[001] - 3rd Edition Dungeons & Dragons Character Generator 4.3
by Slicer (http://freshmeat.net/users/slicer/)
Sat, Feb 28th 2009 22:26
Games/Entertainment :: Role-Playing
About: 3rd Edition Dungeons and Dragons Character Generator is an
HTML/JavaScript Web page that allows the user to quickly and easily create
new Dungeons and Dragons characters. The characters can be of any of the
eleven classes, any of the playable races, and may start at any level from
1 to 220. Generation requires some simple input, after which the character
is displayed on a basic character sheet. It allows you to select your
starting stats, add ability points, and pick skills, equipment, feats, and
spells. It runs on most operating systems with most modern browsers.
Changes: Wizards and Sorcerers are now guaranteed to be able to get the
Detect Magic spell. Typographical errors were fixed. A bug with the Ride
skill was fixed.

[002] - acolor 1.1.1
by QY (http://freshmeat.net/users/qunying/)
Sat, Feb 28th 2009 08:06
System :: Shells
About: acolor (Ada/ANSI color) is a simple Ada program that makes it easy
to color and format output from shell scripts. It does this by converting
combinations of readable arguments (bold, red, green, underline, etc.) into
an ANSI escape sequence that your terminal emulator or console may
understand. It is Moshe Jacobson's color rewritten in Ada.
Changes: For each output, the reset attribute is no longer output unless
requested from the command line. Moshe's color behavior is matched.

[004] - Back In Time 0.9.12
by Dan (http://freshmeat.net/users/danleweb/)
Sat, Feb 28th 2009 00:03
System :: Archiving :: Backup
Utilities
About: Back In Time is a simple backup system for Linux (Gnome & KDE4)
inspired by the "flyback project" and "TimeVault". The backup is done by
taking snapshots of a specified set of directories. All you have to do is
configure: where to save snapshot, what directories to backup, and when a
backup should be done (manually, every hour, every day, every week, or
every month). It acts as a "user mode" backup system. This means that you
can backup and restore only folders to which you have write access.
Changes: If you include the ".abc" folder and exclude ".*", ".abc" will
now be saved in the snapshot. Help has been added to the KDE4 version. A
Slovenian translation has been added. In GNOME, bookmarks with special
characters have been fixed.

Internet :: WWW/HTTP :: Dynamic Content :: Page Counters
About: CMME (Content Management Made Easy) is a Web content management
system that aims to be easy to use, doesn't have many requirements, and is
still reasonably flexible. It doesn't need a database, doesn't have
extensive administrative needs, and works more or less like a wiki. New
pages can be made on the fly, rather than through an administrative page.
Changes: This version resolves security issues in 1.19. Also, the backup
system has been refactored to be more secure and direct.

[011] - DarGUI 0.5.0
by Malcolm Poole (http://freshmeat.net/users/pastorescoces/)
Sat, Feb 28th 2009 22:31
System :: Archiving :: Backup
About: DarGUI is a graphical frontend for the Disk ARchiving utility (DAR)
that aims to make it easier and quicker to perform common backup tasks
using DAR. It uses the GTK+ library, which is installed on most Linux
distributions, so usually the only additional dependency is DAR. DarGUI
aims to complement and enhance the command line features of DAR rather than
conceal them, and to help users to learn how DAR works so that they can use
it from the command line when necessary. It is written in Pascal using
FreePascal and the Lazarus IDE.
Changes: This release adds support for scheduling backups using atd and
cron where available. DarGUI can now save backup scripts. Backup settings
can now be saved and reloaded. HTML Help is now available. The archive
creation dialog has been improved.

[013] - EPM-win32sfx 0.8
by milky (http://freshmeat.net/users/milky/)
Sat, Feb 28th 2009 23:10
About: EPM-win32sfx is a wrapper around the ESP Package Manager. It adds
support for artless Windows installers, besides the usual supported .rpm
and .deb packages and portable archives and graphical EPM installers. It is
supposed to simplify the annoying building of Win32-installers in addition
to proper BSD/Linux packages. Ironically, the wrapper runs only on Unix
systems.
Changes: Parsing of command line arguments has been fixed. EPM .list files
are now detected correctly.

[014] - ExactImage 0.7.0
by René Rebe (http://freshmeat.net/users/ReneRebe/)
Sat, Feb 28th 2009 23:21
Multimedia :: Graphics
About: ExactImage is a fast C++ image processing library. Unlike
ImageMagick, it allows operation in several color spaces and bit depths
natively, resulting in much lower memory and computational requirements.
Some optimized algorithms operate in 1/20 of the time ImageMagick requires,
and displaying large images can be as fast as 1/10 of the time the
"display" program takes.
Changes: A PCX and Targe decoder were added. The external API
ImageCropRotate was fixed to accept negative values, and the font methods
now accept an optional font filename. An off-by-some error was fixed for
drawing text on vector paths. An external API was added to create, stroke,
and fill arbitrary vector paths. A method was added to directly create
synthetic images. The fastAutoCrop method was improved to auto-crop any
solidly filled color. The HOCR HTML parser was improved to parse and accept
more tags. Support for mirroring of RGBA data as well as setting colors
with alpha value was added.

[016] - ferm 2.0.5 (Stable)
by Max Kellermann (http://freshmeat.net/users/mkellermann/)
Sat, Feb 28th 2009 23:27
System :: Networking :: Firewalls
About: ferm is a tool to maintain and setup complicated firewall rules. It
allows one to reduce the tedious task of carefully inserting rules and
chains, thus enabling the firewall administrator to spend more time on
developing good rules, and less time on the proper implementation of those
rules. These rules will be executed by the preferred kernel interface, such
as ipchains and iptables, and in one pass. Firewall rules can also be split
into different files and loaded at will.
Changes: Double negation is detected. Detection of negated arrays was
improved. dpkg's backup/temporary files on @include are ignored. "Flush"
hooks were added.

[017] - Floola 4.9
by floola (http://freshmeat.net/users/floola/)
Sat, Feb 28th 2009 22:21
Multimedia :: Sound/Audio
Multimedia :: Video
About: Floola is an application to efficiently manage your iPod or your
Motorola mobile phone (any model supporting iTunes) under Linux, Mac OS X,
and Windows. It can be run directly from your iPod and needs no

[018] - glc2 2.0
by milky (http://freshmeat.net/users/milky/)
Sat, Feb 28th 2009 23:10
About: glc2 converts .glade user interface files into Python code. It
outputs standard pygtk widget instantiation calls, without low-level GTK
routines. It does not produce high-level OO wrappers. It uses a naive
parsing and widget construction approach, but can handle most GTK objects
and containers well.
Changes: Creation of menus and submenus is working now mostly. Support for
more container widgets and child packing has been added, but GtkTables
aren't handled well yet.

Sat, Feb 28th 2009 23:20
Games/Entertainment :: Real Time Strategy
About: Globulation is an innovative high quality real-time strategy which
minimizes micro-management by automatically assigning tasks to the units.
The player has to choose the number of units they want for the different
tasks, and the units will do their best to satisfy the requests. This
allows the player to manage more units and to focus on the strategy.
Changes: Many new features were added in offline and online game play,
including a priority system and map downloader/rating system.

[021] - gnetworktester 0.9
by lollo (http://freshmeat.net/users/lollo_/)
Sat, Feb 28th 2009 23:05
About: Gnetworktester is an application that helps users in testing the
quality of a network connection and in sending complaints on that to the
network provider. A procedure of testing takes three steps: choosing the
network nodes; automatic pinging of those nodes to collect statistics on
packet losses, delays, and overall quality; and automatic report writing.
Changes: Initial IPv6 support was added. Tooltips for cells in the main
table were added. Row colors were removed. Quality icons were added. New
actions were added for saving and opening menu items. Bugs in the network
map were fixed. The average line was added to the history graph. GUI
improvements were made. Some bugs were fixed.

Communications :: Telephony
Office/Business
Security
About: GNU SIP Witch is a pure SIP-based office telephone call server that
supports generic phone system features like call forwarding, hunt groups
and call distribution, call coverage and ring groups, holding, and call
transfer, as well as offering SIP specific capabilities such as presence
and messaging. It supports secure telephone extensions for making calls
over the Internet, and intercept/decrypt-free peer-to-peer audio and video
extensions. It is not a SIP proxy, a multi-protocol telephone server, or an
IP-PBX, and does not try to emulate Asterisk, FreeSWITCH, or Yate.
Changes: This release includes fixes related to logging, handling of URI
domain-based request names, the elimination of from header address
validation, fixes for parsing of config files and XML blocks nested in
comments, and reload processing. The scripting plugin now handles server
state changes.

Sat, Feb 28th 2009 08:01
Desktop Environment :: Gnome
Office/Business :: Financial :: Spreadsheet
About: Gnumeric is a powerful and easy to use spreadsheet using GNOME. Its
goal is to provide a full featured spreadsheet and a smooth migration path
for people and organizations currently using proprietary applications. It
provides more sheet functions and greatly improved accuracy when compared
to Microsoft's Excel. A plugin system lets you extend Gnumeric, adding
functions, I/O formats, and real time data capabilities. The existing
Python, Guile, and Perl plugins let you define complex functions. Gnumeric
is capable of reading and writing MS Excel (XLS and Office Open XML), and
reading Lotus, Applix, Quattro Pro, OpenCalc (ODF), XBase, DIF, SYLK, HTML,
Psion, MPS, oleo, sc, misc. text formats, and its native XML. It can also
generate Latex, HTML, and others.
Changes: This release fixed crashes in exporting an empty contour plot to
xls, XLS import, RANDDISCRETE, GROWTH/TREND, multi-view mode,
inter-process paste, undo for inter-workbook operations, and dbf import.
The sheet manage dialog, seealso links in the function browser,
Kaplan-Meier tool, regression tool output, Win32, and encoding detection on
HTML paste were improved, and drag of whole sheets was implemented. A
vulnerability in Python was worked around. Leaks, OOo, CSV, and STF import
and XLS export, auto filters, SUMIF, IF VLOOKUP, HLOOKUP, and BASE
SERIESSUM, were fixed.

Communications :: File Sharing
Security :: Cryptography
Software Development :: Libraries :: Application Frameworks
About: GNUnet is a peer-to-peer framework with focus on providing
security. All peer-to-peer messages in the network are confidential and
authenticated. The framework provides a transport abstraction layer and can
currently encapsulate the network traffic in UDP (IPv4 and IPv6), TCP (IPv4
and IPv6), HTTP, or SMTP messages. GNUnet supports accounting to provide
contributing nodes with better service. The primary service build on top of
the framework is anonymous file sharing.
Changes: This release fixes various bugs, including some causing crashes.

[026] - gWaei 0.15.0
by Zachary Dovel (http://freshmeat.net/users/pizzach2/)
Sat, Feb 28th 2009 08:11
Education
About: gWaei is a Japanese-English dictionary program for the GNOME
desktop. It is made to be a modern drop-in replacement for Gjiten, with
many of the same features. The dictionary files it uses are from Jim
Breen's WWWJDIC project and are installed separately through the program.
It features easy dictionary installation, support for searching using
regular expressions, streaming of results so the interface is never frozen,
and a simple interface that makes sense.
Changes: The program was almost completely rewritten. Many dangling are
now neatly put away into C structs. On the front end, there is a link
saying "Where can I get other dictionaries?" This is meant to help people
find other dictionaries that may work with gwaei. GTK+ support is now
optional, and you can now access most of the program's features through the
terminal.

Sat, Feb 28th 2009 22:22
Database :: Database Engines/Servers
System :: Clustering/Distributed Networks
About: H2 is an SQL database engine written in Java that implements the
JDBC API. Embedded, server, and clustering modes are available. A browser
based console application is included. The database has strong security
features. Disk based and in-memory databases and tables are supported.
Changes: Multiple processes can read and write to a database without
having to start a server. The compatibility with MySQL has been improved.
Exception messages now always contain the SQL statement and the row data.
The autocomplete feature has been improved a bit. When the shutdown hook
closed the database, the last log file was deleted too early. The database
file locking mechanism didn't work correctly on Mac OS X.

Internet :: Proxy Servers
Internet :: WWW/HTTP
Software Development :: Libraries
About: pacparser is a library to parse proxy auto-config (PAC) files.
Proxy auto-config files are a vastly used proxy configuration method these
days. Web browsers can use a PAC file to determine which proxy server to
use or whether to go direct for a given URL. The idea behind pacparser is
to make it easy to add PAC file parsing capability to any program (C and
Python are supported right now). It comes as a shared C library and a
Python module that can be used to make any C or Python program PAC scripts
intelligent. Some very useful targets could be popular Web software like
wget, curl, and python-urllib.
Changes: Some Makefile changes were made to compile the shared library as
PIC regardless of platform. Some more changes were made to make the package
Debian friendly.

Workstation. It uses mnemonic ASCII text commands to permit downstream
clients to easily access several worldwide securities markets and exchanges
(stocks, options, futures, bonds, and Forex) for "tick" data and history
(intraday and EoD). It also allows clients to initiate and supervise trades
of securities, manage accounts, and more.
Changes: The focus of this series so far has been on adding contract
expressions to the command language, and as part of this, providing access
to options. The command language now accepts IB contract ids in contract
expressions. There is also limited support for options. For the latter,
you'll first need to add options products to the database. Once this is
done, you may refer to them by the Ib contract id (ib conid, or ibc), as
noted above.

[065] - Vendetta Online 1.8.60
by Incarnate (http://freshmeat.net/users/incarnate/)
Sat, Feb 28th 2009 08:10
Games/Entertainment
Games/Entertainment :: Arcade
Games/Entertainment :: First Person Shooters
About: Vendetta Online is a multi-platform 3D space-combat MMO for
Windows, Mac, Linux/32 and Linux/64. The game permits players to interact
in a vast online galaxy; fighting, trading, and mining their way to
success. A "twitch" type real-time combat model makes true player skill the
deciding factor instead of character advancement. Massive capital-ship
battles shake the foundations of the major nations at war, while others
struggle to push back the encroachment of the AI "Hives". A no-strings free
trial is available.
Changes: Border Skirmish capships were repositioned more appropriately for
Serco/Itani jump-in locations. Friendly Fire exclusions were removed from
Latos M-7. Warp in and Warp/Jump out effects now have sound. Targeted ships
now show health and shield strength percentage on the health bar. Sector
notes now have multi-line support. The mission notification icon on the HUD
now jumps further to get your attention. Many other changes were made.
