libSRTP library is an open-source implementation of the Secure Real-time Transport Protocol (SRTP) originally authored by Cisco Systems, Inc. It is available under a BSD-style license.
SRTP is a security profile for RTP that adds confidentiality, message authentication, and replay protection to that protocol. It is specified in RFC 3711. More information on the SRTP protocol itself can be found on the Secure RTP Page.
Installation:
./configure [ options ] # GNU autoconf script
make # or gmake if needed; use GNU make
The configure script accepts the following options:
--help provides a usage summary
--disable-debug compile without the runtime debugging system
--enable-syslog use syslog for error reporting
--disable-stdout use stdout for error reporting
--enable-console use /dev/console for error reporting
--gdoi use GDOI key management (disabled at present)
By default, debbuging is enabled and stdout is used for debugging. You can use the above configure options to have the debugging output sent to syslog or the system console. Alternatively, you can define ERR_REPORTING_FILE in include/conf.h to be any other file that can be opened by libSRTP, and debug messages will be sent to it.
This package has been tested on Mac OS X (powerpc-apple-darwin1.4),
Cygwin (i686-pc-cygwin), and Sparc (sparc-sun-solaris2.6). Previous
versions have been tested on Linux and OpenBSD on both x86 and sparc
platforms.
Enhancements:
- Release 1.4.4 is a snapshot of the code in CVS, which has been slowly accumulating minor fixes and extensions.

Audio::MPEG is a Perl module for encoding and decoding of MPEG Audio (MP3).

SYNOPSIS

use Audio::MPEG;

Audio::MPEG is a Perl interface to the LAME and MAD MPEG audio Layers I, II, and III encoding and decoding libraries.

Rationale

I have been building a fairly extensive MP3 library, and decided to write some software to help manage the collection. Its turned out to be a rather cool piece of software (incidentally, I will be releasing it under the GPL shortly), with both a web and command line interface, good searching, integrated ripping, archive statistics, etc.

However, I also wanted to be able to stream audio, and verify the integrity of files in the archive. It is certainly possible to stream audio (even with re-encoding at a different bitrate) without resorting to writing interface glue like this module, but verification of the files was clumsy at best (e.g. scanning stdout/err for strings), and useless at worst.
Thus, Audio::MPEG was born.

LAME

This is arguably the best quality MPEG encoder available (certainly the best GPL encoder). Portions of the code have been optimized to take advantage of some of the advanced features for Intel/AMD processors, but even on non-optimized machines, such as the PowerPC, it performs quite well (faster than real-time on late 90s (and later) machines).

MAD

This is a relatively new MPEG decoding library. I chose it after struggling to clean up the MPEG decoding library included with LAME (which is based on Michael Hipps mpg123(1) implementation). In the end, I was very pleased with the results. MAD performs its decoding with an internal precision of 24 bits (pro-level quality) with fixed-point arithmetic. The code is very clean, and seems rock-solid. Although it may seem that it should be faster than the mpg123(1) library due to the use of fixed-point arithmetic, it is in fact about 60% or so of the speed (due to the higher resolution audio). However, the ease of coding against MAD, and the higher precision of the output more than makes up for the slower decoding.

Audio::MPEG can export the data at its highest precision for programs that wish to manipulate the data at the higher resolution.

Operating System Environment

I have only tested this on a Linux 2.4.x system so far, but I see no reason why it should not work on any Un*x variant. In fact, it may actually even work on a Windoze box (the underlying LAME and MAD libraries apparently compile somehow on them). I am doing no special magic with the interface, so presumably it will work under Windows. As you can probably tell, I dont really care if it does (Ill may start caring if M$ releases the source code to Windows under GPL, BSD, or Artistic licenses...). But, for you poor, misguided souls that insist upon running Windows, I expect that there should be little problem getting it to work.

Performance

You would think that with encoding/decoding audio, which is quite a compute-intensive task, Perl would be much slower than the equivalent pure C programs. Surprise... it is only about 3% slower (!) Even with the mechanism I use here (Perl->C->Perl for every frame, Perl 5.6.1 and Linux 2.4.4 (PowerPC 7500) performs just fantastic. So, the moral of this paragraph is to run your own performance tests, but theres no need to think of your own Perl encoder/decoder will be inferior to a pure C/C++ implementation. The only drawback is that, depending upon how much buffer space you use for reading, memory usage will be at least 3 times as much (eh... RAM is cheap...)

dhcpcd is an RFC2131-, RFC2132-, and RFC1541-compliant DHCP client daemon. dhcpcd gets an IP address and other information from a corresponding DHCP server, configures the network interface automatically, and tries to renew the lease time according to RFC2131 or RFC1541 depending on the command line option. Please see the dhcpcd man page for complete description of command-line options.
dhcpcd-1.3 has been reported to compile and successfully used on Intel, PowerPC, and Alpha-based Linux platforms providing glibc-2.0.5 or later has been installed.
Invoke the client by typing in console dhcpcd. Note you should NOT explicitly put it in the background with the & character - background processing is automatic unless dhcpcd was
compiled with -DDEBUG flag. Dhcpcd will fork into background as soon as it configures the interface. By default, dhcpcd will attach to eth0 unless you explicitly give an interface name on the command line.
The example below demonstrates dhcpcd usage in a case where linux box serves as a router/firewall for the local network 192.168.12.0.
Enhancements:
- Peter Poeml submitted patches to:
- 1. enable support for Token Ring.
- 2. disable second DHCP_DISCOVER message. S.V - added "-S" option to dhcpcd command line to make second DHCP_DISCOVER message optional.
- 3. Make dhcpcd write to the console if syslogd is not running only with "-d" DebugFlag.

SheepShaver is an Open Source PowerPC MacOS run-time environment. SheepShaver enables you to run PowerPC Classic MacOS software on your computer, even if you are using a different operating system.
However, you still need a copy of MacOS and a PowerMacintosh ROM image to use this program. SheepShaver is distributed under the terms of the GNU General Public License (GPL).
If you are using a PowerPC-based system, applications will run at native speeds (i.e. without any emulation involved). On other systems, SheepShaver provides the first PowerPC G4 emulator, though without MMU, to enable the execution of MacOS Classic.
Performance with the current CPU emulator using basic just-in-time (JIT) translation techniques is roughly 1/8-th of native speeds.
The following platforms are currently supported: Linux (i386, ppc, x86_64), MacOS X for ppc, Darwin, NetBSD 2.0, FreeBSD 5.3 and Windows for x86. Please note that I am pretty careless of the Windows version since I am not a Windows developer. You are heartly invited to join the effort!
NOTE: This webspace contains precompiled binaries and sources snapshots extracted from development CVS to ease testing until a formal release is available.
Main features:
- SheepShaver runs MacOS 7.5.2 thru MacOS 9.0.4
- PowerPC G4 emulation on non-PowerPC platforms, direct execution otherwise
- Copy and paste of text between MacOS and the host OS
- File exchange with the host OS via a Unix icon on the Mac desktop
- Color video display with support for run-time resolution switching
- Run-time depth switching from 1 bpp to current host depth settings
- Native QuickDraw 2D acceleration for BitBlt and FillRect operations
- CD-quality stereo sound output
- Networking: SheepShaver supports Internet and LAN networking via Ethernet and PPP with all Open Transport compatible MacOS applications
Enhancements:
- The emulator now supports up to 1 GB of Mac memory.
- SLiRP network emulation performance was improved.
- A minor bug in Native QuickDraw acceleration has been fixed.
- A crash during MacOS 9 installation has been fixed.
- A crash with the AppleShare extension has been fixed.
- Support for MacOS 7.5.3 Revision 2.2 was improved.
- The program was ported to Mac OS X for Intel.
- Ports to certain non-Free platforms were improved.

EasyBMP is a simple, cross-platform C++ library designed for easily reading, writing, and modifying Windows bitmap (BMP) image files. You can learn more about the history and goals of the project here.
The library is oriented towards the novice programmer with little formal experience, but it is sufficiently capable for anybody who desires to do I/O and pixel operations on 1-bit, 4-bit, 8-bit, 24-bit, or 32-bit BMP files.
EasyBMP is intended to be cross-platform on both little-endian (e.g., x86, x86-64) and big-endian (e.g., IBM PowerPC, Sun Sparc) architectures. So far, it has been tested on x86 with Linux (2.4.x, 2.6.x kernels and g++ and icc) and Windows (XP Pro, XP Home, and 2K Pro with MinGW/g++), as well as on a Sun Sparc 4 machine (Solaris 5.9 with g++). EasyBMP should be solid on little-endian architectures and experimental on big-endian architectures.
Enhancements:
- This bug focuses on minor bugfixes, particularly in the copy constructor.
- Numerous other small bugs have also been fixed.
