FLV::Info is an extract metadata from Flash Video files.

SYNOPSIS

use FLV::Info;
my $reader = FLV::Info->new();
$reader->parse(video.flv);

This module reads Macromedia FLV files and reports metadata about those files.

The RTF to HTML convertor converts RTF files (in Windows-1250 encoding) to HTML file (in ISO-8859-2 encoding).
Main features:
- Bullets
- Superscript and subscript look bad in html document.
- Subscript is transformed to number. Superscript is transformed to "[number]".
- Text: bold, italic and underline
- Footnotes
- Alignments: left, center and right. "Justify" alignment

- Tables
- Links: text "aaa@bbb.cz" and "http://www.aaaaaa.cz" convert
- to html links.
- Unicode: Commentary with the character
- name is added to the non ISO Latin2 characters. The program htm2htm will
- convert html with commentaries to the unicode.
- Rtf commands sa and sb.
- (sa>0) or (sb>0) New paragraph - "p" html command
- (sa=0) and (sb=0) New paragraph (left aligned text) "< br >"
Enhancements:
- Processing was fixed in the RTF commands "fldinst", "fldrslt", "plain", "bkmkstart", and "bkmend".

Transfer to Media Device is a script that creates a new Playlist Right Click Menu item for transferring selected playlist items to your iPod via the Media Device Browser.
This script now also supports generic copy to operation for USB mass storage devices. Currently the script will prompt for a destination directory on first copy, in the future this setting will be saved in a configuration file.
This script works with amaroK 1.3beta3 and above.
Usage:
Run from the amaroK script manager. A new menu item will appear in the Playlist right mouse button menu.
Select files in the playlist and Right click -> Transfer to -> iPod for transfering to an iPod.
Select files in the playlist and Right click -> Transfer to -> USB Device for transfering to a USB device.
Enhancements:
- Add support for Creative Nomad Jukebox devices using the kionjb kioslave. Thanks to Ralf T for the patch.

Html to Xhtml Convertor is a straight-forward Perl script to convert HTML pages into XHTML pages.
It can process batches of files, convert Windows/Unix/Mac line breaks, and deal with attribute minimization, quoting of attribute values, and more.
Installation:
To install, simply run the following command as root: make install
Alternatively, simply move the htx file to wherever you would like. The command above installs it to /usr/local/bin/
Usage:
Use the following command to get usage information after installing:
htx --help
or if the htx file is in the current directory, try:
./htx --help
Example use:
htx --dos --verbose index.html index2.html
That will take a file with DOS line breaks, index.html, convert it
to XHTML as best it can and save the result as index2.html
Version restrictions:
- oes not check for closing < /p >, < /li > or other block-level tags.
- Assumes there are no < or > which are not part of tags, use < and >
- Does not distingish between block and inline tags.
Enhancements:
- Added the --tty option to dump output to STDOUT rather than a file
- Added detection of old ICRA data
- Improved handling of single quoted attribute values
- Removed updating of Pico version
- Fixed a typo with the years in the Changelog file
- Did a couple of very minor internal changes

C to C++ is a Python script that converts C code to C++ code.

The main program is ctocpp.py that performs successive stages for converting C to C++. A script, ctocpp gives it as parameter to the python interpreter with options you add.

The archive also includes scripts that may help you:

- mover.py changes the location of a project.
- search.py performs searches and replacements.
- mkheader.py corrects a header file.

The C to C++ program with all the python sources is under the GNU GPL license,
that minds you may use it and distribute it freely, providing the copyright is unchanged.

See at the COPYING file for details. This doesnt mean GNU encourages you to convert your C sources to C++. In fact, most of the tools here included may help C programmers outside C++ conversion.

Installing:

Type:
./configure
./setup
mkdoc ...this will generate an html and info manuals.

Booting Ubuntu To RAM is an article aims to document the process of creating a customized Ubuntu that loads an image from the hard disk to RAM, then boots an entire Ubuntu session out of RAM. It is intended for intermediate to advanced Ubuntu users who are familiar with the shell, and may have limited experience customizing the livecd (LiveCDCustomization) and shell scripting. We will customize a LiveCD and copy it to the hard drive, and make a few modifications to bootup scripts so that it copies to RAM via our good friend tmpfs.
WARNING: The author asserts that this procedure works for him, but cannot guarantee that this procedure works for anyone else. Although this procedure is meant to be 100% safe, it is feasible that there may be mistakes, or a chance of misunderstanding the instructions in a manner that causes loss of data. Please make a backup and do not attempt on mission critical systems. Read through this article thoroughly, and do not attempt if you do not comprehend or feel comfortable about any of the instructions!
CAUTION: I hope this is intuitively obvious, but Ill humor you and state it bluntly: Changes you make under the live session are NOT saved and WILL BE LOST when you reboot or shut down. Dont save anything important to the "home directory" and expect it to still be around! If you want to save data permanently, mount a permanent medium (such as your hard drive), plug in a thumbdrive, or use some network functionality built into Ubuntu to save your data to a non-volatile destination.
There are many cases where one would like to boot Ubuntu to RAM:
- Performance: The desktop performance is dramatically improved. A 400MB squashed filesystem in RAM, that holds 1200MB of data, is read back on a 1.6GHz Core Duo in about 3 seconds, including decompression time.
- Power, Noise, Durability: Although modern hard disks dont use much power compared to other system components, this may still be important for some. In laptops, hard disks are often the noisiest components, so this setup can reduce system noise. With the hard disk spun down, a laptop can potentially withstand greater shocks without damage.
- Abrupt poweroff: Since the hard disk is only momentarily used in read-only mode during boot, then never touched again, there are few or no negative consequences of an abrupt poweroff. If a system is used where power is inconsistent, or the system is regularly used in a context where fast shutoffs are required, this is very handy.
- Privacy: Anything you do in this session are lost when you reboot or power off. This is great for kiosks or other systems where permanent modification are not desired. (Note that by default the livecd user has full sudo access, so potentially a malicious user can still make permanent changes by mounting the hard drive and following this HOWTO)
