Free look and feel software for linux

wmnetload is a network interface monitor dockapp for Window Maker. wmnetload is designed to fit well with dockapps like wmcpuload and wmmemmon.

It tracks whether the interface is functioning and displays current network interface throughput, along with an auto-scaling graph of recent network activity (the graph separates upstream and downstream traffic load cleanly without resorting to colors).

Configuring the Look

Since one of the main goals of wmnetload is to match the look-and-feel of wmcpuload, and since the look of wmcpuload was changed as of version 0.9, the look of wmnetload has also been revised. However, those who prefer the "classic" wmnetload look (or who are still using older versions of wmcpuload) can compile wmnetload to present the original look by passing --with-classic-look to `configure.

Interface Cycling

Although wmnetload can monitor only a single interface at a time, the interface being monitored can be selected by using mouse buton 3 to cycle through each of the available interfaces. Note that with the classic look, wmnetload does not display the name of the interface, which makes interface cycling hard to use without getting confused.

Alarm Mode

Like wmcpuload, wmnetload allows you to set an alarm value (in kbits/sec) that causes the display backlight to be turned on whenever it is exceeded. This is chiefly useful for alerting you to unusual or aberrant network behavior.

Cotharyus' Advanced Mush Server 1.1.49 is a very good software for computer maniacs. It is actually a new take on the old fashioned telnet-based talker or Multi User Shared Halucination. It includes everything you would expect to find in a talker, and then some. It is original from the ground up, designed to look and feel like the systems that were available at the time the project began.

sensorTrends is a project that generates trending reports based on security device log files.
sensorTrends is a Web-based application that displays a high-level view of the ports that are being scanned over the course of time. The display is similar to the look and feel of incidents.org and Dshield.com.
There are also quick links to correlate your data with the Internet Storm Center (incidents.org).
Supported log formats are:
- Cisco router Access Control Lists (ACLs) syslog output,
- Cisco PIX firewall syslog output,
- Snorts portscan.log files,
- NetScreen syslog output.

Xchangeboard is forum software based on PHP and MySQL. The project offers an easy way of administration to handle design and/or user-specific tasks. The look and feel resembles other well known boards.
Enhancements:
- An issue has been fixed that allowed a user to conduct SQL injection attacks when the option magic_quotes_gpc was turned of.
- Some new features and improvements were implemented, and some other small bugs have been fixed.

Linice is a source-level kernel debugger for x86 systems with the look and feel of SoftIce for MS Windows.
It is designed for people who are already familiar with SoftIce, but anyone can quickly get used to it. It can break into a running kernel at any time using a hotkey and supports breakpoints and single step on modules, the kernel, or user programs.
Linice supports the VGA frame buffer, the X Window System, serial connections, and monochrome adapters.
Enhancements:
- A bug in linsym where getlogin() would return NULL for some kernels has been fixed.
- This fixes a linsym segfault reported by a number of users.

AfterLive is a live Linux CD distribution based on Damn Small Linux.
AfterLive distro uses AfterStep instead of fluxbox for the window manager, and includes other AfterStep-related apps.
AfterStep is a window manager for the Unix X Window System. Originally based on the look and feel of the NeXTStep interface, it provides end users with a consistent,
clean, and elegant desktop. The goal of AfterStep development is to provide for flexibility of desktop configuration, improving aestetics, and efficient use of system resources.
Some of the distinguishing features of AfterStep compared to other window managers are its low usage of resources, stability and configurability.
Enhancements:
- This release updates AfterStep to 2.1.2 (CVS as of DEC102005).
- It also updates aterm to 1.0.0.

Adime project is a library for constructing Allegro GUI dialogs in a way similar to scanf(), using a format string.
Other features include a (customizable) 3d look and feel, 3d versions of some of Allegros GUI procs, complete help in many formats (HTML, txt, chm, texinfo, man, devhelp, and RTF), and four example programs.
Adime can currently be compiled on Linux, Windows/MinGW32, Windows/Borland C++, Windows/MSVC, DOS/DJGPP, DOS/Watcom, Apple MacOS X, and QNX.
Main features:
- Only one function call to create a whole dialog, using a format string.
- 3d look and feel.
- No need to calculate object coordinates by hand. All such things are handled completely automatically.
- Uses Allegros gui in the bottom, so it supports Unicode and is potentially portable to any system supported by Allegro (although there are not makefiles for all of them).
- The format string supports the following kinds of input:
- Text input.
- Number input, supporting double, float and signed or unsigned char, short and int. Thanks to the expression evaluator for Egg (written by Shawn Hargreaves), it has a built-in calculator so that the user can enter mathematical expressions.
- Selection of a filename, using (a 3d version of) Allegros file selector.
- Boolean input, using a checkbox.
- Selection of a string from a list box.
- A new dialog recursively opened when the user clicks a button.
- Highly customizable look, using global variables for the fonts, colors and measurements of the dialogs.
- The kernel is flexible enough to allow you to register your own format strings at runtime.
- 3d versions of the following Allegro gui functions: file_select(), d_edit_proc(), d_list_proc(), d_button_proc(), d_check_proc() and d_text_list_proc(). Gui functions for edit boxes with mathematical expressions and a multi-line version of d_text_proc().
- The format string is carefully checked for any possible errors, thus minimizing the risk for you to make mistakes.
- Help compiles into txt, info, html, rtf, and chm formats.
- Four example programs.
