Racer 0.5.2 beta8.9
Racer is a free car simulation project, using real car physics to get a realistic feeling. more>>
Racer is a free car simulation project, using real car physics to get a realistic feeling. Cars, tracks, scenes and such can be created with relative simplicity in mind (compared to other driving simulations).
The 3D and other file formats are, or should be, documented. Editors and support programs are also available to get a very flexible and expandable simulator. It uses OpenGL for rendering.
It attempts to do well at the physics section, trying to create life-like cars to emphasize car control and doesnt cut back on realism in the interest of fun. If youve played Grand Prix Legends from Papyrus, youll know what Im talking about.
Racer major features:
- Its totally free! (for non-commercial use)
- Available for multiple platforms; Windows 2000/XP (95/98/ME may work but have some trouble with fonts), Linux and Mac OS X.
- 6 DOF models used (the car can move around freely)
- Uses motion formulae from actual engineering documents from SAE for example.
- Total flexibility; almost everything is customizable through ASCII files.
- Commercial-quality rendering engine (with smoke, skidmarks, sparks, sun, flares, vertex-color lit tracks).
- Support for Matrox Surround Gaming. See the corresponding page on Matrox site.
- Lots of addon cars and tracks available on the web.
- Easy integration of your own cars and tracks that you create in ZModeler, 3D Studio Max(tm), Maya etc.
- At least 15 degrees of freedom for a regular car (6 DOF for the car body, 1 for each wheels vertical motion and 1 for each wheel spinning, and 1 for the engine, several more for the driveline). Depending actually on how many wheels you put on the car.
- Real-time internal clock; no physical dependency on framerate. Controller updates are also done independently of the framerate.
- Not limited to 4 wheels; anything from 2 to 8 wheel vehicles are currently supported (but mostly untested, and some problems with hardcoded differentials for example may exist (v0.5.0)).
- Not much constraints on the track data; surface info is taken from polygon data (VRML tracks), and splines are used to smooth out the track surface (polygons are too harsh for driving on just like that).
- Tools to modify the cars & tracks are freely available on this site (though external utilities are recommended for best results).
- Some used algorithms are explained on this site. Also, references are available. If you are programming a carsim, you might find something useful here.
- Save game present!
Main features:
PHYSICS FEATURES
- Full 6 degree of freedom motion of the car chassis.
- Independent suspension for all wheels.
- Suspension features: springs, dampers, anti-rollbar, rollcenter, anti-pitch.
- Wheel features: camber, wheel hop (the wheels have mass), toe.
- Tires: Pacejka tire model, relaxation length.
GRAPHICS FEATURES
- View frustum culling for increased framerate.
- Shader system for Quake-style rendering.

Panelizer project is a memory efficient desktop panel.
It works by holding all applets within the panel process itself.
Typical memory usage is currently around 1MB with 10 applets loaded.
Applets are provided by dynamically-loaded shared libraries, and new ones can be easily written using an easy C ABI.
Configuration is stored as XML and each applet has its own configuration data.
Here are some currently implemented applets of "Panelizer":
- launch menu (uses Open Desktop compatible entries)
- clock
- CPU instant load bar
- mail notifier (biff)
- removable drive mounter and ejecter
- network traffic monitor and (limited) launcher

Crikey 0.5
Crikey is a program to generate key events under X11. more>>
Crikey Map Strings to Keys is a program to generate key events under X11 on a Linux/Unix system, in order to provide a "QuickKeys"-like way to bind strings to a function key or other window manager event.
Usage:
crikey [-t] [-s sleeptime] args
Acts as if args was typed in whatever X window currently has focus.
-s sleeptime: sleep for sleeptime seconds before inserting the text. Many window managers need a delay for focus shifting or to allow the modifier button to be released. (New in 0.4: you can omit the space, e.g. -ssleeptime.)
-i (interactive) Read from standard input, instead of using the commandline arguments. This is useful if you need to generate more than one line at a time.
-t Use the XTest extension instead of normal X events (if available). In 0.3 and earlier, this was the default; but in some newer versions of XFree86 (for example, current Debian unstable), using XTest will cause the final key to repeat infinitely.
-d Debug: print debugging output.
If there are multiple arguments, single spaces will be inserted between them.
Enhancements:
- From Efraim Feinstein: Add -i option (read from stdin) and -d (print debug output); add "make uninstall" target.

Main features:
- Multi-platform. Supports Linux, Microsoft Windows and Mac OS
- Read-only support for PGN Files
- Work with multiple databases simultaneously
- Browse games
- Navigate through game, including variations
- Copy/Paste FEN/PGN
- Enter moves, setup board position
- Basic header search (click on columns in GameList header)
- Player database with picture support

Superswitcher 0.5
Superswitcher project is a more feature-ful replacement of the Alt-Tab window switching behavior. more>>
Superswitcher project is a more feature-ful replacement of the Alt-Tab window switching behavior.
SuperSwitcher is a (more feature-ful) replacement for the Alt-Tab window
switching behavior and Ctrl-Alt-Left/Right/Up/Down workspace switching behavior that is currently provided by Metacity.
When running, use the "Super" key (also known as the "Windows" key) to switch between windows and workspaces. This key is usually found between the Ctrl and Alt keys on the keyboard.
Super-Tab works just like Alt-Tab does (with and without Shift), but also:
Super-Up and Super-Down cycles through all windows in the current workspace in a fixed order (as opposed to Alt-Tab or Super-Tab, whose list of windows is ordered by most-recently-used first - which is good if you want recently used windows, but its clumsy to cycle through, for example, all three or four windows in the one workspace). Hold down Shift to re-order the list instead of switching between windows.
Super-PageUp and Super-PageDown maximize and minimize the active window (or restores them if it was already maximized or minimized). Super-Ctrl-PageUp and Super-Ctrl-PageDown do this to all windows on the current workspace, not just the active one.
Super-Left and Super-Right cycles through your workspaces. Hold down Shift
to also bring across the active window into the new workspace. Hold down Shift and Ctrl to bring across all windows from one workspace to the next. Unlike Metacitys Ctrl-Alt-Left and Ctrl-Alt-Right, this "loops" so that, when you get to the end of the list, you cycle back to the start.
Super-F1 moves to workspace number 1, Super-F2 moves to workspace number 2, and so on, up to Super-F12. Again, hold down Shift to bring across the active window, and both Shift and Ctrl to bring across a flock of windows, just like as described above.
Super-Insert creates a new, empty workspace. Again, hold down Shift to also
bring across the active window (if there is one) into the new workspace.
Super-Delete deletes the current workspace, if it is empty. Super-Shift-Delete will delete all empty workspaces, down to a minimum of one.
Super-Escape closes the active window. Super-Ctrl-Escape will close all windows on this workspace.
Whilst holding down Super, typing regular letters or numbers will show you only those windows whose titles match that pattern. Pressing Enter (whilst still holding down Super) will then cycle through the matches, regardless of which workspace you are on. For example, if you have a lot of windows open, and you want to get to your web browser window that is showing planet.gnome.org, then hold down Super, then type "p" "l" "a" "Enter" and then release the Super key.
Shift-Enter goes in the other direction than Enter (i.e., up and left with
Shift, versus down and right without Shift). Use the Space key to enter
multiple word fragments, such as "pla gn", to further refine your search.
Finally, when holding down Super, click on image or text representing a window or a workspace to activate it.
Building, Installing, Running:
To build (and install), the standard
./autogen.sh --prefix=/usr
make
(and optionally) sudo make install
should work. After that, just run src/superswitcher. This will listen
indefinitely for Super key presses, until you kill the process (e.g., with
Ctrl-C).
SuperSwitcher is best enjoyed if you automatically start the program
whenever you log in. To do this, from System -> Preferences -> Sessions, go to the Startup Programs tab and add superswitcher.

Edastro places ever changing astrology charts for current time on your desktop.
The package contains 8 themes:
-2 (a black and a white) standard wheel charts
-2 standard wheel charts with hourglass look effect
-2 aspect/midpoint grids
-2 dispositor hierarchy charts
All the themes made in two differend colors, for dark and light desktop (for some dark themes an alternate background included with white shadow). The themes updating every 2 minutes as the sky spins a half degree. Click on the charts to display larger version.
The themes using the unbelievably good freeware ASTROLOG made by Walter D. Pullen (www.astrolog.org). I included an astrolog executable (compiled on 32bit without graphics) in the theme, because probably few able or have time to build it. Imagemagick used to resize images, make them still readable and transparent, and view them.
###To set up a theme:
1, Find out Your location coordinates. You can use these websites:
http://www.astro.com/cgi/aq.cgi?lang=e or http://www.heavens-above.com/countries.asp
2, Extract the theme anywhere, change to that directory and start the !SETUP install script from command line and Answer the questions. Thats all...
###Playing with settings:
Check astrolog.dat config file for the calculation settings. Check the astrolog helpfile from its homepage to read about command line parameters, the 7 chart types etc.
###Possible problems, solutions:
If there is a problem try to rerun the !SETUP script.
If Astrolog executable is not working in Your system, get the source from www.astrolog.org and build a new astrolog, then copy it to the theme folder.
###Known problems:
The theme sometimes flashes on update

KAlgebra 0.5
KAlgebra is a MathML-based graphic calculator. more>>
KAlgebra is a MathML-based graphic calculator, thought to bring to the user its power by solving expressions written in MathML or calculating converted common equations to MathML.
Enhancements:
ExpressionEdit improved in many ways:
- History added
- Highlighting for MathML added
- Toggling between MathML-mode and Expression-mode enabled
- Can tell if we are writing into a function (operator or ci) so we can help the user a bit (for the moment)
- GUI a bit remade, no more MathML or expression tab, everything goes into ExpressionEdit, can change with shift+TAB
- Variable edition dialog added. Useless but looks nice :)
- divide operators fixed (divide, quotient, rem, factorof)
- approx added
- Expression to MathML compiler optimized. Some operators treated as n-ary instead of binary
- Simplification option added (F2)
- Fixed PowerPC error, now should behave fine
- Function support added
