Free xmds 1.6 3 software for linux

XMDS project is a code generator that integrates equations. You write them down in human readable form in an XML file, and it goes away and writes and compiles a C++ program that integrates those equations as fast as it can possibly be done in your architecture.
xmds - the eXtensible Multi-Dimensional Simulator - is a program for solving equations - fast. It is a tool to simplify the computer modelling of various systems, and is currently being developed within the Australian Centre for Quantum-Atom Optics at the University of Queensland.
There are many situations in many areas where a system of interest can be modelled by a differential equation or equations. Such areas include: physics, mathematics, engineering, physical and theoretical chemistry, theoretical and computational biology, finance, and economics. Modelling these systems involves writing a computer program to find a solution to the equations, which is not necessarily easy to do.
This is where xmds comes in. The advantage of using xmds instead of doing the same job by means of conventional programming is the same as ordering a pizza as opposed to making one yourself. The only thing you have to learn to become an xmds user is "How to order a pizza".
There are a couple of important differences here though: normally you have to pay for the pizza, while xmds comes for free; and xmds is like a gourmet pizza outlet - one has the option of exotic things like solving stochastic equations, which the chain-brand "pizza vendors" dont offer! xmds therefore makes writing complex computer simulations simple.
Another major advantage of xmds is that it is free. The source code and documentation can be freely downloaded from the xmds web site. xmds runs on Linux, Unix (including MacOS X) and the Cygwin environment on Windows, help for installing xmds on these systems is available both from the web site and the xmds distribution.
xmds is especially useful in solving complex problems requiring solving the problem over many different random parameters. Such problems can be parallelised (run on lots of computers at the same time) and xmds does this automatically with little user input, making the solution of these problems a breeze.
Often writing a computer program to solve complex problems can be very difficult, time-consuming, and error-prone. This is where xmds excels. One merely needs to write a script in a high-level form which is easy for a person to understand, and xmds goes off and writes the low-level code for you, producing code that is better for a computer.
This makes the writing of a simulation program significantly easier, reducing the development time, and almost eliminating bugs since xmds has written the vast majority of the code for you and has used thoroughly tested code and techniques in the production of the program.
The output program that xmds writes is still about as fast as code hand-written by an expert, so one can has the best of both worlds: quick development time, and quick execution.
So, if youre trying to model a bunch of atoms bouncing around together, the diffusion of an electrolyte solution, the reaction of enzymes with a substrate, or the volatility of stock prices, then xmds is the simulation tool for you.

Newsx is an NNTP client for Unix. It connects to remote NNTP servers and receives incoming and outgoing articles
Newsx is also well suited for large spools with normal feeds, being used for pulling newsgroups from specific NNTP servers that are not distributed in the usual manner. Since newsx obeys the normal news spool configuration file and requires little or no specific configuration, the administrative burden should be minimized.
Main features:
- compatible with C News and INN local news servers
- configuration relies on standard C News and INN mechanisms for setting up newsservers and newsgroups
- setting of which newsgroups will be exchanged with which remote server based on sys or newsfeeds files, making administration easy
- logging of errors that occurred, as well as article transfer statistics
- optional log file for actual articles posted, and collection of posted articles in folders
- has been designed to be nice, so as not to overload the remote news server
- uses only standard RFC-977 functions, so should be compatible with the vast majority of news servers
- comprehensive error recovery for posting as well as for fetching; failed postings will be retried at the next opportunity, while fetching will resume at the point where it stopped
- refers to news history database to prevent fetching of articles already in the local spool. will not fetch crossposted articles more than once. does not rely on Xref, since many sites does not provide it.
- interface to popular news filters like Cleanfeed
Pulling news
News transfer via fetching to local news spools is sometimes claimed to be an inefficient way of transferring news compared to connecting newsreaders directly to the remote NNTP server.
The fact of the matter is that if set up and used correctly, exactly the opposite is the case.
A local news spool allows news transfer to occur at off-peak hours, thereby decreasing the host server load in the critical period. This will tie up less modems at peak hours, as well as decreasing the connect time since the actual transfer will run much quicker.
A fetch based system is also easier to administrate then the feeding kind, since every site decides for itself what groups it will exchange with whom. The major down-side is that article propagation times will be longer. For sites that are leafs in the news distribution tree, this is usually not very important.
Much of the problems connected with news pulling is connected to the use of the RFC-977 NEWNEWS command. Most news servers has implemented this command in an inefficient manner, which will put severe loads on the newsserver. Newsx does not use NEWNEWS.

Xvidcap is a tool that can capture movement on an X11 display. The project works in two distinct modes: It can capture to single frames (like a number of jpeg images) or it can encode the captured frames to a video on-line.
It is intended to be a standards-based alternative to tools like Lotus ScreenCam for UNIX platforms. On-line encoding is done through FFMPEG and also allows for audio grabbing on OSS compatible systems.
Main features:
- couple of bug fixes
- basic support for "minimize to tray"
- Russian and Chinese translation

Hanggame project is a hangman game written using the Allegro game library.

This is a game of hangman! It is written using the allegro game library. 2006-04-02 : I have decided that the code is so stale and difficult to work with, that I will probably not continue this. Edit: I may have a go at redoing parts of it. not promises!
