could set it to play 60 beats per minute for 4 bars, then automatically
speed up by 10 beats per minute, and so on.
Changes: A maximum tempo can now be set, so that as the tempo goes up, the
maximum is approached asymptotically.

fixes to handle more bad or unusual PDFs (including those with truncated
images/ASCIIHex streams, missing form objects, etc.), fixes AnnotationNote
rectangles, and handles documents containing TrueType fonts with 1/0 CMaps

Thu, Nov 24th 2005 15:12
Text Editors :: Integrated Development Environments (IDE)
About: cssed is a CSS stylesheet editor for Web developers. It lets you
write your own (XML based) CSS definition files and then insert CSS
properties and values in the stylesheet, just by clicking in a tree view.
You can also enable autocompletion in a document basis, so the CSS
properties and values are selected from pop menus in the editor to
increase speed. While static CSS values are inserted directly, complex CSS
values are dialog driven. The CSS definition file included in the release
fully supports CSS2.
Changes: This release fixes various bugs and features internal
improvements, leading to much better modularity and better integration
among cssed modules. It focuses on the management of various documents at
one time, better integration with the document list, and reordering
capabilities on opened documents by simple drag-and-drop operations. An
effect of these improvements is the new Python plugin, which lets you
create and execute Python scripts capable of interacting with the main
application.

Thu, Nov 24th 2005 16:44
Database :: API
About: LiteSQL is a C++ library that integrates C++ objects tightly to a
relational database and thus provides an object persistence layer. LiteSQL
supports SQLite3, PostgreSQL, and MySQL as backends. LiteSQL creates
tables, indexes, and sequences to database and upgrades schema when

class-based API with type checking at compile time.
Changes: Relation handling code has been improved. A configure script has
been added using autoconf and automake. A Python code generator has been
replaced with a C++ one (litesql-gen). Scons dependencies have been
removed. Debian packaging headers have been added. A Graphviz target has
been added to litesql-gen. Date, time, datetime, and boolean types have

now conforms to standards set forth in RFC 2578 and compiles cleanly with
various MIB compilers (e.g. SMICng). Timestamps are now represented as an
Octet string rather than a Counter64. All timestamps are now displayed in
network-byte order. Mechanisms for converting time from network-byte order
to little-endian form and vice versa were added. Entry_Count and
Entry_Count_Total scalars were replaced by Active_Entries and
Lifetime_Changes. Threads are now supported by the use of a newly

down.

About: Wine is an implementation of the Windows API on top of X and Unix.
It does not require Microsoft Windows, but can use native Windows DLLs if
they are available. It provides both a development toolkit for porting
Windows source code to Unix as well as a program loader, allowing many
unmodified Windows programs to run on x86-based Unixes.
Changes: A Winelib Explorer app was included. It is just a wrapper around
winefile for now. Debugger cleanups and improvements were made along with
many wininet fixes. Auto-generated API man pages were improved. A bunch of
Korean translations were included and many bugfixes were made.

About: YProlog is a pocket Prolog engine written in 100% Java. It provides
a number of fast and easy Java-Prolog interfacing functions that enables
the Prolog database to be used like an SQL-type database. It has fast
consult and retract operations, can "serialize" database contents into
text, and can easily load and store tables or contents of Java objects. It
is based on Jean Vaucher's XProlog.
Changes: This release updates and extends the manual, adds a \+ operator,
adds file/table read functions, extends the YProlog shell with read and
batch functions, and fixes output quoting bugs.

Text Processing :: General
About: Zoem is a macro/programming language. It can be used as an
all-round macro language, but has more specialized uses as well. One such
specific use is its support for creating small mark-up languages that map
to different devices. It has character filtering capabilities tailored to
this application. Two such languages come packaged with zoem; one for
creating manual pages that can be output either in troff or in HTML, the
other for creating FAQs again in either troff or HTML output. It supports
arithmetic evaluation, regular expressions, multidimensional data
storage, iteration, comprehensive IO, control operators, dictionary
stacks, system commands, and more.
Changes: Several special-case primitives have been reimplemented as
macros, and the label/reference framework is now encoded in user space.
The new register#2 primitive allows registration of macros to be run after
regular processing. The new whilst#2 primitive outputs immediately without
concatenating intermediate results. The tr interface has been sanitized,
and the multiple output stream implementation has been cleaned. Several
text transformations are supported with textmap#2, including Roman
numerals, upper and lower case, and (for recreational value) Caesar and
Vigenere encryption.
