Message::Style is a Perl module to perform stylistic analysis of messages.

SYNOPSIS

use Message::Style;

my $score=Message::Style::score(@article);
# or
my $score=Message::Style::score(@article);

This Perl library does an analysis of a RFC2822 format message (typically email messages or Usenet posts) and produces a score that, in the authors opinion, gives a good indication as to whether the poster is a fsckwit, and therefore whether their message should be ignored.

Acquire is a computer version of the classic board game.
The goal of the game is to make the most profit by buying stocks in companies that form, merge and grow as tiles are placed on the game board.
This program is a text-based version of the game and should be playable on any system with a C++ compiler.
Enhancements:
- The main improvement of this release is that the bug causing the game to crash at the end was fixed, so you can now see who won.
- There were some other small bugfixes and changes.

Wily::Message is a Perl extension to handle Wily Messages.

SYNOPSIS

use Wily::Message;
use Wily::Connect;

# opens a file in wily and exits when the window is destroyed

my $win_id;

my $ws = Wily::Connect::connect();

my $wm = Wily::Message->new(Wily::Message::WMnew, 0, 0, 0, 1,
/tmp/file_to_edit);
$ws->syswrite($wm->flatten());

my $buffer = ;
until (Wily::Message::complete_message($buffer)) {
$ws->sysread($buffer, 1024, length($buffer));
}

$buffer = $wm->from_string($buffer);

if ($wm->{type} == Wily::Message::WRerror) {
die "Error WMnew: $wm->{s}n";
} elsif ($wm->{type} == Wily::Message::WRnew) {
$win_id = $wm->{window_id};
$wm = Wily::Message->new(Wily::Message::WMattach, $win_id, 0, 0,
Wily::Message::WEdestroy);
$ws->syswrite($wm->flatten());
until (Wily::Message::complete_message($buffer)) {
$ws->sysread($buffer, 1024, length($buffer));
}
$buffer = $wm->from_string($buffer);
if ($wm->{type} == Wily::Message::WRerror) {
die "Error WMattach: $wm->{s}n";
} elsif ($wm->{type} == Wily::Message::WRattach) {
} else {
die "Expected a WRattach, but didnt get one";
}
} else {
die "Expected a WRnew, but didnt get one";
}

while (1) {
until (Wily::Message::complete_message($buffer)) {
$ws->sysread($buffer, 1024, length($buffer));
}
$buffer = $wm->from_string($buffer);
if ($wm->{type} == Wily::Message::WEdestroy and $wm->{window_id} == $win_id) {
last;
}
}

A simple object wrapper around Wily messages with a helper function to assist in extracting messages from the wily connection.

Psunami Bulletin Board is an Open Source alternative to the popular Ultimate Bulletin Board software, and aims for speed, ease of use, and a full feature set.

For installation, do the following:

1)Recursively copy everything from ./cgi-bin/ into your servers cgi-bin/ directory.

2)Recursively chown (chown -R) the psunami/ directory to the user that your web server uses (www-data on Debian, nobody on Slack, httpd on RHat-based systems (Ive been told that it is nobody on someRHat systems), wwwrun on SuSE. Anyone know what it is for others?) If you are unable to chown (eg. you are not the superuser) then make sure it is all readable/writable by the user (777 works, but is probably much too generous). Also do this to the psunami.conf file in cgi-bin.

3)Make psunami.cgi, psunami_admin.cgi, and psunami_moderate.cgi executable by the user that your web server uses. (chmod u+x *.cgi)

4)Change the paths to your perl executable if necessary. The paths are at the top of psunami.cgi, psunami_moderate.pl, and psunami_admin.cgi and default to /usr/bin/perl. Type which perl at a command prompt if you dont know where the executable is.

5)Run psunami_admin.cgi and create a new board. The initial login is psunami and the password is bulletin (no quotes).

6)Make sure that your mail program is configured properly in the preferences. It defaults to /usr/bin/sendmail.

7)Once you have created an account for yourself and given it admin rights, make sure you delete the psunami user.

# write SOAP XML using DOM

use XML::Xerses;

# DOM Document
my $target = XML::Xerces::StdOutFormatTarget->new();
$writer->writeNode($target,$message->getOutput(DOM-Doc);

# DOM generated / munged XML
print OUT $message->getOutput(DOM-XML);


# use message with SOAP::Lite to call webservice

use SOAP::Lite;

# SOAP::Data::Builder object
my $result = SOAP::Lite->uri(http://uri.to/WebService)
->proxy(http://uri.to/soap.cgi)
->parts($message->getMIMEParts)
->call($message->getOutput(SOAP-Data))
->result;

# SOAP::Data::Builder generated / munged XML
print OUT $message->getOutput(SOAP-XML);

An ebXML message encapsulates all the details of an ebMS message.
ebXML is a mechanism for ensuring reliable delivery of XML-based messages via a transport mechanism such as SOAP. For more details on ebXML, see http://www.ebxml.org/
Large portions of this manual page are copied directly from the ebMS 2.0 specification.

THCNET Message System project is a customizable PHP-enabled Web application which provides a moderated message system using a backend MySQL database.
Installation
download and install MySQL. download and install apache with mod_rewrite
and php4 or php5 compiled with the pspell libraries.

modify the *.template *.css files to make things look how you want
modify the any and all source code as you see fit.
As of release 1.0.pre5 thcnet has an auto-installer/revision control
feature that makes the initial setup much easier.
copy all the files into your htdocs directory on your web server
open index.php in your browser. It will prompt you for values it needs
to perform the installation. Click on setup and it will create the
database for you and populate it.
Now that you have THCNET setup, the first task will be to apply as a new
user. The first user to apply will be given sys-admin rights.
Now you can customize features by clicking on the Admin link to the
left.
Enhancements:
- This release adds the ability to further control the system based on policy maps.
