Free suffix software for linux

Suffix tree implementation library is a C library, an implementation of the suffix trees algorithm to store/retrieve key/data pairs.
The main advantages are a linear indexing time, little memory usage, and very fast retrieving.
It has been developped on FreeBSD/gcc but should be fairly portable.
The source code "testsfx.c" show an example of how to use the library both for inserting, retrieving, and deleting data. There arent many functions and comments should be enough to give you an idea of how to use the library. (read the header of the source file)
You should edit sfxdisk.h to suit your needs: you can change the alphabet size and the offset type. It should be OK to use "long long" 64 bits ints instead of long, in fact I tested it succesfully but havent gone to the point of filling more than 2 GB of data (needless to say you need a 64 bits filesystem).
Two "tools" come with the library (new with version 1.2): dumpsfx and loadsfx. dumpsfx is used to dump the database: dumpsfx [-s separator] if you want to output the result as readable text or dumpsfx < file.sfx > -h to output it for reloading with loadsfx.
dumpsfx outputs on stdout and loadsfx reads from stdin. loadsfx < suffix tree file to create > < dumped_file
Enhancements:
- removed an useless offset incrementation in STwritenode

FuLFS is a simple hack to store and read very large files on/from a filesystem with small maximum file size. The primary purpose was putting DVD-size images on FAT32 and use it transparently. The files are stored in the form name.aa, name.ab, ...
Usage:
./fulfs physical-storage-dir virtual-dir [ chunk size ]
where the chunk size can be completed with a k/K/m/M/g/G suffix, meaning a
decimal or binary (upper case) factor of the particular unit.
Installation:
Install pkgconfig, install fuse library (version >>2.5.0, from http://fuse.sourceforge.net or a modern Linux distribution, including the development files (eg. libfuse-dev on Debian).
Run "make".
Enhancements:
- The file descriptor caching was fixed.
- Chunk set control was optimized.
- The unlink operation will return more reliable error codes now.
- The license was converted to the original BSD style.

SWISH++ is a Unix-based file indexing and searching engine (typically used to index and search files on web sites).
SWISH++ project was based on SWISH-E although SWISH++ is a complete rewrite. SWISH++ was developed to circumvent my difficulties with using the SWISH-E package.
SWISH++ has been ported to compile and run under Microsoft Windows by Robert J. Lebowitz and Christoph Conrad.
Main features:
- Lightning-fast indexing
- Indexes META elements, ALT, and other attributes
- Selectively not index text within HTML or XHTML elements
- Intelligently index mail and news files
- Index Unix manual page files
- Index LaTeX and RTF documents
- Index ID3 tags of MP3 files
- Index non-text files such as Microsoft Office documents
- Apply filters to files on-the-fly prior to indexing
- Modular indexing architecture
- Index new files incrementally
- Index remote web sites
- Handles large collections of files
- Lightning-fast searching
- Optional word stemming (suffix stripping)
- Ability to run as a search server
- Easy-to-parse results format
- XML results format
- Generously commented source code
Enhancements:
- Indexing of some ID3 tags was broken.

Samba::LDAP::Config is a Perl module to config file related tasks for Samba::LDAP.

SYNOPSIS

use Samba::LDAP::Config;

my $config = Samba::LDAP::Config->new()
or die "Cant create objectn";

# Returns where smbldap.conf, smbldap_bind.conf and
# smb.conf are located
my $smbldap_conf = $config->find_smbldap();
my $smbldap_bind_conf = $config->find_smbldap_bind();
my $samba_conf = $config->find_samba();

Various methods to find where the related Samba configuration files are saved, read them in and write them out etc. Subclasses Config::Tiny.

INTERFACE

new

Create a new Samba::LDAP::Config object

find_smbldap

Searches in usual places for smbldap.conf and returns location found.

my $smbldap_conf = $config->find_smbldap();

Returns the smbldap.conf in the scripts, if nothing found.

find_smbldap_bind

Searches in usual places for smbldap_bind.conf and returns location found.

my $smbldap_bind_conf = $config->find_smbldap_bind();

Returns the smbldap_bind.conf in the scripts, if nothing found.

find_samba

Searches in usual places for smb.conf and returns location found.

my $smb_conf = $config->find_samba();

Returns the smb.conf in the scripts, if nothing found.

read_conf

Wrapper to provide an instant error message as returned by the native Config::Tiny read method

my $conf = $config->read_conf( $filename );

read_string

Overrides Config::Tinys read_string to exclude the " " marks found in smbldap.conf and smbldap_bind.conf and remove section handling, as we dont have any [sections] in either of these files.

Also substitutes the suffix hash ( ${suffix} ) with its value.
Need to fix the smb.conf reading. Will use File::Samba or Config::Auto for it instead.

Autodist provides a source distribution management system.
Autodist is a source distribution management system that allows powerful mechanisms to define what is included in and excluded from a distribution and what license is used.
It is especially targeted at large software projects that create multiple distributions from a source tree.
Autodist supports distribution management in directory, file, and file content level, and automatic relicensing of a distribution.
The Autodist creates Makefile.am files from Makefile.ad files and configure.ac file from one or more configure.ad files. Any other file ending with .ad suffix will also be processed. The processed file will have the .ad suffix removed (see Preparing source tree). Autodist also creates and packages the distribution using common GNU distribution creation process, specificly `make dist.
Autodist, however, controls this process and during packaging phase the Autodist processes all files in the distribution (other than *.ad files, which has already been processed earlier by Autodist). The resulted package is a processed source distribution package, processed according to the rules specified in the distribution file(s) (see Creating distribution).
Any file in the source tree may use distdefs (distribution defines (see Distdefines)) which are defined in the distributions. When distribution is packaged only the files, directories and file content that is either outside of any distdef, or inside the defined distdefs will be included in the distribution. Any other file, directory or content in the file will be removed.
It is guaranteed, if a file, a directory or a piece of file content is not inside a defined distdef it will not be delivered to the distribution.
Any file, Makefile.am, configure.ac, or source file processed with Autodist is always compliant with the tools needed to process them. All files can also be processed with the corresponding tools even before processing them with Autodist. This makes it possible, for example, to compile sources before they have been processed, and undefined lines are removed. The distdefs are respected in source files by the preprocessor.
Autodist is not a binary packaging system. It is specificly used to create source distributions. A binary packaging system, however can be hooked to the distribution creation process, if needed.
Enhancements:
- The prereq directive was added.
- Support for extra user parameters for autodist hook scripts was added.

makeself.sh is a small shell script that generates a self-extractable tar.gz archive from a directory. The resulting file appears as a shell script (many of those have a .run suffix), and can be launched as is.
The archive will then uncompress itself to a temporary directory and an optional arbitrary command will be executed (for example an installation script). This is pretty similar to archives generated with WinZip Self-Extractor in the Windows world. Makeself archives also include checksums for integrity self-validation (CRC and/or MD5 checksums).
The makeself.sh script itself is used only to create the archives from a directory of files. The resultant archive is actually a compressed (using gzip, bzip2, or compress) TAR archive, with a small shell script stub at the beginning.
This small stub performs all the steps of extracting the files, running the embedded command, and removing the temporary files when its all over. All what the user has to do to install the software contained in such an archive is to "run" the archive, i.e sh nice-software.run.
I recommend using the "run" (which was introduced by some Makeself archives released by Loki Software) or "sh" suffix for such archives not to confuse the users, since they know its actually shell scripts (with quite a lot of binary data attached to it though!).
Usage
The syntax of makeself is the following:
makeself.sh [args] archive_dir file_name label startup_script [script_args]
args are optional options for Makeself. The available ones are :
--version : Prints the version number on stdout, then exits immediately
--gzip : Use gzip for compression (is the default on platforms on which gzip is commonly available, like Linux)
--bzip2 : Use bzip2 instead of gzip for better compression. The bzip2 command must be available in the command path. I recommend that you set the prefix to something like .bz2.run for the archive, so that potential users know that theyll need bzip2 to extract it.
--compress : Use the UNIX "compress" command to compress the data. This should be the default on all platforms that dont have gzip available.
--nocomp : Do not use any compression for the archive, which will then be an uncompressed TAR.
--notemp : The generated archive will not extract the files to a temporary directory, but in a new directory created in the current directory. This is better to distribute software packages that may extract and compile by themselves (i.e. launch the compilation through the embedded script).
--current : Files will be extracted to the current directory, instead of in a subdirectory. This option implies --notemp above.
--follow : Follow the symbolic links inside of the archive directory, i.e. store the files that are being pointed to instead of the links themselves.
--append (new in 2.1.x): Append data to an existing archive, instead of creating a new one. In this mode, the settings from the original archive are reused (compression type, label, embedded script), and thus dont need to be specified again on the command line.
--header : Makeself 2.0 uses a separate file to store the header stub, called "makeself-header.sh". By default, it is assumed that it is stored in the same location as makeself.sh. This option can be used to specify its actual location if it is stored someplace else.
--copy : Upon extraction, the archive will first extract itself to a temporary directory. The main application of this is to allow self-contained installers stored in a Makeself archive on a CD, when the installer program will later need to unmount the CD and allow a new one to be inserted. This prevents "Filesystem busy" errors for installers that span multiple CDs.
--nox11 : Disable the automatic spawning of a new terminal in X11.
--nowait : When executed from a new X11 terminal, disable the user prompt at the end of the script execution.
--nomd5 and --nocrc : Disable the creation of a MD5 / CRC checksum for the archive. This speeds up the extraction process if integrity checking is not necessary.
--lsm file : Provide and LSM file to makeself, that will be embedded in the generated archive. LSM files are describing a software package in a way that is easily parseable. The LSM entry can then be later retrieved using the -lsm argument to the archive. An exemple of a LSM file is provided with Makeself.
archive_dir is the name of the directory that contains the files to be archived
file_name is the name of the archive to be created
label is an arbitrary text string describing the package. It will be displayed while extracting the files.
startup_script is the command to be executed from within the directory of extracted files. Thus, if you wish to execute a program contain in this directory, you must prefix your command with "./". For example, ./program will be fine. The script_args are additionnal arguments for this command.
Enhancements:
- Fixed --info output.
- Generate random directory name when extracting files to . to avoid problems.
- Better handling of errors with wrong permissions for the directory containing the files.
- Avoid some race conditions, Unset the $CDPATH variable to avoid problems if it is set. Better handling of dot files in the archive directory.

GNU Trueprint is a project which allows you to print source code.
Trueprint is a program for printing source code in a variety of languages (C is the best supported) and other text files to postscript printers.
It supports a wealth of options to support printing source code, such as diff-marking, line numbers, indentation levels, file and function indices, and many others.
The simplest way to compile this package is:
1. `cd to the directory containing the packages source code and type `./configure to configure the package for your system. If youre using `csh on an old version of System V, you might need to type `sh ./configure instead to prevent `csh from trying to execute `configure itself.
Running `configure takes awhile. While running, it prints some messages telling which features it is checking for.
2. Type `make to compile the package.
3. Optionally, type `make check to run any self-tests that come with the package.
4. Type `make install to install the programs and any data files and documentation.
Enhancements:
- Trueprint now uses autoconf and automake (Paul Smith, and the book GNU Autoconf, Automake and Libtool by Gary V. Vaughan et al, published by New Riders).
- Mention of trueprint.uu removed from README (Othmar Pasteka).
- Suffix .pike added for pike programs (Othmar Pasteka).
- Added include of sys/types.h before sys/stat.h to support FreeBSD (Dmitry Sivachenko).
- README.mswin removed (John Morey).
- If there isnt an lp or lpr command on your system when you run configure, trueprint will now be built to send postscript output to stdout by default (Othmar Pasteka).
- Choice options like --landscape and --option were broken due to a serious bug in options.c (Paul Smith).
- Added Canon LBP 3260 (Bjorn Wingman).
- Added HP Laserjet 1100 (Peter Green).
- Fix for handling arithmetic<<less
