  by Guido Gonzato (http://freshmeat.net/users/goccia/)
  Mon, May 30th 2005 07:28

Printing

About: abcm2ps is a package that converts music tunes from ABC format to
PostScript. Based on abc2ps version 1.2.5, it was developed mainly to
print baroque organ scores that have independant voices played on one or
more keyboards, and a pedal-board. It introduces many extensions to the
ABC language that make it suitable for classical music. 

Changes: Some layout bugs were fixed. The new command %%historyfont was
added.

About: anymeal is a cookbook database front-end. It can handle more than
100,000 recipes, and can search recipes for a given set of ingredients. It
is designed to be lean and flexible. 

Changes: It is possible to add users to existing databases now. The user
interface allows you to export recipes as FO files. Some icons have been
added to make the user interface look nicer.

Internet
Software Development :: Libraries :: Java Libraries

About: ApacheDS is an LDAP and X.500 experimentation  platform. Its
backend subsystem and frontend are  separable and independently
embeddable. It provides a server side JNDI LDAP provider that directly
interacts with the backend storage. It is powered by SEDA (Staged
Event-Driven Architecture), which can handle large amounts of concurrency.

Changes: A Kerberos plugin which provides a full Kerberos V service, a
customizable authentication interface, and a Samba/DHCP schema were added.
The networking layer has been replaced with MINA, which yields better
performance. The API has been cleaned up while fixing numerous bugs.

[004] - Bantam 0.3 
  by Matt Gushee (http://freshmeat.net/users/mgushee/)
  Mon, May 30th 2005 14:38

Desktop Environment :: File Managers

About: Bantam is a fast, light file manager for X11. It is targeted at
power users who know their way around a file system and like to use the
keyboard. Its important features include single-keystroke commands as the
primary mode of operation, an arbitrary number of directory views, and a
configurable interface to external file viewers and editors.

Changes: New features include recursive copying of directories, a prompt
to rename a file when copying or moving to a directory that has a file
with the same name, and the x_terminal_here function, which (obviously)
launches an X terminal in the current directory. Bugfixes include
improvements to listbox selection behavior and various fixes to the build
process.

[005] - BlockHosts 0.9 
  by Avinash Chopde (http://freshmeat.net/users/avinash1/)
  Mon, May 30th 2005 10:23

System :: Networking

About: BlockHosts is a script to record how many times "sshd" or "proftpd"
is attacked. When a particular IP address exceeds a configured number of
failed login attempts, that IP address is added to /etc/hosts.allow, with
the deny option.

Changes: ProFTPD logs can now be analysed for break-in attempts.
blockhosts itself will now log to syslog; there is no need to create a new
logfile for blockhosts anymore. The documentation has been updated and a
blockhosts.html file added. This version is a candidate for official
release as version 1.0.

Database
Database :: Database Engines/Servers
Database :: Front-Ends

About: Clustered JDBC is to databases what RAID is for disks. C-JDBC
provides transparent database clustering (partitioning, replication, etc.)
to any Java application through JDBC. It works with any Java application
without code modification and with any database engine. C-JDBC has been
successfully tested with Tomcat, JBoss, JOnAS, WebSphere, MySQL,
PostgreSQL, HSQL, SAP DB, Oracle, Sybase, MS SQL, Firebird, and more. 

Changes: This version included a major update for controller replication
with many reliability fixes and upgraded group communication. New features
were added to the driver for dynamic controller connection policies along
with a new optional debug mode. Backend recovery and transfer, controller
shutdown, and other console commands were also fixed and improved.

  Mon, May 30th 2005 10:22

Software Development :: Quality Assurance
Software Development :: Testing

About: Cobertura is a Java tool that calculates the percentage of code
accessed by tests. It can be used to identify which parts of your Java
program are lacking test coverage. It is based on jcoverage.

Changes: A bug has been fixed that sometimes resulted in a
StringIndexOutOfBoundsException when running cobertura-report. A bug where
classes without coverage data ("N/A") were not always sorted correctly in
the HTML report has been fixed. "N/A" is shown in the branch column of the
HTML report for classes and packages that do not have any branches.

Internet :: WWW/HTTP
Internet :: WWW/HTTP :: Dynamic Content :: CGI Tools/Libraries
Software Development :: Code Generators

About: CodeWorker is a versatile parsing tool and a universal source code
generator. It interprets a scripting language for producing reusable,
tailor-made, evolving, and reliable IT systems with a high level of
automation. The file formats to parse are described in an extended-BNF
syntax. Template-based scripts drive the writing of patterns for
generating code or text. The code generation knows how to preserve
protected areas with hand-typed code and provides code expansion,
source-to-source translation, and program transformation. It provides a
native translation of CodeWorker's scripts in C++. 

Changes: Two minor bugs were fixed, one impacting the code generation in
automatic indent mode. The saveProject(), loadBinaryFile(), and loadFile()
functions now accept a second parameter, facultative. Some inopportune
warnings were removed.

System :: Software Distribution
System :: Software Distribution Tools
System :: Systems Administration

About: Current is a server for Red Hat's up2date tools. It can scale  to
hundreds of machines. The backend is powered by one of  several SQL
databases. It aims to be a complete remote  management system for any
Linux machines that can run  up2date. 

Changes: This developers' release aimed at getting a model and classes
written for Web page templating. Some features of a Web-based RPM
management and updating system were added. Changes were made to the
database backend to handle creation and deletion of on-disk symlinks to
packages in a much better and more fault tolerant way. RPMs are now always
named what up2date expects them to be.

Software Development
Software Development :: Code Generators
Software Development :: Compilers

About: ferite is a lighweight, portable, threadsafe scripting engine with
a language that is very easy to pick up and use. It is fast, has a very
small footprint, is object-oriented, and is designed to be modular and
embeddable in other applications.

Changes: protocols, closures, static constructors, and destructors on
classes have been added to the language. Regular expressions are now dealt
with using a more powerful API rather than held within the language. A set
of tools has been shipped with the release: farm, a sane build system for
binaries and libraries; manual-builder, a sane XML to PDF/HTML
documentation system; and feritedoc, a sane tool for generating source
code documentation.

  Mon, May 30th 2005 23:21

Internet :: WWW/HTTP :: Dynamic Content
Software Development :: Libraries :: PHP Classes
Text Processing :: Markup :: HTML/XHTML

About: GeSHi is a generic syntax highlighter for PHP that takes any source
code and highlights it in XHTML and CSS. It features case-sensitive or
insensitive highlighting, auto-caps/non-caps of any keyword, an unlimited
scope for styling, the use of CSS in which almost any aspect of the source
can be highlighted, the use of CSS classes to massively reduce the amount
of output code, function-to-URL capabilities, line numbering, and much
more. Over 30 languages are supported, including Java, C, PHP, HTML, CSS,
SQL, Pascal, C++, XML, ASP, and ASM.

Changes: RAM usage was greatly reduced and speed was increased. This was
brought about at the expense of namespace support. In addition, the
get-keywords script gets a whole extra bunch of keywords for CSS, and some
cruft code has been removed.

  Mon, May 30th 2005 07:29

Internet :: WWW/HTTP :: Dynamic Content :: CGI Tools/Libraries
Software Development :: Libraries :: PHP Classes

About: HTML Forms generation and validation is a PHP class that generates
HTML forms supporting keyboard navigation, has many built-in validation
types on server and client sides, prevents security attacks by discarding
spoofed values, has multiple submit protection, outputs HTML for fields
displayed as fully accessible or in read-only mode, has field value
filtering based on regular expressions, and has automatic capitalization
of field text. It can be extended with custom input control plug-in
classes. Calendar date and CAPTCHA plug-in controls are available. The
form output can be defined with templates using HTML with embedded PHP or
the Smarty template engine.

Changes: The output of the forms was made more compliant with XHTML. An
example was added to demonstrate how to link two select inputs and make
one show a different set of options depending of the option set on the
other.

[022] - Install Kernel 0.9.1 (Stable)
  by Justin Piszcz (http://freshmeat.net/users/war7200/)
  Mon, May 30th 2005 10:21

System :: Installation/Setup

About: Install Kernel (ik) is a bash script that installs the Linux kernel
and automatically sets up LILO or GRUB. It also saves your kernel
configuration each time you do an install. This allows you to restore the
newest configuration file when you make a new kernel. This script is
intended for two groups of people; people new to compiling kernels, and
people who are tired of moving files around and editing their bootloader
configurations every time they install a new kernel. 

Changes: This release adds specific error reporting for each type of error
that is encountered. It optimizes the compilation process for the number of
CPUs in the system. All shell constructs have been updated to use $()
instead of back ticks. '=' has been fixed to be '==' (equality operator)
when comparing numbers and strings. All references to variables are now
quoted properly. echo is used instead of printf to increase speed as well
as reduce the number of programs required to use ik. Tabs have been
converted to two spaces to make code more readable.

[024] - jGnash 1.9.2 
  by Craig Cavanaugh (http://freshmeat.net/users/ccavanaugh/)
  Mon, May 30th 2005 16:13

Office/Business :: Financial :: Accounting

About: jGnash is a personal finance application written in Java. A JVM of
1.4 or greater is required. jGnash supports several account types,
including investment accounts. jGnash has support for split transactions,
nested accounts, scheduled transactions, commodities, and currencies.
jGnash can import QIF files, excluding investment accounts and
transactions. Data is stored in an XML format so it is easy to manipulate
and read the data external to the program. jGnash also has scripting
support to add custom reports and functionality. 

Changes: Several fixes have been made to the GnuCash import. The client /
server mode now handles Reminders and split transactions correctly. A
couple of small Reminder bugs were fixed.

  Mon, May 30th 2005 14:38

Games/Entertainment :: Multi-User Dungeons (MUD)
Games/Entertainment :: Role-Playing
Terminals :: Telnet

About: KildClient is a MUD client written with the GTK+ windowing toolkit.
It supports many common features of other clients, such as triggers, gags,
aliases, macros, timers, and much more. But its main feature is the
built-in Perl interpreter. At any moment, the user can execute Perl
statements and functions to do things much more powerful than simply
sending text the the MUD. Perl statements can also be run, for example, as
the action of a trigger, allowing you to do complex things. Some built-in
functions of KildClient allow interaction with the world, such as sending
commands to it. KildClient supports MCCP (Mud Client Compression Protocol)
versions 1 and 2, and a direct chat system to other users of KildClient or
other clients compatible with the MudMaster or zChat protocols.

Communications :: Email :: Email Clients (MUA)
Communications :: Email :: Post-Office :: IMAP

About: Knight's Mail is a Web mail application that uses XUL to render the
client display. Its goal is to look and feel as close to Mozilla
Thunderbird as possible, while maintaining the positive qualities of a Web
mail client such as keeping settings on the server and only requiring a
(Mozilla-based) browser to be installed on the client.

Changes: This release mostly works in that you can read and send mail,
though certain things don't work yet.

Communications :: Chat
Communications :: Chat :: AOL Instant Messenger
Communications :: Chat :: ICQ

About: Kopete is a flexible and extendable multiple protocol instant
messaging system designed as a plugin-based system. All protocols are
plugins and allow modular installation, configuration, and usage without
the main application knowing anything about the plugin being loaded. The
goal of Kopete is to provide users with a standard and easy to use
interface between all of their instant messaging systems, but at the same
time also providing developers with the ease of writing plugins to support
a new protocol. The core Kopete development team provides a handful of
plugins that most users can use, in addition to templates for new
developers to base a plugin on.

Changes: An update was made for a change to the MSN servers that caused
the program to display "wrong password" errors when attempting to connect
to the MSN service. This release should work with KDE 3.3 and above.
Future versions will ship with KDE 3.4.1.

the type/format of the database.

Changes: A Solaris portability problem where a lot of valid requests
failed was fixed along with potential problems on 64-bit systems. IDMEF
FileAccess insertion and bad indexes were fixed, DELETE operation speed
was improved, and handling for IDMEFv14 file_type attributes was added.
Several PostgreSQL incompatibilities in generated request were corrected
and the PostgreSQL schema was updated. Various bugfixes were made.

the construction of dashboards with graphs, pie charts, etc., while the
thresholds functionality includes warning by emails and user defined
scripts. Any part of the visible data can be archived in an SQL database
by both the GUI and the companion daemon, so that complete history over
time can be made available from Web pages, common spreadsheet software,
etc.

Changes: The daemon code was optimized to use less memory. The default
directory for the daemon dashboards was changed to /srv in compliance with
the Filesystem Hierarchy Standard. A few minor improvements and bugfixes
were also included.

[036] - My Own Building System (MOBS) 2.0 
  by Dervish D (http://freshmeat.net/users/dervishd/)
  Mon, May 30th 2005 13:22

Software Development :: Build Tools

About: MOBS is a building system a la autoconf, but a lot easier for both
developers and users. It doesn't have detection (yet), but it's very easy
to use and tune, even for small projects. If you want your project to be
configurable and accept most './configure' options but without the hassle
and burden autoconf and friends impose, this is for you. It has good
documentation and a low steep learning curve, and even has a bit of
application framework in order to ease development.

Changes: The spirit behind this release has changed, and it is now far
more powerful than before. Unfortunately, this means that the developer
has to do a bit more work in order to put his project under it.
Documentation should be read in order to know how the new version works.

About: NoMachine NX is a fast terminal server system based on the X11
protocol. In addition, NX also translates and embeds the MS Windows
Terminal Server and VNC protocols into X/NX. NX is an order of magnitude
faster than VNC or X11 and can run on bandwidth as narrow as 10 kBit/sec.
By embedding RDP and RFB, it enables users to compress and accelerate
remote Windows and VNC sessions. NX lets you work fluently even across
slow links like modems. 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 over
the  Internet.

established by  the user. It is useful for running many model runs  on a
Beowulf cluster, or for control of the model  runs on single processor
machines. It can also  monitor the model runs through an internal queue, 
or place the modeling jobs into a queue managed  by other software. It is
written in Python. 

Changes: pyspg is now used for the development of the lists of values.
Values may now be drawn from any statistical distribution in Python's
"random" module. The code is significantly faster due to rewrites and
clean-ups.

  by Bill Poser (http://freshmeat.net/users/billposer/)
  Mon, May 30th 2005 23:22

Software Development
Text Processing :: Linguistic

About: Redet (Regular Expression Development and Execution Tool) is a tool
for developing and executing regular expressions using any of more than 20
search programs, editors, and programming languages. For each program in
each locale a palette showing the available regular expression constructs
is provided. The features of each program are determined by running a test
suite, which guarantees that they will be correct for the particular
program version in use and for the user's locale. The locale may be
changed without exiting Redet. Selections from the palette may be copied
to the regular expression window with a mouse click. Definitions can be
added to the palette via an initialization file. The regular expressions
executed are recorded in a history list, from which entries may be copied
to the regular expression window with a mouse click. This allows complex
regular expressions to be developed in pieces. When a suitable regular
expression has been constructed it may be saved to a file. Named character
classes may be defined in a file or entered interactively. As long as the
underlying program supports Unicode, Redet fully supports UTF-8 Unicode. 

Changes: The previously rather bare locale selection dialog now has cancel
and save buttons, a title, and a scrollbar. A bug that resulted in errors
on locale change was fixed.

[064] - rlocate 0.3.1 
  by Rasto Levrinc (http://freshmeat.net/users/rastol/)
  Mon, May 30th 2005 13:21



About: rlocate is an implementation of the "locate" command that is always
up-to-date. The database that the original locate uses is usually updated
only once a day, so newer files cannot be located right away. The behavior
of rlocate is the same as slocate, but it also maintains a diff database
that gets updated whenever a file is created or a directory is moved. The
rlocate kernel module can be compiled only with Linux 2.6 kernels. 

Changes: A possible segfault in fast updatedb was fixed.

[066] - Sprog 0.09 
  by Grant McLean (http://freshmeat.net/users/grantm/)
  Mon, May 30th 2005 16:12

Desktop Environment :: Tools
Information Management
Internet :: Log Analysis

About: Sprog is a graphical tool that anyone can use to build programs by
plugging parts together. In Sprog jargon, the parts are known as 'gears'
and they are assembled to make a 'machine'. Gears are selected from a
palette and dragged onto the Sprog workbench, where they can be connected
together. Options can be set using a properties dialog on each gear. When
assembly is complete, the machine can be run, reconfigured, or re-run.

Changes: This release adds lots of new functionality: a built-in help
viewer (with a lot of help text), many new gears (WriteFile,
CommandFilter, CSVSplit, ParseHTMLTable, SelectColumns, StripWhitespace,
ListToCSV, ListToRecord, TemplateTT2, PerlCodeAP, and RetrieveURL), and
improvements to the framework (auto-discovery of gear classes, a new
scheduler implementation, and an improved API for PerlCode gears).

Software Development :: Libraries
Software Development :: Libraries :: Application Frameworks
Software Development :: User Interfaces

About: The Xfce Foundation Classes is a set of integrated C++  classes for
developing Xfce and GTK+ applications on UNIX- like operating systems such
as Linux. The classes combine  the power of GTK+ and the power of C++ into
a state-of- the-art application development framework for the Xfce  Desktop
Environment. The classes judiciously use C++  language features to avoid
layering on too much extra C++  complexity. The API is easy to understand
and use, and  should feel immediately familiar to most GTK+  programmers. 

Changes: A new libXFCglade module was added, a C++ binding for libglade
which allows you to use a Glade generated interface in an XFC application.

supports multiple plugins such as a Windows network plugin (xfsamba 4.3),
a bookmarks plugin, fstab plugin, and others. It is used in the Xfce
desktop environment, and despite being full-featured, it is small and fast
thanks to the plugin design.

Changes: The iconview GUI has become the default GUI and is considered
stable and open for any bug reports. Development will now proceed by
freezing the API and generating documentation for plugin creation. Many
new features have been added to the iconview. A new plugin (slocate)
allows the user to display the results of the slocate command as icons
within xffm, in either iconview or treeview mode. The minimum requirements
for compiling xffm have been reduced.

[085] - YourKit Java Profiler 4.5-EAP4 
  by YourKit Team (http://freshmeat.net/users/YourKitTeam/)
  Mon, May 30th 2005 01:12

Software Development

About: YourKit Java Profiler is a CPU and memory profiler that makes it
easy to solve wide range of CPU- and memory-related performance problems.
It features automatic leak detection, powerful tools for the analysis of
memory distribution, an object heap browser, comprehensive memory tests as
part of your JUnit testing process, extremely low profiling overhead,
transparent deobfuscation support, and integration with Eclipse, JBuilder,
IntelliJ IDEA, NetBeans, and JDeveloper IDEs. 

Changes: Additional metrics are now shown in the telemetry view. All
locally running applications, including those started as service (e.g.
Tomcat), are correctly detected when connecting from the profiler's
Control Panel. The list of applications to connect for each application
shows a descriptive name based on main class or jar file of the
application. To distinguish snapshots captured on exit, they are named
with prefix based on the main class or jar file of the profiled

create a local RMI registry, profiled with Java 1.3 or 1.4.

About: The Zero Install Injector makes it possible for users to install
software easily and without the need for root privileges. It takes the URL
of a program's interface description and chooses suitable versions of the
program and all of its dependencies (also identified by URLs) according to
the user's policy settings (eg. "stable", "testing", "minimal network use",
etc). The chosen versions are downloaded and cached and the program is run,
using environment variables to let it find the components.

Changes: Older PyGTK versions (2.2.x) are now also supported. Man pages
for 0launch and 0alias were added. To make life easier for packagers,
interfaces can now be imported from local files for testing, and the
timestamp is now picked up automatically from the GPG signature.
