[009] - CellWriter 1.2.3
by Risujin (http://freshmeat.net/users/Risujin/)
Mon, Oct 1st 2007 00:42
Adaptive Technologies
Scientific/Engineering :: Artificial Intelligence
Scientific/Engineering :: Image Recognition
About: CellWriter is a grid-entry natural handwriting input panel. As you
write characters into the cells, your writing is instantly recognized at
the character level. When you press 'Enter' on the panel, the input you
entered is sent to the currently focused application as if typed on the
keyboard. Writer-dependent, CellWriter learns your handwriting for
reliable recognition. Correcting preprocessor algorithms account for
digitizer noise, differing stroke order, direction, and number of strokes.
Unicode support enables you to write in any language.
Changes: Bugfixes were made for PDAs and the fake key event generation
system.

[012] - Cibyl 12
by Simon Kagstrom (http://freshmeat.net/users/sys2066/)
Mon, Oct 1st 2007 10:29
Software Development :: Code Generators
Software Development :: Compilers
Software Development :: Libraries
About: Cibyl is a programming environment that allows compiled C programs
to execute on J2ME-capable phones. Cibyl uses GCC to compile the C
programs to MIPS binaries, and these are then recompiled into Java
bytecode. The programs are not parsed during runtime, and Cibyl is
therefore relatively well-performing. With Cibyl, games written in C can
be ported to J2ME without switching language.
Changes: Large performance improvements, bugfixes for C++ code generation
and code optimization, tool usage improvements, and a new framework for
ANSI C-style file operations.

[018] - cx_Logging 1.4
by Anthony Tuininga (http://freshmeat.net/users/atuining/)
Mon, Oct 1st 2007 21:39
Software Development :: Libraries :: Python Modules
System :: Logging
About: cx_Logging is a Python extension module that supports logging in a
similar fashion to that supported by the logging module available in
Python 2.3 and up. It also supports a C interface that allows applications
to perform logging independently of Python.
Changes: This release ensures that log files opened on Windows are opened
in such a way that they are not inherited by subprocesses, thus permitting
log rotation to occur in that situation. It also eases support for using
the C interface in other projects and cleans up the setup configuration
script to simplify further maintenance.

[020] - DBIx::Perlish 0.28
by Grrrr (http://freshmeat.net/users/Grrrr/)
Mon, Oct 1st 2007 02:06
About: The DBIx::Perlish module provides the ability to work with
databases supported by the DBI module using Perl's own syntax for the four
most common operations: SELECT, UPDATE, DELETE, and INSERT. By using
DBIx::Perlish, you can write most of your database queries using a
domain-specific language with Perl syntax. However, the module is not
intended to replace all use of SQL in your program. The DBIx::Perlish
module quite intentionally neither implements nor cares about database
administration tasks like schema design and management.
Changes: Syntax and support for inline views were added.

Communications :: Email
Communications :: Email :: Filters
Communications :: Email :: Post-Office :: IMAP
About: fdm (fetch and deliver mail) is a simple, lightweight replacement
for mail fetching, filtering, and delivery programs such as fetchmail and
procmail. It can fetch using POP3, POP3S, IMAP, IMAPS, or stdin, and
deliver to a pipe, file, maildir, mbox, or SMTP server, based on a set of
regexps. It can be used for both single user and multiuser setups, and is
designed with privilege separation when running as root.
Changes: Shell metacharacters are stripped from string tags by default to
limit problems with exec/pipe. POP3 may now be fetched over a pipe, like
IMAP. fdm can now fetch only new or only old mail for POP3/IMAP. Support
for APOP and CRAM-MD5. Some configuration file syntax changes and
bugfixes.

[060] - PyEphem 3.7.2.1
by brandonrhodes (http://freshmeat.net/users/brandonrhodes/)
Mon, Oct 1st 2007 21:53
Scientific/Engineering :: Astronomy
Software Development :: Libraries :: Python Modules
About: PyEphem provides scientific-grade astronomical computations for the
Python programming language. Given an arbitrary date and location on Earth,
it can compute the positions of the sun, moon, and planets as well as any
asteroids, comets, or earth satellites whose orbital elements the user can
provide. There are additional functions for computing the angular
separation between two objects in the sky, determining the constellation
in which an object lies, and finding the times at which an object rises,
transits, and sets on a particular day.
Changes: The module can now compute solstices and equinoxes, as well as
the successive risings, transits, and settings of a astronomical object
for any observer on earth. The rather confusing rules that existed
previously about what kind of coordinates are returned from a computation
have been eliminated, in favor of each computation returning separately
the astrometric, apparent geocentric, and apparent topocentric position. A
function now exists for converting PyEphem UT time to the user's local
time. Several other small improvements have also been made.

About: Raptor is a C library providing a set of parsers and serializers
for Resource Description Framework (RDF) triples by parsing syntaxes into
RDF triples and serializing triples into a syntax. The parsers support
RDF/XML, N-Triples, GRDDL, and Turtle, and via RSS tag soup: XML RSS, Atom
0.3, and Atom 1.0. The serializers support RDF/XML (3 flavours), Turtle,
DOT, N-Triples, RSS 1.0, and Atom 1.0. Raptor handles RDF/XML as used by
RDF applications such as RSS 1.0, FOAF, DOAP, Dublin Core, and OWL. It can
use either expat or libxml2 for XML parsing, libcurl when available for URI
retrieval, and is portable to many POSIX systems.
Changes: Full support for the GRDDL W3C Recommendation of 2007-09-11 was
added. The Turtle parser and serializer were updated to support @base. The
Turtle and RDF/XML serializers had performance improvements for large
graphs. A TRiG Parser based on Turtle with named graph support was added.
Several other API changes, fixes, and improvements were made.
