Free suite of programmes software for linux

Program D is the most widely used free ("open source") AIML bot platform in the world. Program D project is the most feature-complete, best-tested implementation of the current AIML specification.
It supports unlimited multiple bots in a single server instance, and has an open-ended architecture for interacting via any interface imaginable. The standard release provides a J2EE web application implementation that can be deployed as a .war file. Drop-in listeners are available for IRC, ICQ/AIM, and Yahoo.
It includes an automated testing framework for testing knowledge bases, and is packaged with an AIML Test Suite that verifies that the program itself complies to the AIML specification.
Program D is known to work with many different languages / character sets.
Its component-oriented architecture allows it to be integrated into any application framework desirable. It is implemented in Java, and uses many features of the latest JDK to provide optimum code reliability. It is actively maintained and supported.
Enhancements:
- This is a highly-recommended release which introduces some interesting performance improvements, fixes a number of important bugs, and brings some major architectural improvements.
- Most notably, Program D can now be deployed as a .war file to a Web application server, and can interact with a Web client using "AJAX" technologies.
- This final release follows three release candidates which ironed out a few minor issues.

Soma is a suite of programs that let you play and schedule audio files from the Web.
Soma suite supports extra utilities using run-time loadable modules and includes a broadcasting scheduler, a tool to control it via TCP/IP, and an utility to check configuration file syntax.
Soma project started in summer 2003 to manage the digital version of an activists radio old spools.
The first release just gave just the chance to play random some audio files in a directory using an external program (at that time mpg123). In despite of that this software was never used, i kept on thinking about soma project for some weeks, until i started directly to work with a group called Reload, which was experimenting at the time a project called "eterete" and creating a place for a web radio at Pergola Tribe (a selfmanaged house in Milan).
We used, of course, a release, which was a little bit better to manage the radio-playlist and of course we implemented the software itself. From september till december soma became a software suite, configurable through file and (remote administration...). Thats thanks to the relationships and the inputs that such a community like Reload can create.
A group of passionate activists was able to make broadcastings and broadcast schedules, to find out new problems and to give implementation advices. They also suggest me the idea that soma (originally a simple play-list manager) could become a programs suite, which has a player, a software for deferred broadcasting, a more user friendly admininstration, documentation and distribution.
Some time after came somaplayer and somaadmin. The player was still very behind compared to my implementation ideas. Somadmin was straight away on line and advertised on radio.inventati.org/somadmin/
In January 2004 we showed Soma at the first italian (web and air-waves) radio meeting in Naples.The meeting was technologically and politically profitable and it was an attempt to build up a real radio-network.
Radio.inventati.org was actually the only example od direct cooperation among even very different people: individuals, improvised groups, very old and movement radios and experiences from overseas countries.
On the web site there are occasional streamings, weekly streamings, and 24hrs music flows.
The object of the technical research was a digital environment, which could let individuals or whole communities gain access to a common schedule with resum?s, repetitions, deferred programs, live broadcastings, regular broadcastings as one national and international network.
Soma could satisfy this need and could be easly managed through the web thanks to somadmin, which could update the soma admin in real time.
The developments went on. Somaplayer is now reality. The only music player which can stream directly an mp3, an ogg vorbis, a wav, a track from an audio cd or a streaming directly on an icecast server (icecast 2 or shoutcast) or just play it on a computer using sound drivers or sound daemons.
At the moment more other people work at this project, who debug the software, write docs, work at the website and make installation packages (for debian).
Enhancements:
- This release fixes three bugs related to group permissions, the 31st of months, and an error in libsoma related to buffers and protocols.

checksuite was written specifically to assist system administrators with the day-to-day tasks of monitoring a system. It is in, no way, a replacement of an actual system administrator.
I originally created these programs to help me out, because of all the excruciating long hours at work. Plus, I work on servers day-in, day-out that have system administrators
that most certainly need all the help they can get.
Enjoy these programs! Use them to your liking. These programs were an excellent project for
me to really grow my programming skills. Any feedback on these would be great.
You can run sh install.sh from the command line for the programs to be installed. These programs were intended for use on a Linux OS. However, they do work on other flavors of *nix and I plan on making more versions available as I find time to do so.
The main progams are installed into /usr/local/sbin/. There is a man page found in /usr/man/man1 and a cron file in /etc/cron.d/. As well, there is a logrotate config file in /etc/logrotate.d/ and all logs are found in /var/log/checksuite.d/.
Enhancements:
- Added 2 more false positives to checkhardware, also a disclaimer
- Fixed "Disk Usage by Content" for a specific directory in checkdisk
- Added a threshold parameter in checksyn for the amount of times an IP is found to be SYN flooding until they get blocked

GNU polyxmass is mass spectrometric software suite for (bio)-polymers.

GNU polyxmass features an integrated mass spectrometry framework where users are able to define brand new polymer chemistries (within the polyxdef module), and use these definitions in order to make simple mass calculations (within the polyxcalc module) or perform complex simulations of polymer chemistry with related mass data computations (within the polyxedit module).

The framework allows full customization of every aspect of the polymer chemistry being defined, and of the way the polymer sequences are graphically displayed. This program was formerly called "polyXmass".

3ivx is an MPEG-4 toolkit that supports MPEG-4 Video, MPEG-4 Audio and the MP4 file format. 3ivx D4 4.5 allows video and audio to be compressed to a fraction of its original size while maintaining high image quality.

c42 Backup Suite is a simple python program for maintaining a central backup in a small, but distributed environment with a central file share. Basically it is a wrapper around the tar backup facility.
Main features:
- Common, simple configuration of backup tasks.
- Use same configuration for full and incremental backups.
- Provide a network wide index of backups.
- Separates creating and compressing of backup files
- Automatically delete outdated backup files.
- The rules which defines if a backup file is outdated or not are specified in the configuration.
- Provide a configuration mechanism that is strong enough to write general backup configurations, which can be shared between different machines and users.
A task is defined backup template. At invocation of the task it is determined if a full or incremental backup should be done.
The separation of creating and compressing of backup files allow the use on a client machine with low CPU resources. For client machines with big CPU resources or a small network bandwidth the compression can be done also on the client side.
