[001] - Aapl C++ Template Library 2.12
by Adrian Thurston (http://freshmeat.net/users/age/)
Sun, May 15th 2005 13:52
Software Development :: Libraries
About: Aapl is a C++ template library for generic programming. It contains
Linked List, AVL Tree, Vector, Binary Search Table, String, and Sort. The
library is designed to be versatile for the programmer by providing
variations of the standard data structures. For example, there is a
by-value linked list as well as a by-structure linked list that utilizes
both inheritance and templates to allow a single instance of a data
structure to be an element in multiple lists. Aapl data structures do not
have private data members, nor do they depend on heap memory allocation.
Changes: Documentation updates were made across all classes. Table
comparison now properly inherits the CompareT class, enabling table
comparisons to call non-static element compare classes. A non-standard
header include has been removed. The Deque structure has been removed.

Sun, May 15th 2005 13:57
Games/Entertainment
Multimedia :: Graphics
Software Development :: Libraries
About: Allegro is a multi-platform game library for C/C++ developers that
provides many functions for graphics, sounds, player input (keyboard,
mouse, and joystick), and timers. It also provides fixed and floating
point mathematical functions, 3D functions, file management functions,
compressed datafile, and a GUI.
Changes: This release fixes a bug when loading greyscale TGA images, a bug
where the bottom and right line of pixels was not updated on
show_video_bitmap(), some unsafe assumptions on the size of integer data
types, Allegro's internal multithreading in Windows (which fixes a
deadlock on exit), a problem with hardware cursors not working properly in
Mac OS X, warnings and errors with gcc 4.0.0 in the Unix port, and another
X11 async reply. Now the seek in expackf test works with Windows line
endings. Alt+key = ASCII code 0 behavior for the Windows keyboard driver
has been restored.

Database
Database :: Database Engines/Servers
Software Development
About: db.* is a database management system (DBMS) designed to provide
powerful, flexible, high-performance capabilities for developing embedded
database applications. By combining the network and relational model
technologies in a single system, it lets you organize and access
information efficiently, regardless of the complexity of the data. The
database has a very small footprint and because it is possible to use the
network model to store some of the data, it can be very fast. It is also
well-documented and quite simple to learn because of its C-based API.
Changes: Since 1.0, there has been a major code cleanup, XML export
support was added, and the build system was changed to the standard GNU
autotools-based system. Support for other platforms, including eCos and
uClinux, has been added. There have also been various minor bugfixes and
functionality improvements. Also, a test suite framework has been added to
insure that code changes do not affect the basic functionality of the
database.

Artistic Software
Desktop Environment :: Gnome
Multimedia :: Graphics
About: Gnofract 4D is a Gnome-based program to draw fractals. What sets it
apart from other fractal programs (and makes it "4D") is the way that it

four-dimensional fractal object. It contains a Fractint-compatible formula
compiler, allowing it to draw an unlimited number of fractal types, using
numerous coloring options.
Changes: This release fixes two significant bugs, for problems where
coloring information was lost when a new formula was selected, and where
some files created by earlier releases could no longer be loaded.

About: HTTrack is an easy-to-use offline browser utility. It allows you to
download a Web site from the Internet to a local directory, building
recursively all directories, getting HTML, images, and other files from
the server to your computer. HTTrack arranges the original site's relative
link-structure. Simply open a page of the mirrored Web site in your
browser, and you can browse the site from link to link, as if you were
viewing it online. HTTrack can also update an existing mirrored site, and
resume interrupted downloads. WebHTTrack is a Web-based GUI for HTTrack.
Changes: This new experimental introduces a new download engine and parser
that no longer needs link testing, and improves background downloading to
handle large sites. This release also fixes a crash which occurred when
ftime()/localtime() returned NULL. The iso-9660 option now uses "_" for
the collision character instead of the bogus (ISO-9660) "-". Collision
problems with case sensitivity were fixed. A bogus "a href" was fixed.

by Attila Nagyidai (http://freshmeat.net/users/nagyat/)
Sun, May 15th 2005 04:18
Security
System :: Shells
About: Iron Bars SHell is a restricted Unix shell. The user can not step
out of, nor access, files outside the home directory. Two ASCII
configuration files are used for more control. The system administrator
can define which commands may be executed by the user. No other
executables are allowed. The admin also has the opportunity to define what
kind of files the user may create. If a file has a certain extension (such
as .mp3, .c, etc.), ibsh automatically erases it.
Changes: Two segfaults, caused by non-US characters and empty files, were
fixed. Ctrl-Z is now ignored, and sample XTNL config files were added for
help.

Desktop Environment :: K Desktop Environment (KDE)
Multimedia :: Sound/Audio
Multimedia :: Sound/Audio :: MIDI
About: A Step Sequencer is a sequencer in which the MIDI notes are
delivered at regular time intervals, usually a 1/4th of a quarter note. As
such, it is not as versatile as a regular sequencer as Rosegarden4, but
allows very easy creation of loops and sequences. The use of the MIDI
clock allows several sequencers communicate clock events, so it is
possible to join several sequencers, with a diverse focus, to make one
single synchronized composition. KMidiTracker allows the use of graphical
MIDI controllers, pitch bend, SysEx messages, MIDI clock syncronization,
variable time signatures, and more.
Changes: Bugfixes, MIDI Thru, and a small settings dialog.

Changes: The focus of this release is on gameplay improvement with six
'mini games': Jumping Jack, Outbreak, Barrier, Sitting Ducks, Hunter, and
Invaders, which will come up every four normal levels in any level set as
an 'extra mile'. These levels may also be played directly as virtual level
sets. For each one, there is a short explanation in the menu. Besides that,
the volume control has been fixed and a security patch has been applied.

Sun, May 15th 2005 09:35
Multimedia :: Video
Multimedia :: Video :: Conversion
Multimedia :: Video :: Display
About: Libquicktime is based on the great quicktime4linux library with
several enhancements. All 3rd-party libraries were removed from the
sourcetree. Instead, the systemwide installed libraries are detected by
the configure script. All original codecs were moved into dynamically
loadable modules, and new codecs are in development. Libquicktime is
source-compatible with quicktime4linux (i.e., all quicktime4linux apps can
be linked with libquicktime). Special API extensions allow access to the
codec registry and more convenient processing of Audio and Video data.
Libquicktime comes with all original utility programs, and additional
tools, like a commandline player and a GTK configuration utility which can
configure the parameters of all installed codecs. The configuration is
stored in the home directory and is be used by all libquicktime
applications.
Changes: This is mostly a bugfix release. No major new features were
added. All audio decoders should now decode up to the last sample. Header
files are now installed into prefix/include/lqt to avoid conflicts with
the native QuickTime API on Mac OS X.

Sun, May 15th 2005 13:53
Internet :: Name Service (DNS)
System :: Networking
About: nss-mdns is a plugin for the GNU Name Service Switch (NSS)
functionality of the GNU C Library (glibc) which provides host name
resolution via Multicast DNS (a.k.a. Zeroconf, a.k.a. Apple Rendezvous,
a.k.a Apple Bonjour). This effectively allows name resolution by common
Unix/Linux programs in the ad-hoc mDNS domain .local.
Changes: This release has a small portability fix for big endian
architectures. It sends "legacy unicast" packets instead of normal mDNS
packets (which should reduce traffic and improve response time).

[043] - Peeranha42 1.0.4
by eecid (http://freshmeat.net/users/eecid/)
Sun, May 15th 2005 17:29
About: Peeranha42 is an all-in-one software solution for P2P networks. The
software consists of two components, the P42 Client and the P42 Development
Kit. The client is the core of the software package and has a special
pluggable architecture. Furthermore, it builds up the interface between
the P2P network of JXTA and plugins using P2P networks. Due to the fact
that developing a P2P application is generally much harder and time
expensive than developing a simple client-server application, the client
offers an abstract network layer for easy development of P2P applications
in the form of P42 Plugins in minimum time. Some plugins are available for
download.
Changes: Every peerGroup now uses one PublishThread. This release adds
ICCPMsgReplyQueue (easier integration of new ICCP Sub Modules) and
ICCPPluginMessage (send messages from a plugin to another client where the
destination plugin is not loaded yet).

[055] - subPersistence 0.9.0 (Hibernate 3)
by Maik Schreiber (http://freshmeat.net/users/blizzy/)
Sun, May 15th 2005 04:12
Database
About: subPersistence is an abstract, light-weight, yet flexible framework
for working with O/R persistence mappers. It provides for independence of a
specific O/R mapper such as Hibernate or Castor. While you can use
Hibernate or Castor (or other O/R mappers) directly, coupling your
application too tightly to those can be a bad thing. subPersistence makes
it easy to switch underlying O/R mappers, thereby decoupling the
application layer from those. It abstracts away differences between the
mappers, while still making it possible to use their specific features if
needed.

by Sébastien Godard (http://freshmeat.net/users/godard/)
Sun, May 15th 2005 09:38
System :: Monitoring
System :: Systems Administration
About: The sysstat package contains the sar, mpstat, and iostat commands
for Linux. The sar command collects and reports system activity
information. This information can also be saved in a system activity file
for future inspection. The iostat command reports CPU statistics and I/O
statistics for tty devices and disks. The statistics reported by sar
concern I/O transfer rates, paging activity, process-related activites,
interrupts, network activity, memory and swap space utilization, CPU
utilization, kernel activities, and TTY statistics, among others. Both UP
and SMP machines are fully supported.
Changes: Additional fields were added to sar -y (TTY statistics). sar -d
now only reports for used devices (devices with non-zero statistics). A
bug that prevented iostat from displaying stats about devices that were
unknown in the sysstat.ioconf file was fixed. iostat might display bogus
sectors values when the corresponding kernel counters had overflown. This
is now fixed. "sadf datafile -- -A" should also display individual
interrupts if available in the datafile. A bug that prevented sar -x from
displaying stats about a process if it was after the first 256 processes
in the process list was fixed.

[066] - WindowLab 1.28
by Nick Gravgaard (http://freshmeat.net/users/nickgravgaard/)
Sun, May 15th 2005 13:54
Desktop Environment :: Window Managers
About: WindowLab is a small and simple window manager of novel design. It
has a click-to-focus but not raise-on-focus policy, a window resizing
mechanism that allows one or many edges of a window to be changed in one
action, and an innovative menubar that shares the same part of the screen
as the taskbar. Window titlebars are prevented from going off the edge of
the screen by constraining the mouse pointer. When appropriate, the
pointer is also constrained to the taskbar/menubar in order to make target
menu items easier to hit.
Changes: Focus is returned to the previous window when the focused window
is closed or hidden. A serious problem with using a modifier key for
resizing that occurred on some systems was fixed. The resizing system was
changed to use alt instead of the Windows key. A bug when using
alt-tab/alt-q to switch focus to a hidden window was fixed. The default
font name was changed to work with Xorg.
