Free file extractor software for linux

XML Extractor is a set of tools for transforming XML-like markup into entities or well-formed XML files.

The sourcecode XML metadata extraction tools are intended to be used for extracting and transforming XML-like markup embedded in source code comments into syntactically correct external entities or well-formed XML files.

This can be used for JavaDoc-like code annotation, providing structured comments, or even embedding metadata used by the build process or configuration management tools.

ccextractor project is a fast closed captions extractor for MPEG files.
ccextractor is mostly a mildly optimized C port of McPoodles excellent but painfully slow Perl script SCC_RIP. It lets you rip the raw closed captions (read: subtitles) data from a number of sources, such as DVD or replay TV.
As an added bonus compared to the original SCC_RIP, ccextractor can extract subtitles from the HDTV transport streams that are becoming more common.
At this point ccextractor extracts the line 21 captions (which must legally be present for a number of years until the transition to digital is complete). Note that in most .ts you can find, there will be subtitle data for both analog (EIA-608) decoders and digital (EIA-708). AFAIK there are not
freely available EIA-708 rippers.
Anyway, since line 21 captions will be available for some time, we have time to build a decent 708 ripper.
Basic Usage

You will need his tools to use ccextrators output.
The basic idea is that you get the raw closed caption dump from ccextractor.
Then you need other tools (which vary depending on what you want to do) to continue processing.
To get a transcript from a .ts file in .srt (I assume this will be the most common use) do this:
ccextractor -12 input_file
-12 means "extract both subtitle tracks" (actually technical names are fields but tracks is easier to understand). 1 is almost always English. 2 is Spanish in HBO (at least in the few samples Ive seen) but could be anything. Just extract both of them and check.
Example: cctractor -12 house315.ts
ccextractor will create two files, called house315_1.bin and _2.
Then use McPoodles RAW2SCC to create a temporary SCC file (means Scenerist, which is originally the native format for some program, its not important here).
raw2scc house315_1.bin
This creates house315_1.scc
From this .scc file, you can get the final .srt by using McPoodles CCASDI:
ccasdi -s house315_1.srt
Which looks like this (just 3 random lines shown).

Enhancements:
- This release adds support for DVR-MS files.
- It improves the CC decoder.
- There are several bugfixes, a major speed boost (20%-40%), improved timing for non-TS files, improved format autodetection, and other minor improvements.

X File Explorer (Xfe) is an MS-Explorer like file manager for X. X File Explorer is based on the popular, but discontinued, X Win Commander, originally developed by Maxim Baranov.
Xfe aims to be the file manager of choice for all the Unix addicts!
Why another file manager when the excellent Konqueror or Nautilus exist on Linux systems? The answer is quite simple : these file managers are very good, features rich and look wonderful, but they are like a brontosaurus when you are a console addict and only want to copy some files or delete it. Another problem is that they require either the whole Gnome or KDE desktops to be installed on your system!
On the contrary, Xfe is small, very rapid and only requires the FOX library to be fully functional. It can be launched from the command line in a fraction of second, and can efficiently complete the set of command line tools.
Main features:
- Four different file manager styles (one panel, two panels, tree list and one panel, tree list and two panels)
- Integrated text viewer (X File View, xfv)
- Integrated RPM viewer / installer / uninstaller (X File Query, xfq)
- Status line
- File associations
- Auto save registry
- Right mouse click pop-up menu in tree list and file list
- Change file(s) attributes
- Mount/Unmount devices (for Linux only)
- Toolbar
- Bookmarks (up to 20)
- Color schemes (GNOME, KDE, Windows...)
- Drag and Drop ( ctrl -> copy, shift -> move, alt -> symlink )
- Create / Extract archives (tar, zip, gzip, bzip2, compress formats are supported)
- Tool tips for long file names
- Progress bars or dialogs for lengthy file operations
- Image preview as thumbnails
- Ability to enqueue multimedia files (open command)

File::stat is a by-name interface to Perls built-in stat() functions.

SYNOPSIS

use File::stat;
$st = stat($file) or die "No $file: $!";
if ( ($st->mode & 0111) && $st->nlink > 1) ) {
print "$file is executable with lotsa linksn";
}

use File::stat qw(:FIELDS);
stat($file) or die "No $file: $!";
if ( ($st_mode & 0111) && $st_nlink > 1) ) {
print "$file is executable with lotsa linksn";
}

This modules default exports override the core stat() and lstat() functions, replacing them with versions that return "File::stat" objects. This object has methods that return the similarly named structure field name from the stat(2) function; namely, dev, ino, mode, nlink, uid, gid, rdev, size, atime, mtime, ctime, blksize, and blocks.

You may also import all the structure fields directly into your namespace as regular variables using the :FIELDS import tag. (Note that this still overrides your stat() and lstat() functions.) Access these fields as variables named with a preceding st_ in front their method names. Thus, $stat_obj->dev() corresponds to $st_dev if you import the fields.

To access this functionality without the core overrides, pass the use an empty import list, and then access function functions with their full qualified names. On the other hand, the built-ins are still available via the CORE:: pseudo-package.

Archive::SelfExtract is a Perl module to bundle compressed archives with Perl code.

SYNOPSIS

use Archive::SelfExtract;

# writes output script to STDOUT
Archive::SelfExtract::createExtractor( "perlcode.pl", "somefiles.zip" );

# with various options:
Archive::SelfExtract::createExtractor( "perlcode.pl", "somefiles.zip",
perlbin => "/opt/perl58/bin/perl",
output_fh => $someFileHandle,
);
See also the command line tool, mkselfextract.

Archive::SelfExtract allows you create Perl programs out of compressed zip archives. Given a piece of code and an archive, it creates a single file which, when run, unpacks the archive and then runs the code.

This module provides a function for creating a self-extractor script, a function to unpack the archive, and utility functions for wrapped programs

File::Xcopy can copy files after comparing them.
SYNOPSIS
use File::Xcopy;
my $fx = new File::Xcopy;
$fx->from_dir("/from/dir");
$fx->to_dir("/to/dir");
$fx->fn_pat((.pl|.txt)$); # files with pl & txt extensions
$fx->param(s,1); # search recursively to sub dirs
$fx->param(verbose,1); # search recursively to sub dirs
$fx->param(log_file,/my/log/file.log);
my ($sr, $rr) = $fx->get_stat;
$fx->xcopy; # or
$fx->execute(copy);
# the same with short name
$fx->xcp("from_dir", "to_dir", "file_name_pattern");
The File::Xcopy module provides two basic functions, xcopy and xmove, which are useful for coping and/or moving a file or files in a directory from one place to another. It mimics some of behaviours of xcopy in DOS but with more functions and options.
The differences between xcopy and copy are:
- xcopy searches files based on file name pattern if the pattern is specified.
- xcopy compares the timestamp and size of a file before it copies.
- xcopy takes different actions if you tell it to.
The Constructor new(%arg)
Without any input, i.e., new(), the constructor generates an empty object with default values for its parameters.
If any argument is provided, the constructor expects them in the name and value pairs, i.e., in a hash array.

php file browser is a simple Web-based file browser.
php file browser allows the user to upload files, delete, copy, make directories and paste files and directories. It has two access levels: one for admin, one for guest.
Access for guests can be optionally password protected.
Enhancements:
- A PHP file source viewer was added.
- The directory lister now works much faster than in older versions.
- Big changes were made in the class files.
