Sun, Jul 23rd 2006 09:41
System :: Operating System
About: Plan 9 was born in the same lab where Unix began. Underneath,
though, lies a new kind of system, organized around communication and
naming rather than files and processes. In Plan 9, distributed computing
is a central premise, not an evolutionary add-on. The system relies on a
uniform protocol to refer to and communicate with objects, whether they be
data or processes, and whether or not they live on the same machine or even
similar machines. A single paradigm (writing to named places) unifies all
kinds of control and interprocess signaling.
Changes: New features and bugfixes were added. SDL now compiles and runs
on Plan 9. However, SDL for Plan 9 has not been included in the operating
system in this release.

[035] - Simple Log 2.0.1
by Graham Lea (http://freshmeat.net/users/grlea/)
Sun, Jul 23rd 2006 16:47
Software Development :: Libraries
Software Development :: Libraries :: Java Libraries
Software Development :: Quality Assurance
About: Simple Log is a small library that does logging very simply and
requires you to do almost nothing (other than actually logging) to get log
output to happen. It is much simpler to use than a logging framework,
especially in terms of configuration. It doesn't attempt to solve every
logging problem in one package, but contains enough features to be a
viable alternative for most applications that need logging. This tool will
handle the logging needs of most small- to large-sized projects, but with
an almost non-existent learning curve.
Changes: This release is primarily about the addition of log rolling (by
time of day, file size, or custom strategy), the inclusion of a small but
humorous user guide, the fixing of a raft of minor bugs, and the inclusion
of a few other small features increasing flexibility.

[037] - Supybot 0.83.2
by jamessan (http://freshmeat.net/users/jamessan/)
Sun, Jul 23rd 2006 17:01
Communications :: Chat :: Internet Relay Chat
About: Supybot is a clearly-written Python IRC framework and bot, intended
to be both easily extensible and very flexible. Several modules are
included by default. Numerous plugins are already written, including
Google, Factoids, RSS, Quotes, and Relay. Plugins and their commands
achieve greater utility via command nesting, something that no other IRC
bot does. The user database is based on "capabilities" rather than obscure
flags or arbitrary numeric "userlevels", giving the bot flexibility and
fine-grained control (think ACLs vs. standard *nix permissions).
Developing your own additions to the bot is simple with the base classes
provided; writing a new command for the bot is as simple as writing a
function. Unlike many other IRC frameworks, this simplicity is achieved at
no cost to generality, which lets new programmers and old programmers alike
feel at home in the framework.
Changes: A few of the more important changes are changing the default
network driver from Twisted to Socket and fixing the crash bug with the
Karma plugin.

[044] - xlit 2.0
by Bill Poser (http://freshmeat.net/users/billposer/)
Sun, Jul 23rd 2006 17:00
Text Processing
Text Processing :: Linguistic
Text Processing :: Markup
About: Xlit converts text from one writing system into another. It allows
the user to define a transliteration simply by typing the input strings in
one window and the strings to which they are to be mapped in another.
Transliteration may be restricted to regions bounded by specified
delimiters or their complements. Xlit can also convert one type of
delimiter to another, e.g. from HZ escapes to XML. Xlit can read and write
transliteration definitions in its own format and as Yudit keymaps. It can
be run in batch mode without the GUI.
Changes: This release has been extended to allow the transliteration to be
performed either by an external command or by a plugin written in Tcl. You
can now use Xlit to apply a sed or Perl script, or a specialized
standalone transliterator such as BuckwalterToUnicode, only to regions
within specified delimiters.
