Using
To use Red-Piranha - open your favourite web browser and point it at http://localhost:8080/RP . Within a few seconds , you should see the Red-Piranha start screen. This will have three items of interest
- A Text box , where we enter the information to add or search
- An add information button - to tell Red-Piranha about new information
- A Search button - to carry out a search.
Before we can search , we must tell Red-Piranha we information we are interested in. This is as easy as putting the piece of information we want to add (e.g. the folder c:temp) in the search box and pressing the Add information button. A message will be displayed saying that your information is being added and will be available to search shortly. For more information , look in the logs at TOMCAT_HOMEWebappsRPlogsrp.log
Examples of things we can add to Red-Piranha are
- A folder (e.g. C:Temp). All files in both this folder and *all* its subfolders will be added.
- An individual file. This file can be text , a web page , a word document , or pdf document. For binary files (like word , which are not plain text) , Red-Piranha will scan the file for recognizable text and add that.
- A Web page. Red-Piranha will add this web page , *and* web pages it links to.
- A Google Search (e.g. http://www.google.com/search?q=some+thing?m=100). Red-Piranha will get the results of the google search , and add information on the pages it links to.
- An XML file (including RSS feeds) , either on disk or over the web.
- Favourites / Bookmarks folders - Red-Piranha will index the web pages that these favourites point to.
Adding information can take anything from a few milliseconds , depending on the amount of information being added. Once added, Red-Piranha will check on a regular basis to see if the information added has changed and re-index if required. Your information is now available to be searched.
To do a search , put the item you want to search for into the textbox and press search. Red-Piranha will show the search results on the screen. Clicking on the link beside the search results will show you the original information (as long as you have access to it).
From version 0.3 onwards , Red-Piranha can learn what search results you are interested in an improve your future searches. To give Red-Piranha feedback and help it learn what you are interested in , click on any of the links on the search results page. Red-Piranha makes a note of your choice , which is used to adjust the search results later.

Snoopy vs. the Red Baron 1.0
Snoopy vs. the Red Baron is an open-source one/two player combat game, available for Mac OS X, Linux, BeOS, QNX and Windows. more>>
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).
Fedora Linux
Fedora - Linux operating system built from open source software more>>
The goal of The Fedora Project is to work with the Linux community to build a complete, general purpose operating system exclusively from open source software. Development will be done in a public forum. The project will produce time-based releases of Fedora Core about 2-3 times a year, with a public release schedule.
The Red Hat engineering team will continue to participate in building Fedora Core and will invite and encourage more outside participation than in past releases. By using this more open process, we hope to provide an operating system more in line with the ideals of free software and more appealing to the open source community.
Major Features:
- Support for the PowerPC (PPC) architecture.
- GCC 4.0
- GNOME 2.10
- KDE 3.4 includes new accessibility features. You can manage these new features in KDS Control CenterRegional & AccessibilityAccessibility.

PHP firewall generator 2.0
The PHP Firewall Generator is a simple PHP script that generates a firewall script for iptables or ipchains based firewalls. more>>
Make sure that you have apache and PHP installed (tested with apache-1.3.19-5 and php-4.0.4 from Red Hat 7.1 but shouldwork with others).
Make sure that PHP is actually running.
Make sure that you have iptables installed. Tested with iptables-1.2.1a-1 from Red Hat 7.1
Run this as root:
make install
If you dont have make installed on your system, then you could just run:
installme
Make sure that the files in /var/www/html/phpfwgen/ are readable by the HTTP daemon user (often httpd or apache) and that the files in /var/lib/phpfwgen are readable AND writeable by this user.
The script gets copied into /var/www/html/phpfwgen/ so you should be able to access it as http:// /phpfwgen/
Make sure that the files created in /var/lib/phpfwgen make sense, particularly the "interfaces" file.
