479 <p>In addition to the event core (which might be all you need), AnyEvent
480 comes with an optional, fully asynchronous, pure-perl DNS resolver

517 It should generally be a "good client" that is enough for most HTTP
518 tasks. Simple tasks should be simple, but complex tasks should still be
519 possible as the user retains control over request and response headers.

862fcrackzip cvs-co(fcrackzip.html)
863 <b>fcrackzip</b> is a zip password cracker, similar to fzc, zipcrack and others.
864
865 <h3>Why, the hell, another zip cracker?</h3>
866
867 Naturally, programs are born out of an actual need. The situation with
868 fcrackzip was no different... I'm not using zip very much, but recently
869 I needed a password cracker. "Sure", I thought, "there are hundreds of
870 them out there, I'll just gonna get one!". This wasn't so easy, in fact,
871 none of the zipcrackers I found were able to find the passwords, either
872 they didn't accept more than one zipfile, were awfully slow, or didn't do
873 brute force attacks (which I needed). The worst thing was: no source!.
874
875 <h3>Why is <i>no source</i> such a bad thing?</h3>
876
877 [insert big chapter about the free software spirit here ;)], anyway
878 people will never learn... You will find reasons why it's much better to
879 provide source to your programs here, at opensource.org, and here, at the
880 Free Software Foundation. Now, what are the features of fcrackzip?
881
882 <ul><li>
883 <p>FREE</p>
884
885 <p>It doesn't cost anything, it will run on many architectures, and
886 the source is freely available, so you can customise it to your
887 needs. If you make improvements, don't hesitate to mail them to me,
888 and I will include them in fcrackzip!</p>
889
890 <p>One goal of fcrackzip was to provide a free but still fast
891 zipcracker, so that other people can improve and contribute it
892 further, in an open developement style.</p>
893
894 <p>Other programs, like fzc, come not only without source, but the
895 executable is even encrypted, so improving it or customizing it is
896 difficult at best. (Maybe the programmers of other crackers don't
897 want that people see how crappy their code actually is? Nobody
898 knows for sure, but I see no other reason for this strange, but
899 common, behaviour)</p>
900
901 </li><li>
902 <p>FAST</p>
903
904 <p>On my old machine (a pentium-90), the portable C version is 12%
905 slower than fzc, the fastest cracker I could find. Small parts of
906 fcrackzip have been converted to x86 assembly, so it performs a bit
907 faster (around 4%) than fzc now, on the same hardware (note: this
908 is highly os/compiler dependent). Since the author of fzc claims
909 that it is written fully in assembler, further improvements might
910 well be possible. Incidently, on my new P-II machine, fcrackzip is
911 almost twice as fast as fzc ;)</p>
912
913 </li><li>
914 <p>PORTABLE</p>
915
916 <p>fcrackzip was written in ISO-C, and should run on most platforms,
917 even 64 bit ones (maybe after some tweaking). I'll be glad to hear
918 about portability problems so I can fix them.</p>
919
920 </li><li>
921 <p>FEATUREFUL</p>
922
923 <p>fcrackzip will, at some later stage at least, support many more
924 useful operation modes than other crackers. It already supports
925 multiple zip files with multiple files. Remember that the code is
926 only a few hours old!</p>
927
928 <p>However, since version 0.2.0 fcrackzip also includes a mode to
929 brute force cpmask'ed images, something no other program (that I
930 know of) can do, so at least there is one feature other crackers
931 don't have.</p>
932
933 <p>And you can always implement your own modes.</p>
934
935 </li></ul>
936
937 <h3>Caveat, Imperator!</h3>
938
939 <p>Naturally, there are also some drawbacks. At the moment, fcrackzip
940 is a bit slower than necessary, and lacks some important (or nice)
941 features, like automatic unzip-testing and others. On the other hand,
942 fcrackzip-0.0.1 was hacked together in under ten hours, and you can
943 always modify the source (and send me patches!!!) (I hope I've made it
944 clear now ;)</p>

949 <p>lsys is a full-featured program that understands most of the syntax
950 of the original l-systems language, which is far more complex and
951 powerful than most available l-system interpreters.</p>
