Desktop Environment :: Theme
Desktop Environment :: Theme Resources :: Fonts
System :: Console Fonts
About: acoc is a regular-expression based colour formatter for programs
that display output on the command-line. It works as a wrapper around the
target program, executing it and capturing the stdout stream. Optionally,
stderr can be redirected to stdout, so that it, too, can be manipulated.
acoc then applies matching rules to patterns in the output and applies
colours to those matches.
Changes: A bug in the signal handling was fixed.

About: Atanks is a multi-platform scorched earth clone similar to Worms.
Annihilate the other tanks to earn money, then spend it on bigger and
better shields and weapons to wipe out the opposition. It features a wide
array of weapons, destructible landscape, weather, parachutes, teleports
and a wide range of other features.
Changes: The codebase has been completely reorganised and mostly

[009] - Boehm-Demers-Weiser Conservative Garbage Collector 6.3alpha1
(Alpha)
by Moritz Barsnick (http://freshmeat.net/users/barsnick/)
Wednesday, July 30th 2003 06:50
Software Development :: Bug Tracking
Software Development :: Libraries
About: The Boehm-Demers-Weiser conservative garbage collector can be used
as a garbage collecting replacement for C malloc or C++ new. It is also
used by a number of programming language implementations that use C as
intermediate code. Alternatively, it may be used as a leak detector for C
or C++ programs. A slightly older version of the garbage collector is also
included as part of the GNU compiler (gcc) distribution.
Changes: This release introduces some fixes for NetBSD, for AIX threads,
for PA-RISC machine builds, and for Darwin. Furthermore, it fixes
GC_pthread_create semaphores, thread table size in Win32 threadDetach, and
GC_CreateThread thread handle duplication.

[010] - BusyBox 1.0.0-pre2
by Erik Andersen (http://freshmeat.net/users/andersee/)
Wednesday, July 30th 2003 05:32
Software Development :: Embedded Systems
System :: Boot :: Init
About: BusyBox combines tiny versions of many common UNIX utilities into a
single small executable. It provides minimalist replacements for most of
the utilities you usually find in GNU fileutils, shellutils, etc. The
utilities in BusyBox generally have fewer options than their full-featured
GNU cousins; however, the options that are included provide the expected
functionality and behave very much like their GNU counterparts. BusyBox
provides a fairly complete POSIX environment for any small or embedded
system.
Changes: This release fixes the problems that have turned up in -pre1. The
'ash' shell has been synced with the Debian 'dash' shell. Lots of docs
were added. This release generally polishes things in preparation for
1.0.0.

Software Development :: Compilers
Software Development :: Interpreters
About: Slate is a prototype-based object-oriented programming language
based on Self, CLOS, and Smalltalk. Slate syntax is intended to be as
familiar as possible to a Smalltalker, rather than engaging in divergent
experiments in that respect. However, the language semantics, environment,
and run-time design are all much more powerful than in traditional
Smalltalk systems.

[019] - Distributed Hardware Evolution 1
by Miguel Garvie (http://freshmeat.net/users/MiguelGarvie/)
Wednesday, July 30th 2003 07:47
Scientific/Engineering :: Artificial Intelligence
System :: Hardware
About: This project allows the distribution of a genetic algorithm
evolving hardware designs across the Internet by setting up an island on
each clients' PC which will evolve during idle time. Individuals from
these islands will migrate between each other as they compete for
survival. All source code is available and is generalizable to any GA or
distributed processing task.
Changes: A set of Java classes for distributing CPU intensive tasks over
the Internet is provided. The client has no access to the hard disk nor
anything else except contact with the server. However, it downloads all
necessary code from the server as needed and re-downloads it when it has
been recompiled. The state of the processing task is distributed across
the server and clients, avoiding a single point of failure.

About: dxr3Player is a lightweight command line DVD player for Linux and
the DXR3 (aka Hollywood+) MPEG-2 decoder boards. It supports all major
DVD features, including menus, navigation, fast forward and backward
playback, subtitles, and camera angle changes. The player is very
conservative on memory usage and tries very hard (and mostly succeeds) to
keep video and audio in sync.
Changes: Compilation problems were fixed for those who do not have the
LIRC client library and header installed.

pass mail to the PGP or GPG programs. It also includes modules for
TLS/SSL, iconv, and SMTP.
Changes: This patch fixes a temp file leak which occurred when forwarding
with "mimeforward = YES". It also fixes a connection to the wrong port
when a name has several IP addresses and the .elm/mail.services file is
used.

Wednesday, July 30th 2003 13:52
System :: Monitoring
System :: Networking :: Monitoring
System :: Systems Administration
About: File Integrity Command & Control (FICC) helps system administrators
manage multiple Tripwire installations across their network. It maintains
MD5 hashes for the three key Tripwire files (the config file, executable,
and TW database) for every system it monitors. Using SCP, it retrieves
these key files from each system and compares the computed signature
against the signatures in the FICC signature database. If all three
signatures match the database, FICC then connects to the host via SSH and
runs Tripwire. In the event that any of the signatures do not match the
database or Tripwire detects files changes, an email is sent to the "FICC
administrator" of the system in question.

Wednesday, July 30th 2003 08:36
Software Development :: Libraries
About: im-ja aims to be a generic Japanese input module for GTK+ 2.
Currently supported input modes are Hiragana, Katakana, Half-Width
Katakana, Zenkaku, Canna, Wnn, and Kanji character recognition (based on
Kanjipad).

[030] - IMMS 0.9
by Michael Grigoriev (http://freshmeat.net/users/mgrig/)
Wednesday, July 30th 2003 22:32
Multimedia :: Sound/Audio :: Players :: MP3
About: IMMS is an intelligent playlist plug-in for XMMS that tracks your
listening patterns and adapts itself to your taste. It is incredibly
unobtrusive and easy to use as it requires no direct user interaction.
Changes: Some major internal restructuring was made. By popular demand,
all metadata is now stored in a database with files identified by both
filename and checksum, so write access to music files is no longer
required. The next song is now selected internally and jumped to directly
with no skipping. A fuzzy string comparison algorithm was used to yield
more reliable song matching.

task which provides a maximum number of points for the logged track.
Animation of the track and planning a new task are also possible. KFLog
supports a highly configurable vector map, based on DCW-data, as well as
digital terrain data, based on GTOPO30. The currently available maps cover
all of Europe. The airspace structure available for KFLog covers the whole
world, and is updated about every month.
Changes: Beside an improved context-menu in the map, the new version comes
with a dockable evaluation dialog. In addition, the cursor in the
evaluationdialog is moving during the animation of a flight, or if the
users moves the mousepointer over a flighttrack in the map. This version
also indroduces the new KFLog-Browser for an easier access to all loaded
flights, tasks, etc.

source by RFID transponders and as a carrier for communication. A program
can use the rfid library to be notified when a RFID transponder enters or
leaves the range of a RFID reader. When a RFID transponder is in range,
data can be read from its memory or written into it.
Changes: A driver was added for the M2XXH RFID reader series from Inside
Contactless. An implementation of ISO-15693-3 inventory logic was added. A
complete ISO-15693-3 implementation was added. A ISO-15693 RFID
transponder database was added to cope with RFID transponders or RFID
readers that don't implement the GET_SYSTEM_INFORMATION optional command.
Drivers are now dynamically loaded. A probe function was added to guess
communication parameters (speed etc.) with the RFID reader.
