Free wrong software for linux

aPong is a Pong game written in x86 Assembly language.
As I run Linux on my own machine, I dont do a lot with intel syntax. I needed to learn this for a lab. After scouring the internet for a few hours, I came across NASM. This looked as though Id be able to just code in this, take it into the Windows computers and have it just work.
No such luck. So, thats beside the point now, but I wrote this in order to get to grips with the syntax (which turned out to be the wrong one.)
Main features:
- 2-player
The left one uses Q/A to go up/down, the second one uses P/L. Escape to quit.
- Uses SDL from assembly language
I quite like SDL. I quite dislike x86. I already know SDL. It was already a learning exercise, I wasnt going to go off learning xlib or something at the same time. This gave me a way to quickly get the code written.
- Avoids the use of frame pointers
Why do you need frame pointers if youre not going to be running it in a debugger. Its not difficult to keep track of the stack frame if youre writing it yourself. You dont need to keep moving the stack pointer inside a function, just once at the start and once at the end. Then all you need is to take offsets from esp (so long as you remember how big the frame is at the time.)
This really gets on my nerves. People dont seem to realise the amount of overhead (in terms of lost cycles) that a function call has. To say global variables are BAD is just plain wrong. Sure, it can lend itself to abuse, but thats like saying you shouldnt code in C or use UNIX because they dont hold your hand.
- The input system isnt great.
Because I was trying to keep the code size down, I went the way of using SDL_GetKeyState and SDL_PumpEvents. These mean that if the key is not actually down at the time of the PumpEvents call, it drops the keypress. (if you want to see how you should do it, look at the events system in STP

atropine is a screen-scraping library built on top of BeautifulSoup.
atropine helps programmers make assertions about document structure while getting at the data they are interested in.
atropine library was developed under Python.
Special thanks to Piet Delport for the resolver, null resolver, chain-of-resolvers ideas.
Please note, using this library is not as complicated as it sounds, it consists of only 275 lines of python.
It is better to get no data than to get the wrong data.
The key to screen-scraping the right data is to make a painful amount of assertions about document structure
Enhancements:
- Some unused imports were removed.
- A text only version of the reference was added.
- Things were generally tidied up.

Raidmonitor monitors your linux raid devices (/proc/mdstat). It can send you a mail when something goes wrong, or show the current status in a window.

Raidmonitor is built using pccts for the parser generation and gtkmm for the GUI.

JRoller provides a rollercoaster simulator.
It is intended to be mainly entertaining and not scientific.
The track and many physical variables are automatically generated from a number of fulcrums freely placeable.
The application does not make use of any 3D acceleration and should run on any decent Java-enabled browser.
Some fulcrum points define the track which is interpolated between them ("periodic cubic spline" for the experts). The fulcrums can be changed in realtime. Try it out and let me know, if something goes wrong.
Version restrictions:
- This file contains the source code and the compiled class files of jRoller. I apologize for the lack of documentation, but I think its not that complicated. If you want to improve or modify the source code, feel free to ask me any questions about the code. You need a Java compiler to build it, and the Java Runtime Environment to run it.

Sarg is a Squid Analysis Report Generator is a tool that allow you to view "where" your users are going to on the Internet.
Sarg provides many informations about Squid users activities: times, bytes, sites, etc...
Avaiable languages
English, Bulgarian-windows1251, Catalan, Czech, Dutch, German, Hungarian, Indonesian, Italian, Japanese, Latvian, Polish, Portuguese, Romanian, Russian-koi8, Russian-windows1251, Serbian, Spanish, Turkish, Ukrainian-windows1251.
Installation
If you use native squid log format, the elapsed time will be in reports (emulate_httpd_log off).
1. run ./configure
configure options: --enable-bindir=where sarg binary will be saved
default: /usr/bin
--enable-sysconfdir - where the configuration directory is
default: /usr/local/sarg
--enable-htmldir - where the www html root dir is
default: /var/www/html
--enable-mandir - where the sarg man page will be saved
default: /usr/local/man/man1
3. make
4. make install
5. Go to /usr/local/sarg (or file entered with --sysconfdir on configure)
and change sarg.conf as you need.
6. Notes about sarg:
Date/Time report:
Every minute that a request is logged your time is incremented by the smaller
of 1 minute or the total time for the requests.
Usage: sarg -h
Enhancements:
- fidex -m option to show all the used tags
- date period invalid in download reports
- wrong results when userid contain %20 character
- previous reports info wrong in index.html

Alert Manager was created to run an alert command, monitor the status of that commands output, and guarantee that if something goes wrong it wont go unnoticed.
Alert Manager has been successfully deployed in several fortune 500 companies providing guaranteed alert delivery and command execution.
It has a very flexable configuration file that allows creation of "alert chains" - chains of commands, each with their own fallback command, failure command, timeout, retry counter, and other advanced options.
It has a method for passing messages from the command line into the various commands defined in the configuration file
Main features:
- Runs any system command (defined in configuration file) and has several methods for verifying that it executed successfully.
- Logs all activity to a file.
- Has a method to prevent infinite loops of failing commands.
- Supports user definable variables in the configuration file that can be used later in that file.
- Script returns error status to the system when an error occurs and logs a detailed message.
- Verbose error messages to STDOUT if something goes wrong.
- Multiple debugging levels.
Enhancements:
- Fixed a bug in configuration file parsing that would cause alertManager to process some commented lines when it should have ignored those lines.
- Add support for passing the "message" in via STDIN. Just use a "-m stdin" and pipe some text to alertManager.
- Set SIGCHLD to IGNORE so children can exit on their own without waiting for the parent to reap them or exit.

WWW::Form is a module for handling the world-wide-web form process. The project enables generating forms, filling them from user input, verifying them, and re-displaying them in case something is wrong.
