Hotclient provides an authentication client for users of Hotwire Internet connections.

Currently hotclient is available as

Hotwire - Internet Private Limited is an ISP which provides 24-7 always on Internet connections. You can visit them at http://www.hotwireindia.net. I do not claim any affiliation with Hotwire or Primus Telecommunications India Limited (the parent company) or anybody else thereof. I am just a user of Hotwire services and promise to abide by their terms of usage/service.

Why Hotclient?
People would ask wasnt the authentication software provided by Primus good enough. Well their software can be got from their website at http://hotwireindia.net/Hotwire.exe. Other clients are available as well at the below links

But I have a actual 24-7 connection. Whenever the network fails or the server goes down for a reboot all these clients just exit out of the program.
Well .....Hello! Im not at my desk at all times. What I needed was a client which picks up the connection as and when it becomes available again so that my downloads would continue. Hence the first version for Linux was born (Im better at gcc than VC, besides i dont actually have a valid copy of VC). The Perl version started and was finished on the same day.

Once I did that well I just went ahead and did the same for Windows. Both the GCC and Win-GCC versions are shell based programs.

Knotview software is a crossing between a concept mapper, a wiki and a database. The main idea behind it is to split information into small chunks (knots) and make links between them.

Visual organisation is not enforced : links can be drawn arbitrarily. With Knotview, only the user decides how the information must be shown. Creating links pointing towards files or url is possible and make it very easy to gather scattered information into a single place. Knotview can be used as a powerful bookmark manager, a mind mapper, a small database, and much more.

What distinguishes Knotview from other concept- and mind-mapping software if the fact that it separates contents from appearance. A knot consist of a title, some arbitrary properties (e.g. urls) and an associated text. It is stored in a database (kdb) which does not include any displaying informations. Display is left to a client application, and saved in a separate file (kv).

This allows some useful behaviour, such as displaying several times the same knot, in the same application. Nothing preventsdoing the same with different applications : the same knot can be displayed in a graph, and simultaneously in a todo-list software. This last feature is still planned, unfortunately. A very important feature of knotview is the ability to show the same information differently, depending on the users needs. A todo-list will be shown in a list view widget, whereas a brainstorming needs a powerful graphical interface.

Each knot can be assigned one or more user-defined categories. This allows to set shorts of type to knots. As for now, only displayed knot color is affected, but much more can be done with this. A good example where this is useful is a dictionary. Nouns, verbs, adjectives can be affected different categories. Other categories can be used to distinguish between feminine and masculine (if applicable).

More examples are given in the tutorials.

Camaelon is a theme engine for GNUstep.

While very good when you works with it, it looks a bit old with the current playskool interfaces avalaible everywhere. So I wrote this theme bundle, Camaelon, with the idea of providing a fresher look, while remaining good on term of useability.

Actually its not very configurable (you need to change values in the source code for gradients/colors).

Installation

You need to patch some files in the GNUstep -gui sources. Go in the gui/Source directory of your local GNUsteps sources, and apply the provided patch file, themes.patch :
