343 rxvt-unicode dist list(rxvt-unicode) cvs-pod(doc/rxvt.1.pod,) cvs-pod(doc/rxvt.7.pod,FAQ) cvs-pod(src/urxvt.pm,Perl) cvs-co(Changes) irc(rxvt) irc(rxvtdev)
344 rxvt-unicode is a fork of the well known terminal emulator rxvt.
345
346 <p>If you have a problem, please have a look at the
347 <a href="http://cvs.schmorp.de/rxvt-unicode/doc/rxvt.7.html">FAQ</a>
348 <em>first</em>.</p>
349
350 Its main features (many of them unique) over rxvt are:
351
352 <ul>
353 <li>Stores text in Unicode (either UCS-2 or UCS-4).</li>
354 <li>Uses locale-correct input, output and width: as long as your system supports the locale,
355 rxvt-unicode will display correctly.</li>
356 <li>Daemon mode: one daemon can open multiple windows on multiple displays, which
357 improves memory usage and startup time considerably.</li>
358 <li>Embedded perl, for endless customization and improvement opportunities, such as:
359 <ul>
360 <li>Tabbed terminal support.</li>
361 <li>Regex-driven customisable selection that can properly select shell arguments, urls etc.</li>
362 <li>Selection-transformation and option popup menus.</li>
363 <li>Automatically transforming the selection once made.</li>
364 <li>Incremental scrollback buffer search.</li>
365 <li>Automatic URL-underlining and launching.</li>
366 <li>Remote pastebin, digital clock, block graphics to ascii filter and
367 whatever you like to implement for yourself.</li>
368 </ul>
369 </li>
370 <li>Crash-free. At least I try, but rxvt-unicode certainly crashes much less often than
371 rxvt and its many forks, and reproducible bugs get fixed immediately.</li>
372 <li>Completely flicker-free.</li>
373 <li>Re-wraps long lines instead of splitting or cutting them on resizes.</li>
374 <li>Full combining character support (unlike xterm :).</li>
375 <li>Multiple fonts supported at the same time: No need to choose between
376 nice japanese and ugly latin, or no japanese and nice latin characters :).</li>
377 <li>Supports Xft and core fonts in any combination.</li>
378 <li>Can easily be embedded into other applications.</li>
379 <li>All documentation accessible through manpages.</li>
380 <li>Locale-independent XIM support.</li>
381 <li>Many small improvements, such as improved and corrected terminfo, improved secondary screen modes,
382 italic and bold font support, tinting and shading.</li>
383 <li>Encapsulation of privileged operations in a separate process (improves security).</li>
384 <li>Optimised for local <i>and</i> remote connections.</li>
385 </ul>
386
387 <br />
388 And its main <em>missing</em> features (which users request but are not (yet?) implemented) are:
389
390 <ul>
391 <li>Complex script support, such as arabic or tibetian - more info is needed. (use mlterm)</li>
392 <li>Right-to-Left rendering - more info is needed. (use mlterm)</li>
393 <li>IIIMF (Intranet/Internet Input Method Framework) support. (use scim)</li>
394 </ul>
395
396 <br />
397
398 There is an IRC channel for discussion on <a
399 href='irc://irc.freenode.net/rxvt-unicode'><tt>irc.freenode.net
400 #rxvt-unicode</tt></a>.
401
402 libptytty dist list(rxvt-unicode) cvs-pod(doc/libptytty.3.pod) cvs-co(Changes)
403 libptytty is an offspring of rxvt-unicode that handles pty/tty/utmp/wtmp/lastlog handling
404 in mostly OS-independent ways, so it's less of a hassle for you :)
405
406 gtkbfc cvs-pod(README)
407 Gtk+ bash file chooser replacement.
408
409 <b>gtkbfc</b> is a hack that replaces the dreaded, slow and hard-to-use GTK+
410 file chooser by a rxvt-unicode window with a little script that lets you use
411 readline tab-completion to enter filenames.
412
413 Again, its a dire hack and will not work with all programs. It does work
414 for gimp, firefox, gedit at least, though.
415
416 Async-Interrupt cpan cvs-pod(Interrupt.pm,) cvs-co(Changes) list(anyevent) irc(anyevent)
417 Allow C/XS libraries to interrupt perl asynchronously.
418
419 This is a module implementing a rarely-needed, very advanced technique
420 to interrupt a running perl interpreter from another thread, or similar,
421 context, at very low overhead.
422
423 CV cpan cvs-pod(bin/cv,) cvs-co(Changes)
424 Gtk2::CV is a perl module that implements an image viewer.
425
426 It comes with its own demo app, named <tt>cv</tt>, which is loosely
427 modeled after the classic <tt>xv</tt>, although it displays images much
428 faster than the great original. Stable releases are also found on CPAN.
429
430 kgsueme cpan list(kgsueme) cvs-co(Changes)
431 This perl module is about reverse engineering the
432 <a href="http://cvs.schmorp.de/kgsueme/doc/protocol.html">protocol</a>
433 (<a href="http://cvs.schmorp.de/kgsueme/doc/protocol.xml">xml source</a>)
434 of the popular <a href="http://kgs.kiseido.com">Kiseido Go Server</a>.
435
436 It features a sample Gtk+2 client (<a
437 href="http://kgsueme.schmorp.de/screenshot.jpg">screenshot</a>), a gtp
438 and a igs interface. It mostly focuses on documenting the protocol and
439 delivering a stable reference implementation which makes it easy to write
440 your own clients, bots and so on. It also contains Gtk2 modules for
441 KGS-independent rendering of beautiful Go boards. For a introduction to
442 the game of go, look <a href="http://playgo.to/interactive/">here</a>.
443
444 App-Staticperl cpan cvs-pod(bin/staticperl,) cvs-co(Changes)
445 Perl, libc, 100 modules - all in one self-contained 500kb executable.
446
447 App::Staticperl installs a helper script that allows you to install a
448 statically linked (or linkable) perl distribution, install additional
449 modules, and create new perl interpreters with just the selection of
450 modules you need. It is also possible to just create the C source files
451 needed to embed this custom interpreter into your own programs.<p />
452
453 Two pre-built perl binaries (for Linux on x86 or amd64) which
454 include some highly subjective package selections are available as
455 <a href="http://staticperl.schmorp.de/smallperl.html">smallperl</a>
456 and
457 <a href="http://staticperl.schmorp.de/bigperl.html">bigperl</a>.
458
459 Net-Knuddels cvs-pod(Net/Knuddels.pm,)
460 This perl module provides an API for group communications using the
461 <a href="http://www.knuddels.de/">www.knuddels.de</a> protocol. It is outdated
462 and only provided as reference.
463
464 This module implements the knuddels.de chat protocol. Since it was created
465 the protocol changed in unknown ways, so this module no longer works. It is
466 provided as reference, though, in case the protocol didn't change much,
467 so one can learn about the protocol.
468 It could be used to write Knuddels clients, bots and even servers
469 (although the latter doesn't make much sense, the protocol is rather
470 ugly. If you want to implement your own group communication server, use
471 IRC instead).
472
473 AnyEvent-IRC cpan-elmex git-pod(lib/AnyEvent/IRC.pm,) git-co(Changes) git-co(samples/anyeventirccl) git-co(samples/anyeventirc) list(anyevent) irc(anyevent)
474 This module provides an alternative to the Net-IRC and Net-IRC2
475 modules. Its design rationale is offering a 100% non-blocking
476 callback-based interface, RFC-compliant parsing and a lightweight
477 approach to modularity and reusability.
478
479 AnyEvent-ReadLine-Gnu cpan cvs-pod(Gnu.pm,) list(anyevent) irc(anyevent)
480 This is a small interface to Term::ReadLine::Gnu for event-based programs.
481
482 This module has event-based readline, as well as asynchronous message printing
483 with readline figured out for you.
484
485 Proc-FastSpawn cpan cvs-pod(FastSpawn.pm,) cvs-co(Changes)
486 fork+exec, or spawn, a subprocess as quickly as possible
487
488 The purpose of this small (in scope and footprint) module is simple:
489 spawn a subprocess asynchronously as efficiently and/or fast as
490 possible. Basically the same as calling fork+exec (on POSIX), but
491 hopefully faster than those two syscalls.
492
493 Apart from fork overhead, this module also allows you to fork+exec
494 programs when otherwise you couldn't - for example, when you use POSIX
495 threads in your perl process then it generally isn't safe to call
496 fork from perl, but it is safe to use this module to execute external
497 processes.
498
499 AnyEvent-Fork cpan cvs-pod(Fork.pm,) cvs-pod(Fork/Early.pm) cvs-pod(Fork/Template) cvs-co(Changes)
500 Everything you wanted to use fork() for, but couldn't.
501
502 This module allows you to create new processes, without actually forking
503 them from your current process (avoiding the problems of forking), but
504 preserving most of the advantages of fork.
505
506 It can be used to create new worker processes or new independent
507 subprocesses for short- and long-running jobs, process pools (e.g. for
508 use in pre-forked servers) but also to spawn new external processes (such
509 as CGI scripts from a webserver), which can be faster (and more well
510 behaved) than using fork+exec in big processes.
511
512 Guard cpan cvs-pod(Guard.pm,) cvs-co(Changes)
513 This small module implements scope and object guards, that is, code blocks
514 that are executed when a scope is being exited (or an object is destroyed).
515
516 Much effort was invested into these guards behaving "sensibly" in the
517 presence of thrown exceptions, errors and other adverse conditions, as
518 well as into good performance.
519
520 OpenCL cpan cvs-pod(OpenCL.pm,) cvs-co(Changes)
521 An interface to OpenCL (the Open Computing Language) for Perl.
522
523 Perlized (not C-ish) OpenCL interface.
524
525 common-sense cpan cvs-pod(sense.pm,) cvs-co(Changes)
526 This module implements some sane defaults for Perl programs, as defined
527 by two typical (or not so typical - use your common sense) specimens of
528 Perl coders.
529
530 Net-IRC-Server cvs-pod(Net/IRC/Server.pm,)
531 This module provides a simple API for handling the IRC Protocol
532 aiming at implementing lightweight IRC-Servers.
533
534 PApp-SQL cpan cvs-pod(SQL.pm,)
535 Absolutely easy yet fast and powerful SQL access.
536
537 This module wraps the DBI prepare/bind/execute calls into a single "sql_exec" call,
538 complete with statement caching, so you get the efficiency of prepare, the safety
539 of using placeholders and the speed of bound result values in a simple call.
540
541 Example:
542
543 <pre>
544 my $st = sql_exec \my ($id, $name),
545 "select id, name from db where name like %",
546 "pfx%";
547 while ($st->fetch) {
548 print "$id $name\n";
549 }
550 </pre>
551
552 libcoro cvs-co(README) cvs-co(coro.h)
553 This C-library implements coroutines (cooperative multitasking) in a
554 portable fashion.
555
556 As long as your system implements the <tt>ucontext</tt> (Unix) or the
557 older <tt>sigaltstack</tt> interfaces it should work out of the box,
558 with minimal configuration (it consists of only a single <tt>.h</tt> and
559 a single <tt>.c</tt> file). For the broken systems, it also supports
560 a slow pthreads-based system and (optional) assembly backends for
561 higher speed on some systems. It is known to run on a wide variety of
562 unix systems (SunOS, IRIX, GNU/Linux, HP-UX, FreeBSD, NetBSD, OpenBSD)
563 and also on Windows, does not require any assembly language and is
564 architecture-independent.

616
617 Faster cpan cvs-pod(Faster.pm,)
618 A perl module that makes perl run, well, faster, using a very primitive just in time compiler.
619
620 As the name implies, using this module makes your perl program run
621 faster. Actually, much slower initially, as it compiles every function
622 to C and later to a shared object, but then you can expect a performance
623 increase by 10-50%, depending on what your program does.
624
625 liblzf cvs-co(README) cvs-co(lzf.h) dist
626 LibLZF is a very small data compression library.
627
628 It consists of only two .c and two .h files and is very easy to
629 incorporate into your own programs. The compression algorithm is very,
630 very fast, yet still written in portable C. More info and the latest

648 Algorithm-FEC cpan cvs-pod(FEC.pm,) cvs-co(README.fec) cvs-co(Changes)
649 Perl module implementing forward error correction using Vandermonde matrices
650
651 AnyEvent cpan cvs-pod(lib/AnyEvent.pm,) cvs-pod(lib/AnyEvent/Intro.pod,Introduction/Tutorial) cvs-pod(lib/AE.pm,AE) cvs-co(Changes) cvs-pod(lib/AnyEvent/IO.pm,AnyEvent::IO) cvs-pod(lib/AnyEvent/Util.pm,AnyEvent::Util) cvs-pod(lib/AnyEvent/Handle.pm,AnyEvent::Handle) cvs-pod(lib/AnyEvent/Socket.pm,AnyEvent::Socket) cvs-pod(lib/AnyEvent/DNS.pm,AnyEvent::DNS) cvs-pod(lib/AnyEvent/Impl/EV.pm,AnyEvent::Impl::EV) cvs-pod(lib/AnyEvent/Impl/Event.pm,AnyEvent::Impl::Event) cvs-pod(lib/AnyEvent/Impl/Glib.pm,AnyEvent::Impl::Glib) cvs-pod(lib/AnyEvent/Impl/Tk.pm,AnyEvent::Impl::Tk) cvs-pod(lib/AnyEvent/Impl/Perl.pm,AnyEvent::Impl::Perl) cvs-pod(lib/AnyEvent/Impl/Qt.pm,AnyEvent::Impl::Qt) cvs-pod(lib/AnyEvent/Impl/EventLib.pm,AnyEvent::Impl::EventLib) cvs-pod(lib/AnyEvent/Impl/Irssi.pm,AnyEvent::Impl::Irssi) cvs-pod(lib/AnyEvent/Impl/IOAsync.pm,AnyEvent::Impl::IOAsync) cvs-pod(lib/AnyEvent/Impl/POE.pm,AnyEvent::Impl::POE) list(anyevent) irc(anyevent)
652 This module offers a simple API for I/O, timer, signal, child process
653 and completion events, independent of a specific event loop.
654
655 <p>This module allows module authors to use those events internally
656 without forcing users of the module to use a specific event loop, without
657 adding noticable overhead. Currently supported event loops are EV, Event,
658 Glib/Gtk2, Tk, Qt, Event::Lib, Irssi, IO::Async and POE (and thus also
659 WxWidgets and Prima). It also comes with a very fast (see benchmarks in
660 the main manual page) Pure Perl event loop and doesn't rely on XS, which
661 ensures that your program will always run even when no C-based event loop
662 is available.</p>
663
664 <p>In addition to the event core (which might be all you need), AnyEvent
665 comes with an optional, fully asynchronous, pure-perl DNS resolver
666 library supporting UDP, TCP and EDNS0, with many utility functions to
667 "just resolve" stuff without having to instantiate even a resolver object
668 (and including an equivalent of C<getaddrinfo>).</p>
669
670 <p>The AnyEvent::Socket offers utility functions to make handling TCP
671 connections (100% non-blocking, including DNS resolution, with both IPv4
672 and IPv6) and addresses as easy as possible, to the point of making IPv6
673 completely transparent.</p>
674
675 <p>Lastly, AnyEvent::Handle offers a powerful framework for asynchronous and
676 buffered protocol handling. You can push multiple read event handlers
677 to parse your protocol and start TLS/SSL negotiation transparently (and
678 fully non-blocking) at any time, in both server and client mode.</p>
679
680 AnyEvent-FastPing cpan cvs-pod(FastPing.pm,) list(anyevent) irc(anyevent)
681 This module implements a very fast and relatively flexible
682 ping (ping as in icmp echo request).
683
684 This module allows you to quickly send ipv4 and ipv6 pings at a defined
685 rate to whole address ranges. It is fully event-driven (doesn't block
686 the perl interpreter) and can easily generate hundreds of thousands of
687 pings per second. Target specification is done by specifying one or
688 more address ranges, to which pings will be distributed according to a
689 least-load principle.
690
691 A command line utility (<tt>fastping</tt>) is included.
692
693 AnyEvent-AIO cpan cvs-pod(AIO.pm,) list(anyevent) irc(anyevent)
694 A perl module providing transparent integration of IO::AIO into AnyEvent.
695

701
702 AnyEvent-DBI cpan cvs-pod(DBI.pm,) list(anyevent) irc(anyevent)
703 A perl module providing an asynchronous DBI interface for AnyEvent.
704
705 This module provides an asynchronous DBI interface for AnyEvent by
706 starting one or more proxy processes that handle trhe actual sql
707 commands.
708
709 AnyEvent-FCP cpan cvs-pod(FCP.pm,) list(anyevent) irc(anyevent)
710 A perl module implementing a Freenet Client Protocol 2.0 client.
711
712 AnyEvent-GPSD cpan cvs-pod(GPSD.pm,) list(anyevent) irc(anyevent)
713 A perl module implementing an AnyEvent client for the (pre-xml) GPSD protocol.
714
715 AnyEvent-Porttracker cpan cvs-pod(Porttracker.pm,) cvs-pod(Porttracker/protocol.pod,api-protocol) list(anyevent) irc(anyevent)
716 A perl module implementing a client for the Porttracker/PortIQ API protocol.
717
718 AnyEvent-SNMP cpan cvs-pod(SNMP.pm,) list(anyevent) irc(anyevent)
719 A perl module that transparently integrates Net::SNMP into AnyEvent.
720
721 In addition to making Net::SNMP AnyEvent-aware, this module also
722 implements advanced rate-limiting that enables you to query many devices
723 in parallel without running into timeouts due to high CPU usage.
724
725 AnyEvent-Watchdog cpan cvs-pod(Watchdog.pm,) list(anyevent) irc(anyevent)
726 A perl module implementing a watchdog for Perl processes.
727
728 This module forks your Perl process early during it's startup. It can
729 automatically restart the program on crashes, provide clean restarts
730 requested by the watched program and a number of other small feats.
731
732 AnyEvent-HTTP cpan cvs-pod(HTTP.pm,) cvs-co(Changes) list(anyevent) irc(anyevent)
733 A simple and plain event based http and https client.
734
735 This module implements a simple, stateless and non-blocking HTTP
736 client. It supports GET, POST and other request methods, cookies and more,
737 all on a very low level. It can follow redirects supports proxies and
738 automatically limits the number of connections to the values specified in
739 the RFC.
740
741 It should generally be a "good client" that is enough for most HTTP
742 tasks. Simple tasks should be simple, but complex tasks should still be
743 possible as the user retains control over request and response headers.
744
745 The caller is responsible for authentication management, cookies (if
746 the simplistic implementation in this module doesn't suffice), referer
747 and other high-level protocol details for which this module offers only
748 limited support.
749
750 AnyEvent-MP cpan cvs-pod(MP.pm,) cvs-pod(MP/Intro.pod,Introduction/Tutorial) cvs-pod(bin/aemp,Config-Uility) cvs-pod(MP/Kernel.pm) cvs-pod(MP/Global.pm) cvs-pod(MP/Transport.pm) cvs-pod(MP/DataConn.pm) cvs-pod(MP/LogCatcher.pm) cvs-co(Changes) list(anyevent) irc(anyevent)
751 This Perl module (-family) implements a simple message passing framework for Perl.
752
753 Despite its simplicity, you can securely message other processes running
754 on the same or other hosts.
755
756 For an introduction to this module family, see the Intro manual page.
757
758 Coro-MP cpan cvs-pod(MP.pm,) cvs-co(Changes) list(anyevent) irc(anyevent)
759 This Perl module extends the AnyEvent::MP API with a thread-like/erlang-style API.
760
761 This module implements a thread-like API to AnyEvent::MP that is closer
762 to Erlang than the event-based AnyEvent::MP API. It integrates well into
763 AnyEvent::MP.
764
765 See the AnyEvent::MP module and tutorial for info about the concepts used
766 in AnyEvent::MP.
767
768 AnyEvent-DBI cpan cvs-pod(DBI.pm,) cvs-co(Changes) list(anyevent) irc(anyevent)
769 A relatively simple wrapper around DBI to make asynchronous
770 SQL requests.
771
772 This module implements asynchronous DBI access my forking or executing
773 separate "DBI-Server" processes and sending them requests.
774
775 It means that you can run DBI requests in parallel to other tasks.
776
777 AnyEvent-HTTPD cpan-elmex git-pod(lib/AnyEvent/HTTPD.pm,) git-co(Changes) list(anyevent) irc(anyevent)
778 A simple and plain event based http web application server Perl module.
779
780 This is a very basic HTTP server that allows the user/programmer to install
781 hooks for URL paths to generate the output. It uses AnyEvent to be easily
782 embeddable into other applications. The main objective was to make it
783 easier to make simple HTTP frontends in Perl for Perl programs and Perl modules.
784
785 AnyEvent-Feed cpan-elmex git-pod(lib/AnyEvent/Feed.pm,) git-co(Changes) list(anyevent) irc(anyevent)
786 A RSS/Atom Feed aggregator.
787
788 This module uses AnyEvent::HTTP and XML::Feed to fetch and parse RSS and Atom
789 feeds. It provides aggregation (detecting of new entries) to provide an easy
790 interface for simple feed readers.
791
792 AnyEvent-Twitter cpan-elmex git-pod(lib/AnyEvent/Twitter.pm,) git-co(Changes) list(anyevent) irc(anyevent)
793 Implementation of the Twitter API for AnyEvent.
794
795 Provides a simple non-blocking API to access information (aka tweets) provided
796 by <a href="http://www.twitter.com">Twitter</a>.

805 A Perl module which allows editing any text via an editor in a separate process.
806
807 A utility Perl module that will start a terminal/editor for you and will
808 wait non-blocking for you to finish editing that file. Very useful to embed
809 content edititing in event based programs that have a AnyEvent compatible
810 event loop.
811
812 Array-Heap cpan cvs-pod(Heap.pm,) cvs-co(Changes)
813 A Perl module that implements C++ STL-like binary heap operations.

840
841 Convert-UUlib cpan cvs-pod(UUlib.pm,) cvs-co(Changes)
842 Perl interface to the uulib library (a.k.a. uudeview/uuenview), which
843 allows easy decoding of multipart mime, uuencode and a whole lot of
844 differently encoded messages. You basically throw files at it, and
845 it extracts the files in them. This module is used by the popular <a

849 A large Perl module family that implements cooperative multitasking in
850 Perl. It supports filehandle and event abstraction and also implements
851 continuations as well as the necessary directives to implement a slightly
852 limited call/cc in Perl.
853
854 Coro-Mysql cpan cvs-co(Changes) cvs-pod(Mysql.pm,)
855 Lets other threads run while doing mysql requests via DBD::mysql.
856
857 This perl module patches libmysqlclient/DBD::mysql at runtime to allow
858 multiple Coro-based threads to make database accesses concurrently,
859 instead of blocking the whole process.
860
861 Crypt-Twofish2 cpan cvs-pod(Twofish2.pm,) cvs-co(Changes)
862 A Perl module implementing the twofish encryption algorithm in Perl. It has
863 mostly been superceded by the Crypt::Twofish module. However, it supports
864 an easy and fast CBC mode natively.
865

871 EV cpan cvs-pod(EV.pm,) cvs-pod(../libev/ev.pod,libev-documentation) cvs-pod(EV/MakeMaker.pm) cvs-co(Changes) list(libev)
872 A thin wrapper around <a href="/pkg/libev.html">libev</a>, a
873 high-performance event loop. Intended as a faster and less buggy
874 replacement for the Event perl module. Efficiently supports very high
875 number of timers, scalable operating system APIs such as epoll, kqueue,
876 solaris's ports, inotify, eventfd, signalfd, child/pid watchers and much
877 more.
878
879 A <a href="http://lists.schmorp.de/mailman/listinfo/libev">mailing
880 list</a> for discussion and support is now available.
881
882 EV-ADNS cpan cvs-pod(ADNS.pm,) cvs-co(Changes) list(libev)
883 An asynchronous stub resolver that integrates efficiently into
884 the EV event loop. Uses adns/libadns as backend.
885
886 EV-Loop-Async cpan cvs-pod(Async.pm,) cvs-co(Changes) list(libev)
887 Small module that runs an EV event loop in another thread
888 and uses an Async-Interrupt object to signal new events
889 to perl.
890
891 Net-SNMP-EV cpan cvs-pod(EV.pm,) cvs-co(Changes) list(libev)
892 An adaptor that integrates the Net-SNMP Perl module into the EV event loop.

894
895 libev cvs-co(README) cvs-pod(ev.pod) dist list(libev)
896 A full-featured and high-performance (<a
897 href="http://libev.schmorp.de/bench.html">see benchmark</a>)
898 event loop that is loosely modelled after libevent, but without
899 its limitations and bugs. It is used in
900 <a href="/pkg/gvpe.html">GNU Virtual Private Ethernet</a>,
901 <a href="/pkg/rxvt-unicode.html">rxvt-unicode</a>, <a
902 href="http://people.redhat.com/sgrubb/audit/">auditd</a>, the
903 <a href="http://www.deliantra.net">Deliantra MORPG</a> Server and Client,
904 and many other programs.
905
906 Features include child/pid watchers, periodic timers based on wallclock
907 (absolute) time (in addition to timers using relative timeouts), as well
908 as epoll/kqueue/event ports/inotify/eventfd/signalfd support, fast timer
909 management, time jump detection and correction, and ease-of-use.
910 <p />
911
912 It can be used as a libevent replacement using its emulation API or
913 directly embedded into your programs without the need for complex
914 configuration support. A full-featured and well-documented
915 <a href="EV.html">perl interface</a> is also available.

924 generally useful low-level functions, such as popcount, expect, prefetch,
925 noinline, assume, unreachable and so on.
926
927 gvpe dist-gnu
928 GVPE creates a virtual ethernet network with multiple nodes using a
929 variety of transport protocols. Participating nodes do not need to trust
930 each other.
931
932 GVPE creates a virtual ethernet (broadcasts supported, any protocol that
933 works with a normal ethernet should work with GVPE) by creating encrypted
934 host-to-host tunnels between multiple endpoints.
935 <p />
936 Unlike other virtual private "network" solutions which merely create a
937 single tunnel, GVPE creates a real network with multiple endpoints.
938 <p />
939 It is designed to be very simple and robust (cipher selection done at
940 compiletime etc.), and easy to setup (only a single config file shared
941 unmodified between all hosts).
942 <p />
943 VPN hosts can neither sniff nor fake packets, that is, you can use
944 MAC-based filtering to ensure authenticity of packets even from member
945 nodes.
946 <p />
947 GVPE can also be used to tunnel into some vpn network using a variety of
948 protocols (raw IP, UDP, TCP, HTTPS-proxy-connect, ICMP and DNS). It is,
949 however, primarily designed to sit on the gateway machines of company
950 branches to connect them together.

952 libeio dist cvs-pod(eio.pod,) cvs-co(eio.h) cvs-co(demo.c) cvs-co(Changes) list(libev)
953 Event-based fully asynchronous I/O library for C (used by IO::AIO).
954 Currently in BETA!
955
956 <p>Libeio is a full-featured asynchronous I/O library
957 for C, modelled in similar style and spirit as <a
958 href="http://software.schmorp.de/pkg/libev.html">libev</a>. Features
959 include: asynchronous read, write, open, close, stat, unlink, fdatasync,
960 mknod, readdir etc. (basically the full POSIX API). sendfile (native on
961 solaris, linux, hp-ux, freebsd, emulated everywehere else), readahead
962 (emulated where not available).</p>
963
964 <p>It is fully event-library agnostic and can easily be integrated into any
965 event-library (or used standalone, even in polling mode). It is very
966 portable and relies only on POSIX threads.</p>
967
968 <p>Its code, documentation, integration and portability quality is
969 currently below that of libev, but should soon be ready for use in
970 production environments.</p>
971
972 libspf cvs-co(README)
973 Libspf is a C library that implements the <a
974 href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sender_Policy_Framework"> Sender
975 Policy Framework</a>. It allows software to identify and reject forged
976 envelope-from addresses, a typical nuisance in e-mail spam. SPF is
977 defined in Experimental RFC 4408.
978
979 This is not the original home of libspf, but its author (apparently)
980 has vanished for a few years now, and this place took over as a central
981 place to collect patches and possibly make releases.
982 <p />
983 James Couzens, if you read this and want to take over, feel free to
984 contact <a href="mailto:libspf@schmorp.de">me</a>, I'd be thrilled :)
985
986 File-Rdiff cpan cvs-pod(Rdiff.pm,) cvs-co(Changes)

988 librsync: basically your interface to librsync.
989
990 EV-Glib cpan cvs-pod(Glib.pm,) cvs-co(Changes) list(libev)
991 This perl module embeds the default Glib mainloop into the EV event loop. This makes it
992 possible to use callbacks or modules using the Glib module (e.g. Gtk2 programs) within EV programs. Just
993 loading it suffices. See the <a href="/pkg/Glib-EV.html">Glib::EV</a> module for the reverse approach.
994
995 Glib-EV cpan cvs-pod(EV.pm,) cvs-co(Changes) list(libev)
996 This perl module patches the default libglib main loop context to use the EV module. This makes
997 it possible to use callbacks or modules using the EV module within Glib and Gtk2 programs. Just
998 loading it suffices. See the <a href="/pkg/EV-Glib.html">EV::Glib</a> module for the reverse approach.
999
1000 Glib-Event cpan cvs-pod(Event.pm,) cvs-co(Changes) list(libev)
1001 This perl module patches the default libglib main loop context to use the Event module. This makes
1002 it possible to use callbacks or modules using the Event module within Glib and Gtk2 programs. Just

1011 API. Also contains utility functions to decode SI data.
1012
1013 Devel-FindRef cpan cvs-pod(FindRef.pm,) cvs-co(Changes)
1014 A Perl module that tries to track down references to perl values. Can
1015 be a great aid in debugging leak problems by showing where a value
1016 is still being referenced.
1017
1018 BDB cpan cvs-pod(BDB.pm,) cvs-co(Changes)
1019 A Perl module implementing an interface to BerkeleyDB versions 4.4 and later.
1020 Unlike the BerkeleyDB and DB_File modules, this module has a much more
1021 C-like interface exposing all the features of the underlying library
1022 and also executes all database changes asynchronously using a thread pool.
1023
1024 IO-AIO cpan cvs-pod(AIO.pm,) cvs-co(Changes)
1025 A Perl module that implements asynchronous I/O using pthreads. Apart
1026 from AIO reading and writing, this module also allows asynchronous
1027 <tt>stat</tt>, <tt>open</tt>, <tt>unlink</tt> (and more) calls,
1028 which often are a substantial blocking problem. See also its (outdated)
1029 brother <tt>Linux-AIO</tt>.
1030
1031 JSON-XS cpan cvs-pod(XS.pm,) cvs-co(Changes)
1032 JSON::XS implements JSON (http://www.json.org) for Perl. Unlike other
1033 modules, its primary goal is to encode to syntactically correct JSON and
1034 flag invalid JSON while decoding. It ensures round-trip integrity of
1035 datatypes while being intuitive to use. Currently being the fastest of the
1036 JSON encoders available for Perl, it supports a variety of format options,
1037 such as single-line, ASCII-only or pretty-printed and can be tuned for
1038 speed or memory usage. It comes with a wealth of documentation describing
1039 usage and implementation details.
1040
1041 Games-Go-SimpleBoard cpan cvs-pod(SimpleBoard.pm,) cvs-co(Changes)
1042 A Perl module representing a go board.
1043
1044 This Perl module represents a Go game. It can check for valid moves,
1045 capture stones, stores move history and can represent a variety of
1046 additional annotations (circles, labels, grayed-out stones etc.).
1047
1048 Games-Sokoban cpan cvs-pod(Sokoban.pm,) cvs-co(Changes)
1049 A perl module to load/transform/save sokoban levels in various formats.

1055 A Perl module implementing a go board widget.
1056
1057 This Perl module implements a beautiful go board (see <a
1058 href="http://data.plan9.de/kgsuemel.jpg">example</a>), implemented as a
1059 Gtk2 widget.
1060
1061 Linux-AIO cpan cvs-pod(AIO.pm,) cvs-co(Changes)
1062 A Perl module that implements asynchronous I/O using <tt>clone</tt>
1063 on Linux. Apart from AIO reading and writing, this module also allows
1064 asynchronous <tt>stat</tt>, <tt>open</tt> and <tt>close</tt> (and more)
1065 calls, which often are a substantial problem. See also its (newer) brother
1066 <tt>IO-AIO</tt>.
1067
1068 Linux-Inotify2 cpan cvs-pod(Inotify2.pm,) cvs-co(Changes)
1069 A better/less buggy/more portable interface to the Linux Inotify
1070 subsystem then what Linux::Inotify has to offer. Inotify lets you receive
1071 file change, create, move etc. events for directories in files in a more
1072 scalable fashion than dnotify, the older mechanism.
1073
1074 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)

1079 Linux-Clone cpan cvs-pod(Clone.pm) cvs-co(Changes)
1080 A Perl interface to the clone(2) and unshare(2) syscalls.
1081
1082 Urlader cpan cvs-pod(Urlader.pm) cvs-co(Changes)
1083 A self-unpacking archive that can be used for program deployment and upgrades.
1084
1085 Much like PAR, this module provides a simple way to build (silently) self-extracting
1086 executables that can contain perl, modules and shared libraries. Unlike PAR it is not
1087 restricted to perl programs, works transparently, without any magic and can cache
1088 unpacked archives for extra speed. Also unlike PAR, it leaves you out in the cold
1089 on the problem of how to atcually gather your files into the distribution.
1090
1091 Mozilla-Plugin
1092 Undocumented, unreleased and unfinished-but-somewhat-working Perl plug-in
1093 for Mozilla (Netscape, Opera, IE...), that allows embedding Tk, Gtk etc.

1139 A personally hacked version of thttpd, suitable for lots of file
1140 transfers (normal thttpd has problems with this).
1141
1142 wvsniff
1143 Undocumented but nicely working wavelan sniffer that I wrote for use
1144 with my cisco aironet card. If you get it working, praise yourself.
1145
1146 dhcpping cvs-pod(dhcping.pod,)
1147 A version of dhcpping enhanced by <a href="mailto:marco@nethype.de">Marco Maisenhelder</a>
1148 to support passing dhcp options. Intended to test dhcp server implementations.

1150 Object-Event cpan-elmex git-pod(lib/Object/Event.pm,) git-co(Changes)
1151 A simple event callback API for Perl.
1152
1153 This is just a very simple event callback registration and call API
1154 which new Perl classes can inherit. It's mainly used by AnyEvent::XMPP.
1155
1156 psycpp git
1157 A project that was aimed to implement a PSYC server in C++.
1158
1159 This is a mostly abandoned project at the moment, however, the repository
1160 contains interesting C++ code that might be useful to someone, especially
1161 the C++ JSON implementation might be of interest. The project is mostly
1162 dead at the moment though...

1173 fcrackzip cvs-co(fcrackzip.html)
1174 <b>fcrackzip</b> is a zip password cracker, similar to fzc, zipcrack and others.
1175
1176 <h3>Why, the hell, another zip cracker?</h3>
1177
1178 Naturally, programs are born out of an actual need. The situation with
1179 fcrackzip was no different... I'm not using zip very much, but recently
1180 I needed a password cracker. "Sure", I thought, "there are hundreds of
1181 them out there, I'll just gonna get one!". This wasn't so easy, in fact,
1182 none of the zipcrackers I found were able to find the passwords, either
1183 they didn't accept more than one zipfile, were awfully slow, or didn't do
1184 brute force attacks (which I needed). The worst thing was: no source!.
1185
1186 <h3>Why is <i>no source</i> such a bad thing?</h3>
1187
1188 [insert big chapter about the free software spirit here ;)], anyway
1189 people will never learn... You will find reasons why it's much better to
1190 provide source to your programs here, at opensource.org, and here, at the
1191 Free Software Foundation. Now, what are the features of fcrackzip?
1192
1193 <ul><li>
1194 <p>FREE</p>
1195
1196 <p>It doesn't cost anything, it will run on many architectures, and
1197 the source is freely available, so you can customise it to your
1198 needs. If you make improvements, don't hesitate to mail them to me,
1199 and I will include them in fcrackzip!</p>
1200
1201 <p>One goal of fcrackzip was to provide a free but still fast
1202 zipcracker, so that other people can improve and contribute it
1203 further, in an open developement style.</p>
1204
1205 <p>Other programs, like fzc, come not only without source, but the
1206 executable is even encrypted, so improving it or customizing it is
1207 difficult at best. (Maybe the programmers of other crackers don't
1208 want that people see how crappy their code actually is? Nobody
1209 knows for sure, but I see no other reason for this strange, but
1210 common, behaviour)</p>
1211
1212 </li><li>
1213 <p>FAST</p>
1214
1215 <p>On my old machine (a pentium-90), the portable C version is 12%
1216 slower than fzc, the fastest cracker I could find. Small parts of
1217 fcrackzip have been converted to x86 assembly, so it performs a bit
1218 faster (around 4%) than fzc now, on the same hardware (note: this
1219 is highly os/compiler dependent). Since the author of fzc claims
1220 that it is written fully in assembler, further improvements might
1221 well be possible. Incidently, on my new P-II machine, fcrackzip is
1222 almost twice as fast as fzc ;)</p>
1223
1224 </li><li>
1225 <p>PORTABLE</p>
1226
1227 <p>fcrackzip was written in ISO-C, and should run on most platforms,
1228 even 64 bit ones (maybe after some tweaking). I'll be glad to hear
1229 about portability problems so I can fix them.</p>
1230
1231 </li><li>
1232 <p>FEATUREFUL</p>
1233
1234 <p>fcrackzip will, at some later stage at least, support many more
1235 useful operation modes than other crackers. It already supports
1236 multiple zip files with multiple files. Remember that the code is
1237 only a few hours old!</p>
1238
1239 <p>However, since version 0.2.0 fcrackzip also includes a mode to
1240 brute force cpmask'ed images, something no other program (that I
1241 know of) can do, so at least there is one feature other crackers
1242 don't have.</p>
1243
1244 <p>And you can always implement your own modes.</p>
1245
1246 </li></ul>
1247
1248 <h3>Caveat, Imperator!</h3>
1249
1250 <p>Naturally, there are also some drawbacks. At the moment, fcrackzip
1251 is a bit slower than necessary, and lacks some important (or nice)
1252 features, like automatic unzip-testing and others. On the other hand,
1253 fcrackzip-0.0.1 was hacked together in under ten hours, and you can
1254 always modify the source (and send me patches!!!) (I hope I've made it
1255 clear now ;)</p>
