Free web reference software for linux

Web Bench is very simple tool for benchmarking WWW or proxy servers. Uses fork() for simulating multiple clients and can use HTTP/0.9-HTTP/1.1 requests.
This benchmark is not very realistic, but it can test if your HTTPD can realy handle that many clients at once (try to run some CGIs) without taking your machine down.
Displays pages/min and bytes/sec. Can be used in more aggressive mode with -f switch.
Enhancements:
- allow building with both Gnu and BSD make

Web of Life is a life simulation game.

An isometric game done with C++ and SDL.

In this game you control some beings in an ecosystem, the goal is to make only that the beings you control survive.

Yafumato Web Messenger is a Web-based instant messenger client. Users can connect to supported instant messenger services using only a Web browser via HTTP (or HTTPS).
The Yafumato server connects to the messengers by proxy and provides the Web interface to the user, allowing instant messaging from computers where a desktop client cannot be used.
Yafumato Web Messenger is currently alpha software; as such, it has minimal error handling and is not feature complete.
Enhancements:
- The database is now an optional package; users can now login using messenger credentials rather than single sign-on using the database.
- Messenger session handling has been improved; any active messenger sessions are restored upon signin.
- Unstable messenger sessions can be disconnected and replaced using the new "Reset Messenger" link on the status page.

Web Perl module contains a set of useful routines for many webworking purposes.

This module was primarily made for UNIX/Linux-Systems. Parts of it cannot be used on other systems. E.g. the procedures for file locking demand systems that can use symlinks. If you use the modul on systems where symlinks cannot be used, fatal errors may happen.

ABSTRACT

This perl module serves users with several useful routines for many purposes, like generating webpages, processing CGI scripts, working with XML datafiles and net-connections. It also uses own variants of routines, that was invented first in the famous libraries CGI.pm and cgi-lib.pl.

INSTALLATION

If you dont have sufficient privileges to install web.pm in the Perl library directory, you can put web.pm into some convenient spot, such as your home directory, or in cgi-bin itself and prefix all Perl scripts that call it with something along the lines of the following preamble:

use lib /home/myname/perl/lib;
use web;

NLock

This routine allows to set a filelock across NFS-boundaries. The common used perl-routine flock() fails at this point, so this routine is a useable alternative for bigger file-systems. It uses the modular functions link() and unlink() to mark a file locked. In addition to this, it also gives the locked file a counter: A file that is locked for more than $web::MAX_LOCKTIME seconds will be freed by the next process that calls NLock() on this file. A calling process gets either 0 or 1 as a return value, where 1 is returned if the file-locking was successful. 0 is returned only if the process waits for more than $web::MAX_WAITLOCK seconds or if symlink() fails.

Example 1:

$filename = "data.txt";
NLock($filename);
open(f1,"$filename");
# do something
close f1;
NUnlock($filename);

Example 2:

#!/local/bin/perl5
use web;

$stat= &NLock("jump.pl");
print "Lock: stat= $statn";
$stat= &NLock("jump.pl");
print "Lock this file again: stat= $statn";
sleep 8;
$stat= &NLock("jump.pl");
print "Lock this file again: stat= $statn";
$stat= &NUnlock("jump.pl");
print "Unlock: stat= $statn";
exit;

Web Business Pro is a Web application designed for everyday business activities. The project includes support for customer lists, inventory, receipt printing, and accounting. Fully featured search functions and filters make it easy to find what you need quickly.

Web Auction is a simple auction designed for organizations or individuals who want to hold an auction.
