338 root 1.121 stableperl list(perl) modules()
339 root 1.120 Stableperl is a fork, or a branch, of the official perl with the goal
340     of providing stability and compatibility. See <a
341     href="http://stableperl.schmorp.de/">stableperl.schmorp.de</a> for
342     details.
343    
344 root 1.121 You can also look at the <a href="http://schplog.schmorp.de/2015-06-06-stableperl-faq.html">Canary::Stability and Stableperl FAQ</a>, and you can download
345     releases at <a href="http://stableperl.schmorp.de/dist/">http://stableperl.schmorp.de/dist/</a>.

353 root 1.73 rxvt-unicode is a fork of the well known terminal emulator rxvt.
354 elmex 1.1
355     <p>If you have a problem, please have a look at the
356     <a href="http://cvs.schmorp.de/rxvt-unicode/doc/rxvt.7.html">FAQ</a>
357     <em>first</em>.</p>
358    
359     Its main features (many of them unique) over rxvt are:
360    
361     <ul>
362     <li>Stores text in Unicode (either UCS-2 or UCS-4).</li>
363     <li>Uses locale-correct input, output and width: as long as your system supports the locale,
364     rxvt-unicode will display correctly.</li>

418    
419     Most terminal emulators nowadays strive to emulate a DEC VT102
420     terminal (even those claiming to emulate a VT100 usually mean
421     VT102). Unfortunately, even though there are some VT100 simulators,
422     there haven't been any DEC VT102 ones, so it was very hard to test
423     compatibility with the real device.
424    
425     Thanks to this simulator, one can now test how the "real" VT102 behaves,
426     and as free extra, it also simulates DEC VT100 and DEC VT131 terminals.

489     and only provided as reference.
490

495     It could be used to write Knuddels clients, bots and even servers

509     This small low-level module only has one purpose: pass a file descriptor
510     to another process, using a (streaming) unix domain socket (on POSIX
511     systems) or any (streaming) socket (on WIN32 systems).
512    
513 root 1.101 Proc-FastSpawn cpan cvs-pod(FastSpawn.pm,) cvs-co(Changes)
514     fork+exec, or spawn, a subprocess as quickly as possible
515    
516     The purpose of this small (in scope and footprint) module is simple:
517     spawn a subprocess asynchronously as efficiently and/or fast as
518     possible. Basically the same as calling fork+exec (on POSIX), but
519     hopefully faster than those two syscalls.
520    
521     Apart from fork overhead, this module also allows you to fork+exec
522     programs when otherwise you couldn't - for example, when you use POSIX
523     threads in your perl process then it generally isn't safe to call
524     fork from perl, but it is safe to use this module to execute external
525     processes.

529    
530     This module allows you to create new processes, without actually forking
531     them from your current process (avoiding the problems of forking), but
532     preserving most of the advantages of fork.
533    
534     It can be used to create new worker processes or new independent
535     subprocesses for short- and long-running jobs, process pools (e.g. for
536     use in pre-forked servers) but also to spawn new external processes (such
537     as CGI scripts from a webserver), which can be faster (and more well
538     behaved) than using fork+exec in big processes.

542 root 1.105
543     Despite what the name of this module might suggest, it doesn't actually
544     create remote processes for you. But it does make it easy to use them,
545     once you have started them.
546    
547     This module implements a very similar API as AnyEvent::Fork. In fact,
548     similar enough to require at most minor modifications to support both
549     at the same time. For example, it works with AnyEvent::Fork::RPC and
550     AnyEvent::Fork::Pool.

552 root 1.104 AnyEvent-Fork-RPC cpan cvs-pod(RPC.pm,) cvs-co(Changes) list(anyevent) irc(anyevent)
553     Simple RPC extension for AnyEvent::Fork
554    
555     This module implements a simple RPC protocol and backend for processes
556 root 1.105 created via AnyEvent::Fork, allowing you to call a function in the
557 root 1.104 child process and receive its return values (up to 4GB serialised).
558    
559     It implements two different backends: a synchronous one that works like a
560     normal function call, and an asynchronous one that can run multiple jobs
561     concurrently in the child, using AnyEvent.
562    
563     It also implements an asynchronous event mechanism from the child to the
564     parent, that could be used for progress indications or other information.
565    
566     AnyEvent-Fork-Pool cpan cvs-pod(Pool.pm,) cvs-co(Changes) list(anyevent) irc(anyevent)
567     Simple process pool manager on top of AnyEvent::Fork and AnyEvent::Fork::RPC.
568    
569     This module uses processes created via AnyEvent::Fork and the RPC
570     protocol implement in AnyEvent::Fork::RPC to create a load-balanced pool
571     of processes that handles jobs.
572    
573     Understanding of AnyEvent::Fork is helpful but not critical to be able
574     to use this module, but a thorough understanding of AnyEvent::Fork::RPC
575     is, as it defines the actual API that needs to be implemented in the
576     children.

600     PApp-SQL cpan cvs-pod(SQL.pm,)
601     Absolutely easy yet fast and powerful SQL access.
602

604     complete with statement caching, so you get the efficiency of prepare, the safety
605     of using placeholders and the speed of bound result values in a simple call.
606    
607     Example:
608    
609     <pre>
610     my $st = sql_exec \my ($id, $name),
611     "select id, name from db where name like %",
612     "pfx%";

1087     A Perl module implementing an interface to BerkeleyDB versions 4.4 and later.
1088     Unlike the BerkeleyDB and DB_File modules, this module has a much more
1089     C-like interface exposing all the features of the underlying library
1090     and also executes all database changes asynchronously using a thread pool.
1091    
1092     IO-AIO cpan cvs-pod(AIO.pm,) cvs-co(Changes)
1093     A Perl module that implements asynchronous I/O using pthreads. Apart
1094     from AIO reading and writing, this module also allows asynchronous
1095     <tt>stat</tt>, <tt>open</tt>, <tt>unlink</tt> (and more) calls,
1096     which often are a substantial blocking problem. See also its (outdated)
1097     brother <tt>Linux-AIO</tt>.
1098    
1099     JSON-XS cpan cvs-pod(XS.pm,) cvs-co(Changes)
1100     JSON::XS implements JSON (http://www.json.org) for Perl. Unlike other
1101     modules, its primary goal is to encode to syntactically correct JSON and
1102     flag invalid JSON while decoding. It ensures round-trip integrity of
1103     datatypes while being intuitive to use. Currently being the fastest of the
1104     JSON encoders available for Perl, it supports a variety of format options,
1105     such as single-line, ASCII-only or pretty-printed and can be tuned for
1106     speed or memory usage. It comes with a wealth of documentation describing
1107     usage and implementation details.
1108    
1109 root 1.111 CBOR-XS cpan cvs-pod(XS.pm,) cvs-co(Changes)
1110     CBOR::XS implements the Concise Binary Object Representation (RFC 7049),
1111     which is a kind of "binary JSON" that also has the ability to cleanly
1112     serialise objects. Unlike other binary formats, CBOR is actually capable
1113     of representing all JSON texts, not just a subset of them.
1114    
1115 root 1.112 Types-Serialiser cpan cvs-pod(Serialiser.pm,) cvs-co(Changes)
1116 root 1.111 This module is an utility module that provides a few simple datatypes,
1117     constants and a serialisation protocol for CBOR::XS. It could be used
1118     for other, similar, serialisation modules (such as JSON::XS), and would
1119     improve interoperability between those modules.
1120    
1121 root 1.31 Games-Go-SimpleBoard cpan cvs-pod(SimpleBoard.pm,) cvs-co(Changes)
1122     A Perl module representing a go board.
1123    
1124     This Perl module represents a Go game. It can check for valid moves,
1125     capture stones, stores move history and can represent a variety of
1126     additional annotations (circles, labels, grayed-out stones etc.).
1127    
1128 root 1.68 Games-Sokoban cpan cvs-pod(Sokoban.pm,) cvs-co(Changes)
1129     A perl module to load/transform/save sokoban levels in various formats.
1130    
1131     Supports xsb (text), rle, sokevo and a small "binpack" format for input and
1132     output and can normalise levels as well as calculate unique IDs.
1133    
1134 root 1.31 Gtk2-GoBoard cpan cvs-pod(GoBoard.pm,) cvs-co(Changes)
1135     A Perl module implementing a go board widget.
1136    
1137     This Perl module implements a beautiful go board (see <a
1138     href="http://data.plan9.de/kgsuemel.jpg">example</a>), implemented as a
1139     Gtk2 widget.
1140    
1141 elmex 1.1 Linux-AIO cpan cvs-pod(AIO.pm,) cvs-co(Changes)
1142     A Perl module that implements asynchronous I/O using <tt>clone</tt>
1143     on Linux. Apart from AIO reading and writing, this module also allows
1144     asynchronous <tt>stat</tt>, <tt>open</tt> and <tt>close</tt> (and more)
1145     calls, which often are a substantial problem. See also its (newer) brother
1146     <tt>IO-AIO</tt>.
1147    
1148     Linux-Inotify2 cpan cvs-pod(Inotify2.pm,) cvs-co(Changes)
1149     A better/less buggy/more portable interface to the Linux Inotify
1150     subsystem then what Linux::Inotify has to offer. Inotify lets you receive
1151     file change, create, move etc. events for directories in files in a more
1152     scalable fashion than dnotify, the older mechanism.
1153    
1154     Linux-NBD cpan cvs-pod(lib/Linux/NBD.pm) cvs-pod(lib/Linux/NBD/Client.pm) cvs-pod(lib/Linux/NBD/Server.pm) cvs-co(Changes)
1155     A Perl module that helps implementing netblock block device servers and
1156     set up NBD instances. A sample application allowing you to mount most CD
1157     images is included.
1158    
1159 root 1.90 Linux-Clone cpan cvs-pod(Clone.pm) cvs-co(Changes)

1161    
1162 root 1.92 Urlader cpan cvs-pod(Urlader.pm) cvs-co(Changes)
1163     A self-unpacking archive that can be used for program deployment and upgrades.
1164    
1165     Much like PAR, this module provides a simple way to build (silently) self-extracting
1166     executables that can contain perl, modules and shared libraries. Unlike PAR it is not
1167     restricted to perl programs, works transparently, without any magic and can cache
1168     unpacked archives for extra speed. Also unlike PAR, it leaves you out in the cold
1169     on the problem of how to atcually gather your files into the distribution.

1230 root 1.32 fcrackzip cvs-co(fcrackzip.html)
1231     <b>fcrackzip</b> is a zip password cracker, similar to fzc, zipcrack and others.
1232    
1233     <h3>Why, the hell, another zip cracker?</h3>
1234    
1235     Naturally, programs are born out of an actual need. The situation with
1236     fcrackzip was no different... I'm not using zip very much, but recently
1237     I needed a password cracker. "Sure", I thought, "there are hundreds of
1238     them out there, I'll just gonna get one!". This wasn't so easy, in fact,
1239     none of the zipcrackers I found were able to find the passwords, either
1240     they didn't accept more than one zipfile, were awfully slow, or didn't do
1241     brute force attacks (which I needed). The worst thing was: no source!.
1242    
1243     <h3>Why is <i>no source</i> such a bad thing?</h3>
1244    
1245     [insert big chapter about the free software spirit here ;)], anyway
1246     people will never learn... You will find reasons why it's much better to
1247     provide source to your programs here, at opensource.org, and here, at the
1248     Free Software Foundation. Now, what are the features of fcrackzip?
1249    
1250     <ul><li>
1251     <p>FREE</p>
1252    
1253     <p>It doesn't cost anything, it will run on many architectures, and
1254     the source is freely available, so you can customise it to your
1255     needs. If you make improvements, don't hesitate to mail them to me,
1256     and I will include them in fcrackzip!</p>
1257    
1258     <p>One goal of fcrackzip was to provide a free but still fast
1259     zipcracker, so that other people can improve and contribute it
1260     further, in an open developement style.</p>
1261    
1262     <p>Other programs, like fzc, come not only without source, but the
1263     executable is even encrypted, so improving it or customizing it is
1264     difficult at best. (Maybe the programmers of other crackers don't
1265     want that people see how crappy their code actually is? Nobody
1266     knows for sure, but I see no other reason for this strange, but
1267     common, behaviour)</p>
1268    
1269     </li><li>
1270     <p>FAST</p>
1271    
1272     <p>On my old machine (a pentium-90), the portable C version is 12%
1273     slower than fzc, the fastest cracker I could find. Small parts of
1274     fcrackzip have been converted to x86 assembly, so it performs a bit
1275     faster (around 4%) than fzc now, on the same hardware (note: this
1276     is highly os/compiler dependent). Since the author of fzc claims
1277     that it is written fully in assembler, further improvements might
1278     well be possible. Incidently, on my new P-II machine, fcrackzip is
1279     almost twice as fast as fzc ;)</p>
1280    
1281     </li><li>
1282     <p>PORTABLE</p>
1283    
1284     <p>fcrackzip was written in ISO-C, and should run on most platforms,
1285     even 64 bit ones (maybe after some tweaking). I'll be glad to hear
1286     about portability problems so I can fix them.</p>
1287    
1288     </li><li>
1289     <p>FEATUREFUL</p>
1290    
1291     <p>fcrackzip will, at some later stage at least, support many more
1292     useful operation modes than other crackers. It already supports
1293     multiple zip files with multiple files. Remember that the code is
1294     only a few hours old!</p>
1295    
1296     <p>However, since version 0.2.0 fcrackzip also includes a mode to
1297     brute force cpmask'ed images, something no other program (that I
1298     know of) can do, so at least there is one feature other crackers
1299     don't have.</p>
1300    
1301     <p>And you can always implement your own modes.</p>
1302    
1303     </li></ul>
1304    
1305     <h3>Caveat, Imperator!</h3>
1306    
1307     <p>Naturally, there are also some drawbacks. At the moment, fcrackzip
1308     is a bit slower than necessary, and lacks some important (or nice)
1309     features, like automatic unzip-testing and others. On the other hand,
1310     fcrackzip-0.0.1 was hacked together in under ten hours, and you can
1311     always modify the source (and send me patches!!!) (I hope I've made it
1312     clear now ;)</p>
