Free hey good looking software for linux

pytimeago is a human-oriented representation of time deltas, a Python library.

First, I shall define what time delta is. Since Δ generally means “difference”, we take time delta to stand for difference between two events in time. Quite common, however, is to have the current time for the second event. In pytimeago we deal with time deltas from such a perspective.

Quite possibly, you can make use of this library if your application displays some dynamically generated items to the user, and you are looking for a good way to present information on how long ago specific item was created/processed/whatever.

Below is small code snippet demonstrating how simple it is to embed pytimeago:

from pytimeago.english import english
from time import time, sleep

message = queue.getNextMessage()
delta = time() - message.arrived_time
print "Message arrived %s" % english(delta)

Prints, e.g.
Message arrived 15mins ago

As you see, pytimeago is package, and has individual modules for every language supported. As of 2006-08-13 the only supported language is English. However, you can take a look at rather trivial implementation of English engine, write one for your language, and send it to to me (email at the bottom of page).

Every language should come with a set of doctests (I prefer them to casual unit tests), just like the English version does. Dont be too verbose, but check essential cases.

Tux Typing is an educational typing tutor for children. Tux Typing features several different types of gameplay, at a variety of difficulty levels.

Tuxtyping 2 is almost a complete rewrite! It has something for everyone no matter who or where you are! If youre a gamer it even comes with two built in easter eggs! A large amount of time was spent with four goals in mind, make the game code clean, make it easy to translate, make it more fun to play and make it a better tool for those who have the more serious side of typing in mind. Tuxtyping 2 runs better and more consistently on a larger range of machines.

Developers
Tuxtyping 2 has a brand new file structure. The code itself has undergone deep surgery. Its faster, cleaner and easier to understand!

Teachers
Teachers will find the new Tuxtyping to be a more moldable tool they can use in there classrooms. It is easier now (and will become even easier) to group the types of exercises, words and characters into a lesson! We need alot of help here, ideas for the lessons/tutorials seem to be few and far between. (tho Jess does have some good ones!) Wed still like more.

Parents
Your kids will play for more than minutes now and learning all the time! Tuxtyping has lots of new toys to play with for them! (But dont let me catch you playing after the kids go to bed!)

Kids
New game! Comet Zap! Tux is challenged with the task of protecting 9 cities! More challenging game play in all the games! Based on Tux of Math Command another Tux4Kids game.

French Danish Armenian! (hey we do them all!)
Tuxtyping is much less tedious to translate now since most on screen graphical text is generated from text files. Text in the game can be translated by editing one file. A Theming How-To is available at our internationalization center.

Mercator Grid project is a real time strategy game using GIS data.
Mercator Grid is a networked real-time strategy game that incorporates actual GIS map terrain and NATO map symbology (MIL-STD-2500B).
It can be configured to include several player roles, including fire team leaders and commanders.
Enhancements:
- Larger scale map: this really helps the playability of the game.
- Units are now much easier to command.
- The larger scale and the anti-aliasing really looks good even when close up.
- The roads are now wider and anti-aliased.
- This makes the roads look beter and makes it easier to command the units along roads.
- Rivers and Bridges: MG terrain now includes rivers.
- This adds significantly to the games look and strategy dynamic.
- Commanders must now consider the rivers when planning their tactics.
- Good commanders will use the rivers to their advantage.
