Free intermediate scrutiny software for linux

This tutorial assumes no previous knowledge of scripting or programming, but progresses rapidly toward an intermediate/advanced level of instruction . . . all the while sneaking in little snippets of UNIX wisdom and lore.
Advanced Bash Scripting Guide serves as a textbook, a manual for self-study, and a reference and source of knowledge on shell scripting techniques.
The exercises and heavily-commented examples invite active reader participation, under the premise that the only way to really learn scripting is to write scripts.
Enhancements:
- This release adds a cross-linked index (the final missing critical feature in this project), other new material (including a new appendix and a couple of new example scripts), and bugfixes.
- This is an important update.

IPTables-tutorials aim is to explain iptables in a complete and simple way. The iptables-tutorial is currently rather stable, and contains information on all the currently available matches and targets (in kernel), as well as a couple of complete example scripts and explanations. It contains a complete section on iptables syntax, as well as other interesting commands such as iptables-save and iptables-restore.

The tutorial has recently been under heavy scrutiny and updating, as can be seen in this, the latest version of the tutorial. It is now also available in bookform from Lulu.com. If you feel like contributing or donating to the author of this tutorial, please do buy the book! Thank you!

If you need help, you are better off by asking the netfilter mailing list which you can reach at netfilter at lists.netfilter.org. For more information on this, visit the netfilter mailinglist page. You may also contact the linuxsecurity mailing list at security-discuss AT linuxsecurity dotcom. Both are fairly large, and should be able to help you much much better than I can.

Lightfeather is a 3D engine for Linux, Mac OS X and Windows. Lightfeather project is designed to be easy to use but still take advantage of the features of modern graphics hardware.
The zlib/libpng license under which it is distributed allows you to use it for any purpose whatsoever including commercial projects without the need to redistribute your changes in any form or even mentioning that you use it (although that would be nice, of course).
To use Lightfeather you need to be proficient in c++ programming (a python binding is in the works at the moment so you might be able to use Lightfeather with python in the future). It is geared towards intermediate to professional programmers and not towards beginners.
Before you start working with Lightfeather you should AT LEAST read the Modelconverter and the Renderpasses information in the documentation submenu.
If you want to help with Lightfeathers development, there are lots of possibilities to do so. You could, for example, submit patches, contribute models for the test and example applications or write tutorials. If you want to work on the engine but dont know where to start look into the todo/request list. Help in any form is always very welcome.
Enhancements:
- It is now possible to render the same scene through different cameras into multiple windows.
- A filesystem handler interface has been added, which allows the use of a database or an FTP server like a normal filesystem.
- Resources can be grouped for easier handling.
- Users can integrate their own data into the engines lfm file format.
- Many more changes were made and lots of bugs were fixed.

Designer Framework provides a highly customizable e-commerce framework.

It automatically builds e-commerce interfaces that support a products contraints and properties and can be used to model the product to be sold, automatically and dynamically generating different output formats depending on the generator used.

It includes a Java modelling application, a finite state machine described in XML as intermediate format for the customer interface, and XSLT scripts for transforming the state machine into the final interface.Designer Framework is a highly customizable e-commerce framework.

CodeInvaders Challenge project is a Java-based, real-time programming game based on the Eclipse platform.

CodeInvaders Challenge is a Java™-based, real-time programming game based on the Eclipse platform. It uses the Eclipse platform and a simple API that allows users unfamiliar with Java to easily compete while they learn the language.

CodeInvaders Challenge gives users the opportunity to pit their Java programming skills against other players in a battle of space conquest. Each player writes a Java class that represents and controls a spaceship. Each ship (class) is placed in a simulated battle along with ships from other players.

The game puts up to six spaceships together in a match and places each of them in a random location with the same amount of energy. The spaceship class allows each player to control his ships thrusters and weapons. The ship can move around to collect energy, attack opponents, and bring energy back to its home planet. Points are awarded for different actions, and the player with the most points wins.

When used in a tournament, CodeInvaders Challenge allows direct, real-time competition between teams. Each player can submit his intermediate solutions and test against the submitted ships from other players. This competition allows each player to learn from the strategies of other players and modify his ship appropriately. After the final submission from each player, the final winner can be found by running a tournament consisting of several rounds and eliminations.

The Amsterdam Compiler Kit or in short just ACK, is a fast, lightweight and retargetable compiler suite and toolchain written by Andrew Tanenbaum and Ceriel Jacobs, and was Minix native toolchain. The ACK was originally closed-source software (that allowed binaries to be distributed for Minix as a special case), but in April 2003 it was released under a BSD open source license.
The ACK achieves maximum portability by using an intermediate byte-code language called EM. Each language front-end produces EM object files, which are then processed through a number of generic optimisers before being translated by a back-end into native machine code.
Unlike gccs intermediate language, EM is a real programming language and could be implemented in hardware; a number of the language front-ends have libraries implemented in EM assembly. EM is a relatively high-level stack-based machine, and one of the tools supplied with ACK is an interpreter capable of executing EM binaries directly, with a high degree of safety checking. See the em document referenced below for more information.
ACK comes with a generic linker and librarian capable of manipulating files in the ACKs own a.out-based format; it will work on files containing EM code as well as native machine code. (You can not, however, link EM code to native machine code without translating the EM binary first.)
Installation:
To install the ACK, you need to download the source package and compile it.
Version 5.6 compiles cleanly on Linux, but it has had little testing so far. The installation instructions are complex but straightforward provided you follow the instructions. Please read the README; it provides a detailed walk-through of the compilation process, telling you what to type at each stage.
Enhancements:
- Support has been added for generating CP/M binaries using the 8080 code generator.
- The various optimisers have been beaten into shape, and its now possible to use them on all platforms; a basic peephole optimiser has been set up for the 8080.
- The floating point system has been confirmed working on the pc86 and linux386 platforms.
- ANSI compatibility has been improved, binary sizes have been reduced, and there are many bugfixes everywhere.

PerlPoint::Parser Perl module is a PerlPoint Parser.

SYNOPSIS

# load the module:
use PerlPoint::Parser;

# build the parser and run it
# to get intermediate data in @stream
my ($parser)=new PerlPoint::Parser;
$parser->run(
stream => @stream,
files => @files,
);

The PerlPoint format, initially designed by Tom Christiansen, is intended to provide a simple and portable way to generate slides without the need of a proprietary product. Slides can be prepared in a text editor of your choice, generated on any platform where you find perl, and presented by any browser which can render the chosen output format.

To sum it up, PerlPoint Software takes an ASCII text and transforms it into slides written in a certain document description language. This is, by tradition, usually HTML, but you may decide to use another format like XML, SGML, TeX or whatever you want.

Well, this sounds fine, but how to build a translator which transforms ASCII into the output format of your choice? Thats what PerlPoint::Parser is made for. It performs the first translation step by parsing ASCII and transforming it into an intermediate stream format, which can be processed by a subsequently called translator backend. By separating parsing and output generation we get the flexibility to write as many backends as necessary by using the same parser frontend for all translators.

PerlPoint::Parser supports the complete GRAMMAR with exception of certain tags. Tags are supported the most common way: the parser recognizes any tag which is declared by the author of a translator. This way the parser can be used for various flavours of the PerlPoint language without having to be modified. So, if there is a need of a certain new flag, it can quickly be added without any change to PerlPoint::Parser.

The following chapters describe the input format (GRAMMAR) and the generated stream format (STREAM FORMAT). Finally, the class methods are described to show you how to build a parser.
