Free xtra screen hacks 0.1 software for linux

Xtra Screen Hacks is a collection of graphics display modes that are meant to be run with a daemon such as XScreenSaver.

"Daisy" draws spinning flowers, and "Twinkle" draws a twinkling star field.

Compilation of Xtra Screen Hacks depends only on xlib.

Installation:

The configure script is not up and running yet, so the Makefiles and config.h are hacked versions of the ones xscreensavers configure script generated on the authors machine. If your system differs from the authors (i686 Debian GNU/Linux) then the build will probably not work for you, unless you hack the Makefiles and possibly config.h to modify the variables and defines.

If the Makefiles and config.h are ok, then simply run

$ make

to generate the binaries. They will be in the hacks directory.
If you have a copy of XScreensaver installed from the tarball, run

$ make install

If not, you will need to copy the files to their target directories by hand. Search for deluxe, deluxe.xml, and deluxe.1 (or deluxe.man, deluxe.6x.gz, etc) using locate, find, or whereis to figure out where they should go. The binaries and xml files must be in the correct directories
to work properly with xscreensaver-demo.

You will need to add entries to your .xscreensaver file by hand. Open $HOME/.xscreensaver in your favorite text editor and paste the following two lines into the "programs" section:

--snip----------------
- daisy -root n
- twinkle -root n
--snip----------------

Then run xscreensaver-demo to activate and configure the hacks.

If you dont have XScreensaver at all, just enjoy the hacks in an X window.

If make install worked for you, type

$ make uninstall

when you no longer want the new screen hacks.

dtRdr::Hack is a Perl module with self-documenting adaptive finger-wagging global vars.

SYNOPSIS

This is a global store for things that cannot otherwise be cleanly solved at the moment.

package WayOver::OnThe::Left;
use dtRdr::Hack; dtRdr::Hack->set_variableB(45);

package Bottom::Right::Corner;
use dtRdr::Hack;
my $variableB = dtRdr::Hack->get_variableB;

Basically, just a way to formalize global variable sharing.
Arrays, hashes, objects, and globs are all passed and stored directly as references.

Declarations

Variables are declared in the %declarations and %deprecated hashes in the Hack.pm code. To deprecate variables, move them rather than duplicating.

The behavior is controlled by the following constants, which should be similar to perls warnings and strict pragmas (less the lexical aspects and dynamic switchability.)

my %declared = (
some_scalar => , # scalar
some_array => [], # array
some_hash => {}, # hash
some_univ => bless({}, UNIVERSAL), # any object
some_obj => bless({}, dtRdr::Book), # class or subclass
some_sub => sub {_die ex_sub}, # declare subs like this
some_undef => undef, # run-time typing
);

TODO: you can currently set an object where you declared a hash, but STRICT should probably not allow that.

Moving variables to %deprecated allows you to denote that your code should no longer be using these.

my %deprecated = (
some_other_scalar => ,
some_other_array => [],
some_other_hash => {},
some_other_sub => sub {_die ex_sub},
);

NOTE: The sub {_die ex_sub} idiom lets you stop yourself from calling what you thought was set elsewhere.

Really Slick XScreenSavers project is a GLX port of the Really Slick Screensavers collection by Terry Welsh.

The screensavers can be installed as standalone programs or as XScreenSaver hacks.

reset-screen is a very simple Qt 4 program that displays a simple cross hatch pattern on your monitor.

Why is this useful? Well, it makes the auto-sync feature of the flat panel LCD monitors out there both faster and more accurate (well, for mine anyways).

I have to run this every other time I start KDE so I figure others may find it useful as well.

This isnt really useful for laptop users I think, but you may need it. Who knows? :)

This is a very simple program, which a very simple build system.

Show Screen Captures is an extension which enables displaying screen captures of external links on a web page.

Displays screen captures of external links on a web page. Screen shots provided by openthumbshots.org.

A screenshot, screen capture, or screen dump is an image taken by the computer to record the visible items on the monitor or another visual output device. Usually this is a digital image taken by the host operating system or software running on the computer device, but it can also be a capture made by a camera or a device intercepting the video output of the computer.

Screenshots, screen dumps, or screen captures can be used to demonstrate a program, a particular problem a user might be having or generally when computer output needs to be shown to others or archived.

Amarok Full Screen provides a full screen front end for Amarok.

The look can be changed by custom THEMES.

Gtk+ Hack is a graphical front-end for the roguelike game NetHack and its variants based on Gtk+ 2.x.

It supports playing on a local machine as well as connecting to a remote server over the internet.

Gtk+ Hack has its origins in the JNetHack project before being incorporated into SlashEM. I am in the process of unbundling Gtk+ Hack from SlashEM
