Free to take away software for linux

Perl6::Take is a Perl module to gather/take in Perl 5.

SYNOPSIS

use Perl6::Take;

my @foo = gather {
take 5;
};

EXPORT

gather

Accepts a block. take statements inside the dynamic scope of the block are used to accumulate a list, which is gathered as the return value of the block.

take

Accumulates its argument (or list of arguments) on to the nearest gather in the dynamic scope. Arguments are evaluated in list context. The arguments may be passed on to a variable, but note that this assignment should usually be done in list context, as per usual context rules:

$answer = take 42; # 1
($answer) = take 42; # 42

Call this script from the Autostart folder, and it will update Kopetes away message for each interval (requires Kopete 0.12 or higher). The away messages are by default defined in ~/.kopete-away-msgs. Each line can contain either:
- a comment (starting with a #)
- flags message
The flags define some properties to each away message. Flags are defined only at the start of the line, beginning and ending with a %. The following flags are supported.
[0-9]*[smhd] Determines how long this message should be shown before a new one is chosen. This is the sleep(1) syntax.
a Only show this message when youre away.
c This line is a command, use its output as away message.
i Show the contents of a file, line by line. The message should contain the path to the file. Do not use ~ but use /home/$USER instead. Empty lines in the included file are skipped.
n Use the next message in the file for the next iteration.
o Only show this message when youre online.
x Dont use this message when looking for a random message. This means this line is only accessible when the former line contains the n flag.
- Show the message less than normal times
-- Show the message even more less
--- Show the message sometimes
To determine your online status, you need to have the Web Presence plugin enabled. By default, it reads the file ~/.webstatus.xml. Adapt the variable below if you store the file somewhere else. The script wont do anything when youre offline or partially away (that is, some protocols are Away, some protocols are Online).
Because the web status plugin is used, the process of retrieving the current webstatus is not really reliable. It may happen that you turn back to online when you set the status on Away in a short time. If this doesnt happen in about 10 seconds after the status change, you may consider the status change as successful.
Example ~/.kopete-away-msgs file:
========================================================================
# Sometimes, show uptime for one minute
%1mc--% uptime
# Fortune rocks, but dont pick too long messages (the length of away
# messages is limited.
%2mc% fortune -s -n 120
# just show Hello world for the default interval
Hello world
# Show a away message for 60 seconds.
%a60% Im away now.
# Ask people to say something when youre online
%o% Please message me!
# Show all contents of the Linux README line by line. Show each line for
# 3 seconds.
%3i% /usr/src/linux/README
# Tell a little story when Im away. These lines must emerge in the
# right order, so mind the n and x flags! The x flags make sure we dont
# start in the middle of the story. And, show each line for about 5
# seconds.
%na5% Goodbye, all you people,
%nax5% Theres nothing you can say
%nax5% To make me change my mind.
%ax5% Goodbye.
==================================================================
Enhancements:
- Ability to query the online/away status directly from Kopete (DCOP). This requires a patched Kopete, see the description for more details on how to proceed.
- Fortune mode: Pick a random line from a given text file.
- First check the online/away status to prevent unnecessary command calls.
- Various bugfixes

Robo Hunt is an action game where you have to run for life and plutonium.

Take all plutonium and dont be caught. The robot hunters are smart and they do not cheat.

Workrave project can assists you in the recovery and prevention of Repetitive Strain Injury (RSI).
The program frequently alerts you to take micro-pauses, rest breaks and restricts you to your daily limit.
Please refer to the feature comparison for a complete list of features, and how the program performs with respect to other programs on the market. The program runs on GNU/Linux and Microsoft Windows.
Main features:
- Distributed: The program runs distributed on one or more PCs. All connected PCs share the same timing information. When the user switches computers, he still will be asked to pause on time.
- Server data collect: All programs in a network report user data detailing break information, mouse and keyboard usage to a central server. The data stored on this server may be analysed to detect user behaviour and, for example, take proactive measures.
- Applet: The program is able to show status information in an applet that is embeddable in the desktop panel or taskbar.
Enhancements:
- Eraldo Girardi translated Workrave into Italian.
- Better support for vertical applets on Unix.
- Tao WEI translated Workrave into simplified Chinese.
- Peter Tuharsky translated Workrave into Slovak.
- Prokopis Prokopidis translated Workrave into Greek.
- The status window used to appear empty, only to be resized and filled with the timers shortly thereafter. Now it appears right away in the proper size.
- The operation mode (normal/quiet/suspended) now persists across Workrave sessions.
- Enver Altin translated Workrave into Turkish.
- Masanobu Yokota translated Workrave into Japanese.
- Ivan Dimov translated Workrave into Bulgarian.
- ORY Mate translated Workrave into Hungarian.
- Fixed KDE sound events (Phuah Yee Keat)
- Fixed Gnome sound events
- Fixed negative mouse usage when date is changed.
- Fixed text color on Gnome themes with dark backgrounds (i.e. high contrast inverse)
- Gnome applets now support transparency.
- The datadir configuration option in workrave.ini can now be a relative path: [general] datadir=.Data This will store all Workrave data in the Data directory below the Workrave root directory. (Note the double backslash)
- Daily limit now properly resets when hibernated.

TAC project is a pure Tcl version of AOL Instant Messenger (AIM).
The TAC client began its life as a small add-on program distributed with TiK, the Tcl/Tk client.
TAC has only a few of the features found in native Windows and Macintosh clients.
It is easy for users to add features to TAC using Tcl. TAC is meant to give users with only console access the ability to use AOL Instant Messenger.
Enhancements:
- Small bug fixed with away package that allows numbers in away messages
- Mobile phone package added
- New Away command: /awayfile or a:f sets the away message to the contents of the filename supplied as an argument
- Bugs fixed with shell escape function

AutoProfile is an extension to Gaim that allows users to create customized away messages and profiles using dynamic "components" that automatically update on a regular basis.
Generated text can include song names from XMMS/Winamp/iTunes, fortune quotes, computer uptime, the contents of a Web page or a text file, the output of a program, and timestamps.
AutoProfile plugin comes complete with a graphical preference system that covers a wide range of options and lets users choose exactly how they want their profiles to behave. The code is Open Source (licensed under the GPL) and designed such that it is extremely easy for users to extend the capabilities of this plugin.
Enhancements:
- This version is updated to work with Gaim 2.0.0 beta3.
- Minor bugs were fixed.

CamSketchpad is a modern recreation of Ivan Sutherlands seminal Sketchpad program. CamSketchpad is a 2D drawing / CAD program with support for geometrical constraints and the inclusion of instances referencing other drawings.
It was written as a group project for the Cambridge University computer science undergraduate course by a team of seven people: Tom Botterill, Matthew Brown, Tom Craig, Easlyn Kirupairajah, Amit Sarna, Andrew Smee and myself.
Most of my work was on the constraint satisfaction algorithm, which took perhaps 200 hours of staring at error gradient maps, and imbued me with an enormous respect for Sutherland, whose version of Sketchpad performed as well on 60s hardware as ours does on modern computers.
CamSketchpad is far from being as complete and efficient as the original Sketchpad, but it does have all the necessary components in a rudimentary form, and is finished enough to be usable. So weve decided to release it as open source under the BSD licence, so we or others are free to tinker with it and improve its algorithms and user interface.
Main features:
- Support for containing instances of other drawings in your drawings. Unlike copies, instances will change when the original drawing changes.
- Highlighting system for displaying what will be selected / snapped to / merged / created when you click.
- Very simple interface for creating new constraints - just write a function telling CamSketchpad how far away it is from satisfying the constraint. (So when the function returns 0, the constraint is entirely satisfied.)
