Free paradise 2000 software for linux

Paradise 2000 represents my bend of the Paradise Netrek client. Paradise 2000 Netrek Client is not a fork, because that would imply parallel development, but no one else has done anything with the client since about five years ago.
Paradise 2000 is in fact one of the most, if not the most, actively developed Netrek clients available today. It is for Linux (and FreeBSD) only, and is not open source*. Dont let the Paradise name fool you, it works just fine on standard bronco servers. Nobody has even played a game of Paradise Netrek for years!
The biggest new feature of the client, not found in any other, is the sound system. While the old Paradise client, Ted Turner, COW, and COW ports (Netrek1999,2000) have a simple sound effect system, its crap. Especially the one used by COW. The Paradise/Ted Turner one is better, and is partially written by me, though you wouldnt know that*.
The Paradise 2000 sound system has psychoacoustic stereo effects that place sounds based on where they happen. If someone on the left blows up, you can tell they are on the left just from the sound. The newest version of Paradise-2000 has a sound system with speech output using IBMs ViaVoice TTS. If a teammate sends a carrying message, the client will actually say something like, "F one carrying five to org."
Main features:
- See weapons on galactic map
- Auto-rotate galaxy to put playing teams on left side
- Dashboard timer to show repair or refit time remaining
- See the army count for the planet your are orbiting
- Remap your keys via the help window. Just push the key you want over the name of the function you want to assign to it.
- Use the same key for both bombing armies and picking armies. The client can tell by context with one would make sense.
- You can set configuration options to different values for different server types.
- Double buffering support for graphics. When turned on, eliminates flicker. Very useful for LCD monitors.
- Extensive support for enhanced observer mode:
- See all players tractors and pressors while observing.
- You can lock onto a cloaked player and observe them.
- All your ship stats will reflect the player you are observing. Even torps out, kills, and army capacity.
- Your ship and player letter dont get drawn on top of the player you are observings ship and letter.
- Observers wont have stats shown in your player list, cluttering it up unnecessarily..
- Stereo sound effects!
- Highly configurable speech synthesis!
- Option to omit the team letter of ships on the galactic. Just show 0 instead of F0, since you can tell the team by the color of the letter.
- Game score on hockey servers calculated and put on the galactic for easy reference.
- Cool looking streaking background stars when transwarping on Bronco servers.
- Flags on the dashboard gauges indicating the fuel/shields/hull needed to refit or transwarp.
- Single key transwarp on Bronco servers. Push - to automatically lock onto your base and warp to it!
- 19FLAGS protocol enhancement. Reduces messed up flags from packetloss. Hockey players, this will eliminate stuck tractors and pressors.
- Works with WindowMaker. Window manager delete buttons work.
- Hockey bug fix, puck doesnt cloak at warp 15 or 31.
- Support for short packets 2. Reduces bandwidth and improves playability with packetloss.
- Supports SBHOURS feature, see how many base hours someone has.
- Shrink phasers, like BRMH.
- Support for wheel mice. The wheel will scroll the message windows, and can be bound to actions like other mouse buttons.
- Re-enter the game after dying by pushing the spacebar, instead of clicking on the right team window. Faster and prevents selecting the wrong team on accident in 4v4 hockey games.
- 32 position ship bitmaps. Your ship rotations will look smoother.
- Small red circle around ship shows det radius.
- Tic marks to show exact ship heading.
- Arrow on puck to indicate direction.
- ID of player you are tractoring displayed next to your ship.
- Configure what columns are in the player list, both the one-column and two-column list. You can also change the width of the each field, so show fewer digits for instance.
- UDP portswap option that lets the client work through NAT firewalls, like Linux IP_MASQ, without a special module.

Hes got to shoot them before they ruin his fishing weekend.
The game mechanics resemble Space Invaders.
Enhancements:
- Added Mouse control (with -rat command line option)

ptyaim is a very simple, extra special curses client for AOLs Instant Messenger (AIM) and ICQ services, plus Internet Relay Chat (IRC). ptyaims project interface is somewhat inspired by naim. However, it uses no code from naim.
The latest version of ptyaim has been tested on Linux, FreeBSD, OpenBSD, NetBSD, Solaris, Tru64 Unix, Mac OS 10.3, and Microsoft Windows 2000. Most likely, it will work on other platforms, too.
Enhancements:
- This new version of ptyaim features improvements to the OSCAR plugin, including support for group chat.
- The TOC plugin has also been removed.

Spreadsheet::WriteExcel module is can be used to create native Excel binary files.

Formatted text and numbers can be written to multiple worksheets in a workbook. Formulas and functions are also supported. It is 100% Perl and doesnt require any Windows libraries or a copy of Excel.

It will also work on the majority of Unix and Macintosh platforms. Generated files are compatible with Excel 97, 2000, 2002, and 2003, and with OpenOffice and Gnumeric. An older version also supports Excel 5/95.

Encode::JIS2K is a Perl module forJIS X 0212 (aka JIS 2000) Encodings.

SYNOPSIS

use Encode::JIS2K;
use Encode qw/encode decode/;
$euc_2k = encode("euc-jisx0213", $utf8);
$utf8 = decode("euc-jisx0213", $euc_jp);

ABSTRACT

This module implements encodings that covers JIS X 0213 charset (AKA JIS 2000, hence the module name). Encodings supported are as follows.

Its the most efficient method of accessing MS SQL Servers data from Python scripts. If you care about performance, you can give it a try.
Supported Platforms
pymssql 0.7.4 has been tested on FreeBSD 6.0, NetBSD 2.1, 3.0, Linux with kernel 2.6, and Windows XP. It should also run on other platforms.

JPSEEK and JPHIDE are 2 programs that allows you to hide a file in a jpeg visual image. There are lots of versions of similar programs available on the internet but JPHIDE and JPSEEK are rather special.

The design objective was not simply to hide a file but rather to do this in such a way that it is impossible to prove that the host file contains a hidden file. Given a typical visual image, a low insertion rate (under 5%) and the absence of the original file, it is not possible to conclude with any worthwhile certainty that the host file contains inserted data.

As the insertion percentage increases the statistical nature of the jpeg coefficients differs from "normal" to the extent that it raises suspicion. Above 15% the effects begin to become visible to the naked eye. Of course some images are much better than others when used a host file - plenty of fine detail is good. A cloudless blue sky over a snow covered ski paradise is bad. A waterfall in a forest is probably ideal.

Instructions:

jphide input-jpeg-file output-jpeg-file file-to-be-hidden

jpseek input-jpeg-file output-hidden-file

Building the programs:

Get the sources for the jpeg library jpeg-6a.
I got mine from a RedHat cd.

Compile them following the instructions that came with them.

Check them out - there is a "make test".

Use tar to put the new programs into the directory containing
the standard jpeg-6a sources:

tar -xzf jphs.tgz

Patch the makefile:
