Artistic Software
Communications
Communications :: BBS
About: alph implements and analyzes historical and traditional ciphers and
codes, such as polyalphabetic, susbstitutional, and mixed employing
human-reconstructable algorithms. It provides a pipe filter interface in
order to encrypt and decrypt block text to acheive transparency. The
program is meant to be used in conjunction with external programs that
transfer data, resulting in transparent encryption or decryption of
information. The program can thus be used as a mail filter, IRC filter, IM
filter, and so on.
Changes: The code was cleaned up. Some corrections were done to the BIFID
cipher, which, for the time being, just manages encryption. The manpage
was updated and explains the use of the smasher function. Multiple passes
through the frequency analysis routine are now implemented.

Thu, Dec 30th 2004 03:32
Communications :: Chat
About: ARSC Really Simple Chat is a Web chat system that uses PHP and

It is very simple to install and use ARSC. It includes some important

rooms and different languages are available. To run ARSC on your site, you
need a Web server that understands PHP, and can connect to a MySQL
database.
Changes: This release re-introduces the socket server and the text-
browser compatible interface. Furthermore, it is now compatible with PHP5
and PHP installations with safe_mode set to On. Pre-4.3.0 PHP
installations are likewise supported by providing a wrapper for the
sha1() function. The moderation system was improved by providing a
two-leveled message queue system. The installation script was improved,
too. This version now ships by default with an InRoomChat layout and
Display user, which allows for a quick and easy setup of a digital
backchannel on conferences, meetings, or in classrooms.

[027] - FinchTV 1.2.1
by saragwyn (http://freshmeat.net/users/saragwyn/)
Thu, Dec 30th 2004 14:56
Scientific/Engineering :: Bioinformatics
Scientific/Engineering :: Visualization
About: FinchTV is a utility for viewing chromatogram files that
researchers use to easily view sequencing data with dynamic interactivity.
It supports both the .ab1 and .scf chromat file formats. It can display the
entire trace in a multi-pane view with or without the base sequence (A, C,
T, or G), the associated quality values, and the sequence positions. It
allows dynamic adjustment of the vertical scale to expand the heights of
peaks (allowing more detailed analysis), dynamic adjustment of the
horizontal scale (allowing visualization of extended or condensed
sequences), and display of the chromatogram trace as a single pane or in a
wrapped view. It allows the user to view additional chromatogram data
details when available, including the format, sample ID, plate label, run
start, run stop, spacing, mobility, lane number, number of lanes, and
more.
Changes: The application could crash when editing older ABI files.
Exporting sequences with deleted bases would result in underscores in the
export file. The Linux application is packaged as a fully static build
with no library dependencies.

content, and generates an appropriate final page with modifications to the
original. It is ideally suited for Java based sites (particularly JSP) but
can be dropped into any existing site that uses a Servlet engine including
static, CGI, PHP, and ColdFusion generated pages.

[102] - Terminal Emulator 0.2.2
by bmeurer (http://freshmeat.net/users/bmeurer/)
Thu, Dec 30th 2004 03:41
Desktop Environment :: Window Managers :: XFCE
Terminals :: Terminal Emulators/X Terminals
About: Terminal is a modern terminal emulator for the Unix/Linux desktop,
primarly for the Xfce desktop environment. It was developed because Xfce
needed a lightweight and easy-to-use terminal emulator that didn't require
the user to install the GNOME libraries, but still provided a worthy
alternative to the GNOME terminal emulator, with all the bells and
whistles.
Changes: Users can now switch to a specific terminal tab using
configurable keyboard shortcuts. Scrolling up/down by one line is now
possible using Shift+Up/Down keys. Terminal tabs can be detached from a
window. Multi-screen mode is now supported properly by Terminal (if you
use the patched Vte version). Several other bugs and glitches have been
addressed. There is also support for three new languages (en_GB, zh_TW,
and es).

System :: Software Distribution Tools
About: The poldek is an RPM package management tool which allows you to
easily perform package verification, installation (including system
installation from scratch), upgrading, and removal. Package dependencies

others to be installed, it will download all needed packages and install
them. It can be used in batch (like apt-get from Debian's APT) or
interactive mode. The interactive mode puts you into a readline interface
with commandline autocompletion and history, similar to the shell mode of
Perl's CPAN.
Changes: Support for RPM 4.4 was added. Two dependency processing fixes
were made. Several miscellaneous minor bugs were fixed.

Thu, Dec 30th 2004 03:51
Multimedia :: Sound/Audio
About: WAVE Utilities is a set of three programs for dealing with WAVE
format audio files. Some software is unable to parse complex WAVE files
containing such things as playlists and padding. SimplifyWave converts
complex files into files that such programs can read by stripping
everything other than the data chunk. RepairWave inserts the required data
chunk id and size information into ill-formed files in which the audio data
directly follows the header. InfoWave extracts information from a RIFF/WAV
or RIFX/WAV file and reports on the contents of the file.
