Free merge tool software for linux

rtkmerge is a GUI to the emerge command to handle packages under the Gentoo Linux Distrubution. It was initially written to help when running emerge world to update the entire system. I found that I sometimes didnt want to spend time on updating all the packages.
Preventing this would require to merge all programs one by one or fiddle with blocks. With rtkmerge you get all the outdated packages presented in a list and you can easily select which packages you want and dont want.
rtkmerge will then merge every package separately which also gives you the opportunity to set different USE-flags for different programs. This is useful for example if you want to install vim with X-support but emacs without X-support.
Even though the program is aimed at merging world it can also be run to merge other packages. Any argument to rtkmerge is sent to emerge when creating the list of packages. Note that these options are not used when emerge is called the second time to actually merge. A reasonable usage of rtkmerge might be `rtkmerge world -u --deep` or `rtkmerge ruby`. The options -p and -v are always set.
rtkmerge doesnt handle dependencies itself, so you should always press the pretend-button to find out which packages will really be installed. A package that you have unchecked might still be installed if it is a dependency of some package that is checked. Hack the code if you want to change this.
Enhancements:
- updated to work with latest portage (2.0.51)
- Positive USE-flags should not have + infront
- Make sure filesize doesnt come up as use-flag

Filemerge is a tools that allows you to merge two files in to one big file. Filemerger will run under linux but will not work with Freebsd.
Usage:
fm [argument] file1 file2 newfile
-v Display the version of mlm
-? Display this help file.
Example:
This will read the file test1, test2 and write all the file contents to the file test3.
fm /root/test1 /root/test2 /root/test3
File test1:
Line 1
Line 2
File Test2
Line2
Line3
File Test3
line1
Line2
Line3
Enhancements:
- Changes were made to the help file.

HTML::Merge is an embedded HTML/SQL/Perl system.

SYNOPSIS

< HTML>
< $RQ.SELECT * FROM customers WHERE customer_id=< $RVAR.cust_id>>
< $RLOOP>
< $RSQL.name> owes < $RSQL.debt>< BR>
< /$RLOOP>
< A HREF="/cgi-bin/merge.pl?template=main_menu.html">
< /HTML>

Merge is an embedded HTML/Perl/SQL tool for creating dynamic web content. merge.pl compiles HTML with embeded Perl to Perl CGI programs and run them.

All Merge pages are referred to by cgi-bin-dir/merge.pl?template=file.html
(Important: file.html is a HTML template that located in a directory you choose and name it on the merge.conf file. Notice for better security, the web server must not be able to display the templates dirctory). although on CGI mode you can define merge.pl as an handler with the Action directive in Apache.

Using merge.pl under Apache::Registry will utilize Perls built-in caching to cache pages using the do command.

Merge uses a configuration file to retrieve information about paths, database connectivity and debugging. It has an embedded debugging tool and on-line configuration. To turn that option on, set DEVELOPMENT to 1 in the configuration file. Dont forget to set it off before deployment.

Configuration can be changed during development using the toolkit menues, toolkit menues apear as popup windows on your web browser when you open a URL of mrege.pl.

Alternate configuration files can appear in /etc/merge.conf and $HOME/.merge.
As described in the INSTALL document you must set your web server for each appliaction and copy (or create) links to merge.pl and PUBLIC files and templates and create system database tables. If you are using a UNIX system you can use mergecreateinstance that will do thoes tasks for you.

FILES

B< merge.pl> Main script, usually a symbolic link to each instance.

B< merge.conf> Configuration, unique per each instance.

B< $PREFIX/share/merge/private> Internal scripts.

B< $PREFIX/bin/merge.cgi> Main script, central.

B< $PREFIX/bin/merge.conf> Template for configuration files.

B< $PREFIX/bin/mergecreateinstance> Instance creating script.

Java Preferences Tool is a simple utility for Java developers and testers, in the spirit of Microsofts Registry Editor.
Java Preferences Tool allows you to view, edit, compare, and search Java preferences.
The program has traditional explorer-style interface, with tree view of current preferences in the left pane, and table view of keys and values for selected preference node in the right pane.
On start the program shows you the standard "user" and "system" preference trees. Use tabs to navigate between trees.
You can also create new (initially empty) trees. Populate it by creating nodes and associated properties manually, or by copy-paste operations from existing trees. Save them as XML files by using File|Save menu operation. Such files can be loaded again by using File|Open, into a newly created tabs.
Main features:
- Edit, create, remove preferences (key-value pairs) associated with preference nodes.
- Change the structure of preference tree: create, rename, remove, cut, copy, paste and eliminate nodes, merge trees.
- Compare structure and contents of trees.
- Search trees for patterns in node names, keys and values.
Enhancements:
- Minor feature enhancements and bugfixes.

HTML::Merge::Ext - Extending Merge by writing your own tags.

TYPES OF TAGS

Generally, there are four types of tags in Merge.

Output tags

Tags such as < $RVAR > or others, that are substituted by values that appear in the output. For example: < $RVAR.x > is substituted by the value of the vairable x.

Non block tags

Tags that perform an action, and have no corresponding closing tags. For example: < $RSET.x=8 > sets the value 8 into the variable x.

Opening block tags

Tags that usually handle the flow of the template. These tags, together with the closing tags, encapsulate a block of HTML and tags between them. The data inside the block will be treated as regular output statements. If you wish to capture it for a different use, a capturing mechanism (for example, using the Perl select() statement) needs to be used. For example, < $RITERATION.LIMIT=4 > .. < /$RITERATION > will print everything inside the block 4 times.

Closing block tags

The tags that close blocks beginning in the opening tags. The tags < $REND >, < $REND_IF > and < $REND_WHILE > are privilleged as closing tags. Other closing tags use the SGML like notation of specifying a slash before the name of the tag, for example: < /$RCOUNT > is the closing tag for < $RCOUNT >

RSStool is a software to read, parse, merge and write RSS (and Atom) feeds.

Lately a new technology called "RSS feeds" has caught my attention I decided to make it successful by writing this small tool.

Usage:

rsstool [OPTION] FILE|URL...

Read, parse, merge and write RSS (and ATOM) feeds

Supports: RSS 0.9x, 1.0, 2.0 and ATOM 0.1, 0.2, 0.3

The RSS (or ATOM) feeds will be merged and re-sorted if you enter more than
one URL or FILEname

Options:
--version output version information and exit
--help display this help and exit
-q be quiet/less verbose
-s strip HTML code from RSS (or Atom) feeds
-r sort reverse
--html output as html (using -q will result in single line)
--txt output as plain text (using -q will result in single line)
-1 output as single line

--template=FILE|URL parse template file and replace tags with content
Tags: "< rsstool:url item=NUM >" url/link of item NUM
"< rsstool:title item=NUM >" title of item NUM
"< rsstool:desc item=NUM >" description of item
with NUM
"< rsstool:date item=NUM >" date of item NUM
"< rsstool:site item=NUM >" site where item with
NUM came from
Thats right, you could use/replace these custom tags in HTML
pages and upload them to a server who does only static HTML
"< rsstool:start item=NUM >" start of item NUM
"< rsstool:end item=NUM >" end of item NUM
These tags will be replaced with a "< !--" and a "-- >" if
the item NUM is empty
"< rsstool:updated >" rsstool notice (Thank You!)

--property=FILENAME output feed(s) into a property file
Layout: NAME_NUM=VALUE
NAME is "title", "url", etc..
NUM is an integer counting the items
VALUE is the content
