With the Personal Menu, you can hide the menus in Menus Toolbar (even the Menus Toolbar), and design your own menu with just few settings.
It also offers a History Button and a Bookmarks Button. You can set how many hitory items show in the menu, and what will happen when you middle/right click the buttons.
Version restrictions:
- The current version 2.3 has a known bug, which makes the option panel hangs when using Firefox 1.5.

Global Assassin is a text-based action game.

The Global Assassin game is a multiplayer, shoot-em-up game set in the first person, and yet its text-based.

The year is 2035, and robots have taken over the Earth. Most humans died during the invasion or were forced to flee the planet. You are part of a small resistance that has managed to survive underground and is now prepared to strike back.

As a trained assassin, your objective is to return to the Earths surface, stealthily move through the worlds major cities, and systematically rid the planet of its invaders.

The details of the game are as follows.

The battlefield consists of 20 cities around the globe.

These cities have been connected for your mission by an ellaborate portal system.

Use the portals to move between cities as you search for and destroy the robots.

You are armed with a gun, bullets, and grenades.

To successfully strike an invader, you and your target must occupy the same city at the precise moment you attack.

You can lay a mine in a given city, and the very next player to enter that city trips the mine.

You remain alive as long as you have health points.

Over time, you automatically earn back health points, bullets, and grenades.

This is a multiplayer game. You may or may not be the only assassin on the planet!

Global Village project is a gnome application designed to place a front-end, or graphical user interface onto the CLI interface of Xplanet, by Hari Nair.
Originally intended to create and update the desktop wallpaper in a gnome environment, showing a traditional rectangular projection of the planet Earth, the scope of the project has been expanded. Global Village now provides as many of the features of Xplanet as seem reasonable, and with the ability for plugins the scope is nearly limitless. But do take it with a grain of salt...
Current Status
Currently, Global Village is barely functional. It can be considered in the pre-alpha stage of development.
It can currently show a preview of the final image, and then display that image on the desktop at user specified intervals (in seconds), and has an icon in the notification area of the Gnome panel.
Plugins are semi-working, but undergoing a lot of change as I decide what they do adn dont need to be capable of. The idea is that plugins will manage all the extra features users require, like cloudmaps, marker and arc files.
Main features:
- Select a planet.
- Select a projection.
- Bodys North Type.
- Rotate the bodys North Pole
- The Zoom level
- The Suns glare
- Latitude and Longitude, which can be set as:
- North Pole
- South Pole
- Equator
- Random Latitude and Longitude
- Or any number of user configerable locations.

MySQL Global User Variables UDF is a MySQL extension to store persistent variables.

This shared library adds simple user functions to MySQL in order to keep persistent shared variables in memory. These variables and their values are available to all clients. Any data can be stored into these persistent variables, including BLOBs. Since updates are atomic and way faster than MEMORY tables, this is an easy and efficient way to handle counters and sequences.

Usage:

Storing a value

An unlimited number of user variables can be created, as long as memory is available.
The GLOBAL_STORE(, ) stores a new shared global variable.

Examples:

mysql> DO GLOBAL_STORE("online_users", 42);
mysql> DO GLOBAL_STORE("secret_key", "pajfUyfnd");

The GLOBAL_STORE() function always returns 1 unless an error occurred.

Fetching a value

Reading the value of a variable is the job of the GLOBAL_GET() function.
The value is returned, or NULL is the variable is undefined.

Example:

mysql> SELECT GLOBAL_GET("online_users;);
42

mysql> SELECT id FROM pxs WHERE secret_key = GLOBAL_GET("secret_key");
1

Atomic increments

A single function call can read the previous value, add an integer (that can be negative), and store the new value into the variable.

The function is GLOBAL_ADD(, ) and the return value is the new value of the variable.
Updates are always atomic, if the old value is 18 and you add 1, you will always get back 19.

Example:

mysql> DO GLOBAL_ADD("online_users", 1);
mysql> SELECT GLOBAL_ADD("online_users", -4);
39

If the value of a variable was a string, the new value is the increment:

mysql> SELECT GLOBAL_ADD("secret_key", 12);
12

Adding a value to an undefined variable returns NULL.
A handy variant is GLOBAL_ADDP(, ). GLOBAL_ADDP() is similar to GLOBAL_ADD() but returns the PREVIOUS value of the variable instead of the new one.

Example:

mysql> DO GLOBAL_SET("xxx", 10);
mysql> SELECT GLOBAL_ADDP("xxx", 1);
10
mysql> SELECT GLOBAL_ADDP("xxx", 1);
11

Installation:

On most systems, compiling and installing the library should be as simple as typing (as root):

make install

The shared library is installed as /usr/local/lib/udf_global_user_variables.so

If the base directory of your MySQL installation is not in /usr/local, just type:

make

and then copy udf_global_user_variables.so to the right location for UDFs on your system (maybe /usr/lib/).

The name of a variable is limited to 256 bytes. If that limit is too low for your specific application, just edit the MAX_NAME_LENGTH variable on top of the .c file and reinstall. Variable names can contain binary characters.

Values are limited to 65536 bytes. If that limit is too low for you, edit the MAX_VALUE_LENGTH variable and reinstall.
