JSON::PC is a fast JSON parser and converter.

SYNOPSIS

use JSON::PC;

my $json = new JSON::PC;

my $obj = $json->parse(q/{foo => [1,2,3], bar => "perl"}/);

print $json->convert($obj);

# or

$obj = JSON::PC::parse(q/{foo => [1,2,3], bar => "perl"}/);
print JSON::PC::convert($obj);

METHODS

Except new method, all methods are object method.

new()

new(%option)

This is a class method and returns new JSON::PC object.

parse($str)

parse($str, $options_ref)

takes JSON foramt string and returns perl data structure. jsonToObj is an alias.

convert($obj)

convert($obj, $options_ref)

takes perl data structure and returns JSON foramt string. objToJson is an alias.

autoconv($int)

This is an accessor to autoconv. See "AUTOCONVERT" for more info.

skipinvalid($int)

convert() does die() when it encounters any invalid data (for instance, coderefs). If skipinvalid is set with true(integer), the function convets these invalid data into JSON formats null.

execcoderef($int)

convert() does die() when it encounters any code reference. However, if execcoderef is set with true(integer), executes the coderef and uses returned value.

pretty($int)

This is an accessor to pretty. When prrety is true(integer), objToJson() returns prrety-printed string. See "PRETTY PRINTING" for more info.

indent($int)

This is an accessor to indent. See "PRETTY PRINTING" for more info.

delimiter($int)

This is an accessor to delimiter. See "PRETTY PRINTING" for more info.

unmapping($int)

This is an accessor to unmapping. See "UNMAPPING OPTION" for more info.

keysort($int)

keysort($code_ref)

This is an accessor to keysort. See "HASH KEY SORT ORDER" for more info.

convblessed($int)

This is an accessor to convblessed. See "BLESSED OBJECT" for more info.

selfconvert($int)

This is an accessor to selfconvert. See "BLESSED OBJECT" for more info.

singlequote($int)

This is an accessor to singlequote. See "CONVERT WITH SINGLE QUOTES" for more info.

barekey($int)

You can set a true(integer) to parse bare keys of objects.

quotapos($int)

You can set a true(integer) to parse any keys and values quoted by single quotations.

utf8($int)

This is an accessor to utf8. You can set a true(integer) to set UTF8 flag into strings contain utf8.

Flash for Linux project is a development environment for Macromedia Flash, a format widely used for web applications and vector animation.
F4L is in such early stages of design that it is not recommended for use by people without knowlege of C++, QT, Ming, etc.
F4L is a clone, or imitation, of a Macromedia, Inc. product called Flash. The most current version of Flash is MX 2004. Flash is designed to help people make programs that can be used on any computer and that can be distributed over the Internet.
Flash can even be easily included in a web page. Most browsers include a plug-in that allows users to view Flash content in web pages. If you do not have this plug-in, you may wish to visit http://www.macromedia.com/downloads/ to get it for Mozilla (or compatible), Opera, Internet Explorer, AOL, OS X, OS 9, Pocket PC, OS/2, Irix, Solaris, or HP-UX for free.
Flash offers easy development of professional applications. Flash development is based mostly on a Graphical User Interface (GUI). Through the GUI, a developer can draw their application on the screen. Drawings can be converted to animations, buttons, and other features with the development environments menus and dialog boxes.
Competing methods of development, such as C++, Java or JavaScript, require technical knowledge of a special programming language and mathematics. A Flash applications GUI features are extremely limited compared to a programming language based project. To compensate for this weakness, Macromedia added Action Scripts to Flash.
Action Scripts are a sort of programming language, but there are only a few commands to learn, and they are selected off a menu. Action Scripting is equivalent to programming a graphing calculator with BASIC; it should not take you more than a few days to learn, if you have the patience to read boring instructions.
While Flash can be developed with very few Action Scripts, the scripts add to the interactivity of the application. Most web sites using Flash do not use Action Scripts intensively, with the exception of games. Flash can also work with JavaScript.
Enhancements:
- The program can now export simple objects like images, lines, rectangles, ovals (ellipses), and text.
- The "locate" command is used to find the TrueType font files needed for text.

Fruit Land is the first PC-game that has been produced by MesSoft and you can get it for free! The game was programmed in C using DJGPP, RHIDE and Allegro. The first version of the game appeared in 1998 on the MSX, an old 8-bit home-computer and was fully coded in assembly language.

The graphics were done by Patrick Smeets and Jorrith Schaap composed the music. The game was published by STUFF, a group that produces the diskmagazine FutureDisk, which means at least 250 people have the game.

The PC-version of Fruit Land is not a straight conversion of the MSX-version, only the graphics and the level-data were ripped out of it. The game totally been reprogrammed in C without looking at the original Z80 Assembly source (which wasnt possible because I lost the source of the game) and it only took me less than 2 weeks to complete the game.

The only things that are missing in the PC-version are the musics and the sound-effects. Maybe Ill release a second version if someones kind enough to send me some midi-songs and samples...

Some technical information about the game. The game uses MODE-X with a resolution of 256*224. Thats pretty weird (at least for PC), but since the first version of game was done on an MSX (which has a resolution of 256*212) this was the easiest way to do it. Offcourse I could scale all images, but then the images become very ugly.

Anyway, I was very happy when I saw that resolution in the Allegro-documention because it made things easier for me. The graphics were ripped from the MSX-version, the only tricky thing about it was that I had to hack the game to get the right palette (I lost the original source code...).

ComicReader is an advanced software program which can download daily comics to your pc.

The ComicReader is a program to read daily comics like Garfield, Dilbert, Userfriendly and lots of other daily comics. The comicreader has unique features like autodownloading the comics, central managed comic definitions and the option to email comics.

The current version of ComicReader is 0.1, which contains many bugs and is missing a lot of features. I urge, however, to check it out and let me know what you think of it.
