Internet :: WWW/HTTP
Internet :: WWW/HTTP :: Browsers
About: CGIProxy is a Perl CGI script that acts as an Internet proxy.
Through it, you can retrieve resources that may be inaccessible from your
own machine. The user is kept as anonymous as possible from any servers.

proxies, and others. Options include text-only browsing (to save
bandwidth), selective cookie and script removal, simple ad filtering,
access restriction by server, encoded target URLs and cookies,
configuration by end user, and much more (currently about 50 config
options). Javascript is fully supported. An online demo is available.
Changes: This release contains many fixes, workarounds, and performance
improvements in the JavaScript support, and thus many more sites are
working correctly through it. Also, Shockwave Flash apps are now
supported, making e.g. video display at youtube.com work correctly.

information from the model. This was necessary for the Perl/Tk GUI. A way
to save configuration files in an alternate directory was added, so you
can try editing config files without being root. The awkward enum_integer
value type was removed.

exchange server through which all outbound mail flows as defined with
many, if not most, large Internet service providers.

by b100dian (http://freshmeat.net/users/b100dian/)
Mon, Mar 3rd 2008 08:41
Software Development :: Code Generators
Software Development :: Compilers
About: gtkaml is an XML syntax and an XML parser that extends the
Vala.Parser and transforms all your XML tags into a valid Gtk+ UI class.
It features a compact XML syntax for describing the way Gtk widgets are
laid out in a (new) custom widget you're creating. Code "islands" (written
in Vala) are used for widget signal handling and other
methods/signals/properties that you're introducing. It doesn't depend on
an external library at run-time, and it is much more readable than the
usual UI boilerplate.
Changes: You can now use either hyphens or underscores in attribute names.
The constructors and add functions can have default argument values
specified in Gtk.implicits. The gtkaml:construct and gtkaml:preconstruct
attributes support adding code to the construct {} method. The
gtkaml:implements attribute was added for listing comma-separated
implemented interfaces. The gtkaml:existing attribute was added for
skipping the creation of a widget. The gtkaml:standalone attribute was
added for skipping the add into the parent container. The Windows support
was improved.

Communications
Desktop Environment
Software Development
About: NoMachine NX is a fast terminal server and desktop virtualization
system based on the X11 protocol. NX is an order of magnitude faster than
VNC or X11 and can run on bandwidth as narrow as 10 kBit/sec. In addition,
NX translates and embeds the MS Windows Terminal Server and VNC protocols
into X/NX, enabling users to compress and accelerate remote Windows and
VNC sessions. The NX project provides a suite of libraries and X11
proxying agents implementing efficient compression and optimized transport
of X11, SMB, IPP, HTTP, and arbitrary protocols like audio and video over
the Internet.
Changes: This package offers the possibility to configure the RDP session
to run a single Windows application. Starting VNC sessions by using NX
Builder may fail. Notice and Warning messages may be displayed in the Web
page when running NX Builder. Both of these problems have been fixed.

powerful classing abilities for drawing out the similarities between hosts
while allowing them to be as specific as necessary, and it handles
dependency and prerequisite relationships between objects clearly and
explicitly.
Changes: This release fixes many bugs apparently introduced in 0.24, most
of them relatively minor.
