Free macintosh binhex software for linux

FreeType 1 is a portable and highly efficient TrueType rendering engine, that is now successfully used to bring TrueType support to a very large variety of platforms and environments, be they font servers, graphics libraries or embedded systems.
FreeType 1 is a clean-room implementation that is not derived from the original TrueType engine developed by Apple and Microsoft. It has been created with the sole help of the published TrueType specifications, which to our great surprise (and pain) turned out to be extremely poor and misleading in critical areas. Much hard work has been undertaken to solve ambiguities. The end result is a portable and fast renderer.
Note that FreeType 1 is a library. It is not a font server for your favorite platform, even though it was designed to be used in many of them. Note also that it is not a complete text-rendering library. Its purpose is simply to open and manage font files, as well as load, hint and render individual glyphs efficiently. You can also see it as a "TrueType driver" for a higher-level library, though rendering text with it is easy, as demonstrated by the test programs.
Its quality matches these of Windows and the Macintosh, while its memory foot-print and code size (between 48 and 55 kByte of Intel code) remain modest. A thing that cannot be said for most other commercial engines available.
Main features:
- Supports TrueType files (TTF) and collections (TTC). Doesnt support GX or OpenType fonts, but these can be opened and used as normal TTF files by the library. (With the exception of OTF OpenType fonts which really embed a Type 1 font file within a TrueType storage).
- Modular design: Memory and I/O operations can be very easily tailored to your own platform/system (the standard release comes with ANSI libc support).
- Font smoothing, a.k.a. gray-scaling. Just like Win95, the renderer only smoothes the parts of a glyph which need it (i.e., diagonals and curves).
- Support for all character mappings defined in the TrueType specification. The client application can select whichever pleases it.
- A full-featured and efficient TrueType bytecode interpreter. The engine is able to produce excellent output at small point sizes. This component has been extremely difficult to get right, due to the ambiguous and misleadings TrueType specifications. However, we now match Windows and Mac qualities.
- Written in portable ANSI C (and Pascal, for older FreeType 1 versions). Should compile well on all kinds of systems (tested on 16, 32 and 64 bits processors). With full source code available.
- Open Source License. FreeType can be included in all kinds of commercial systems and software.
- Provides test programs to "show-off" the library, runnable on the following platforms: Dos, Unix, OS/2, Win95, and Amiga. Any porters for other systems are welcome and should contact the developers team.
- Support for extensions. These are separately linkable units which can be used to enhance the engines functionalities without recompiling it. They can be written to access additional TrueType tables, or even GX and/or OpenType ones (the latter is already available).
- Kerning support: The TrueType kerning data is available through one of the standard extensions that comes in this release. However, it is up to the application to "interpret" the data, as many different `formats are supported.
- Support for vertical metrics. The engine is able to provide client applications with vertical glyph metrics if they are found in font files (usually in CJKV fonts). If not present, it synthetizes metrics from the horizontal values, ascender, and descender metrics. This means that it is possible to render vertical text correctly.
- Standard extensions are provided to access and load the glyph names in the Postscript table.

Snoopy vs. the Red Baron is an open-source one/two player combat game, available for Mac OS X, Linux, BeOS, QNX and Windows.
The original Snoopy was a tiny game for the Apple Macintosh, with black and white graphics, but already almost all the levels of the new Snoopy/SDL were implemented.
Snoopy could be played by two opponents, sharing a single screen and keyboard, and although it had poor graphics and tough controls, we very much liked to play it.
While we learned programming, we constantly sought for simple, yet interesting projects. If you have ever tried to learn a new language or API, you will have recognized that the simplest way in mastering the stuff is simply reprogramming an existing application, without losing much thought on design and originality.
So my friend reprogrammed Snoopy, in Object Pascal, using SAT, the Sprite Animation Toolkit, on his Classic II. That version of Snoopy features a fully functional AI, network play, but only the first level ( weapons drop).
While he was at it, he also implemented a "missing feature", the bombs, for which there where graphics and sounds in the game, but which could not be thrown.
When I discovered SDL, I recognized that it would be ideal for the job. Running on Windows, Linux, MacOS, BeOS and many other platforms, it is my new toolkit of choice for multimedia programming. It took us several weeks to port Snoopy (besides going to school, but now the work is almost done, with only the finishing touches to be made.
I can only encourage everyone to try SDL; it is really easy and portable (if worked right).

Zip is a compression and file packaging utility for Unix, VMS, DOS, OS/2, Windows 9x/NT, Amiga, Atari, Macintosh, BeOS, SMS/QDOS, MVS, VM/CMS, and others.
Zip is analogous to a combination of the Unix commands tar(1) and compress(1) and is compatible with PKWAREs PKZIP and Nico Maks WinZip. Its part of the Info-ZIP project.
Main features:
- creating zipfiles in a pipe or on a device
- VMS and OS/2 extended file attributes
- conversion between Unix, MS-DOS and Macintosh text file formats
- the ability to run on most of your favorite operating systems.
Enhancements:
- fixed -R operation to match the supplied file patterns in all recursed subdirectories, like PKZIP 2.04 "-p -r" (or PKZIPC 4+ "-recurse")
- handle cases where -x, -R, and -i patterns are mixed
- new example C-Sharp code for using DLLs
- added some directory-search speedups
- fixed bug when encrypting large uncompressible files
- fixed Windows NTFS time problem
- fixed VMS logical name parse problem
- added VMS DEBUG option
- updated VMS help
- fixed selection of files to delete by date
- added -MM option where each input file pattern must match at least one file and all input files must be readable
- added check for when Zip tries to exceed seek limit in output file
- minor changes to compile with Visual C++ 2005
- added support for Unix FIFOs (named pipes)
- other minor fixes

Sequence Analysis project is a collage of coding projects which I have written over the past several years for various clients in my work as a bioinformatics consultant.

These clients have graciously allowed me to release these works into the public domain as freeware for Macintosh OS X in order to promote the platform and to encourage migration from Classic.

The upper window panel can hold several sequences, which are both editable and selectable. The tabs in the lower analysis panel try to keep up with the current sequence selection to provide immediate feedback. The selection is used in some modules as only the portion being analyzed for other modules i.e. Digest is used to determine if enzymes cut in the in or outside of the selection.

Most commonly available sequence formats have been reverse engineered. You can also access a sequences from the NCBI via its GID or UID. This currently cannot be done from behind a firewall.

Most of the analyses are simple enough that they are obvious to use, Composition, pI. Others could stand some documenation i.e. Pairwise and Primer Design. The Publish tab uses a string to control the layout. Click on the Legend button for some help.

PhotoDirectory project is a cross platform (Java) application to organize digital images. Great effort has been given to keeping these pictures in an order accessible without the need for any organization software - no databases are required.
PhotoDirectory was written using Java version 1.5 (commonly called 5.0 for some reason or another). You cannot run it on anything less than this. Depending on your system, you may need to explicitly state which Java VM to use. If you use Macintosh OS X, I include an application package that does everything for you. If you dont use OS X, now is a great time to try.
Main features:
- Multithreaded IO intensive operations
- Functional menus (Import, Move, etc)
- Quick Searching for pictures within the library
- Details view with zoom
- Edit images in external application (currently just for OS X - uses /Applications/GraphicConverter, but soon will be a user configurable option)
