Free wrapper library software for linux

CVS Perl library is a Perl module which is a wrapper around the CVS command with an object-oriented interface.

Installation:

To install this module type the following:

perl Makefile.PL
make
make test
make install

The tcp_wrappers package allows you to monitor and filter incoming requests for the SYSTAT, FINGER, FTP, TELNET, RLOGIN, RSH, EXEC, TFTP, TALK, and other network services. It provides tiny daemon wrapper programs that can be installed without any changes to existing software or to existing configuration files. The wrappers report the name of the client host and of the requested service. The wrappers do not exchange information with the client or server applications, so it does not impose no overhead on the actual conversation between the client and server applications.
It supports both 4.3BSD-style sockets and System V.4-style TLI. Praise yourself lucky if you dont know what that means.
The package provides tiny daemon wrapper programs that can be installed without any changes to existing software or to existing configuration files. The wrappers report the name of the client host and of the requested service; the wrappers do not exchange information with the client or server applications, and impose no overhead on the actual
conversation between the client and server applications.
Optional features are: access control to restrict what systems can connect to what network daemons; client user name lookups with the RFC 931 etc. protocol; additional protection against hosts that pretend to have someone elses host name; additional protection against hosts that pretend to have someone elses host address.
The programs are very portable. Build procedures are provided for many common (and not so common) environments, and guidelines are provided in case your environment is not among them.
Requirements are that network daemons are spawned by a super server such as the inetd; a 4.3BSD-style socket programming interface and/or System V.4-style TLI programming interface; and the availability of a syslog(3) library and of a syslogd(8) daemon. The wrappers should run without modification on any system that satisfies these requirements. Workarounds have been implemented for several common bugs in systems software.
What to do if this is your first encounter with the wrapper programs: 1) read the tutorial sections for an introduction to the relevant concepts and terminology; 2) glance over the security feature sections in this document; 3) follow the installation instructions (easy or
advanced). I recommend that you first use the default security feature settings. Run the wrappers for a few days to become familiar with their logs, before doing anything drastic such as cutting off access or installing booby traps.
Enhancements:
- Improved the anti source-routing protection. The code in version 7.5 was not as strong as it could be, because I tried to be compatible with Linux. That was a mistake. Sorry for the inconvenience.
-
- The program no longer terminates case of a source-routed connection, making the IP-spoofing code more usable for long-running daemons.
-
- When syslogging DNS hostname problems, always stop after a limited number of characters.

DBIx::Wrapper library is a Perl module that serves as a wrapper around DBI, providing additional functionality and convenience methods.
Enhancements:
- This release adds convenience methods for generating CSV, XML, and bencoded strings from query results.
- The connect_from_config() method was added in version 0.23, allowing database connection parameters to be specified in a file rather than in your code.

conexus is a generalized C++ I/O library that includes support for BSD sockets, serial/TTY, and packet capture (via pcap).

conexus library utilizes sigc++ for object communication. A companion library, conexusgtk, provides a set of gtkmm widgets.

The Configuration File Library (CFL) is a collection of routines for manipulating configuration files. The project is a portable library fully written from scratch in pure ANSI C.

It is designed to offer for C programmers common routines for manipulating configuration text files.

btnSMS Library is a C library that provides an easy interface for sending SMS messages through the Beyond The Net SMS service provider.

Messages can be sent to nearly every country in the world with many different options.

color wrapper is a non-intrusive real-time ANSI color wrapper for common unix-based commands on GNU/linux. cw is designed to simulate the environment of the commands being executed, so that if a person types du, df, ping, etc. in their shell it will automatically color the output in real-time according to a definition file containing the color format desired.
color wrapper has support for wildcard match coloring, tokenized coloring, headers/footers, case scenario coloring, command line dependent definition coloring, and includes over 50 pre-made definition files.
cw works by having an augmented PATH environmental variable which has a path to the cw definition directory prepended to it, this is usually set as "export ATH=/usr/local/lib/cw:$PATH" (in bash). in this cw definition directory you will see file(s) under the very same name of the program they are designed to color. these files appear as the common executable binaries you may be used to using, but they are just text files that contain instructions for cw to use, including the path to the "real" binary.
Enhancements:
- Fixed bug that could crash cw, introduced in the previous version.

MR Tech Link Wrapper Lite is a Firefox extension that wraps long links and lines to spare you from having to scroll left and right.

Hidden preferences:

- length to wrap: link_wrapper.wrapLength, default value is "15"
- Sites to ignore: link_wrapper.ignoreList, default regex value is "google.com|mail.yahoo.com|hushmail.com|blog.myspace.com|webmail.aol.com"
- html tags to ignore: link_wrapper.ignoreTags, default regex value includes tons of tags
- Enable page character limit to improve performance on large pages: link_wrapper.charLimitEnabled, default value is false
- If enabled use this character limit: link_wrapper.charLimit, default value is 30000

If Link Wrapper doesnt appear to work for you can:

- some blog site will break with this extension just add the domain to the "Sites to ignore" list in the options
- bump the limit of character to something higher than 30000 in the options dialog
- if you experience slow downs on large pages, enabling the character limit in the options dialog.

Note: Link Wrapper will force Linkification to only highlight part of a text link, version 1.2.2 and newer of Linkification adds a "Thorough Mode" which is disabled by default, enabling it will resolve this, or you can just double-click on the unhighlighted text on the right of the text from a link to have it open properly.
