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 features include support for WAP
browsers and standalone operation without Apache, and the my.anyterm.org
service provides access without the need to install anything on your
servers.
Changes: Anyterm's standalone daemon can now be cross-compiled and has
been run on the Linksys NSLU2, opening the possibility of embedded
Anyterms. Some improvements were made to the handling of control
characters.

[009] - Asymptote 0.91
by John Bowman (http://freshmeat.net/users/jcbowman/)
Tue, Oct 4th 2005 00:16
Education
Multimedia :: Graphics :: Editors :: Vector-Based
Scientific/Engineering
About: Asymptote is a powerful script-based vector graphics language for
technical drawing, inspired by MetaPost but with an improved C++-like
syntax. It provides for figures the same high-quality level of typesetting
that LaTeX does for scientific text. It is a programming language as
opposed to just a graphics program, allowing it to exploit the best
features of script (command-driven) and graphical user interface (GUI)
methods. High-level graphics commands are implemented in the language
itself, allowing them to be easily tailored to specific applications.
Changes: Default function arguments are now evaluated in the scope where
the function is defined, not in the scope of the caller. The depth
handling of deferred LaTeX labels was fixed. The positioning of 3D axes
labels was improved and an example showing tick and axis label rotation
was added. An error in the man page regarding the -t option was fixed. The
write function was generalized to handle an arbitrary number of data
values. The processing of GUI files was fixed. User-specified ticks now
also work with logarithmic axes. The arguments of LeftTicks and RightTicks
were standardized.

Multimedia :: Sound/Audio :: Players
About: BMP is an audio player that tries to maintain a stable audio
playback core with a powerful, yet easy-to-use remote API using DBus,
while also providing a skinned, yet easy and understandable user interface
with the core GUI.
Changes: Code cleanups were made in all parts of the application, all
reported bugs were fixed, sanity checks for graceful failure when necesary
were introduced, and the build system was overhauled. The DBus API was
extended to allow clients to add and remove tracks from the playlists. An
ICCCM-compliant "system tray" icon was introduced using code from GTK+2
CVS HEAD. The program can now run as a daemon without requiring an X
server. An experimental ncurses-based example client was introduced.

[015] - Conary 0.62.12
by Michael K. Johnson (http://freshmeat.net/users/johnsonm/)
Tue, Oct 4th 2005 13:33
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 than 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: A bug that affected only a few packages but could invalidate
cryptographic signatures has been fixed. A bug that could lose files when
switching between flavors has been fixed. Many improvements were made to
the interface for shadowing and specifying versions in several contexts.

Communications :: Email :: Address Book
About: The Gordano Messaging Suite (GMS) is a highly flexible and reliable
suite of messaging products. Customers can choose which components meet
their needs from email, Webmail, collaboration, instant messaging,
calendaring, SMS, and list server software all of which can be
complimented by high level anti-spam, anti-virus, and archiving options.
Changes: Unlike managed and appliance-based solutions that only look for
the presence of malware within incoming messages, the system now ensures
protection at all points of access. Messages are scanned when they arrive
on the server via SMTP and also when they are retrieved using POP, IMAP,
WebMail, or Collaboration. Messages and attachments appended to the server
using IMAP, WebMail, and Collaboration are also scanned. Scanning is also
included in the included HTTP Proxy server. Support for Sender Policy
Framework (SPF) was added.

be taken out of the main loop, which makes it possible to measure the
latency without the DNS overhead. A handle leak and a 'machine readable
output' segfault were fixed. 'resolve once' no longer counts a successful
resolution as an error.

[062] - OSSP cfg 0.9.10
by Ralf S. Engelschall (http://freshmeat.net/users/rse/)
Tue, Oct 4th 2005 13:32
Software Development :: Libraries
System :: Operating System
Text Processing
About: OSSP cfg is a ISO-C library for parsing arbitrary C/C++-style
configuration files. A configuration is sequence of directives, each
directive consists of zero or more tokens, and each token can be either a
string or again a complete sequence. This means the configuration syntax
has a recursive structure and allows you to create configurations with
arbitrarily-nested sections. The configuration syntax also provides
complex single/double/balanced quoting of tokens,
hexadecimal/octal/decimal character encodings, character escaping, C/C++
and shell-style comments, etc. The library API allows importing of a

About: radlib is a C language library developed to abstract details of
interprocess communications and common Linux/Unix system facilities so
that application developers can concentrate on application solutions. It
encourages developers to use a proven paradigm of event-driven,

timers, and any I/O device that can be represented as a file descriptor,
radlib simplifies the implementation of multi-purpose processes, as well
as multi-process applications. In short, radlib is a sincere attempt to
provide real-time OS capability on a non-real-time OS.

About: Serving XML provides a pipeline language for declaratively
adapting content to XML, transforming it through a chain of XSLT
stylesheets and SAX filters, and producing a stream of output to a local
or remote destination. The accompanying console app supports reading
content as XML files, flat files, SQL queries, or SAX events, and writing
it as XML, HTML, PDF, or mail attachments. This software is especially
suitable for converting flat files to XML, with its support for variant
record types, multi-valued fields, namespaces, hierarchical grouping of
records, row-by-row validation with XML Schema, and much more. There is
also an API for embedding the software in a Java application.

command and contains a lot of useful information. This information is
made available through this package.
Changes: This release supports $Id:$ keywords without owner information,
for example, when files are changed by anonymous commits.

of serialization functions that convert the in-memory representation back
to XML. xsd features C++ standard library-based language mapping,
configurable base character type (char/wchar_t), support for all XML
Schema built-in types, custom Schema to C++ namespace mapping,
platform-independent generated code, and more.

global search and distributed indexing engine for the Web. It also
provides URL filtering with blacklist sharing among other proxy peers,
individual Web/servlet page hosting, a file sharing zone, and a database
engine.
Changes: Connection of peers over different time zones is now supported,
distribution of search indexes over all peers into a distributed hash
table was implemented, and database performance was massively enhanced,
resulting in better indexing and search speed. Crawls to target domains
are now load-balanced and robots.txt from indexing sources is obeyed. A
new YaCyNews system distributes and coordinates cooperative crawling tasks
and provides all peer owners with an information broadcast function.
