Free macintosh binhex archive software for linux

Simple Page Archive is a mirror and archiving tool to copy Web pages you are interested in. The CGI script downloads all images and CSS files to preserve the mirrored Web page.
It works with the ZEUS (www.zeus.com) and Apache (www.apache.org) web servers. SPA is an simple CGI script which allows you to mirror a single web page. It stores all images and CSSs locally, so you are able to browse through the archive without the need of the original, images being availiable.
The script is dead simple to install!
1. First you need to download "Beatiful Soup" (BS) from http://www.crummy.com/software/BeautifulSoup/ which is a quite simple but very good HTML Parser (not like the one in the Python distro .. which is acutally broken). Please "install" the BS module in your site-packages directory of python.
2. Copy the "index.py" file to directory of your "web archive".
3. Edit the script and change wroot variable in Configuration section at the beginning of the script to the document root directory of your web archive (NOT the physical path on the disk!)
3.1 If you are behind a firewall and you need proxy support, add your proxy server in the Configuration section as well.
4. Make sure you have CGI support enabled in your web server.
5. Make sure index.py is being called as the default DirectoryIndex.
6. Make sure the permissions of the index.py file and the directory are set
correctly. The CGI process must be able to write to your archive directory.
7. Open a browser and try to mirror a page ;-)
Enhancements:
- Added filter support
- Output now sorted by date

Early Macintosh Image LoadEr allows to boot linux-m68k from a floppy on a macintosh such as MacII or Quadra 610.
With it, you can create rescue disk, or remove the MacOS partition (needed by the legacy penguin booter) from your HD.
Create a floppy from rescue disk image
You can find floppy image from the package emile-rescue
Under linux, the command to dump image to floppy is:
# dd if=emile-rescue-x.y.bin of=/dev/fd0 bs=512 conv=sync
then, you can eject floppy with:
# eject /dev/fd0
If you are using MacOS, use MakeDebianFloppy AppleScript (you must use a floppy image with a size of exactly 1474560 bytes).
Enhancements:
- This release has improved SCSI support, allows you to create a bootable CD-ROM, adds Debian packaging, updates the PowerPC part (currently not usable), and introduces apple_driver (currently not usable).

News::Archive is a Usenet news archiving package for downloading and later accessing news articles in bulk.

It can load articles laid out in INN format, retrieve them from a running news server, or just take articles one-by-one. News::Archive module is compatible with News::Web and Net::NNTP::Server, so the articles can be shared either via the Web or via NNTP.

SYNOPSIS

use News::Archive;
my $archive = new News::Archive
( basedir => /home/tskirvin/kiboze );

# Get a news article
my $article = News::Article->new(*STDIN);
my $msgid = article->header(message-id);

die "Already processed $msgidn"
if ($archive->article( $messageid ));

# Get the list of groups were supposed to be saving the article into
my @groups = split(s*,s*, $article->header(newsgroups) );
map { s/s+//g } @groups;

# Make sure were subscribed to these groups
foreach (@groups) { $archive->subscribe($_) }

# Actually save the article.
my $ret = $archive->save_article(
[ @{$article->rawheaders}, , @{$article->body} ], @groups );
$ret ? print "Accepted article $messageidn"
: print "Couldnt save article $messageidn";

News::Archive keeps several files to keep track of its archives:

active file

Keeps track of all newsgroups we are "subscribed" to and all of the information that changes regularly - the number of articles we have archived, the current first and last article numbers, etc.

Watched over with News::Active.

history database

A simple database keeping track of articles by Message-ID. Makes access by ID easy, and ensures that we dont save the same article twice. The database chosen to maintain these is user-determined.

newsgroup file

Keeps track of more static information about the newsgroups we are subscribed to - descriptions, creation dates, etc.

Watched over with News::GroupInfo.

archive directory

Directory structure of all articles, with each article saved as a single textfile within a directory structure laid out at one section of the group name per directory, such as "rec/games/mecha". Crossposts are hardlinked to other directory structures.

Articles are actually divided into sub-directories containing up to 500 articles, to avoid Unix directory size performance limitations. Individual files are thus stored in a file such as "rec/games/mecha/1.500/1".

Each newsgroup also contains overview information, watched over with
News::Overview. This overview file goes in the top of the structure,
such as "rec/games/mecha/.overview".

You may note that these files are very similar to how INN does its work. This is intentional - this package is meant to act in many ways like a lighter-weight INN.

Usage:

Global Variables

The following variables are set within News::Archive, and are global throughout all invocations.

$News::Active::DEBUG
Default value for "debug()" in new objects.

$News::Active::HOSTNAME
Default value for "hostname()" in new objects. Obtained using
"Sys::Hostname::hostname()".

$News::Active::HASH
The number of articles to keep in each directory. Default is 500;
change this at your own peril, since things may get screwed up later
if you change it after archiving any articles!

User::Identity::Archive is a base class for archiving user information.

INHERITANCE

User::Identity::Archive
is a User::Identity::Item

User::Identity::Archive is extended by
User::Identity::Archive::Plain

SYNOPSIS

use User::Identity::Archive::Plain;
my $friends = User::Identity::Archive::Plain->new(friends);
$friends->from(*FH);
$friends->from(.friends);

An archive stores collections. It depends on the type of archive how and where that is done. Some archivers may limit the kinds of selections which can be stored.

Convert::BinHex can extract data from Macintosh BinHex files.

ALPHA WARNING: this code is currently in its Alpha release. Things may change drastically until the interface is hammered out: if you have suggestions or objections, please speak up now!

SYNOPSIS

Simple functions:

use Convert::BinHex qw(binhex_crc macbinary_crc);

# Compute HQX7-style CRC for data, pumping in old CRC if desired:
$crc = binhex_crc($data, $crc);

# Compute the MacBinary-II-style CRC for the data:
$crc = macbinary_crc($data, $crc);

Hex to bin, low-level interface. Conversion is actually done via an object ("Convert::BinHex::Hex2Bin") which keeps internal conversion state:
# Create and use a "translator" object:
my $H2B = Convert::BinHex->hex2bin; # get a converter object
while (< STDIN >) {
print $STDOUT $H2B->next($_); # convert some more input
}
print $STDOUT $H2B->done; # no more input: finish up

Hex to bin, OO interface. The following operations must be done in the order shown!
# Read data in piecemeal:
$HQX = Convert::BinHex->open(FH=>*STDIN) || die "open: $!";
$HQX->read_header; # read header info
@data = $HQX->read_data; # read in all the data
@rsrc = $HQX->read_resource; # read in all the resource

Bin to hex, low-level interface. Conversion is actually done via an object ("Convert::BinHex::Bin2Hex") which keeps internal conversion state:
# Create and use a "translator" object:
my $B2H = Convert::BinHex->bin2hex; # get a converter object
while (< STDIN >) {
print $STDOUT $B2H->next($_); # convert some more input
}
print $STDOUT $B2H->done; # no more input: finish up

Bin to hex, file interface. Yes, you can convert to BinHex as well as from it!
# Create new, empty object:
my $HQX = Convert::BinHex->new;

# Set header attributes:
$HQX->filename("logo.gif");
$HQX->type("GIFA");
$HQX->creator("CNVS");

# Give it the data and resource forks (either can be absent):
$HQX->data(Path => "/path/to/data"); # here, data is on disk
$HQX->resource(Data => $resourcefork); # here, resource is in core

# Output as a BinHex stream, complete with leading comment:
$HQX->encode(*STDOUT);

PLANNED!!!! Bin to hex, "CAP" interface. Thanks to Ken Lunde for suggesting this.
# Create new, empty object from CAP tree:
my $HQX = Convert::BinHex->from_cap("/path/to/root/file");
$HQX->encode(*STDOUT);

BinHex is a format used by Macintosh for transporting Mac files safely through electronic mail, as short-lined, 7-bit, semi-compressed data streams. Ths module provides a means of converting those data streams back into into binary data.

XArchive is a generic front end for archives that uses external wrappers around the command line tools. XArchive checks its wrapper directory when it starts, consulting each wrapper found to see what file types are supported.
Thus, a new archive format can easily be supported by just writing a wrapper for it and dropping it in the wrappers directory.
Currently there are bash shell wrappers for: rar, tar, zip, and ace
(ace supported using unace, so only reading and extracting available).
These can easily be copied and modified to have xarchive support other command line tools and file types without having to touch xarchive at all.
Enhancements:
- This version supports adding files to an archive using Drag n Drog, and has a few GUI clean ups.

WormBase::Archive::Build can create archives of Wormbase releases.

SYNOPSIS

use Bio::GMOD::Admin::Archive;
my $archive = Bio::GMOD::Admin::Archive->new();

$archive->create_archive();

METHODS

Bio::GMOD::Admin::Archive->new(@options)
Create a new WormBase::Archive object for archiving WormBase releases.

The options consist largely of file system and remote paths. If none are provided, they will all be populated from the default file located on the primary WormBase server.

This is the recommended idiom as it insulates your programs from structural changes at WormBase. In this case, archives will be built in /pub/wormbase/RELEASE where RELEASE is a WSXXX release.

There are, however, at least two options that you will wish to provide:

--database_repository Full path where to store archives on your filesystem
--mysql_path Full path to the mysql data dir

See WormBase.pm for additional details on all system-dependent paths that can be overridden.
