by vinyvat (http://freshmeat.net/users/vinyvat/)
Sun, Aug 15th 2004 17:32
About: Midea is a robust C string API set with regex support, handling
fixed width 8 to 64 bit character sets at runtime (no recompilation is
required). Initialization routines convert multibyte encodings such as
UTF-8.
Changes: bit_array_find has been optimized, and now supports both forward
and reverse searching. bit_array_set is optimized. A mempool_free boundary
deallocation bug is fixed. Allocations within a thread now have very fast
stack behavior. mresize and mideas_resize are fixed for a very rare,
subtle bug where previous allocation was last in a freed mempool storage
unit and new allocation was in a different storage unit. With current
mempool and bit_array optimizations, multi-threaded test mode for
midea/test/memcmp.c is generally fifty percent faster than glibc.

[032] - nail 11.2
by Gunnar Ritter (http://freshmeat.net/users/gritter/)
Sun, Aug 15th 2004 16:36
Communications :: Email
Communications :: Email :: Email Clients (MUA)
Communications :: Email :: Post-Office :: IMAP
About: Nail is a mail user agent derived from Berkeley Mail 8.1. It is
intended to provide the functionality of the POSIX mailx command with
built-in support for MIME messages, IMAP (including caching and
disconnected operations), POP3, and SMTP. Nail offers its full command set
both for interactive and batch use, and is especially useful for sending
attachments from scripts or for reading mail via slow connections and on
bad terminals. In recent system environments, nail is Unicode/UTF-8
capable.
Changes: Support for threading and sorting mailboxes has been added. It is
now possible to switch to disconnected IMAP mode and back without leaving
the current mailbox. A couple of new authentication methods are available:
GSSAPI and CRAM-MD5 for IMAP, APOP for POP3, and CRAM-MD5 for SMTP AUTH.
STARTTLS is now supported for IMAP and POP3. Full names of the recipients
can now be retained when replying to a message. A handful of minor bugs
have been fixed.

[033] - nanoweb 2.2.4
by six (http://freshmeat.net/users/six0r/)
Sun, Aug 15th 2004 08:03
Internet :: WWW/HTTP :: HTTP Servers
About: Nanoweb is a modular Web server written in PHP. It is designed to
be small, secure, and extensible. It is HTTP/1.1 compliant and has decent
performance, CGI and FastCGI support, a nice configuration system,
name-based virtual hosts, server side includes, authentication, gzip
content encoding support, Apache combined format and MySQL logging, and
many advanced features.
Changes: This release is the first to support PHP5. For the moment, it
doesn't take advantage of PHP5's new features, but at least all the
compatibility problems have been fixed. Sorting of directories in mod_fb
using the chosen file order has been added. Reopening of standard input in
daemon initialization code has been fixed.

[034] - PCX Firewall 1.5 (CGI Web Frontend)
by James A. Pattie (http://freshmeat.net/users/pcxuser/)
Sun, Aug 15th 2004 16:36
System :: Networking :: Firewalls
About: PCX Firewall is an IPTables firewalling solution that uses Perl to
generate static shell scripts based upon the user's configuration
settings. This allows the firewall to startup quickly, as it does not have
to parse config files every time it starts.
Changes: New Service definitions can now be imported from the template
config file. Activating a generated firewall script now works as sudo is
called.

by individual61 (http://freshmeat.net/users/individual61/)
Sun, Aug 15th 2004 16:33
Multimedia :: Graphics
Multimedia :: Graphics :: Viewers
Scientific/Engineering
About: The PNGwriter library, which requires libpng, allows you to plot to
a 48-bit PNG file, saving it directly to disk. Plotting is as easy as
specifying the red, green, and blue values and the x, y coordinates of the
pixel. It includes functions for plotting simple geometric shapes (circle,
rect, line), plotting text (UTF-8 support for Asian languages), reading
the colour of a pixel, reading in a whole PNG file (great for image
analysis), plotting and reading in HSV colourspace, and many others that
might come in handy.
Changes: Image scaling has been added, as well as a discrete laplacian
function. All figure and text functions are now complemented by versions
that enable blended plotting. The documentation has been reorganized and
reformatted.

[036] - PostgreSQL 8.0beta (Development)
by SvR Marty (http://freshmeat.net/users/svrmarty/)
Sun, Aug 15th 2004 12:10
Database :: Database Engines/Servers
About: PostgreSQL is a robust, next-generation, Object-Relational DBMS
(ORDBMS), derived from the Berkeley Postgres database management system.
While PostgreSQL retains the powerful object-relational data model, rich
data types and easy extensibility of Postgres, it replaces the PostQuel
query language with an extended subset of SQL.
Changes: Several very large features are included in this release. The aim
is for this release to be as rock solid as possible, but at least one of
the features added involved such changes that may warrant a bit of extra
testing post-release before deploying it in production.

About: Pre Make Kit (PMK) aims to be a BSD alternative to GNU autoconf,
GNU libtool, and pkg-config. It uses data files instead of scripts to
limit the spreading of trojans in software packages. It's designed to be
easy to use for users and developers. For better portability and
efficiency, all of the components are written in C. Requirements are a
POSIX system, a C compiler, the Bourne shell, and a make tool.
Changes: New features like the ELSE command and a DEFS option to specify
additional variables to be defined. Some more maturity fixes.

Sun, Aug 15th 2004 03:34
Internet :: Name Service (DNS)
Software Development :: Libraries
About: RULI stands for Resolver User Layer Interface. It's a library built
on top of an asynchronous DNS stub resolver. RULI provides an easy-to-use
interface for querying DNS SRV resource records. The main goal is to
promote deployment of SRV-cognizant programs. RULI aims to automatically
perform all the SRV logic described by RFC 2782, and to comply with
related specifications. As a side-effect, RULI also provides a
general-purpose, event-driven, asynchronous, stub DNS resolver. There are
bindings for Perl, PHP, and Guile/Scheme. IPv6 is supported.
Changes: An extension for Guile/Scheme has been added.

by Thomas Mailund (http://freshmeat.net/users/mailund_birc/)
Sun, Aug 15th 2004 03:36
Scientific/Engineering :: Bioinformatics
About: Split-Dist calculates the number of splits (edges) that differs for
two trees. When you construct phylogenetic trees using slightly different
methods, or from slightly different input data, the trees will not
agreecompletely on the topology. When they differ, it is interesting to
know where they differ, i.e. which edges can be found in both trees and
which cannot.
Changes: This release now has an option for calculating the Robinson-
Foulds distance between trees.

by T.E.Dickey (http://freshmeat.net/users/tedickey/)
Sun, Aug 15th 2004 17:28
Desktop Environment
Terminals :: Terminal Emulators/X Terminals
About: The xterm program is the standard terminal emulator for the X
Window System. It provides DEC VT102/VT220 and Tektronix 4014 compatible
terminals for programs that can't use the window system directly. If the
underlying operating system supports terminal resizing capabilities (for
example, the SIGWINCH signal in systems derived from 4.3bsd), xterm will
use the facilities to notify programs running in the window whenever it is
resized.
Changes: This release corrects cleanup of utmp from patch #193 fixes which
would leave a zombie process on POSIX-conforming platforms. Linux and
friends do not conform (and were not affected). Also (for #195), there are
fixes for special cases of blinking text.
