Free red line racing software for linux

EZ Red Skin Fix is a script-fu based on a technique by lylejk of dpreview.com that can be used to improve skin that has a reddish tint.

Beyond the Red Line project is a stand-alone total conversion for the award-winning Freespace 2 released by Volition and Interplay for the PC. It is based on the popular new tv-show Battlestar Galactica. No, not the one from the 70s.
Will I need Freespace 2 to play it?
No, Beyond the Red Line is a stand-alone conversion and will not require Freespace 2. All you need for playing will be included in the download.
Is it free?
Absolutely. The game is made by fans for the fans, no profit is being made from any part of the project. Although we could use some pizzas and coke to keep our mortal bodies running.
That about covers it... a BSG total conversion of FS2 that has just released a demo version. it plays really well and looks amazing. a must for any BSG fan.
Enhancements:
- This demo contains spoilers for the second season of BSG, so if you havent seen that season yet you should pass on this game for now.

Red-Piranha is an open source search system that can actually learn what you are looking for. It lets you go everywhere , find anything , understand everything.

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.

Command Line WRAPper is a tool that provides an easy way to build and run commands from input lines, avoiding the use of shell script. It is similar to xargs.

clwrap can make great things with the locate command, and is low resource intensive. It can also do some not-quite-fun works like multiple configure/make/make install after a fresh system installation. In practice, you have to generate a list of files/directories you want to manage, clwrap takes it in standard input and apply the command you want to apply for each files (lines) in input.

But you can do much more, in fact, its up to you to find how to use it ;).

examples:

- copying several files into one specific directory:

locate myfiles | clwrap -e cp {} mydir/

- renaming several files:

ls -1 ultra*
| clwrap -e "echo -n mv -v {}" -e "echo {} | sed s/ultra/ /"
| clwrap -e {}

- running a specific line in the shell history:

history | grep "482" | head -n 1 | sed s/ *[0-9]* *// | clwrap -v -e {}


- try all tv norms and frequency tables possible combinations with scantv:

cat norm
| clwrap -e "cat freq | clwrap -e echo scantv -n {} -f {}"
| clwrap -e {} > file 2>&1

- reformat source code, after a backup of course:

ls -1 | clwrap -e "cp {} {}.orig && flip -u {} && cat {}
| sed s/^[ t]*$//;/^$/d
| indent -kr -bad -bap -bbb -sob -i8 -l100 {} -o {}.tmp
&& mv {} tmp && mv {}.tmp {}"

Sparklines are intense, simple, wordlike graphics.
Theres a PHP library for producing sparklines, and even a sparkline web service, but I wanted something I could use to generate sparklines in both Java and JSTL (and I thought it would be a fun project). (Its also worth checking out Whys minimalist python sparklines, which encode the image data directly in the HTML as a data: URI [this library allows you to encode the images as using either data: format or javascript: format (supported by IE) in JSTL])
JSTL examples
< %@ taglib uri="http://java.sun.com/jsp/jstl/core" prefix="c" % >
< %@ taglib prefix="spark" uri="http://www.representqueens.com/taglibs/spark" % >
< c:set var="test" value="5, 35, 22, 19, 16, 10, 4, 33, 9, 12, 27, 36, 22" / >
< img src="< spark:bar name="test" color="red" / >" / >
will produce:
(I think the default size might be a little large).
The "name" attribute specifies the key to find the data (Uses JspContext.findAttribute). It expects the value to be either a List , a Number[], or a String of comma separated int values. Its the only manditory attribute.
The other attributes are width, height, spacing, color, highColor, lastColor, output. You can replace "bar" with "line" to get a linegraph (note: highColor and lastColor are currently not supported for line graphs).
The color attributes can either be a color name (a field name from java.awt.Color), or a HTML hex color (e.g. #ff0000 for red).
Enhancements:
- This release properly URL encodes parameters for server generated sparklines.
- This fixes an issue when using hex specified image colors.
- The tag parameter "background" has been added as a workaround for IE6 PNG transparency.

slsnif is a serial line sniffer. It listens to the specified serial port and logs all data coming through it. slsnif works transparently for both the device connected to the serial port and the controlling software for this device. It operates by opening a pseudo tty (pty) and linking it to the actual serial port.
slsnif operates by opening a pty and linking it to the serial port. These are following parameters / options:
1. Serial port to open (required).
2. Name of the file to direct output to (optional, defaults to stdout).
3. Desired baudrate (optional, defaults to 9600 baud).
4. Timestamp On/Off (optional, defaults to Off).
5. Print ascii values in hex On/Off (optional, defaults to Off)
6. Print number of bytes transmitted On/Off (optional, defaults to Off).
7. Optional colors for timestamp, number of bytes transmitted and normal output.
8. Lock port On/Off (optional, defaults to On).
9. Use Unix98 ptys instead of BSD ptys (optional, defaults to BSD style).
10. Second serial port to open. If specified, this port will be used instead of a pty, thus providing an ability to log data between two serial ports.
Enhancements:
- Added ability to resynchronize ports at any time by sending a SIGUSR1 signal to slsnif. Useful for debugging applications that change port parameters mid-way, after starting the transmission. One example is pppd daemon, which sets initial parameters in the chat script, and changes them later, after chat script terminates.
- Added ability to use SYSV (Unix98) ptys instead of BSD ones (see -u and --unix98 parameters). This option can also be turned on/off from rc-file.

Command Line calculator "CLC" is the calculator that can calculate direct at the Linux console.

Extract the CLCC file to /usr/bin you might need to login as root or equvalent account, to be able to access it whenever you need it.

Then just write CLCC 67+89 and the answer will be presented to you directly.

CLCC calculates from left to right with no exceptions. CLC also have some extra parameters that is sent to CLC using backslash parameters.

CLCC r2 10/3 this will round the result to 2 decimals you can use 1 to 9 if you want to round the sum of.

the r parameter can also be combined with the other parameters but it must be added first like this

CLCC r3c 10/3 - to get 10 diveded with 3 rounded down to 3 decimals.

CLCC is tested with Ubuntu 6.10 and Puppy OS 2.13 but should work with any Linux version in console mode.

The program is developed using Hotbasic for Linux and is Freeware, hope you find it useful, send and email if you have any questions.

Hotbasic is a basic language that compiles into assembler direct, no interpeter that slows down the code, just pure assembler.

So if you want assembler in Linux but doesnt want to code in nasm, HotBasic is the compiler for you.
