9660 image
iso-read
a program for extracting files from an ISO-9660 image.
Enhancements:
- A minor compilation problem was fixed.

xmms-cueinfo is a plugin for XMMS that adds support for reading cue files. Cue files describe what tracks a single audio file contains, including performer and title information.

This makes it possible to rip a full CD into a single audio file. (The reason people do this is because of the audible gaps that occur when the software switches between two files.

However, these gaps are generally shorter in unix-based operating systems than in Windows due to the simpler file I/O subsystem. There are also no-gap plugins for many players now, so there arent really any good reasons for ripping CDs like this nowadays.) xmms-cueinfo also makes it easy to seek to each track mentioned in the cue file.

Perl extension for a graphic user interface to cut pictures. The module is a mixed widget from Buttons, Labels, BrowseEntry, Entrys and Canvas widgets.

I hope the graphic user interface is simple enough to be understood without great declarations.

It can be used as an independent application or just like how any other widget. Try out the test.pl program.You can select between four cutting forms.

"rectangle", "oval", "circle" or "polygon"

In order to cut out pictures in circular form or ovally click with the left mouse button onto the upper left corner and hold the button pressed while the mouse is moved.
In order to cut pictures in polygon form you click with the left mouse button on the first point and draw the mouse to the next point. If you have drawn the last point you click with the right mouse button.

You can use all standard widget options.
