[001] - 3rd Edition Dungeons & Dragons Character Generator 2.1
by Slicer (http://freshmeat.net/users/slicer/)
Thu, Aug 12th 2004 20:57
Games/Entertainment :: Role-Playing
About: 3rd Edition Dungeons and Dragons Character Generator is an
HTML/JavaScript Web page that allows the user to quickly and easily create
new Dungeons and Dragons characters. The characters can be of any of the
eleven classes, any of the playable races, and may start at any level from
1 to 220. Generation requires some simple input, after which the character
is displayed on a basic character sheet. It allows you to select your
starting stats, add ability points, and pick skills, equipment, feats, and
spells. It runs on most operating systems with most modern browsers.
Changes: This release focuses on masterwork items. You may now buy
masterwork weapons, armor, arrows and bolts for your character.

About: 4tH is a Forth compiler with a little difference. Instead of the
standard Forth engine it features a conventional compiler. 4tH is a very
small compiler that can create bytecode, C-embeddable bytecode, standalone
executables, but also works fine as a scripting language. It supports over
85% of the ANS Forth CORE wordset and features conditional compilation,
pipes, files, assertions, forward declarations, recursion, include files,
etc. It comes with an RPN calculator, line editor, compiler, decompiler,
C-source generators, and a virtual machine.
Changes: A security vulnerability in the main program was fixed. The
/HOLD constant was added. COMPARE is now fully ANS-Forth compatible. The
2R@ and UNLOOP words were added to the library, and a 'fractals.4th'
demonstration program was added.

Internet :: Proxy Servers
Internet :: WWW/HTTP
About: BFilter is a smart filtering HTTP proxy. It removes ads, webbugs,

using a set of heuristic rules. BFilter has a built-in JavaScript engine
which detects popups and js-generated ads.
Changes: Several bugs have been fixed, including the build problem with
gcc 3.4, damaging a script when inlining it, and the failure to detect
onmouseover popups. Some minor improvements have also been made.

Scientific/Engineering
Scientific/Engineering :: Bioinformatics
Scientific/Engineering :: Chemistry
About: The Bioinformatics Benchmark System is an attempt to build a
reasonable testing framework, tests, and data, to enable end users and
vendors to probe the performance of their systems. It is not trying to be
the last word in informatics benchmarking, as there are simply too many
codes, tests, data sets, and databases. The goal is to create a core of
tests that all may download and use to probe specific elements of system
performance. The end goal is to enable a pluggable set of tests, including
the core tests, so that performance data may be gathered.

PPP support (for dialup connections). The browser is linked with OpenSSL.
The scripts are all accessible by a setup script and have a nice dialog
frontend.
Changes: Blueflops can now boot from USB floppies (with a UHCI host
controller). The scripts were merged into a big one (/sbin/BF) to save
some space. Also, the configuration saving system was rewritten to use
only a file on the floppy.

[020] - Conary 0.6.6
by Michael K. Johnson (http://freshmeat.net/users/johnsonm/)
Thu, Aug 12th 2004 18:34
Software Development :: Version Control
System :: Archiving :: Packaging
System :: Installation/Setup
About: Conary is a distributed software management system for Linux
distributions. It replaces traditional package management solutions (such
as RPM and dpkg) with one designed to enable loose collaboration across
the Internet. It enables sets of distributed and loosely connected
repositories to define the components which are installed on a Linux
system. Rather then having a full distribution come from a single vendor,
it allows administrators and developers to branch a distribution, keeping
the pieces which fit their environment while grabbing components from
other repositories across the Internet.
Changes: This release features a repository protocol update, changeset
format update, the ability to resume halted local builds, the ability to
easily package build-time tests to run at install time to qualify
new/changed environments, better handling of packaged .pyc/.pyo files,
better shared library handling, improved inline documentation,
optimizations for both space and time, and numerous bugfixes.

[021] - confstore 0.5.4
by mastodon (http://freshmeat.net/users/mastodon/)
Thu, Aug 12th 2004 18:35
System :: Archiving :: Backup
About: Confstore is a configuration backup utility. It scans a system for
all recognised configuration files and then stores them in a simple
archive. It knows what to scan for by reading a definitions file.
Confstore can also restore configuration from backup archives it has
previously created.
Changes: This version adds support for environment variables, such as
$HOME, in definition files thus greatly expanding what definition files
can cover. Also, a bug in the wildcard system that wouldn't allow you to
restore files that had been originally found using a wildcard entry has
been fixed. When restoring, 'v' now shows both files so you can compare
before you restore. All module options have been moved to cs.conf as
well, meaning that you no longer have to edit the module scripts.
Finally, a few more configsets have been added to the default
locations.def plus a few that others have submitted.

by Antonio Diaz Diaz (http://freshmeat.net/users/ant_diaz/)
Thu, Aug 12th 2004 12:56
System :: Recovery Tools
About: dd_rescue copies data from one file or block device (hard disk,
cdrom, etc) to another, trying hard to rescue data in case of read
errors. It does not truncate the output file if not asked to. So every
time you run it on the same output file, it tries to fill in the gaps.
The algorithmn will: read the non-damaged part of the disk, skipping the
damaged areas; try to read the damaged areas, splitting them into smaller
pieces and reading the non- damaged pieces, until the hardware block size
is reached; try to read the damaged hardware blocks until the specified
number of retries is reached, or until interrupted by the user.

Thu, Aug 12th 2004 20:59
Internet :: WWW/HTTP :: Dynamic Content
Software Development :: Libraries :: Application Frameworks
Software Development :: Libraries :: Java Libraries
About: Echo is a framework for developing object-oriented, event-driven
Web applications in Java. Echo removes the developer from having to think
in terms of "page-based" applications and enables him/her to develop
applications using the conventional object-oriented and event-driven
paradigm for user interface development. Knowledge of HTML, HTTP, and
JavaScript is not required. Tutorials, white papers, and full API
documentation are available.
Changes: Minor performance and memory footprint improvements were made to
the HTML rendering architecture. An issue was fixed where buttons were not
focusable via the TAB key. The EchoInstance is now retrievable via the
static EchoInstance.getEchoInstance() method during the execution of the
pre-destruction life cycle method EchoInstance.doExit(). A bug encountered
when replacing a cell in a Grid at a specific position was fixed.

Communications :: Email
Communications :: Email :: Email Clients (MUA)
Communications :: Email :: Filters
About: getmail is intended as a simple, secure, and reliable replacement
for fetchmail. It retrieves email (either all messages, or only unread
messages) from one or more POP3, SPDS, or IMAP4 servers (with or without
SSL) for one or more email accounts, and reliably delivers into
qmail-style Maildirs, mboxrd files, or through external MDAs (command
deliveries) specified on a per-account basis. getmail also has excellent
support for domain (multidrop) mailboxes, including delivering messages to
different users or destinations based on the envelope recipient address.
Changes: Cosmetic fix to the output: whitespace is added after the
timestamp when not retrieving a message. MANIFEST.in is included in the
source distribution to assist users in building "built distributions"
from it. A few output messages' levels have changed to make verbose mode
slightly less verbose, and a -- debug switch has been added to get "more
verbose" behaviour.

by olicha (http://freshmeat.net/users/olicha/)
Thu, Aug 12th 2004 12:38
Desktop Environment
About: Metisse is an experimental X desktop with some OpenGL capacity. It
consists of a virtual X server called Xwnc, a special version of FVWM, and
a FVWM module FvwmAmetista. Xwnc is a mix of Xvnc and XDarwin. It draws
nothing on your screen; everything is drawn into pixmaps. Similarly to
Xvnc, but with a different protocol, Xwnc can send these pixmaps (and
other information) to a "viewer". FvwmAmetista is such a viewer; it uses
OpenGL for rendering the X desktop into a window of a "regular" 3D
accelerated X server.
Changes: A software cursor was implemented for Mac OSX. The experimental
fvwm-insitu focus/stacking policy styles were enabled. Window resizing
was improved. A crash caused by fvwm icons was fixed. Some configuration
for fvwm icons was added. The grey lines around the windows were removed.

[051] - monagent 1.5
by Mario Bucsics (http://freshmeat.net/users/MarioBucsics/)
Thu, Aug 12th 2004 03:23
System :: Monitoring
About: monagent is a collection of tools which allows you to monitor
anything by writing scripts in any language you prefer. As long as you
supply the correct output format, the data will be monitored, and you will
get an email or SMS message when a certain threshold exceeds the limits
that you have defined. It consists of a Unix daemon, a monitoring viewer,
and an admin tool for setting thresholds. The viewer and admintool are
written in VB6. An Oracle Database is used for the monitoring schema, and
an Oracle Client installation is needed on every host you want to monitor.
Changes: Data is now read from shared memory and only once from the
database if the agent is started for the very first time. Database
inserts and updates are done only if possible, so the agent continues
monitoring even if no database connection is present (warnings and
alerts are written to /var/adm/monagent.log). Users must now "apply"
changes made using admintool. It is now possible to use either MySQL or
PostgreSQL. An intermediate version is now available for users that do
not have "proc" installed on their machine.

[062] - Performance Co-Pilot 2.4.0-1
by Mark Goodwin (http://freshmeat.net/users/markgw/)
Thu, Aug 12th 2004 20:58
Internet :: Log Analysis
Internet :: WWW/HTTP :: Site Management
Software Development :: Libraries
About: Performance Co-Pilot (PCP) is a framework and set of services for
supporting system-level performance monitoring and performance management.
It provides a unifying abstraction for all of the interesting performance
data in a system, and allows client applications to easily retrieve and
process any subset of that data using a single API. A client-server
architecture allows multiple clients to monitor the same host, and a
single client to monitor multiple hosts. Archive logging and replay are
integrated so that a client application can use the same API to process
real-time data from a host or historical data from an archive.
Changes: This version features support for 2.6 kernels, many bugfixes,
better FHS compliance, and portability enhancements. Major new features
include new platform agents for Windows (Win98 or later with either
Cygwin or Interix/SFU), AIX 5.2, Darwin (Mac OS X 10.3), and
improvements to the Solaris agent for SunOS 5.8.

Text Editors
About: Phase is a very small text editor written in PHP. It uses HTML for
the interface, and is easily customized. It can access any directory that
your platform allows. Phase was designed for localhost access in mind (on
your PC running Apache with PHP), and thus it has no security built-in.
Changes: This version slightly improves the directory handling. File
permissions have been fixed for Linux.
