- Font resampling (antialiasing) for virtually unlimited pitch range, LCD optimization of fonts and images.
- Builtin fonts in the executable without reliance on any fonts installed in the system
- User-adjustable menu, HTML font size and image zoom factor.
- User-adjustable display gammas (red, green, blue), viewing-condition correction gamma and precise calibration of both monitor and Links on a calibration pattern
- Automatic aspect ratio correction for modes like 640x200, 640x400, 320x200 with user-adjustable manual aspect ratio correction.
- Support for one-wheel mice (vertical scroll), two-wheel mice (vertical and horizontal scroll) and smooth scrolling by grabbing the plane with a mouse (no wheel needed).
- Easy installation, the browser is just one executable and no more files.

This class can be used to keep track of the pages navigated by a user, so it can generate back or next links providing a similar effect to the use of the Javascript history.go() function.
It uses sessions to store an array variable that holds the URL of each page of a site that the user accesses. It can limit the number of pages that are kept in the history array.
It may also ignore pages accessed with the POST method or with certain URLs based on options that define exclusion regular expressions. The class can generate links to go back to the last page or the first page that was recorded.
Enhancements:
- The class is completely changed.
- This release adds creation of several objects of a class, a predefined start page, an expanded list of exceptions, and the methods get_history_back, get_history_next, is_history_back (check back one page), is_history_next (check the next page), get_history_backs (go to the first page), get_history_nexts (go to the last page), and get_history_header (go to the previous and next pages using external parameters).
- It adds history "always", and has more compatibility with javascript:history.go() (no checking previous and next pages).
- New methods have been added for the manipulation of history "always".

MyThreads-Links project is a flexible web based links manager that looks similar to Yahoo but was written in PHP and uses MySQL.
MyThreads-Links uses PHPLib Templates so that its very simple for anyone to change the look and feel of the program without having to edit the code.
Main features:
- Any user can suggest, edit or delete links and categories (and sub-categories),
- links and categories modifications are then validated by the webmaster,
- search engine,
- meta categories (new links, updated links, most requested links),
- optional email notification,
- easy customization since all HTML is in templates (english and french available),
- easy database customization, add some fields in your database and have them managed by myThreads in 5 minutes,
- easy installation with the web based installer.

HTML::Links::Localize is a Perl module that can convert HTML Files to be used on a hard disk.

SYNOPSIS

use HTML::Links::Localize;

my $converter =
HTML::Links::Localize->new(
base_dir => "/var/www/html/shlomi/Perl/Newbies/lecture4/",
dest_dir => "./dest"
);

$converter->process_file("mydir/myfile.html");

$converter->process_dir_tree(only-newer => 1);

my $new_content = $converter->process_content($html_text);

HTML::Links::Localize converts HTML files to be used when viewing on the hard disk. Namely, it converts relative links to point to "index.html" files in their directories.

To use it, first initialize an instance using new. The constructor accepts two named parameters which are mandatory. base_dir is the base directory (or source directory) for the operations. dest_dir is the root destination directory.

Afterwards, you can use the methods:

$new_content = $converter->process_content(FILE)

This function converts a singular text of an HTML file to a hard disk one. FILE is any argument accepatble by HTML::TokeParser. It returns the new content.

$converter->process_file($filename)

This function converts a filename relative to the source directory to its corresponding file in the destination directory.

$converter->process_dir_tree( [ only-newer => 1] );

This function converts the entire directory tree that starts at the base directory. only-newer means to convert only files that are newer in a make-like fashion.

Easy various links manager or Everest Linux Links Manager (evlinks) is a network manager and config toolkit that aims to replace network services and networkmanager.

Tthe design of evlinks:

1. use mac address as config file names to avoid interface name change.

2. multi profile support, for example, you can have a setting for Office and another setting for home.

3. never display info such as "eth0/wlan0/ath0" to users. what is the meaning of this strange words for normal user?

4. coupled loosely, if any component of evlinks crash or can not work, others works very well.

5. policy support: for example, whether start wired at booting time,whether start wireless at booting time,offline or online, if wired line unpluged, shall we switch to wireless?

The components of evlinks:

1. evlinkslo/evlinksboot:

run at system booting.
enable loopback and other interfaces according to config file.

2. evlinksiw, wireless config tool

3. evlinkswireless, a wrapper for evlinksiw to handle multiple wireless adapters. if you only have one wireless adapter, it will start evlinksiw directly.

4. evlinksw, wired config tool, support multiple profiles.

5. evlinkswired, same as evlinkswireless, a wrapper for evlinksw to handle multiple wired adapter.

6. evlinksmonitor, a hal client to monitor the adapter changes. since it use hal, then we can catch the signal when new adapter plugged and removed.

7. evlinkstraffic, network traffic monitor. used in evlinksmonitor and evlinkspppoe.

8. evlinkspppoe, PPPoE clients, used to connect ADSL(no PPPoA support)

9. evlinksdispatcher and evlinksrun. dirty code to help normal user run it easily.that is to say, normal user use evlinksrun to call evlinks utils, they all run as super user. it is not a good design, also had security problem, need change later.

Collink is a link extractor/collector based on Qt library. It saves list of links as plain text or better as a Downloader for X list giving different names for files to save.
You can filter links by filename extension and via a Qt regular expression. It is probably an unuseful utility if you do not manage your downloads with D4X, use it as a power user or if you know wget ;)
Enhancements:
- save / restore last filter
- 0.5 release

LinkBrowser is a program for browsing the links in HTML documents and downloading the files that they reference.
Basically, this program is like a normal Web browser, but instead of rendering the HTML it just shows a table of all the files that the html references. The files can be downloaded in batches.
Enhancements:
- URL parsing has been enhanced and build issues with Java 1.5 have been fixed.
