jresolver is a Java DNS resolver library. This is a domain name resolver library written in pure java. It is what RFC1034 describes as a stub resolver, in other words it uses a single nameserver to do the hard work of resolving its queries. At the moment it only handles queries for MX records, but it can easily be extended to resolve new types of queries as needed.
Main features:
- Lightweight. The binary jar is less than 17k at the moment, and has no
- exernal dependencies besides JDK 1.4.
- Multi Threaded. It handles multiple concurrent threads sharing a single
- Resolver instance.
- Easy to use and develop. The software does one thing, and the code is quite
- readable.
- Free software. Released under the GPL 3.0 license, this software can be used,
- modified and redistributed by anyone respecting the terms of the license. If you
- need other licensing options, please contact me.
Usage:
A snippet of code says more than lots of words:
Resolver r = new Resolver("ns.voxbiblia.se");
List l = r.resolve(new MXQuery("voxbiblia.se"));
for (int i = 0; i < l.size(); i++) {
MXRecord mx = (MXRecord)l.get(i);
System.out.println("mx: " + mx.getExchange() + " p: "+ mx.getPreference());
}
If you want to build and test the software you need to unpack the files named jresolver-*-src.tar.bz2 and jresolver-*-test.tar.bz2 and use Apache Ant with the build.xml file included. You may need to update the test cases with your dns server names.
Enhancements:
- Somewhat tested, but not yet ready for a production environment.

Math::Vec is a Object-Oriented Vector Math Methods in Perl.

SYNOPSIS

use Math::Vec;
$v = Math::Vec->new(0,1,2);

or

use Math::Vec qw(NewVec);
$v = NewVec(0,1,2);
@res = $v->Cross([1,2.5,0]);
$p = NewVec(@res);
$q = $p->Dot([0,1,0]);

or

use Math::Vec qw(:terse);
$v = V(0,1,2);
$q = ($v x [1,2.5,0]) * [0,1,0];

NOTICE

This module is still somewhat incomplete. If a function does nothing, there is likely a really good reason. Please have a look at the code if you are trying to use this in a production environment.

Go-moku Apprentice project consists of a gomoku player learning from its own mistakes.
Thus, for starters it plays like crap, but it gets real good after only a few games. Its rather scary actually.
Enhancements:
- With version 0.5, the apprentice playing engine has improved somewhat.
- Making a winning move always gets a score of INT_MAX, and making a losing move always gets a score of INT_MIN.
- The improved playing engine cost me some computing power, but Ive also been playing with gprof which should negate that effect somewhat.

Quadromania project is a board game written in C with SDL.

Your task is to restore the originating board filled with red stones. The computer will pick a named amount of 3x3 tile sets and will flip the colours of the selected tiles.

This means a red tile will become green, a green one the next colour in the amount of colours, red again in the simplest case. You select the amount of colours to use and the amount of initial rotations.

In the running game click on the center point of a 3x3 tile set to exchange that selected set following the rules above. Restore the board full of red stones before you reach the limit of maximum turns.

Quadromania is a work in progress. I currently lack the time to do a decent development on it. However the current alpha release is somewhat playable and working.

md5sha1sum project provides md5sum, sha1sum, and ripemd160sum. They are intended to be drop in replacements for the tools from GNU textutils.

Since installing textutils is somewhat excessive for just those two utilities, these are meant to be the more compact and easier to install replacements. This is useful on systems such as Solaris where most of the tools from textutils are already provided by the vendor.

Usage:

Efforts were taken to make these programs as compatible as possible to their counterparts from GNU textutils. This doesnt mean that they -are- compatible but most people will not be able to notice the difference.

Heres a dump of md5sum --help
#########################
$ md5sum --help

Usage: ./md5sum [< option >] < file > [< file > [...] ]
./md5sum [< option >] --check < file >

Note: These options are mostly compatible with GNU md5sum
-s, -h, and -V are not available in GNU md5sum

-b, --binary Read files in binary mode
-c, --check < file > Check MD5 sums from
-t, --text Read files in ASCII mode

-s, --status Silent mode: Use exit code to determine verification

-h, --help Display this help message and exit
-V, --version Display program version and exit
#########################

Pretty self-explainatory. If you must have a man page for this program, the one for md5sum from GNU textutils should suit you fine. If you -MUST- have one specifically for this program, feel free to write it up and send it to me.

belt is a Perl/Tk application which offers a foldable menubar that works somewhat like the "belt" found on the Mac.

It reads a simple configuration files, uses XPMs for the buttons, and has a lot of options.

While not as advanced as the similar applications found in GNOME or KDE, it is rather lightweight and intended primarily for use with windowmanagers that dont have easy dynamic configuration options, like wm2 for example.

PEAR HTML_Template_IT is a simple template API. The Isotemplate API is somewhat tricky for a beginner although it is the best one you can build.
template::parse() [phplib template = Isotemplate] requests you to name a source and a target where the current block gets parsed into.
Source and target can be block names or even handler names. PEAR HTML_Template_IT gives you a maximum of fexibility but you always have to know what you do which is quite unusual for php skripter like me.
I noticed that I do not any control on which block gets parsed into which one. If all blocks are within one file, the script knows how they are nested and in which way you have to parse them. IT knows that inner1 is a child of block2, theres no need to tell him about this.
Main features:
- Nested blocks
- Include external file
- Custom tags format (default {mytag})
Enhancements:
- Allows dots in placeholder and block names.
- The same object can now be used for multiple templates.
- Deprecates the $callbackobject parameter in setCallbackFunction.
