Free stdin software for linux

dicelab allows you to express complex dice rolling schemes in a functional language and then roll dice according to such a scheme or analyze the statistic distribution of values.
It is useful when designing games (and to some degree when playing them).
Usage: dicelab [options] [-f < file >]
Options:
--help -h -? print this text
--version -v print the program version
--print-tree -p print the parse tree (for debugging)
--eval -e evaluate the statistical distribution by
re-rollingp
--count -c specify the number of rolls used with --eval
default is 10000
--roll -r roll the dice as specified, will also be used
if no other action is requested
File:
--file -f read the dice rolling specs from the file
specified, use stdin if not supplied
Enhancements:
- The program is much faster now.

This is proxytunnel, a program that connects stdin and stdout to an origin server through HTTPS proxy.
Short guide to installing proxytunnel
On most modern unix systems, use the normal Makefile
On MAC OS X, use Makefile.darwin
If you dont have gnu-getopts, use Makefile.no-gnu-getopts
If you want to enable setproctitle functionality, add a CFLAGS define -DSETPROCTITLE (uncomment sample in Makefile)
Run make and optionally make install.
If you manually want to install, copy proxytunnel to /usr/local/bin and optionally the manual-page from the debian-subdirectory to your manpath.
Enhancements:
- Fixed buffer/malloc issue
- Clean-up usage info/help text
- Remove spurious syslog
- Added build-number to versionstring

Prostat software is a statistic tool for Squid.

HOWTO

Archive prostat_1.3.tar.gz contains very little documentation so heres the extra short manual for how to use prostat:

1. install prostat package
2. make your own copy of /usr/local/prostat/prostat.conf and edit it as you want (or edit directly /usr/local/prostat/prostat.conf)
3. run

prostat +g

(or just prostat in case you do not make copy of prostat.conf)

Example:

cat /var/log/squid/access.log.0 | prostat +g/usr/local/prostat/myconf.conf -

this produces statistic for entries in rotated log using options stored in /usr/local/prostat/myconf.conf file (option LOGFILE is ignored while prostat (in this example) is taking log data from stdin)

Note: do not insert space after +g option

Tips:

- use prostat and crontab to generate statistic automaticly as often as you want
- look at analhead.h in source prostat_1.3.tar.gz archive for some information about command-line options

WWW::Facebook::API is a Facebook API implementation.

SYNOPSIS

use WWW::Facebook::API;

my $client = WWW::Facebook::API->new(
desktop => 1,
throw_errors => 1,
parse => 1,
);

print "Enter your public API key: ";
chomp( my $val = < STDIN > );
$client->api_key($val);
print "Enter your API secret: ";
chomp($val = < STDIN > );
$client->secret($val);

print "Enter your e-mail address: ";
chomp(my $email = < STDIN > );
$client->secret($val);
print "Enter your password: ";
chomp(my $pass = < STDIN > );

my $token = $client->auth->login( email => $email, pass => $pass );
$client->auth->get_session( $token );

use Data::Dumper;
my $friends_perl = $client->friends->get;
print Dumper $friends_perl;

my $notifications_perl = $client->notifications->get;
print Dumper $notifications_perl;

# Current users quotes
my $quotes_perl = $client->users->get_info(
uids => $friends_perl,
fields => [quotes]
);
print Dumper $quotes_perl;

$client->auth->logout;

A Perl implementation of the Facebook API, working off of the canonical Java and PHP implementations. By default it uses JSON::Any to parse the response returned by Facebooks server. There is an option to return the raw response in either XML or JSON (See the parse method below).

Scalar::Util is a selection of general-utility scalar subroutines.

SYNOPSIS

use Scalar::Util qw(blessed dualvar isweak readonly refaddr reftype tainted
weaken isvstring looks_like_number set_prototype);

Scalar::Util contains a selection of subroutines that people have expressed would be nice to have in the perl core, but the usage would not really be high enough to warrant the use of a keyword, and the size so small such that being individual extensions would be wasteful.

By default Scalar::Util does not export any subroutines. The subroutines defined are

blessed EXPR

If EXPR evaluates to a blessed reference the name of the package that it is blessed into is returned. Otherwise undef is returned.

$scalar = "foo";
$class = blessed $scalar; # undef

$ref = [];
$class = blessed $ref; # undef

$obj = bless [], "Foo";
$class = blessed $obj; # "Foo"

dualvar NUM, STRING

Returns a scalar that has the value NUM in a numeric context and the value STRING in a string context.

$foo = dualvar 10, "Hello";
$num = $foo + 2; # 12
$str = $foo . " world"; # Hello world

isvstring EXPR

If EXPR is a scalar which was coded as a vstring the result is true.

$vs = v49.46.48;
$fmt = isvstring($vs) ? "%vd" : "%s"; #true
printf($fmt,$vs);

isweak EXPR

If EXPR is a scalar which is a weak reference the result is true.

$ref = $foo;
$weak = isweak($ref); # false
weaken($ref);
$weak = isweak($ref); # true

NOTE: Copying a weak reference creates a normal, strong, reference.

$copy = $ref;
$weak = isweak($ref); # false

looks_like_number EXPR

Returns true if perl thinks EXPR is a number. See "looks_like_number" in perlapi.

openhandle FH

Returns FH if FH may be used as a filehandle and is open, or FH is a tied handle. Otherwise undef is returned.

$fh = openhandle(*STDIN); # *STDIN
$fh = openhandle(*STDIN); # *STDIN
$fh = openhandle(*NOTOPEN); # undef
$fh = openhandle("scalar"); # undef

readonly SCALAR

Returns true if SCALAR is readonly.

sub foo { readonly($_[0]) }

$readonly = foo($bar); # false
$readonly = foo(0); # true

refaddr EXPR

If EXPR evaluates to a reference the internal memory address of the referenced value is returned. Otherwise undef is returned.

$addr = refaddr "string"; # undef
$addr = refaddr $var; # eg 12345678
$addr = refaddr []; # eg 23456784

$obj = bless {}, "Foo";
$addr = refaddr $obj; # eg 88123488

reftype EXPR

If EXPR evaluates to a reference the type of the variable referenced is returned. Otherwise undef is returned.

$type = reftype "string"; # undef
$type = reftype $var; # SCALAR
$type = reftype []; # ARRAY

$obj = bless {}, "Foo";
$type = reftype $obj; # HASH

set_prototype CODEREF, PROTOTYPE

Sets the prototype of the given function, or deletes it if PROTOTYPE is undef. Returns the CODEREF.

set_prototype &foo, $$;

tainted EXPR

Return true if the result of EXPR is tainted

$taint = tainted("constant"); # false
$taint = tainted($ENV{PWD}); # true if running under -T

weaken REF

REF will be turned into a weak reference. This means that it will not hold a reference count on the object it references. Also when the reference count on that object reaches zero, REF will be set to undef.

This is useful for keeping copies of references , but you dont want to prevent the object being DESTROY-ed at its usual time.

{
my $var;
$ref = $var;
weaken($ref); # Make $ref a weak reference
}
# $ref is now undef

Note that if you take a copy of a scalar with a weakened reference, the copy will be a strong reference.

my $var;
my $foo = $var;
weaken($foo); # Make $foo a weak reference
my $bar = $foo; # $bar is now a strong reference

This may be less obvious in other situations, such as grep(), for instance when grepping through a list of weakened references to objects that may have been destroyed already:

@object = grep { defined } @object;

This will indeed remove all references to destroyed objects, but the remaining references to objects will be strong, causing the remaining objects to never be destroyed because there is now always a strong reference to them in the @object array.

degtodec.sh is a script which does conversion between decimal numbers and degree values (degrees, minutes, seconds, or hours, minutes, seconds). Possible input methods are interactively, by parameter, or directly via stdin. The project can be used, for example, for geographical conversions or for special astrological calculations.

ipsort script sorts a STDIN of IP addresses to STDOUT. It sorts by the first octet, then by the second, the third and the fourth.

Usage: Takes Standard in or a file or list of files. So ipsort < file1 > < file2 > or cat < file > | ipsort
Its quite clever and looks for an IP address on each line, rejecting if it doesnt find one

Options:

-c or --commas Separate the list by space-separated commas, rather than one IP per line.
-u or --unique Uniquely sort the list as well, to avoid duplicate IPs.
-s or --string Use this string to separate the IPs. Eg. -s :
-m or --multiple Search for multiple IP addresses per line.
-h or --help Display this usage message.
