[001] - Aewan 1.0.01
by Bruno T. C. de Oliveira (http://freshmeat.net/users/btco/)
Sat, Oct 1st 2005 02:12
About: Aewan is a curses-based program that allows for the creation and
editing of ASCII art. The user is able to move the cursor around the
screen by means of the arrow keys and "paint" characters by pressing the
corresponding keys. There are dialog boxes that allow the user to choose
foreground and background colors, as well as bold and blink attributes.
The user may also select rectangular areas of the canvas in order to move,
copy, and paste them. Aewan also supports "intelligent" horizontal and
vertical flipping (e.g., it converts "\" to "/", etc). What sets Aewan
apart from similar projects is the fact that it can work with multiple
layers and has the ability to turn transparency and visibility on and off
for each layer. A layer dialog is provided through which the user can
change the order of the layers. Thus, each layer can be edited
independently in order to generate a composite drawing. Instead of using
the layers for compositing, it is also possible to use the layers as
frames for an animation, thus enabling the user to create ASCII
animations. The file format is easy to parse, so it is easy to write a
terminal-based application that uses the Aewan files to display onscreen.
Aewan has been tested on the Linux terminal, rxvt, xterm, and the FreeBSD
console.
Changes: aecat now accepts a "comment" format that extracts metadata from
the file and a -L option, which outputs the layer count. "resize layer"
functionality was added. 'Load file' and 'Save file' now use dialog boxes
that let the user browse directories. A new aemakeflic export utility was
included. It converts aewan documents into animations that can be played
in the 'less' command or as a shell script.

Sat, Oct 1st 2005 00:39
Software Development :: Libraries :: PHP Classes
About: bibEC Process Card is a class that processes credit card payments
via one of the multiple supported payment gateways. Currently, these
include Plug and Pay, Authorize.net, ViaKlix, Paynet, and other minor
gateways. Changing between payment gateways is mostly a matter of changing
the class constructor parameter. It provides a payment gateway independent
API with functions for logging the payment activity, setting
authentication credentials, submitting requests, and retrieving the
results. Submissions are performed securely when possible using SSL or
Curl.
Changes: A new set_valuta function was added. Paynet support was fixed.

way to copy an audio CD.
Changes: Small usability changes were made. An IMAGEINFO and WAVINFO file
in the image directory were added. These files now have to exist. If you
want to burn old images simply add a textfile called IMAGEINFO in the
TOC/BIN directory (or WAVINFO in the WAV directory).

Internet :: WWW/HTTP
Software Development :: Libraries
About: Data.FormValidator's aim is to bring all the benefits of the Perl
module Data::FormValidator over to JavaScript, using the same input
profiles. They can be dumped into JavaScript objects using the Perl module
Data::JavaScript. Profiles declare the required and optional fields and any
constraints they might have. They may be shared between your backend Perl
code. Frontend JavaScript validation may be done, allowing for consistent
and thorough validation on both the backend and frontend. The results are
provided as an object, which makes it easy to handle missing and invalid
results, return error messages about which constraints failed, or process
the resulting valid data.

platforms. Its features include fully lightweight components with
transparency and effects, classes for strings, containers, XML, streams,
file handling, messaging, and event queues, vector graphics, a custom font
engine, image manipulation, OpenGL support, low-latency audio I/O using
CoreAudio, DSound and ASIO, audio buffers and nodes, MIDI file and event
manipulation, Internet streams, undo/redo support, and more.

Information Management :: Records Management
About: Magellan Metasearch is a modular meta search engine, enabling users
to monitor as many search engines as they want. It provides a complex query
language with standard boolean operators, meta-operators (to search through
pages' metadata), and proximity operators. This language enables users to
perform far more complex queries than what common search engines currently
support. It can be fed any custom sources, since its abstraction layer
manages the search results and their meta tags in a uniform way. In
conjunction with the local process scheduler (such as "cron"), Magellan
enables you to save your requests and replay them later automatically; new
results are sent through email and RSS in realtime. Magellan also provides
full anonymity through smart multi-proxy support.

and less memory-intensive).
Changes: Support for the n'th match was added to the substitude command,
as well as support for predefined character classes and only writing out a
terminating newline if the input stream contained one. The code was cleaned

Multimedia :: Sound/Audio :: Players
Multimedia :: Sound/Audio :: Players :: MP3
About: MOC (music on console) is a console audio player with a simple
ncurses interface in playmp3list style. It supports MP3 (with ID3 tag,
VBR, and Xing headers), Ogg, FLAC, WAVE, Musepack, SPeex, and some other
less popular audio formats. Playlists can be saved and loaded using .m3u
files (PLS version 2 can also be loaded). Internet streams (Shoutcast,
Icecast) are supported. It achieves gapless playback by employing an
output buffer in a separate thread and file pre-caching. The key mapping
can be fully customized. The interface can be detached from the server as
it plays in background.
Changes: The interface code was redesigned. The layout of the main window
can be now configured. Tags for files are read in a separate thread and
reading them doesn't block the interface. Tags are also cached at the
server side. A few other improvements were made.

[034] - psycopg 1.1.21 (StablePlus)
by Federico Di Gregorio (http://freshmeat.net/users/fog/)
Sat, Oct 1st 2005 00:44
Database
Software Development :: Libraries
About: psycopg is a PostgreSQL database adapter for the Python programming
language. Its main advantages are that it supports the full Python DBAPI
2.0 and it is thread safe at level 2. It was designed for heavily
multi-threaded applications that create and destroy lots of cursors and
make a conspicuous number of concurrent INSERTs or UPDATEs. The psycopg
distribution includes ZPsycopgDA, a Zope Database Adapter.
Changes: This release fixed a bug introduced by the ZPsycopgDA infinity
patch.

[035] - pwsafe 0.2.0
by N Dade (http://freshmeat.net/users/ndade/)
Sat, Oct 1st 2005 00:41
Security
About: pwsafe is a command line password database program for Unix. It is
compatible with Counterpane's Win32 Password Safe software. It can also
copy the passwords into the X selection and clipboard, but it doesn't open
a visible window. The encrypted password database uses the same format as
PasswordSafe 2.x (1.[7-9].x is also supported). The database is encrypted
with blowfish, and a single passphrase decrypts it all.
Changes: This release added compatability with PasswordSafe 2.0 databases
(including support for groups), the ability to export and merge databases,
and some small usability enhancements requested by users. Build issues on
RedHat Fedora Core 3 and 4, SUSE, and OS X Tiger were fixed.

[036] - System Garden Habitat 0.99.6
by Nigel Stuckey (http://freshmeat.net/users/Stuckey/)
Sat, Oct 1st 2005 02:12
System :: Logging
System :: Monitoring
About: Habitat is a capacity and performance management system which
captures, stores, and visualises table-based time series data. Monitor
probes exist for Linux and Solaris with Windows coming soon. It has a
command line interface, a fast GUI client for graphical visualisation, and
a simple format for extending data capture in the agent. It can access data
from its peers directly, by file sharing, or with the use of a separate
central archiving repository (harvest) to scale to installations of
significant size.
Changes: The Solaris I/O probe now collects partition information
(although its net probe isn't yet included). The makefile was changed to
improve static and dynamic linking, which is especially important for
Solaris, which statically links Gtk+ into ghabitat and curl into libiiab
(one of habitat's own shared libraries). Automatic configuration is
supported when building on Fedora, Mandrake, and Solaris.

has been largely rewritten. The user interface was improved with window
geometry management, a redesigned bottom bar, and the addition of close
buttons. The installation script has been modified. An uninstall script
and a l10n howto have been added.
