Beos provides a beautiful set of icons.

Matthew McClintock created a beautiful set of icons for Mac OS X, that I converted to create this icon theme about one the best desktop OS I know.

For the moment, the theme is not fully complete: some of the mime icons are defined. I will finalize it later.

newfile is a program for creating starter files, or trees of files, by processing templates with a C-preprocessor-like syntax.

newfile generates "starting-out" files using a full featured template preprocessor. It can also generate trees of files, for example, a FreeBSD port or a project using automake and autoconf.

A user can add their own template files and directories to those supplied with the package. It includes templates for making "empty" files for Ruby, make, shell, C, C++, C & C++ headers, and more.

Variables

Builtins

Some variables are built into the system, and should always be defined. Some will get default values if not defined.

TEMPLATE

The name of the template used to construct the current project or file(s).

NAME

The name of the input file, minus any directory prefix.

NAMEID

An identifier based on NAME.

PROJECT

If a project template is being expanded, this is the name of the template.

PROJECTID

An identifier based on PROJ.

LICENSE

Defined by the command line option -l/--license. Licenses are a special case of project templates, and their files are mixed in with a project templates file. In the case of a single file, the value of LICENSE determines which directory to search for a file called ``license that is included in the generated file.

AUTHOR

Defined by the command line option -a/--author. The name of the author of the code or document. If not given, taken from the users full name in the /etc/passwd file.

EMAIL

Defined by the command line option -e/--email. If not given, constructed from the users login name and the hostname.

ORGANIZATION

The organization to which the author belongs, in the context of the code or document being created. If not given, defaults to the value of AUTHOR.

OWNER

Defined by the command line option -o/--owner. The owner of the copyright. May be an arbitrary string, or one of the special strings ``org, ``organization, or ``author. If not given, defaults to ``author.

BODY

If defined, indicates to many templates to include extra boilerplate text to define a skeleton body for the file. See the individual templates for details. The shell and ruby templates are especially good examples, since these are the languages Ive been using most and these templates have received the most attention to detail.

QAA is a XUL Mozilla Firefox extension that performs a user supplied test list on a Web application. Test sessions can be defined by example.
A report is generated when sessions are replayed.
Enhancements:
- This release can load and save .qaa files (Quality Assurance Agent file format), record a journey in the tested site using definition by example, and perform a test bench with a log style report.

PySnippet is a code snippet manager for any language.
It features a user defined folder hierarchy, syntax highlighting, automatic clipboard copying, and an XML based data file.
Enhancements:
- A snippet properties window and an about window were created.

The Useful Terminal I/O library is a C++ alternative to ncurses for working with terminfo-defined terminals. Included are raw terminfo string access and output, an efficient buffered output system, and a keyboard driver.

Installation:

./configure
make
make install

./configure --help lists configuration options, like setting an installation path other than /usr/local. To use the library, include utio.h and link with -lutio. Look at the example programs in the demo directory to start with something that is known to work.

The ORTE is an implementation of the RTPS communication protocol defined by Real Time Innovations.

RTPS is an application layer protocol targeted to the real-time communication area. It is built on top of a standard UDP stack.

- User-defined charsets
- New modifiers, including user-defined conversion tables
- Timing and benchmarking functions
- Any password length

polld is a simple daemon that periodically opens files defined in /etc/polld.
polld project can be used for scanning partitions in a card reader that does not report card insertion and removal.
I use this for scanning partitions in card reader, which does not report card
insertion/removal. With polld, they appear in 10 seconds after insertion and
udev will then create appripriate device nodes.
Enhancements:
- New release.
- Use LSB init script.
