Communications :: WAP
Internet :: WWW/HTTP :: Dynamic Content
Terminals :: Terminal Emulators/X Terminals
About: Anyterm provides a terminal emulator on a Web page using Javascript
and an Apache module. The module forks a shell and communicates with the
script using XMLHTTP on port 80, or securely using SSL. This provides you
with shell access to your machine from almost any Web browser, even when
firewalls are in the way. Experimental support for WAP browsers is
included, and the my.anyterm.org service provides access without the need
to install anything on your servers.
Changes: This release slightly simplifies installation by removing the
dependency on ROTE internal data, and makes no other changes. If you
already have a functioning Anyterm system, there is no point in upgrading.

Internet :: WWW/HTTP
Internet :: WWW/HTTP :: Dynamic Content
Internet :: WWW/HTTP :: Dynamic Content :: CGI Tools/Libraries
About: CPAINT (Cross-Platform Asynchronous INterface Toolkit) is a true
AJAX (Asynchronous JavaScript+XML) and JSRS (JavaScript Remote Scripting)
implementation that supports both PHP and ASP/VBscript. CPAINT provides
the code required to implement AJAX and JSRS on the back-end, while the
returned data is manipulated, formatted, and displayed on the front-end in
JavaScript. This allows you to build Web applications that can provide
nearly real-time feedback to the user, including nearly real-time data
updates.
Changes: Completely rewritten JavaScript code to parse AJAX XML and return
it as an object, making the data easier to access (see the end of the
documentation). The object structure in 1.3 is not compatible with the one
introduced in 1.2. If you don't use the method cpaint_parse_ajax_xml(),
there is no problem. Correct Unicode handling has been added to
cpaint_get_remote_file() (this had been added to cpaint_call() in 1.01).

by Claudio F. S. Rodrigues (http://freshmeat.net/users/claudiofsr/)
Sun, Jul 10th 2005 12:56
Multimedia :: Sound/Audio
About: gnormalize is a front end to the "normalize" tool, a ripper, an
encoder, and an audio converter. It decodes MP3, MP4 (or M4A or AAC), MPC
(or MPP or MP+), OGG, APE, or FLAC files to wave, then normalizes the wave
and re-encodes it. It can also rip audio CDs, encode audio data, convert
audio formats between MP3, MP4, MPC, OGG, APE, and FLAC, and change the
encoding properties and edit Meta Info (like title, artist, album, etc.)
of the final normalized files.
Changes: Resizing the main window is allowed. There is a new button to
change the volume level of audio CDs, and a new entry to choose the audio
CD player. If Audio::CD is used to play audio CDs, recompile and install
Audio-CD-0.04-changed.tar.gz, because this Perl module uses the new
function $info->current_track.

Internet :: WWW/HTTP :: Dynamic Content
Multimedia :: Graphics :: Presentation
About: jsgal is a dynamic Web-based gallery. However, rather than
generating the gallery pages on a server using scripts, it is implemented
in Javascript and DHTML and generates the pages in the client's browser.
No offline generation of the Web pages is required; only a list of images
has to be maintained, which allows easy updating and extending of
galleries. This allows you to host dynamic galleries on servers without
scripting support, or on local filesystems (e.g. CD-ROMs).

[039] - Plash 1.9
by mseaborn (http://freshmeat.net/users/mseaborn/)
Sun, Jul 10th 2005 12:46
Security
About: Plash (the Principle of Least Authority Shell) is a Unix shell that
lets you run Unix programs with access only to the files and directories
they need to run. In order to implement this, the filesystem is
virtualized. Each process can have its own namespace, which can contain a
subset of your files. Plash is implemented by modifying GNU libc and
replacing the system calls that use filenames. For example, open() is
changed so that it sends a message to a file server via a socket. If the
request is successful, the server sends the client a file descriptor.
Processes are run in a chroot jail under dynamically-allocated user IDs.
No kernel modifications are required. Existing Linux binaries work
unchanged.
Changes: The implementation of how file namespaces are constructed has
been changed. It's now possible to add entries to (or replace entries in)
existing directories. This does not modify the original directory, and as
usual, it can be done on a per-process basis. This functionality is
similar to union directories and similar to mount points under Linux or
Plan 9, but it's a bit more flexible. The change makes it possible to
grant read-only access to a directory while granting read-write-create
access to an object inside that directory.

[041] - PyLinda 0.5
by Andrew Wilkinson (http://freshmeat.net/users/andrew_j_w/)
Sun, Jul 10th 2005 07:49
System :: Clustering/Distributed Networks
About: Linda is a widely studied distributed computing environment,
centered around the notion of a tuple space. A tuple space is a bag (also
called a multi-set) of tuples. A tuple is an ordered, typed chunk of data.
Tuple spaces exist independently of processes in the system, and the data
placed into a tuple space also exist independently. PyLinda is a simple
implementation of a Linda system, but it also includes several of the more
recently proposed extensions to Linda in the form of multiple tuple spaces,
garbage collection, sane non-blocking primitives and bulk tuple operations.
Changes: The server was renamed to "linda_server". Using the .py extension
will no longer work. The assumption that all servers can make a direct
connection to every other server was removed. This will initially slow
things down a bit, but hopefully this can be improved. It lets you do cool
stuff like linking two seperate groups of servers over an ssh tunnel. A
simple text interface was added to the server. This needs to be added to
the documentation.

Multimedia :: Sound/Audio :: Editors
Multimedia :: Sound/Audio :: Speech
About: SndBite is a specialized audio editor designed for breaking large
recordings into smaller components with great efficiency. Its principal
intended application is in linguistic research where it is often desirable

Scientific/Engineering
Software Development :: Compilers
Software Development :: Interpreters
About: The Data Language (TDL) is an Interactive Data Language-compatible
incremental compiler. Like Matlab, it is intended for scientific data
processing and visualization. It has a FORTRAN-like syntax, supports
objects, and has powerful array operations.
Changes: The new build option as a Python module allows embedding of TDL
into Python (please see INSTALL and PYTHON.txt for details). Due to some
changes in the internal data structures, the interpreter now works much
faster (4-5 times). That is the interpreter itself; most programs spend
the vast amount of time in library subroutines. Some bugs and memory leaks
were fixed. The INTERPOLATE function and support for strided indices
(array[start:end:stride]) were added. This release compiles with GCC 4.0.

Database :: Front-Ends
Internet :: WWW/HTTP :: Dynamic Content
Internet :: WWW/HTTP :: Indexing/Search
About: TYPO3 is a Web content management system which features automatic
creation of navigational menus, headlines, and other dynamic graphical
elements, automatic conversion and scaling of images, the ability to
present different templates based on variables such as client browser or
country code, support for multiple templates on a site, and a built-in
password-protection option. Pages can be timed to be shown on a certain
date, be hidden on a certain date or just temporarily hidden. TYPO3
supports search in SQL-databases and redesigning of a website at once is
just a matter of creating a single new template.
Changes: Frontend user passwords are now case sensitive, and are rendered
as password fields. There is a new configuration option for frontend user
cookies. They can be set to a lifetime in seconds. A new option "ascii"
for config.spamProtectEmailAddresses has been added. With this option, you
won't need JavaScript anymore to reassemble the real email address. The
property page.typeNum = 0 for a page object is now set automatically by
default. If a page object has no typeNum and typeNum = 0 is not defined,
TYPO3 will automatically do that now. More than 200 bugs have been fixed.
