Free maintenance 1.00 software for linux

ZOOM::IRSpy::Maintenance is a maintenance documentation for IRSpy.
The IRSpy application is implemented by five components:
- A library of classes within the ZOOM::IRSpy "namespace".
- A command-line invocation script called irspy
- A web-based UI - either this or the command-line script can be used to run the spy software, but the latter is more capable in that it also provides ways to interrogate the database of results.
- A small additional library, ZOOM::Pod, which is used by IRSpy and which is more conveniently included in this distribution than released and maintained separately.
- The configuration for a Zebra database that stores the harvested information.
These components are discussed in turn.

Make is a Perl module for processing makefiles.

SYNOPSIS

require Make;
my $make = Make->new(...);
$make->parse($file);
$make->Script(@ARGV)
$make->Make(@ARGV)
$make->Print(@ARGV)

my $targ = $make->Target($name);
$targ->colon([dependancy...],[command...]);
$targ->dolon([dependancy...],[command...]);
my @depends = $targ->colon->depend;
my @commands = $targ->colon->command;

Make->new creates an object if new(Makefile => $file) is specified then it is parsed. If not the usual makefile Makefile sequence is used. (If GNU => 1 is passed to new then GNUmakefile is looked for first.)

$make->Make(target...) makes the target(s) specified (or the first real target in the makefile).

$make->Print can be used to print to current selected stream a form of the makefile with all variables expanded.

$make->Script(target...) can be used to print to current selected stream the equivalent bourne shell script that a make would perform i.e. the output of make -n.

There are other methods (used by parse) which can be used to add and manipulate targets and their dependants. There is a hierarchy of classes which is still evolving. These classes and their methods will be documented when they are a little more stable.

The syntax of makefile accepted is reasonably generic, but I have not re-read any documentation yet, rather I have implemented my own mental model of how make works (then fixed it...).

In addition to traditional

.c.o :
$(CC) -c ...

GNU makes pattern rules e.g.

%.o : %.c
$(CC) -c ...

Likewise a subset of GNU makes $(function arg...) syntax is supported.
Via pmake Make has built perl/Tk from the MakeMaker generated Makefiles...

VarCon is a data set provided as part of the Word List project.

It contains a number of lists and tables of words that can be used to help automatically convert the English language between the differing spellings of its local dialects (American, British, Canadian).

In an age where Spanish application translations are common, but finding a British, Canadian or Australian translation (as used by FAR more people than American English) can be almost impossible, and when "English" on the internet is increasingly seeming to be "American", it is hoped that by providing access to the raw data in a variety of different ways (optimised for different application types with different load profiles) it will encourage developers to integrate support for automated dialect translation into internationalisation toolkits, and thus into many applications.

METHODS

For this initial release, only methods to locate the files are provided.

Additional access methods will be provided later, or on request.

abbc_file

The abbc_file method returns the location of the abbc.tab file from the VarCon data set.

also_file

The also_file method returns the location of the variant-also.tab file from the VarCon data set.

infl_file

The infl_file method returns the location of the variant-infl.tab file from the VarCon data set.

wroot_file

The infl_file method returns the location of the variant-wroot.tab file from the VarCon data set.

voc_file

The voc_file method returns the location of the voc.tab file from the VarCon data set.

Inline::SLang::Changes is a Perl module with changes to previous versions of the module.

Inline::SLang lets you write Perl subroutines in S-Lang. It dynamically translates the parameters and return values into native data types for both languages (or into Perl classes that are used to represent S-Lang types with no direct translation to Perl).

From the S-Lang library home page at http://www.s-lang.org/

S-Lang is a multi-platform programmers library designed to allow a developer to create robust multi-platform software. It provides facilities required by interactive applications such as display/screen management, keyboard input, keymaps, and so on. The most exciting feature of the library is the slang interpreter that may be easily embedded into a program to make it extensible.

Example:

use Inline SLang =><<less
