Free patch software for linux

Patch Maker helps you manage multiple in-progress source code patches to software. Patch Maker remembers which files are part of which patch, and keeps them disentangled during the development process.
It speeds up common operations and housekeeping tasks, allowing you to focus on writing code. It is a command-line tool written in Perl, and so is usable on (at least) Windows, Linux and Mac OS X.
Enhancements:
- Initial SVN support was added to go with CVS.
- The configuration was moved to the .pmrc file in the home directory.
- Message and error printing were tidied up and standardized.

KTouch is a program for learning how to touch-type. KTouch is FREE software and offers you an easy way to learn to type on a keyboard quickly and correctly. Every finger has its place on the keyboard with associated keys to press.
Starting with only a few keys to remember you will advance through the levels of the training lecture while more and more keys are introduced. And finally you will be able to type very fast and accurate, because you no longer need to search for the keys on the keyboard (and because you will definitely use more then just two fingers).
KTouch shows the keys you need to press and the finger you need to use for that key on the screen. You neednt to look down on the keyboard to search the key. Therefore you will get used to looking at the screen only and thus you will learn touch typing much faster.
Main features:
- KTouch supports various keyboard layouts and you can easily add own keyboard layouts
- A number of training lectures are included by default (english, german, french ... etc)
- You can add and modify training lectures using the built-in lecture editor
- Detailed training statistics help you to find possible typing problems (keys that you typed wrong very often)
- The program calculates typing speed and your accuracy on-the-fly and displays them while you type
- Many settings (including the colour scheme of the program) can be modified by the user
- During training the level can be adjusted automatically according to your typing skill: if you type fast and correctly you will move a level up, otherwise stay in the level or even move down. So you will learn touch typing like playing a game.

Patch provided by Gavin:
In trying to help a linux user group member compile ktouch 1.6.0
standalone version, I encountered a few errors.
o Only version 2.5 of autoconf was acceptable, 2.6 not allowed
o autoconf was checked for in --version output of the autoheader check
o ktouch/keyboards/Makefile.am had a trailing slash but no new line
Some minor changes all resulted in a successful `make -f Makefile.cvs`
Ive attached these changes in the patch attached and in a modified tar.gz.
I also noted that there are some .svn directories in the release. You
probably already know but, svn export will help you with that.

kfile_raw_patch package contains a patch against kdegraphics-3.5.5 enabling thumbnail images and exif meta data for raw images.

Works also for kdegraphics-3.5.6 and 3.5.7.

The plugin uses code from libkexiv2 and parts from rawimage.

Installation:

cd kdegraphics-3.5.5
patch -i kdegraphics-raw-exiv2-3.5.5-2.patch -p1
./configure
cd kfile-plugins/raw
make
cp .libs/kfile_raw.so .libs/kfile_raw.la .libs/rawimagethumbnail.so .libs/rawimagethumbnail.la /usr/kde/3.5/lib/kde3
cp kfile_raw.desktop rawimagethumbnail.desktop /usr/kde/3.5/share/services

To have translated meta tags, copy /usr/kde/3.5/share/locale/[lng]/LC_MESSAGES/kfile_jpeg.mo to kfile_raw.mo

Finally youll need to run "kbuildsycoca" and restart konqueror.

On Gentoo, this patch can also simply be included in a portage overlay.

patch-o-matic-ng it is a system to apply netfilter-related patches to the latest kernel and/or iptables sources.

FOLLOW THESE STEPS:

0) There may be some outstanding bugfixes or tweaks which are not yet in the official kernel. To look through these, do:

# KERNEL_DIR=
IPTABLES_DIR=
./runme pending

Please note that you have to recompile your kernel and your kernel modules after this step of kernel patching.

Thats it!

FEELING BRAVE?

1) The netfilter core team is maintaining a set of extensions / new features which are not yet committed to the mainstream kernel tree.

They are a collection of maybe-broken maybe-cool third-party extensions.

Please note that you cannot apply any combination of any of those patches. Some of them are incompatible...

This is why we provide two ways of applying them:

If you want to try some extensions, and be sure that they dont break each other, you can do the following:

# KERNEL_DIR=
IPTABLES_DIR=
./runme base

It will modify you kernel source (so back it up first!). You will have to recompile / rebuild your kernel and modules.

Alternatively, if you really know what your are doing, you can use the following command in order to offer you the full list of choices. Be aware that we dont prevent you from shooting yourself in the foot.

% KERNEL_DIR=
IPTABLES_DIR=
./runme extra
