Free powerful tool software for linux

KJam is a build tool like make. It uses a syntax similar to Jam, with more powerful features than the original Jam.
It has built-in very fast dependency scanning, per-target viewpathing, and C-like control flow. It is optimized for multi-processor machines. It can accelerate building by launching build actions on a distributed peer to peer network of build servers.
KJam Build Tool is designed to support large projects with thousands of targets, or projects requiring building on many target architectures.
KJam is designed to be:
Unintrusive and clean KJam is small. It has negligible CPU overhead, and it doesnt create or leave behind temporary files.
Scalable KJam is able to build large projects spread across many directories in a single pass and can manage and distribute build steps to multiple processors on one or more networked machines.
Highly portable KJam currently runs only on Windows, but it is designed to be easily portable. Ports to Linux and OSX are planned.
Multiplatform Platform independent rules and platform specific actions can be defined separately from dependency rules.
Customizable Developers can enhance and extend KJam by creating user defined rules to utilize other built-in directives.
Language KJam includes flow-control statements, variables, and a few other features of general purpose languages.
Automatic Dependencies KJam computes dependencies for its targets during building. There is no need for a separate off-line make depend step.
Enhancements:
- A new "immediate" action modifier keyword was added, which causes actions to be run as soon as they are parsed, instead of during the command phase.
- Output formatting was improved.
- Several bugs were fixed.

Pioneer Linux is a desktop-oriented, Kubuntu-based distribution targeted at new as well as experienced Linux users. The product comes in two flavours: as a freely downloadable live and installation CD, and as a commercial boxed edition with CrossOver Office and technical support.
Test and try before you install Thats right, you can test Pioneer Linux running off the CD before you decide to perform an installation. This means that you can actually run your operating system and learn it before you install or make that critical decision to leave your previous operating system installation. ASPEN for older computers is not a live CD.
Burn CDs Yes take a look at our screenshots and youll see weve included a utility named K3b so you can burn your CDs or DVDs! K3b is a simple yet powerful tool thats simple to use
Browse the Internet safely Yes its safe! You can browse the Internet safely when you use Pioneer Linux. Its not the same anymore with people dropping viruses or keystroke loggers because of that old unsafe browser youve been using for years! Go wild and have fun!
Listen to music You can listen to your favorite music while working using the CD Player included or make cuts and create your own CD from your music! You decide, the tools are included!
Word processing and more! Yes thats right! Your Pioneer Linux operating system comes with OpenOffice.org that allows you to exchange documents with Word users. You even have the opportunity to run spreadsheets and create professional presentations. More? yes a database application is new with OpenOffice.org 2.0
Play some games Weve packed Pioneer with loads of games to help you kill some time. Want more than those included? Check the knowledge base for more games that can be run like Savage or Civilization.
Utilities Weve included some of the best utilities to manage your operating system today. These utilities come with even our basic ASPEN application so you can manage your system day-to-day!
Enhancements:
- Technalign, Inc. has released Pioneer Basic 2.1 of its base Linux operating system. Pioneer Basic 2.1 is being released on DVD. Technalign will continue to ship Pioneer Basic 2.0 for those users who do not wish to purchase a DVD drive for their systems. Pioneer Basic 2.1 is similar to Basic 2.0 with several exceptions. The biggest exception is that Pioneer 2.1 is based on Feisty and not Edgy while it continues to be based on Kubuntu. Adept is no longer incorporated as the update manager, but is now replaced with Synaptic per the business and consumer communities. Also notable are the Guarddog Firewall as well as the KlamAV anti-virus utilities that have been added and OpenOffice.org 2.2.

Major Features:

1. The EDDIE Tool can perform all basic system monitoring checks, such as: filesystem; processes; system load; and network configuration. It can also perform such network monitoring tasks as: ping checks; HTTP checks; POP3 tests; SNMP queries; RADIUS authentication tests; and customized TCP port checks. Finally, a few checks lend themselves to security monitoring: watching files for changes; and scanning logfiles.
2. The EDDIE Tool can also send any collected statistic to RRD files to be displayed graphically by any standard RRD tool. No need to run multiple monitoring and data collection agents.
3. Monitoring rules are just like Python expressions and can be as simple or as complex as needed. Advanced alert control functionality such as exponential back-off and dependencies are also standard.
4. The EDDIE Tool has been designed to be as platform-independent as possible. It is written in 100% Python and will run on all platforms that Python runs on. Only a few system-dependent modules must be customized for individual platforms for system data collection. System-dependent modules are included for: Linux; Solaris; HP-UX; OpenBSD; Darwin/OS X; FreeBSD and Windows (Win32) .

Requirements: Python

DParser project is an simple but powerful tool for parsing. You can specify the form of the text to be parsed using a combination of regular expressions and grammar productions.
Because of the parsing technique (technically a scannerless GLR parser based on the Tomita algorithm) there are no restrictions.
The grammar can be ambiguous, right or left recursive, have any number of null productions, and because there is no seperate tokenizer, can include whitespace in terminals and have terminals which are prefixes of other terminals.
DParser handles not just well formed computer languages and data files, but just about any wacky situation that occurs in the real world.
Main features:
- Powerful GLR parsing
- Simple EBNF-style grammars and regular expression terminals
- Priorities and associativities for token and rules
- Built-in error recovery
- Speculative actions (for semantic disambiguation)
- Auto-building of parse tree (optionally)
- Final actions as you go, or on the complete parse tree
- Tree walkers and default actions (multi-pass compilation support)
- Symbol table built for ambiguous parsing
- Partial parses, recursive parsing, parsing starting with any non-terminal
- Whitespace can be specified as a subgrammar
- External (C call interface) tokenizers and external terminal scanners
- Good asymptotically efficiency
- Comes with ANSI-C, Python and Verilog grammars
- Comes with full source
- Portable C for easy compilation and linking
- BSD licence, so you can included it in your application without worrying about licensing
Enhancements:
- Removed call to exec in python interface (Brian Sabbey)
- Fix binary_op_left in python interface (Brian Sabbey)

Tweakers HOWTOs Tamer is designed to be useful for people new to GNU/Linux by providing quick, easy access to the HOWTO documents via menus. Access to specific points within documents is provided via filemarks. Tamer is built as a general purpose tool and can be modified to fit other plain-text tasks.

Search facilities include a powerful graphics-based extension for grep searches on files and directories as well as an internal search tool for searching files when loaded into a Tamer. Internet search access is provided via highlight-and-click access to web site searches via the users browser directly from within a document.

Additional features include a built-in editor with Line Loops editing and an interface to the GNU Projects Aspell spell check program. Complete help information and program feedback tools are provided within the Tamer and Tamer Tutor.

Daftnee Reader is a visual mode of the HOWTOs Tamer made for easy, comfortable reading on a computer screen. It has been designed with the Project Gutenberg files in mind but works well with other plain text files. Additional Daftnee Reader features include comprehensive sessions facilities, index listing of files by title in addition to file name, and Quick Directory lists and functions. All Tamer tools are readily available when in Daftnee Reader mode.

Qonqitzewautl is a built-in tool kit providing added functionality to plain text files without modifying the files. Small buttons called zewautl are overlaid on the files in the display window and provide access to other files, images and Internet URLs. When combined with grep search, goto zewautl provide an especially powerful tool for all GNU/Linux/Unix users, newbie to guru. Full Qonqitzewautl functionality is available in both Tamer and Daftnee Reader modes.

Tamer Tutor is a small, self-contained program external to the Tamer. It is designed to be a beginners guide to working with the Tamer and as an additional quick reference. It includes subjects for the primary features of the Tamer with multiple topics under each subject addressing configuration and use of the Tamer and tools.

An install-sh graphics-based installer is included with this version of the Tamer. It is a small program which guides the user through the simple install process. The installer is made with new users in mind and has step-by-step instructions with explanations throughout the installation process. The installer has an add user feature which makes it simple to install a Tamer for additional users.

ADMLogger is a log analyzing engine based on fireparse. After I had written fireparse, I had found myself writing little scripts based on it. Like one that told me what my FTP server did that day. And then more things like - were unauthorized machines trying to get IP addresses from my DHCP server? So I decided to rip out the engine of fireparse to create a generic log analyzer system. Using this core, I could easily build upon it with plugins. This also made it easier on my systems since there was now only one entry for cron, and I didnt have different code everywhere - a bug fix in fireparse had me searching the rest of my systems looking to see if I still used that line.
For the average Linux user, ADMLogger will probably only be a means to an end - that end being able to run fireparse. But with very little Perl programming knowledge, it may become a powerful tool in a System Administrators toolbox.
ADMLogger creates e-mail reports that can be formatted plain text or full HTML, which is up to the plugin designers to support. The main system has a HTML preference, so if your plugin ignores it, so be it. ADMLogger will also remove all filtered entries from the main syslog file into a second file so your other entries are more noticable.
Enhancements:
- Improved non-HTML output support for ALL plugins.
