Free epic software for linux

EPIC is a Perl IDE based on the Eclipse platform.
Features supported are syntax highlighting, on-the-fly syntax checking, content assistance, Perldoc support, a source formatter, templating support, and a Perl debugger.
A regular expression plugin and support for the eSpell spellchecker are also available.
Enhancements:
- The "testing" version 0.6.13 of EPIC is made available in the SourceForge download area, superseding the previously offered "stable" version 0.5.33. It contains mostly enhancements and fixes in the debugger, some of which cannot be provided in the "stable" version due to major differences in the code bases. The released version 0.6.13, which requires at least Eclipse 3.2, is not declared "stable" yet in order to maintain compatibility with Eclipse 3.1 in the "stable" branch.

Excalibur: Morganas Revenge (EMR) is a unique scenario based upon the Aleph One (Marathon) engine. It is a first-person action adventure game, featuring an epic and in-depth story line. As a Federation Marine resting after your last mission, you start aboard the exploration class Starship Kronos where you learn that your real mission has yet to begin. You are re-acquainted with the AI Merlin, who introduces you to Kronos time traveling technology, and reveals your new mission: to save mankind from the clutches of Morgana and her minions. Through untamed raptor-infested jungles, castle arenas, and war-torn streets of the future, you will wield weapons from all time periods - including the Sword of Power, Excalibur - in an effort to thwart the diabolical plot that unfolds. The EMR adventure, spread across 42 solo levels, weaves a tale of truth and honor, knighthood and bravery, and darkness and treachery. EMR also delivers 27 adrenaline pumped network levels. EMR immerses you in an amazing new world, creating an addictive, fun and unique gaming experience.

For those that played EMR under the old Marathon Infinity engine, EMR 3.0 brings exciting new maps, new high resolution textures and landscapes, a completely new set of weapons, new monsters and friends, new scenery, new 16-bit sounds, original music, and a carefully woven original story line that transcends time. Using the Aleph One engine, EMR now sports loads of new special features using Aleph Ones MML and Lua scripting languages. Please note that the AlephOne engine is old technology improved. Architecture is still simulated 3D, so there are no ramps, bridges, and balconies, nor horizontal doors. The sprites in EMR are made up of 2D images posed in different views, not 3D models. Do not expect the latest state-of-the-art graphics engine, but you can expect an intriguing storyline, creative map architectures, engaging graphics, original spellbinding music, and mood-setting sound effects.

Whats New in This Release:

• Levels with fog and mist
  
• Persistent effects such as poison, earthquakes, fire storm spell, and timed grenades

Recovery Is Possible (RIP) is a Slackware-based CD or floppy boot/rescue/backup/maintenance system. It has support for a lot of filesystem types (Reiserfs, Reiser4, ext2/3, iso9660, UDF, XFS, JFS, UFS, HPFS, HFS, MINIX, MS DOS, NTFS, and VFAT) and contains a bunch of utilities for system recovery.
R.I.P. also has IDE/SCSI/SATA, PCMCIA, RAID, LVM2, and Ethernet/DSL/cable/PPP/PPPOE network support.
The bootable CD image `RIP-12.4.iso.bin can be written to a CD/DVD disk, using cdrecord/dvdrecord etc.
The 2.6.11.6 kernel has IDE/SATA and SCSI support. The kernel also has PCMCIA, LVM2, RAID, and Ethernet/cable/dsl/ppp/ pppoe/wireless networking support.
These are some of the programs it contains (partimage/partimaged, parted, dump/restore, reiserfsck, fsck.reiser4, fdisk, cfdisk, sfdisk, mke2fs, e2fsck, tune2fs, debugfs, mkfs.xfs, jfs_mkfs, jfs_fsck, xfs_repair, cdrecord/dvdrecord, mkisofs, dvd+rw-format, growisofs, ntfsresize, mkntfs, lynx, mutt, fetchmail, pop3spam, popselect, ncftp, epic irc, tin, telnet, wget, naim, zgv, testdisk, smbclient, smbmount, ssh/sshd, rsync, udp-sender/receiver, lde, blesstivo, rtvpatch, chntpw, cmospwd, grub, grubconfig, smartctl, memtest86, captive-ntfs, ddrescue, dd_rescue, acpitool, dmidecode, hwinfo, lshw, ethtool)
It also includes the DVD udf filesystem packet writing tools (cdrwtool, mkudffs, pktsetup).
The reiserfsck and fsck.reiser4 programs are used to check and repair a Linux reiserfs and reiser4 filesystem.
The xfs_repair program is used to repair a Linux xfs filesystem.
The jfs_fsck program is used to check and repair a Linux jfs filesystem.
The e2fsck program is used to check and repair a Linux ext2 or ext3 filesystem.
The ntfsresize program non-destructively resizes Windows XP/2000/NT4 or Windows Server 2003 NTFS filesystems. Read /usr/doc/RIP/ntfsresize.txt on the rescue system.
The parted program is used for creating, destroying, resizing (fat16/32, ext2/3, reiserfs v3.6), checking and copying partitions, and the file systems on them. This is useful for creating space for new operating systems, reorganising disk usage, copying data between hard disks and disk imaging.
The partition image program partimage saves partitions in the ext2, ext3, reiserfs, jfs, xfs, ufs, ntfs, fat16, and fat32 formats to an image file. Only used blocks are copied to save space and increase the speed. The image file can be compressed, in gzip or bzip2 formats.
Enhancements:
- A few fixes and updates were done.

LivEPICS is a Linux live CD that includes: Epics Base (release R3.14.7), Extensions tools, introductory documents and manuals. It has the complete functionality to develop a small control system, but it is mainly intended for training classes or to monitor and supervise an EPICS network.
The goal of LivEPICS is:
- Allows to use EPICS without installation on the hard disk.
- Automatic setup of environment variables to compile and test new applications from scratch.
- Includes the basic tools (MEDM, VDCT, etc.) with the related documentation.

Parallel Port Make project is a tool to build FreeBSD ports in parallel to fully take advantage of modern multi-core and processor machines.

jPicEdt is a multi-platform vector-based graphic editor for LaTeX and related packages, including eepic and PsTricks.
The LaTeX picture environment is a special environment for inserting simple drawing commands into a LaTeX file.
This environment was obviously not intented to replace more sophisticated graphical formats such as Postscript or PDF (and their associated design tools: Adobe Illustrator, Macromedia Freehand,...), but was merely aimed at easily incorporating small and simple drawings (e.g. graphs, electrical schematics,...)
Yet picture commands are flexible enough to allow one to build rather complicated drawings, including circles, rectangles, lines and vectors, bezier splines.
Besides, using epic/eepic or PsTricks packages largely increases the set of available commands, and amongst other things, allows for shape-filling (and colours with PsTricks) and a better rendering of shapes.
Finally, one of the main benefits of using the picture environment is the ability to incorporate text containing any LaTeX command allowed in LR mode, e.g. equations, arrays or user-defined commands.
Main features:
- Every graphical element allowed by the picture environment commands: lines, arrows, circles, boxes.
- Emulated elements, for example lines of any slope (which LaTeX doesnt support natively), circles of any size, ellipses, arcs and polygons. This makes a strong use of the multiput command.
- Nearly every object allowed by the epic/eepic packages (excluding grids and textured filling): dashed lines, filled (whitened, blackened or shaded) ellipses or polygons, arcs,... Using this package is optional.
- Starting from version 1.3.2, nearly every object in the pstricks.sty package (this include : filling with colors, hatches, textures, setting various stroke parameters, rotating texts,...). Support for pst-node.sty and other related packages is either experimental (meaning that you must recompile with a boolean flag turned on) or simply underway.

TinyMARE project is a Multi-user Adventure Roleplaying Epic MUD server.
TinyMARE (Multi-user Adventure Roleplaying Epic) is a text-based MUD server completely rewritten for efficiency using TinyMUSH and TinyMUSE as a basis for its game engine.
The server is designed for creating an extensive, novelistic role-playing atmosphere supporting real-time combat, day & night, seasons, and global weather.
Using a telnet client, players can log on to explore a virtual world, find magical items, learn skills and techniques, and group together to surpass obstacles you create in your own epic adventure.
Enhancements:
- The path(), nearest(), and rdiv() functions were added. A new "privs" attribute flag that lets user-defined functions operate with object owners privileges was added.
- Many outstanding bugs were fixed.
