Free directx support for wine 2005 06 13 software for linux

IEs for Linux project is a simple Bash Script program that installs Internet Explorer 6, 5.5 and 5 on Linux using Wine. The whole process is automatic and very easy.
What is the magic?
The magic of IEs4Linux is to use full browsers downloads instead of using that boring install process. The script automatically downloads full versions of IE from the Evolt Browser Archive. Then installation is done completely behind the scenes! You dont need to click on anything to install IE6, IE5.5 and IE5 - with FlashPlayer 8!
Who is the target public?
WebDesigners that want to move to Linux but still need to test their sites on IE. The IEs installations are smaller than usual because they include only the necessary files to have a good test browser (there is no Outlook, Media Player etc). Please, dont use any of these IEs to navigate!! Get Firefox!
Whats New in 2.0.5 Stable Release:
- The mirror for downloading MSIE was changed.
Whats New in 2.5 Beta 6 Development Release:
- New: Kommander GUI finished (advanced dialog)
- New: IE7 proxy configuration hack (see below)
- Improved: download output
- Improved: other programs should find IE now (as Jim suggested here)
- Improved: all temp files now go to ~/.ies4linux/tmp to avoid complications
- Other bug fixes

explosions demo project is a SDL-based toy with fireworks in 3D space and neat visual effects.

"Explosions" is a simple SDL-based demo written in C which displays a faux-3D environment with small sprites.

Using the mouse, you can cause little sparks (or fireworks) to appear. Using the keyboard, you can change the angle of viewing.

You can also toggle a number of nifty effects, like blur, fade, dissolve, rotation and zoom.

The C source-code is fully commented, and should be useful for learning some simple SDL and interesting effects code.

Teeter Torture project is a simple shooting game (similar to "Space Invaders", "Galaga" or "Galaxian"), but with a unique twist.

Your cannon is sitting atop a teeter totter. If it leans too far in either direction, a barrel of TNT explodes!

"Weight monsters" appear at the top of the screen, and randomly fall towards the teeter totter. If they attach to it, theyll weigh it down, making it more difficult to keep it balanced. (If they hit the cannon, it explodes and you lose a life.)

Note:This is New Breed Softwares rendition of a classic arcade game prototype of the same name, created in 1982 by Larry Hutcherson of Exidy.

mpodder is a simple command line based podcast receiving (podcatching) tool. mpodder is written in perl and should run quite happily on Linux, the BSDs etc.

The intent is for mpodder to be called from cron. It will notify the user of new content by email or a kdialog/xmessage popup. mpoddercan download only feed items from the last n days, and feeds can be brought up to date withouot having to download all old items (using the "catchup" command).

Examples

Listing current feeds

To see what feeds mpodder is currently looking at, use the listoperation:

% mpodder list
http://www.lugradio.org/episodes.rss
http://www.thepodcastnetwork.com/linuxuser/feed/
http://downloads.bbc.co.uk/rmhttp/downloadtrial/worldservice/godigital/rss.xml
http://radio.linuxquestions.org/syndicate/lqpodcast.php
http://feeds.feedburner.com/techpodcasts
http://linux.quicksurf.com/wp-rss2.php?cat=78
http://slashdotreview.com/wp-rss2.php
http://feeds.feedburner.com/twit
http://www.joshmcadams.com/perlcast/index.xml

If you provide a second parameter, the list will be filtered. All filteres in mpodder are using perl style regular expressions:

% mpodder list linux
http://www.thepodcastnetwork.com/linuxuser/feed/
http://radio.linuxquestions.org/syndicate/lqpodcast.php
http://linux.quicksurf.com/wp-rss2.php?cat=78

Adding feeds

Adding a feed to mpodder is simple, just use the add operation, followed by the URL of the feed:

% mpodder add http://lugradio.org/episodes.rss

Removing feeds

To remove a feed, use the remove parameter and a filter. All feeds matching the filter will be removed

% mpodder remove lugradio

Removed feed: http://www.lugradio.org/episodes.rss

Removed 1 feeds from list

Fetching feeds

Fetching everything (all new items in all feeds) is the default operation of mpodder. To do this simply omit any parameters on the command line:

% mpodder

You can specify a filter to only download feeds whose URL matches the filter:

% mpodder fetch lugradio

Catching up feeds

If youve just added a new feed, but dont want to download all the items in the feed, use the catchup operation. The parameter is a filter pm the URL of the feed:

% mpodder catchup lugradio

Caught up with 3 feeds

Checking what would be done

Most operations in mpodder can be simulated using the --pretend option. This is like -n in GNU make. Instead of actually doing the operation that is requested, a message is printed saying what would be done if the --pretend option were removed:

% mpodder --pretend fetch lugradio

would fetch: http://lugmirror.pcproff.com/lugradio-s2e17-060605-high.mp3

Getting more information on what mpodder is doing

The --verbose and --debug=n options can be used to make mpodder print out more information that usual about what it is doing. Nice for the curious. The parameter to --debug is an integer from 1 to 10.

Inline-Support is a Perl module created to support information for Inline.pm and related modules.
This document contains all of the latest support information for Inline.pm and the recognized Inline Language Support Modules (ILSMs) available on CPAN.
SUPPORTED LANGUAGES
The most important language that Inline supports is C. That is because Perl itself is written in C. By giving a your Perl scripts access to C, you in effect give them access to the entire glorious internals of Perl.
As of this writing, Inline also supports:
- C++
- Java
- Python
- Tcl
- Assembly
- CPR
- And even Inline::Foo!
Projects that I would most like to see happen in the year 2001 are:
- Fortran
- Ruby
- Lisp
- Guile
- Bash
- Perl4
SUPPORTED PLATFORMS
Inline::C should work anywhere that CPAN extension modules (those that use XS) can be installed, using the typical install format of:
perl Makefile.PL
make
make test
make install
It has been tested on many Unix and Windows variants.
Enhancements:
- Perl

fortune-hitchhiker project consists of quotes from the "Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy".


"Zaphod grinned two manic grins, sauntered over to the bar
and bought most of it."

-- Zaphod in paradise.

To install these fortunes, copy the .dat file to your fortunes directory.
(possibly /usr/games/lib/fortunes)

To use it, simply type:

# fortune hitchhiker
