Ghost for Linux project is a hard disk and partition imaging and cloning tool similar to "Norton Ghost" and by Symantec.
The created images are optionally compressed, and they can be stored on a local hard drive or transferred to an anonymous FTP server.
A drive can be cloned using the "ClicknClone" function. g4l supports file splitting if the local filesystem does not support writing files >2GB. The included kernel supports ATA, serial-ATA, and SCSI drives.
Common network cards are supported. It is packaged as a bootable CD image with an ncurses GUI for easy use.
Enhancements:
- This release adds new kernels and syslinux, plus other support program options.
- It adds ntfs-3g to support writing to ntfs partitions for the local backup images and adds ntfsclone backups to local drives or partitions.
- Users can now copy the files from the CD image to a flash drive that has been made bootable, and it will then work from flash.

Semi-Batched-Image-Editor program is an image editor for Linux.
The problem: Got a huge amount of scanned pictures (from your digital camera, or as Picture-CD from your favorite lab)? Want to rotate some of them to the right orientation? Select a good detail? Scale to a given output format? Want to do this with as less as possible mouseclicks?
The solution: SeBIE - the Semi-Batched-Image-Editor.
Main features:
- Input filename selection via regular expressions.
- Create output filename via regular expression and substitution.
- Select image details with a given proportion.
- Scale to a given output format when saving.
- Apply some color correction (at the moment only gamma curve correction is possible).
Why Semi-Batched? Because SeBIE is not fully batch processing. A rest of user interaction is still needed (and wanted).
SeBIE is written in C using the gdk/gtk (glib-2.0.7/gtk+-2.0.9) toolkit.
Installation:
Get the source distribution from the download page and unpack:
tar -xvzf sebie-0.9.tar.gz
Change to the sebie source directory:
cd sebie-0.9
Run the configure script:
./configure
Build the executable:
make all
And install it as root:
make install
Start the application using the command sebie....
Enhancements:
- Add events delete_event and destroy to main window.
- Handling resizable drawing area.
