Pluto Request Action Library allows you to create a client/server application, where client sends requests, server replies with responses and optional actions. Very object oriented, and takes only minutes to get going. Same library used for both server & client side.

How does it work?

The client creates "Requests" which it sends to the server. The server will process the request, set some return variables, and can optionally add "Actions" it wants the client to execute in response. An example is a cashiers computer (the client) sends the central credit card processing server a request to "process a credit card", the server responds with the authorization code and also includes an action "give customer a message" which causes a message to appear on the cashiers computer.
Both the client and server use the same library. Both create an instance of RA_Processor.

The only difference is the server calls "ReceiveRequest" and the client creates the actual requests, and calls RA_Processors "SendRequest".
To create a request, just create a class derived from RA_Request. Add some member variables for the request and variables for the response. Your request must be derived from SerializeClass--a base class that facilitates taking an object (a request in this case), serializing the variables into a binary block, and then on the other end reconstructing the class with all the data. The framework handles everything. You just add the data members.

In the above example, the request variables would probably be the credit card information and maybe the customer ID, and the response variables would be the authorization code. RA_Request has a pure virtual function "ProcessRequest" which will be called on the server to handle the request. Both the client and the server have the same Request/Action classes. When the client side passes a request to the RequestProcessor, the framework handles serializing all the request member variables, making the socket connection to the server and sending the request to the server.

On the server, the framework will create an instance of the request class and deserialize all the data and call the "ProcessRequest" member function. That is the only function the server needs to implement. From within ProcessRequest, the server needs to set the response variables. When ProcessRequest returns, the framework will serialize the response variables, send them back to the client, update the clients original request with the response, and execution will continue. Less than 10 lines of code are required to make it work, and the project includes a sample client/server application you can extend.

Twisted Words library provides implementations of a handful of IM protocols, including IRC, MSNP8, OSCAR, TOC, and Jabber.

Twisted Words provides two separate high-level end-user features:

a multiprotocol instant messaging server
a multiprotocol instant messaging client

These are both still in the early stages of development and are not expected to work flawlessly in all configurations, however each is quite usable for a limited set of functionality. A Twisted Words server can be created with just a couple commands:

$ mktap words --irc-port 6667 --pb-port 8787 --passwd password_file --group somegroup
$ twistd -f words.tap

The Twisted Words client is named im and is usable as an IRC client, and possibly an AIM client (depending on the phase of the moon).

Low Level Functionality:

Twisted Words also includes:

Low-level protocol implementations of OSCAR (AIM and ICQ), IRC, MSN, TOC (AIM).
Jabber libraries.

Prototypes of chat server and client frameworks built on top of the protocols.

Nautilus actions is an extension for Nautilus, the gnome file manager. Nautilus-actions allow to configure program to be launch on files selected into Nautilus interface.

Each time you right-click on one or several selected files in nautilus, nautilus-actions will parse its config files to see if a program has been set for this selection. If it is the case, it will add an item in the menu that allow you to execute the program on the selected files.

This extentions is highly inspired from nautilus-sendto extentions from Roberto Majadas.

Local Lyrics is a python based amaroK-script requires amaroK 1.4!

I wrote simple wrappers for dcop-calls (using the shell-tool dcop), kdialog and amaroKs script system while writing this script. Use them if you want (its all LGPL) See the .tar.bz2s contense and: http://twoday.tuwien.ac.at/pub/stories/22759/

This lyrics-plugin simply scans a selected folder for textfiles with lyrics. This might be usefull when you have a lot of lyrics stored on your harddisc, but they are not available on lyrc.com.ar or a simmilar service.

Installation:

Open the lyrics-filesystem-x.x.amarokscript.tar.bz2 with amaroKs script managers script install option.

Usage:

Start the script with amaroKs script manager.
Select the directory in which the lyrics are stored.
The filenames of the lyrics have to be:

"artist - title.txt"
or
"title.txt"

Now amaroK will search this folder for lyrics, when there are none in its database for the current track.

Read Local Lyrics is a little Python script works as a lyrics plugin.

If to some audio file, a corresponding ".txt" file can be found in the same folder, this is taken as the lyrics of the song.
