Texterize is a text and metadata extraction tool and library which can be used
to quickly get the text content of a file. It currently supports file formats
like PDF, Excel, Powerpoint, Word, RTF, WordPerfect, MP3, Ogg, and all
OpenDocument file formats. The output of texterize is either text or XML. It is
also designed to work with Unicode input and output, and the default output
character set is UTF-8. Texterize also has a recursive mode so that whole
directories (or whole filesystems) can be converted to text. This recursion
also works through archive files and compressed files like zip, tar, and gz
files.

CLISH is a modular framework for implementing a CISCO-like CLI on a Unix system. Arbitrary command menus and actions can be defined using XML files. This software handles the user interaction, and forks the appropriate system commands to perform any actions.

Limited Shell (lshell) provides a shell configurable per user. This is done quite simply using a configuration file. It becomes easy to restrict a user's access to a limited set of commands, choosing to enable/disable any command over SSH (e.g. SCP, SFTP, rsync, etc.). It also has a logging feature, timer restriction, and more.

inotail is a replacement for the 'tail' program found in the base installation
of every Linux/UNIX system. It makes use of the inotify infrastructure in
recent versions of the Linux kernel to speed up tailing files in the follow
mode (the '-f' option). Standard tail polls the file every second by default
while inotail listens to special events sent by the kernel through the inotify
API to determine whether a file needs to be reread.

Currently inotail is not fully compatible to neither POSIX or GNU tail but
might be in the future.

CCFE is a simple tool to quickly supply an interactive screen-oriented
interface to command line scripts and commands: it prompts users for the
informations needed to run them, and can be programmed with your preferred
shell to provide predefined selections and/or run-time defaults.

It provides:
* A generic curses form-based interface to enter options and arguments required by scripts/commands;
* A menu system to hierarchically organize them;
* A viewer to browse the standard output and standard error of invoked script/command.

In its simplest usage, you only have to describe the data type requested by the
command and specify the command itself: user interaction and screen layout are
automatically adapted so you don't have to care about it, but for complex
situations, CCFE is programmable with your preferred shell command language
interpreter and can propose lists of admitted values selectable by user for
parameters to enter.

dd is a Unix command line utility for copying data. ddpt adds features for
efficiently copying large amounts of data to and from disks. Apart from
accessing disks using traditional Unix read() and write() calls, ddpt can
optionally use SCSI pass-through interfaces to send SCSI commands to perform a
copy. In Linux, the pass-through can be used to send TRIM commands to SSDs. It
is written for Linux with ports to FreeBSD, Solaris, and Windows.

Some features found in ddpt which are not present in the (GNU) dd
implementation:
* sparse writing (i.e. don't write buffer if all zeros)
* write sparing (i.e. don't write buffer if already same as destination)
* resume (after the copy has been interrupted)
* trim on output of copy, self trim (pt interface only)
* send output to a second file (see 'of2=' option)
* access devices directly via pass-through interface, bypassing file system
* accept numeric command line arguments in hexadecimal
* explicit controls over how much data is read into the copy buffer and then
written to output (separate from the logical block sizes of any device
involved)

Duff is a command-line utility for quickly finding duplicates in a given set of
files.

This program can be used in a shell pipe to display speed and progress (if
size of stream is available).

PV ("Pipe Viewer") is a tool for monitoring the progress of data through a
pipeline. It can be inserted into any normal pipeline between two processes
to give a visual indication of how quickly data is passing through, how long
it has taken, how near to completion it is, and an estimate of how long it
will be until completion.

ssterm (short for "simple serial-port terminal") is a console-based serial port
terminal with curses and stdin/stdout user interfaces. ssterm supports a
variety of features, such as hexadecimal data representation, remapping of
transmitted and received newlines, newline character color-coding, buffer
scrolling/dumping, and data piping.

uni2ascii and ascii2uni convert between UTF-8 Unicode and any of a
variety of 7-bit ASCII equivalents including: hexadecimal and decimal HTML
numeric character references, \u-escapes, standard hexadecimal, and raw
hexadecimal. Such ASCII equivalents are useful when including Unicode text
in program source, when entering text into Web programs that can handle the
Unicode character set but are not 8-bit safe, and when debugging.

The Exquisite `df' (xdf) is a souped-up version of df(1) rewritten from scratch
and focused on flexibility of field selection and output format.

It offers HTML and CSV outputs, besides the traditional text-based console
output.

It is fit for system administrators who are tired of post-processing df(1)
output through shell or Perl scripts in order to avoid broken lines or to get a
simple total/summary line.

dxpc, the Differential X Protocol Compressor, improves X11 performance over low-bandwidth network connections.

Maintainer

x11vnc allows one to remotely view and interact with real X displays (i.e. a display corresponding to a physical monitor, keyboard, and mouse) with any VNC viewer. In this way it plays the role for Unix/X11 that WinVNC plays for Windows.

For Unix, the VNC implementation includes a virtual X11 server Xvnc (usually launched via the vncserver command) that is not associated with a real display, but provides a "fake" one X11 clients (xterm, mozilla, etc.) can attach to. A remote user then connects to Xvnc via the VNC client vncviewer from anywhere on the network to view and interact with the whole virtual X11 desktop.

The VNC protocol is in most cases better suited for remote connections with low bandwidth and high latency than is the X11 protocol. Also, with no state maintained the viewing-end can crash, be rebooted, or relocated and the applications and desktop continue running. Not so with X11.

* Look'n'feel customization via themes (see ThemeGallery)
* A bunch of widgets: desktop switcher, taskbar, launchbar, systray, clock,
decor, empty
* Pseudo-transparency support
* Written in C with speed and clarity in mind
* Small number of dependencies, briefly: glib2, cairo, pango, libX11
* Small memory footprint (about 2-4 megabytes)

Clickity is a tray-icon program for simulating mouse clicks and drags that are
difficult to perform because of limited hand use or limited pointing hardware.

It will run on any X system that supports tray icons, as well as Microsoft
Windows systems, and does not require an integrated desktop environment or
accessiblity framework to be installed.

Clickity displays an icon corresponding to the action it will perform when
activated either by holding down and then releasing the left mouse button or by
moving the pointer and letting it dwell in position. Actions include single
clicks, double clicks and drags of the left, right and middle buttons, as well
as scroll wheel motion.

Disper is an on-the-fly display switch utility. It is intended to be used just
before giving a presentation with a laptop, when all one wants is that the
beamer, which has just been connected, is able to show whatever you prepared.

Disper gives you the option to either clone all detected displays, or extend
the desktop to them. Resolutions are automatically detected. For cloning, the
highest common resolution supported by all displays is chosen; for extending
every display device gets its highest supported resolution. For special setups
requiring more detailed control, one can still use the standard display
configuration utilities.

At the moment nVidia cards are supported, and a basic XRandR backend is in
place.
