Swift is a fully OOP Library for sending e-mails from PHP websites and applications. Swift Mailer does not rely on PHPs native mail() function which is known for using high server resources when sending multiple emails. Instead, Swift communicates directly with an SMTP server or a MTA binary to send mail quickly and efficiently.
Swift is comparable to PHPMailer except that it implements an extremely flexible and innovative plugin system meaning you can get the most out of sending emails from your PHP applications. The interface for Swift is both tighter and more intuitive.
I started developing Swift because I moderate a popular PHP forum and its clear from some of the posts we see that PHPs native mail() function just doesnt quite cut it among developers unless you know a lot about how to build emails and you only need to send one message.
The only other popular alternative was PHPMailer which is great, but it just struck me that maybe developers might want something with a little more "umff"! So I wrote Swift initially for the communtity at the PHP Developers Network Forums and have decided to release it now under the LGPL. Enjoy!

NullLogic Embedded Scripting Language (Nesla) code looks a lot like php (the same basic c operators, syntax and flow control) but with a lot less dollar signs. Internally, Nesla has a very clean API that makes it easy for c programs to make full use of its functions and data.

Nesla was originally written as a lightweight object model for c.

Nesla is Free Software, and is available under the terms of the GNU GPL.

JUCE is an all-encompassing C++ class library for developing cross-platform applications. JUCE is good for creating highly-specialised user interfaces and for handling graphics and sound.
The intended users are developers who are building large, complex applications in C++ and who would like to use just one clean, high-level API rather than a bunch of different libraries for different purposes or platforms.
Its features include fully lightweight components with transparency and effects, classes for strings, containers, XML, streams, file handling, messaging, and event queues, vector graphics, a custom font engine, image manipulation, OpenGL support, low-latency audio I/O using CoreAudio, DSound and ASIO, audio buffers and nodes, MIDI file and event manipulation, Internet streams, undo/redo support, and more.
Main features:
Basics - Worlds best string class; arrays; stream and file handling; time and date; maths functions, random numbers, reference counting, super-fast XML parser and well-stocked XML manipulation classes; abstractions for threads, processes, critical sections etc; built-in GZIP compression/decompression streams and ZIP file readling; undo/redo support; logging; messaging layer with timers, event listeners; etc. etc.
User Interface - Cross-platform windowing capability with extremely powerful lightweight component architecture. Ready-made components include buttons, lists, menus, textboxes, treeviews, scrollbars, etc. Components are customisable either at a low-level by creating your own (or by subclassing existing ones), or at an application-wide level by creating custom look-and-feel styles for them.
Vector Graphics - Fast, high-quality anti-aliased rendering of shapes with transpaency, gradient fills, etc; path stroking with different line styles, dashed-lines; affine transformations and geometry classes; manipulation of typefaces as paths and custom font engine to provide sub-pixel accurate text in a platform-independent manner; typefaces can be serialised for easy embedding of fonts in an executable.
Image manipulation - High-quality rendering of images, allowing affine transformations and transparency; support for cross-platform OpenGL windows within Juce windows; built-in parser for loading JPEG, PNG and GIF image formats; image caching; easy embedding of images in an executable without having to use platform-specific resources.
Audio - Low-latency audio engine supporting DirectSound, ASIO and CoreAudio devices; audio buffer classes for mixing and manipulating samples; Parsers for WAV and AIFF formats, as well as reading audio streams from audio CD devices (easy on the Mac, but tricky on Windows!); powerful MIDI message classes; MIDI file load/save; connectable audio-processing nodes including sample-rate conversion.
Networking - URL handling; http and ftp reader streams; launching default browsers, etc.
Easy to integrate - JUCE is a static library so your application can run as a stand-alone executable - no extra dlls to install, nothing for users to mess up! In your application, youll just need to include one header file: "juce.h" and thats it - no platform-specific code or any other headers needed.
Enhancements:
- Many bugfixes in this release, and a few new features such as Apple Remote support, file treeviews, and screensaver disabling.

Exiv2 comprises of a C++ library and a command line utility to access image metadata. Exiv2 is free software and it is released under the GPL Public License.
Exiv2 is also a command line utility to
- print the Exif metadata of Jpeg images as summary info, interpreted values, or the plain data for each tag (here is a sample)
- print the Iptc metadata of Jpeg images
- print the Jpeg comment of Jpeg images
- set, add and delete Exif and Iptc metadata of Jpeg images
- adjust the Exif timestamp (thats how it all started...)
- rename Exif image files according to the Exif timestamp
- extract, insert and delete Exif metadata, Iptc metadata and Jpeg comments
- extract, insert and delete the thumbnail image embedded in the Exif metadata
Main features:
1. full read and write access to the Exif and Iptc metadata of an image through Exiv2 keys and standard C++ iterators
2. a smart Iptc implementation that does not effect data that programs like Photoshop store in the same image segment
3. Exif MakerNote support:
-MakerNote tags can be accessed just like any other Exif metadata
-a sophisticated write algorithm avoids corrupting the MakerNote:
o the MakerNote is not re-located if possible at all, and
o MakerNote Ifd offsets are re-calculated if the MakerNote needs to be moved (for known Ifd MakerNotes)
4. new camera make/model specific MakerNotes can be added to the library with minimum effort in OO-fashion (by subclassing MakerNote or IfdMakerNote)
5. extract and delete methods for Exif thumbnails (both, Jpeg and Tiff thumbnails)
6. set methods for Exif thumbnails (Jpeg only, Tiff thumbnails can be set from individual tags)
7. complete API documentation (by Doxygen)
8. generic lower-level classes to access Ifd (Image File Directory) data structures
Enhancements:
- This maintenance release fixes a number of bugs, adds support for Minolta G500 RAW files, and has minor tag updates and some larger translation updates.

GtkHTML is a HTML rendering/editing library.

GtkHTML is not designed to be the ultimate HTML browser/editor: instead, it is designed to be easily embedded into applications that require lightweight HTML functionality

Mozvert image is a Firefox extension that uses convert from ImageMagick for saving images to its preferred formats.

It adds the entry "Convert Image As..." after "Save Image As..." with 8 predefined formats: PNG, JPG, GIF, XPM, TIFF, BMP, PS (PostScript), XBM, ICO.
