344 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)
345 rxvt-unicode is a fork of the well known terminal emulator rxvt.
346
347 <p>If you have a problem, please have a look at the
348 <a href="http://cvs.schmorp.de/rxvt-unicode/doc/rxvt.7.html">FAQ</a>
349 <em>first</em>.</p>
350
351 Its main features (many of them unique) over rxvt are:
352
353 <ul>
354 <li>Stores text in Unicode (either UCS-2 or UCS-4).</li>
355 <li>Uses locale-correct input, output and width: as long as your system supports the locale,
356 rxvt-unicode will display correctly.</li>
357 <li>Daemon mode: one daemon can open multiple windows on multiple displays, which
358 improves memory usage and startup time considerably.</li>
359 <li>Embedded perl, for endless customization and improvement opportunities, such as:
360 <ul>
361 <li>Tabbed terminal support.</li>
362 <li>Regex-driven customisable selection that can properly select shell arguments, urls etc.</li>
363 <li>Selection-transformation and option popup menus.</li>
364 <li>Automatically transforming the selection once made.</li>
365 <li>Incremental scrollback buffer search.</li>
366 <li>Automatic URL-underlining and launching.</li>
367 <li>Remote pastebin, digital clock, block graphics to ascii filter and
368 whatever you like to implement for yourself.</li>
369 </ul>
370 </li>
371 <li>Crash-free. At least I try, but rxvt-unicode certainly crashes much less often than
372 rxvt and its many forks, and reproducible bugs get fixed immediately.</li>
373 <li>Completely flicker-free.</li>
374 <li>Re-wraps long lines instead of splitting or cutting them on resizes.</li>
375 <li>Full combining character support (unlike xterm :).</li>
376 <li>Multiple fonts supported at the same time: No need to choose between
377 nice japanese and ugly latin, or no japanese and nice latin characters :).</li>
378 <li>Supports Xft and core fonts in any combination.</li>
379 <li>Can easily be embedded into other applications.</li>
380 <li>All documentation accessible through manpages.</li>
381 <li>Locale-independent XIM support.</li>
382 <li>Many small improvements, such as improved and corrected terminfo, improved secondary screen modes,
383 italic and bold font support, tinting and shading.</li>
384 <li>Encapsulation of privileged operations in a separate process (improves security).</li>
385 <li>Optimised for local <i>and</i> remote connections.</li>
386 </ul>
387
388 <br />
389 And its main <em>missing</em> features (which users request but are not (yet?) implemented) are:
390
391 <ul>
392 <li>Complex script support, such as arabic or tibetian - more info is needed. (use mlterm)</li>
393 <li>Right-to-Left rendering - more info is needed. (use mlterm)</li>
394 <li>IIIMF (Intranet/Internet Input Method Framework) support. (use scim)</li>
395 </ul>
396
397 <br />
398
399 There is an IRC channel for discussion on <a
400 href='irc://irc.freenode.net/rxvt-unicode'><tt>irc.freenode.net
401 #rxvt-unicode</tt></a>.
402
403 libptytty dist list(rxvt-unicode) cvs-pod(doc/libptytty.3.pod) cvs-co(Changes)
404 libptytty is an offspring of rxvt-unicode that handles pty/tty/utmp/wtmp/lastlog handling
405 in mostly OS-independent ways, so it's less of a hassle for you :)
406
407 gtkbfc cvs-pod(README)
408 Gtk+ bash file chooser replacement.
409
410 <b>gtkbfc</b> is a hack that replaces the dreaded, slow and hard-to-use GTK+
411 file chooser by a rxvt-unicode window with a little script that lets you use
412 readline tab-completion to enter filenames.
413
414 Again, its a dire hack and will not work with all programs. It does work
415 for gimp, firefox, gedit at least, though.
416
417 Async-Interrupt cpan cvs-pod(Interrupt.pm,) cvs-co(Changes) list(anyevent) irc(anyevent)
418 Allow C/XS libraries to interrupt perl asynchronously.
419
420 This is a module implementing a rarely-needed, very advanced technique
421 to interrupt a running perl interpreter from another thread, or similar,
422 context, at very low overhead.
423
424 CV cpan cvs-pod(bin/cv,) cvs-co(Changes)
425 Gtk2::CV is a perl module that implements an image viewer.
426
427 It comes with its own demo app, named <tt>cv</tt>, which is loosely
428 modeled after the classic <tt>xv</tt>, although it displays images much
429 faster than the great original. Stable releases are also found on CPAN.
430
431 kgsueme cpan list(kgsueme) cvs-co(Changes)
432 This perl module is about reverse engineering the
433 <a href="http://cvs.schmorp.de/kgsueme/doc/protocol.html">protocol</a>
434 (<a href="http://cvs.schmorp.de/kgsueme/doc/protocol.xml">xml source</a>)
435 of the popular <a href="http://kgs.kiseido.com">Kiseido Go Server</a>.
436
437 It features a sample Gtk+2 client (<a
438 href="http://kgsueme.schmorp.de/screenshot.jpg">screenshot</a>), a gtp
439 and a igs interface. It mostly focuses on documenting the protocol and
440 delivering a stable reference implementation which makes it easy to write
441 your own clients, bots and so on. It also contains Gtk2 modules for
442 KGS-independent rendering of beautiful Go boards. For a introduction to
443 the game of go, look <a href="http://playgo.to/interactive/">here</a>.
444
445 App-Staticperl cpan cvs-pod(bin/staticperl,) cvs-co(Changes)
446 Perl, libc, 100 modules - all in one self-contained 500kb executable.
447
448 App::Staticperl installs a helper script that allows you to install a
449 statically linked (or linkable) perl distribution, install additional
450 modules, and create new perl interpreters with just the selection of
451 modules you need. It is also possible to just create the C source files
452 needed to embed this custom interpreter into your own programs.<p />
453
454 Two pre-built perl binaries (for Linux on x86 or amd64) which
455 include some highly subjective package selections are available as
456 <a href="http://staticperl.schmorp.de/smallperl.html">smallperl</a>
457 and
458 <a href="http://staticperl.schmorp.de/bigperl.html">bigperl</a>.
459
460 Net-Knuddels cvs-pod(Net/Knuddels.pm,)
461 This perl module provides an API for group communications using the
462 <a href="http://www.knuddels.de/">www.knuddels.de</a> protocol. It is outdated
463 and only provided as reference.
464
465 This module implements the knuddels.de chat protocol. Since it was created
466 the protocol changed in unknown ways, so this module no longer works. It is
467 provided as reference, though, in case the protocol didn't change much,
468 so one can learn about the protocol.
469 It could be used to write Knuddels clients, bots and even servers
470 (although the latter doesn't make much sense, the protocol is rather
471 ugly. If you want to implement your own group communication server, use
472 IRC instead).
473
474 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)
475 This module provides an alternative to the Net-IRC and Net-IRC2
476 modules. Its design rationale is offering a 100% non-blocking
477 callback-based interface, RFC-compliant parsing and a lightweight
478 approach to modularity and reusability.
479
480 AnyEvent-ReadLine-Gnu cpan cvs-pod(Gnu.pm,) list(anyevent) irc(anyevent)
481 This is a small interface to Term::ReadLine::Gnu for event-based programs.
482
483 This module has event-based readline, as well as asynchronous message printing
484 with readline figured out for you.
485
486 IO-FDPass cpan cvs-pod(FDPass.pm,) cvs-co(Changes)
487 Pass a file descriptor over a socket.
488
489 This small low-level module only has one purpose: pass a file descriptor
490 to another process, using a (streaming) unix domain socket (on POSIX
491 systems) or any (streaming) socket (on WIN32 systems).
492
493 Proc-FastSpawn cpan cvs-pod(FastSpawn.pm,) cvs-co(Changes)
494 fork+exec, or spawn, a subprocess as quickly as possible
495
496 The purpose of this small (in scope and footprint) module is simple:
497 spawn a subprocess asynchronously as efficiently and/or fast as
498 possible. Basically the same as calling fork+exec (on POSIX), but
499 hopefully faster than those two syscalls.
500
501 Apart from fork overhead, this module also allows you to fork+exec
502 programs when otherwise you couldn't - for example, when you use POSIX
503 threads in your perl process then it generally isn't safe to call
504 fork from perl, but it is safe to use this module to execute external
505 processes.
506
507 AnyEvent-Fork cpan cvs-pod(Fork.pm,) cvs-pod(Fork/Early.pm) cvs-pod(Fork/Template) cvs-co(Changes)
508 Everything you wanted to use fork() for, but couldn't.
509
510 This module allows you to create new processes, without actually forking
511 them from your current process (avoiding the problems of forking), but
512 preserving most of the advantages of fork.
513
514 It can be used to create new worker processes or new independent
515 subprocesses for short- and long-running jobs, process pools (e.g. for
516 use in pre-forked servers) but also to spawn new external processes (such
517 as CGI scripts from a webserver), which can be faster (and more well
518 behaved) than using fork+exec in big processes.
519
520 Guard cpan cvs-pod(Guard.pm,) cvs-co(Changes)
521 This small module implements scope and object guards, that is, code blocks
522 that are executed when a scope is being exited (or an object is destroyed).
523
524 Much effort was invested into these guards behaving "sensibly" in the
525 presence of thrown exceptions, errors and other adverse conditions, as
526 well as into good performance.
527
528 OpenCL cpan cvs-pod(OpenCL.pm,) cvs-co(Changes)
529 An interface to OpenCL (the Open Computing Language) for Perl.
530
531 Perlized (not C-ish) OpenCL interface.
532
533 common-sense cpan cvs-pod(sense.pm,) cvs-co(Changes)
534 This module implements some sane defaults for Perl programs, as defined
535 by two typical (or not so typical - use your common sense) specimens of
536 Perl coders.
537
538 Net-IRC-Server cvs-pod(Net/IRC/Server.pm,)
539 This module provides a simple API for handling the IRC Protocol
540 aiming at implementing lightweight IRC-Servers.
541
542 PApp-SQL cpan cvs-pod(SQL.pm,)
543 Absolutely easy yet fast and powerful SQL access.
544
545 This module wraps the DBI prepare/bind/execute calls into a single "sql_exec" call,
546 complete with statement caching, so you get the efficiency of prepare, the safety
547 of using placeholders and the speed of bound result values in a simple call.
548
549 Example:
550
551 <pre>
552 my $st = sql_exec \my ($id, $name),
553 "select id, name from db where name like %",
554 "pfx%";
555 while ($st->fetch) {
556 print "$id $name\n";
557 }
558 </pre>
559
560 libcoro cvs-co(README) cvs-co(coro.h)
561 This C-library implements coroutines (cooperative multitasking) in a
562 portable fashion.
563
564 As long as your system implements the <tt>ucontext</tt> (Unix) or the
565 older <tt>sigaltstack</tt> interfaces it should work out of the box,
566 with minimal configuration (it consists of only a single <tt>.h</tt> and
567 a single <tt>.c</tt> file). For the broken systems, it also supports
568 a slow pthreads-based system and (optional) assembly backends for
569 higher speed on some systems. It is known to run on a wide variety of
570 unix systems (SunOS, IRIX, GNU/Linux, HP-UX, FreeBSD, NetBSD, OpenBSD)
571 and also on Windows, does not require any assembly language and is
572 architecture-independent.

624
625 Faster cpan cvs-pod(Faster.pm,)
626 A perl module that makes perl run, well, faster, using a very primitive just in time compiler.
627
628 As the name implies, using this module makes your perl program run
629 faster. Actually, much slower initially, as it compiles every function
630 to C and later to a shared object, but then you can expect a performance
631 increase by 10-50%, depending on what your program does.
632
633 liblzf cvs-co(README) cvs-co(lzf.h) dist
634 LibLZF is a very small data compression library.
635
636 It consists of only two .c and two .h files and is very easy to
637 incorporate into your own programs. The compression algorithm is very,
638 very fast, yet still written in portable C. More info and the latest

656 Algorithm-FEC cpan cvs-pod(FEC.pm,) cvs-co(README.fec) cvs-co(Changes)
657 Perl module implementing forward error correction using Vandermonde matrices
658
659 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)
660 This module offers a simple API for I/O, timer, signal, child process
661 and completion events, independent of a specific event loop.
662
663 <p>This module allows module authors to use those events internally
664 without forcing users of the module to use a specific event loop, without
665 adding noticable overhead. Currently supported event loops are EV, Event,
666 Glib/Gtk2, Tk, Qt, Event::Lib, Irssi, IO::Async and POE (and thus also
667 WxWidgets and Prima). It also comes with a very fast (see benchmarks in
668 the main manual page) Pure Perl event loop and doesn't rely on XS, which
669 ensures that your program will always run even when no C-based event loop
670 is available.</p>
671
672 <p>In addition to the event core (which might be all you need), AnyEvent
673 comes with an optional, fully asynchronous, pure-perl DNS resolver
674 library supporting UDP, TCP and EDNS0, with many utility functions to
675 "just resolve" stuff without having to instantiate even a resolver object
676 (and including an equivalent of C<getaddrinfo>).</p>
677
678 <p>The AnyEvent::Socket offers utility functions to make handling TCP
679 connections (100% non-blocking, including DNS resolution, with both IPv4
680 and IPv6) and addresses as easy as possible, to the point of making IPv6
681 completely transparent.</p>
682
683 <p>Lastly, AnyEvent::Handle offers a powerful framework for asynchronous and
684 buffered protocol handling. You can push multiple read event handlers
685 to parse your protocol and start TLS/SSL negotiation transparently (and
686 fully non-blocking) at any time, in both server and client mode.</p>
687
688 AnyEvent-FastPing cpan cvs-pod(FastPing.pm,) list(anyevent) irc(anyevent)
689 This module implements a very fast and relatively flexible
690 ping (ping as in icmp echo request).
691
692 This module allows you to quickly send ipv4 and ipv6 pings at a defined
693 rate to whole address ranges. It is fully event-driven (doesn't block
694 the perl interpreter) and can easily generate hundreds of thousands of
695 pings per second. Target specification is done by specifying one or
696 more address ranges, to which pings will be distributed according to a
697 least-load principle.
698
699 A command line utility (<tt>fastping</tt>) is included.
700
701 AnyEvent-AIO cpan cvs-pod(AIO.pm,) list(anyevent) irc(anyevent)
702 A perl module providing transparent integration of IO::AIO into AnyEvent.
703

708 A perl module providing mostly transparent integration of Net::DBus into AnyEvent.
709
710 AnyEvent-DBI cpan cvs-pod(DBI.pm,) list(anyevent) irc(anyevent)
711 A perl module providing an asynchronous DBI interface for AnyEvent.
712
713 This module provides an asynchronous DBI interface for AnyEvent by
714 starting one or more proxy processes that handle trhe actual sql
715 commands.
716
717 AnyEvent-FCP cpan cvs-pod(FCP.pm,) list(anyevent) irc(anyevent)
718 A perl module implementing a Freenet Client Protocol 2.0 client.
719
720 AnyEvent-GPSD cpan cvs-pod(GPSD.pm,) list(anyevent) irc(anyevent)
721 A perl module implementing an AnyEvent client for the (pre-xml) GPSD protocol.
722
723 AnyEvent-Porttracker cpan cvs-pod(Porttracker.pm,) cvs-pod(Porttracker/protocol.pod,api-protocol) list(anyevent) irc(anyevent)
724 A perl module implementing a client for the Porttracker/PortIQ API protocol.
725
726 AnyEvent-SNMP cpan cvs-pod(SNMP.pm,) list(anyevent) irc(anyevent)
727 A perl module that transparently integrates Net::SNMP into AnyEvent.
728
729 In addition to making Net::SNMP AnyEvent-aware, this module also
730 implements advanced rate-limiting that enables you to query many devices
731 in parallel without running into timeouts due to high CPU usage.
732
733 AnyEvent-Watchdog cpan cvs-pod(Watchdog.pm,) list(anyevent) irc(anyevent)
734 A perl module implementing a watchdog for Perl processes.
735
736 This module forks your Perl process early during it's startup. It can
737 automatically restart the program on crashes, provide clean restarts
738 requested by the watched program and a number of other small feats.
739
740 AnyEvent-HTTP cpan cvs-pod(HTTP.pm,) cvs-co(Changes) list(anyevent) irc(anyevent)
741 A simple and plain event based http and https client.
742
743 This module implements a simple, stateless and non-blocking HTTP
744 client. It supports GET, POST and other request methods, cookies and more,
745 all on a very low level. It can follow redirects supports proxies and
746 automatically limits the number of connections to the values specified in
747 the RFC.
748
749 It should generally be a "good client" that is enough for most HTTP
750 tasks. Simple tasks should be simple, but complex tasks should still be
751 possible as the user retains control over request and response headers.
752
753 The caller is responsible for authentication management, cookies (if
754 the simplistic implementation in this module doesn't suffice), referer
755 and other high-level protocol details for which this module offers only
756 limited support.
757
758 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)
759 This Perl module (-family) implements a simple message passing framework for Perl.
760
761 Despite its simplicity, you can securely message other processes running
762 on the same or other hosts.
763
764 For an introduction to this module family, see the Intro manual page.
765
766 Coro-MP cpan cvs-pod(MP.pm,) cvs-co(Changes) list(anyevent) irc(anyevent)
767 This Perl module extends the AnyEvent::MP API with a thread-like/erlang-style API.
768
769 This module implements a thread-like API to AnyEvent::MP that is closer
770 to Erlang than the event-based AnyEvent::MP API. It integrates well into
771 AnyEvent::MP.
772
773 See the AnyEvent::MP module and tutorial for info about the concepts used
774 in AnyEvent::MP.
775
776 AnyEvent-DBI cpan cvs-pod(DBI.pm,) cvs-co(Changes) list(anyevent) irc(anyevent)
777 A relatively simple wrapper around DBI to make asynchronous
778 SQL requests.
779
780 This module implements asynchronous DBI access my forking or executing
781 separate "DBI-Server" processes and sending them requests.
782
783 It means that you can run DBI requests in parallel to other tasks.
784
785 AnyEvent-HTTPD cpan-elmex git-pod(lib/AnyEvent/HTTPD.pm,) git-co(Changes) list(anyevent) irc(anyevent)
786 A simple and plain event based http web application server Perl module.
787
788 This is a very basic HTTP server that allows the user/programmer to install
789 hooks for URL paths to generate the output. It uses AnyEvent to be easily
790 embeddable into other applications. The main objective was to make it
791 easier to make simple HTTP frontends in Perl for Perl programs and Perl modules.
792
793 AnyEvent-Feed cpan-elmex git-pod(lib/AnyEvent/Feed.pm,) git-co(Changes) list(anyevent) irc(anyevent)
794 A RSS/Atom Feed aggregator.
795
796 This module uses AnyEvent::HTTP and XML::Feed to fetch and parse RSS and Atom
797 feeds. It provides aggregation (detecting of new entries) to provide an easy
798 interface for simple feed readers.
799
800 AnyEvent-Twitter cpan-elmex git-pod(lib/AnyEvent/Twitter.pm,) git-co(Changes) list(anyevent) irc(anyevent)
801 Implementation of the Twitter API for AnyEvent.
802
803 Provides a simple non-blocking API to access information (aka tweets) provided
804 by <a href="http://www.twitter.com">Twitter</a>.

810 protocol.
811
812 AnyEvent-EditText cpan-elmex git-pod(lib/AnyEvent/EditText.pm,) git-co(Changes) list(anyevent) irc(anyevent)
813 A Perl module which allows editing any text via an editor in a separate process.
814
815 A utility Perl module that will start a terminal/editor for you and will
816 wait non-blocking for you to finish editing that file. Very useful to embed
817 content edititing in event based programs that have a AnyEvent compatible
818 event loop.
819
820 Array-Heap cpan cvs-pod(Heap.pm,) cvs-co(Changes)

848
849 Convert-UUlib cpan cvs-pod(UUlib.pm,) cvs-co(Changes)
850 Perl interface to the uulib library (a.k.a. uudeview/uuenview), which
851 allows easy decoding of multipart mime, uuencode and a whole lot of
852 differently encoded messages. You basically throw files at it, and
853 it extracts the files in them. This module is used by the popular <a

857 A large Perl module family that implements cooperative multitasking in
858 Perl. It supports filehandle and event abstraction and also implements
859 continuations as well as the necessary directives to implement a slightly
860 limited call/cc in Perl.
861
862 Coro-Mysql cpan cvs-co(Changes) cvs-pod(Mysql.pm,)
863 Lets other threads run while doing mysql requests via DBD::mysql.
864
865 This perl module patches libmysqlclient/DBD::mysql at runtime to allow
866 multiple Coro-based threads to make database accesses concurrently,
867 instead of blocking the whole process.
868
869 Crypt-Twofish2 cpan cvs-pod(Twofish2.pm,) cvs-co(Changes)
870 A Perl module implementing the twofish encryption algorithm in Perl. It has
871 mostly been superceded by the Crypt::Twofish module. However, it supports
872 an easy and fast CBC mode natively.
873
874 Digest-Hashcash cpan cvs-pod(Hashcash.pm,) cvs-co(Changes)
875 Perl module to generate and parse <a href="http://www.hashcash.org">hashcashes</a>.

879 EV cpan cvs-pod(EV.pm,) cvs-pod(../libev/ev.pod,libev-documentation) cvs-pod(EV/MakeMaker.pm) cvs-co(Changes) list(libev)
880 A thin wrapper around <a href="/pkg/libev.html">libev</a>, a
881 high-performance event loop. Intended as a faster and less buggy
882 replacement for the Event perl module. Efficiently supports very high
883 number of timers, scalable operating system APIs such as epoll, kqueue,
884 solaris's ports, inotify, eventfd, signalfd, child/pid watchers and much
885 more.
886
887 A <a href="http://lists.schmorp.de/mailman/listinfo/libev">mailing
888 list</a> for discussion and support is now available.
889
890 EV-ADNS cpan cvs-pod(ADNS.pm,) cvs-co(Changes) list(libev)
891 An asynchronous stub resolver that integrates efficiently into
892 the EV event loop. Uses adns/libadns as backend.
893
894 EV-Loop-Async cpan cvs-pod(Async.pm,) cvs-co(Changes) list(libev)
895 Small module that runs an EV event loop in another thread
896 and uses an Async-Interrupt object to signal new events
897 to perl.
898
899 Net-SNMP-EV cpan cvs-pod(EV.pm,) cvs-co(Changes) list(libev)
900 An adaptor that integrates the Net-SNMP Perl module into the EV event loop.
901 Loading it suffices to make background requests in EV programs.
902
903 libev cvs-co(README) cvs-pod(ev.pod) dist list(libev)
904 A full-featured and high-performance (<a
905 href="http://libev.schmorp.de/bench.html">see benchmark</a>)
906 event loop that is loosely modelled after libevent, but without
907 its limitations and bugs. It is used in
908 <a href="/pkg/gvpe.html">GNU Virtual Private Ethernet</a>,
909 <a href="/pkg/rxvt-unicode.html">rxvt-unicode</a>, <a
910 href="http://people.redhat.com/sgrubb/audit/">auditd</a>, the
911 <a href="http://www.deliantra.net">Deliantra MORPG</a> Server and Client,
912 and many other programs.
913
914 Features include child/pid watchers, periodic timers based on wallclock
915 (absolute) time (in addition to timers using relative timeouts), as well
916 as epoll/kqueue/event ports/inotify/eventfd/signalfd support, fast timer
917 management, time jump detection and correction, and ease-of-use.
918 <p />
919
920 It can be used as a libevent replacement using its emulation API or
921 directly embedded into your programs without the need for complex
922 configuration support. A full-featured and well-documented
923 <a href="EV.html">perl interface</a> is also available.

931 This project delivers you many gcc builtins, attributes and a number of
932 generally useful low-level functions, such as popcount, expect, prefetch,
933 noinline, assume, unreachable and so on.
934
935 gvpe dist-gnu
936 GVPE creates a virtual ethernet network with multiple nodes using a
937 variety of transport protocols. Participating nodes do not need to trust
938 each other.
939
940 GVPE creates a virtual ethernet (broadcasts supported, any protocol that
941 works with a normal ethernet should work with GVPE) by creating encrypted
942 host-to-host tunnels between multiple endpoints.
943 <p />
944 Unlike other virtual private "network" solutions which merely create a
945 single tunnel, GVPE creates a real network with multiple endpoints.
946 <p />
947 It is designed to be very simple and robust (cipher selection done at
948 compiletime etc.), and easy to setup (only a single config file shared
949 unmodified between all hosts).
950 <p />
951 VPN hosts can neither sniff nor fake packets, that is, you can use
952 MAC-based filtering to ensure authenticity of packets even from member
953 nodes.
954 <p />
955 GVPE can also be used to tunnel into some vpn network using a variety of
956 protocols (raw IP, UDP, TCP, HTTPS-proxy-connect, ICMP and DNS). It is,
957 however, primarily designed to sit on the gateway machines of company
958 branches to connect them together.
959
960 libeio dist cvs-pod(eio.pod,) cvs-co(eio.h) cvs-co(demo.c) cvs-co(Changes) list(libev)
961 Event-based fully asynchronous I/O library for C (used by IO::AIO).
962 Currently in BETA!
963
964 <p>Libeio is a full-featured asynchronous I/O library
965 for C, modelled in similar style and spirit as <a
966 href="http://software.schmorp.de/pkg/libev.html">libev</a>. Features
967 include: asynchronous read, write, open, close, stat, unlink, fdatasync,
968 mknod, readdir etc. (basically the full POSIX API). sendfile (native on
969 solaris, linux, hp-ux, freebsd, emulated everywehere else), readahead
970 (emulated where not available).</p>
971
972 <p>It is fully event-library agnostic and can easily be integrated into any
973 event-library (or used standalone, even in polling mode). It is very
974 portable and relies only on POSIX threads.</p>
975
976 <p>Its code, documentation, integration and portability quality is
977 currently below that of libev, but should soon be ready for use in
978 production environments.</p>

980 libspf cvs-co(README)
981 Libspf is a C library that implements the <a
982 href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sender_Policy_Framework"> Sender
983 Policy Framework</a>. It allows software to identify and reject forged
984 envelope-from addresses, a typical nuisance in e-mail spam. SPF is
985 defined in Experimental RFC 4408.
986
987 This is not the original home of libspf, but its author (apparently)
988 has vanished for a few years now, and this place took over as a central
989 place to collect patches and possibly make releases.
990 <p />
991 James Couzens, if you read this and want to take over, feel free to
992 contact <a href="mailto:libspf@schmorp.de">me</a>, I'd be thrilled :)
993
994 File-Rdiff cpan cvs-pod(Rdiff.pm,) cvs-co(Changes)

996 librsync: basically your interface to librsync.
997
998 EV-Glib cpan cvs-pod(Glib.pm,) cvs-co(Changes) list(libev)
999 This perl module embeds the default Glib mainloop into the EV event loop. This makes it
1000 possible to use callbacks or modules using the Glib module (e.g. Gtk2 programs) within EV programs. Just
1001 loading it suffices. See the <a href="/pkg/Glib-EV.html">Glib::EV</a> module for the reverse approach.
1002
1003 Glib-EV cpan cvs-pod(EV.pm,) cvs-co(Changes) list(libev)
1004 This perl module patches the default libglib main loop context to use the EV module. This makes
1005 it possible to use callbacks or modules using the EV module within Glib and Gtk2 programs. Just
1006 loading it suffices. See the <a href="/pkg/EV-Glib.html">EV::Glib</a> module for the reverse approach.
1007
1008 Glib-Event cpan cvs-pod(Event.pm,) cvs-co(Changes) list(libev)
1009 This perl module patches the default libglib main loop context to use the Event module. This makes
1010 it possible to use callbacks or modules using the Event module within Glib and Gtk2 programs. Just
1011 loading it suffices.

1019 API. Also contains utility functions to decode SI data.
1020
1021 Devel-FindRef cpan cvs-pod(FindRef.pm,) cvs-co(Changes)
1022 A Perl module that tries to track down references to perl values. Can
1023 be a great aid in debugging leak problems by showing where a value
1024 is still being referenced.
1025
1026 BDB cpan cvs-pod(BDB.pm,) cvs-co(Changes)
1027 A Perl module implementing an interface to BerkeleyDB versions 4.4 and later.
1028 Unlike the BerkeleyDB and DB_File modules, this module has a much more
1029 C-like interface exposing all the features of the underlying library
1030 and also executes all database changes asynchronously using a thread pool.
1031
1032 IO-AIO cpan cvs-pod(AIO.pm,) cvs-co(Changes)
1033 A Perl module that implements asynchronous I/O using pthreads. Apart
1034 from AIO reading and writing, this module also allows asynchronous
1035 <tt>stat</tt>, <tt>open</tt>, <tt>unlink</tt> (and more) calls,
1036 which often are a substantial blocking problem. See also its (outdated)
1037 brother <tt>Linux-AIO</tt>.
1038
1039 JSON-XS cpan cvs-pod(XS.pm,) cvs-co(Changes)
1040 JSON::XS implements JSON (http://www.json.org) for Perl. Unlike other
1041 modules, its primary goal is to encode to syntactically correct JSON and
1042 flag invalid JSON while decoding. It ensures round-trip integrity of
1043 datatypes while being intuitive to use. Currently being the fastest of the
1044 JSON encoders available for Perl, it supports a variety of format options,
1045 such as single-line, ASCII-only or pretty-printed and can be tuned for
1046 speed or memory usage. It comes with a wealth of documentation describing
1047 usage and implementation details.
1048
1049 Games-Go-SimpleBoard cpan cvs-pod(SimpleBoard.pm,) cvs-co(Changes)
1050 A Perl module representing a go board.
1051
1052 This Perl module represents a Go game. It can check for valid moves,
1053 capture stones, stores move history and can represent a variety of
1054 additional annotations (circles, labels, grayed-out stones etc.).
1055
1056 Games-Sokoban cpan cvs-pod(Sokoban.pm,) cvs-co(Changes)
1057 A perl module to load/transform/save sokoban levels in various formats.

1061
1062 Gtk2-GoBoard cpan cvs-pod(GoBoard.pm,) cvs-co(Changes)
1063 A Perl module implementing a go board widget.
1064
1065 This Perl module implements a beautiful go board (see <a
1066 href="http://data.plan9.de/kgsuemel.jpg">example</a>), implemented as a
1067 Gtk2 widget.
1068
1069 Linux-AIO cpan cvs-pod(AIO.pm,) cvs-co(Changes)
1070 A Perl module that implements asynchronous I/O using <tt>clone</tt>
1071 on Linux. Apart from AIO reading and writing, this module also allows
1072 asynchronous <tt>stat</tt>, <tt>open</tt> and <tt>close</tt> (and more)
1073 calls, which often are a substantial problem. See also its (newer) brother
1074 <tt>IO-AIO</tt>.
1075
1076 Linux-Inotify2 cpan cvs-pod(Inotify2.pm,) cvs-co(Changes)
1077 A better/less buggy/more portable interface to the Linux Inotify
1078 subsystem then what Linux::Inotify has to offer. Inotify lets you receive
1079 file change, create, move etc. events for directories in files in a more
1080 scalable fashion than dnotify, the older mechanism.
1081
1082 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)

1084 set up NBD instances. A sample application allowing you to mount most CD
1085 images is included.
1086
1087 Linux-Clone cpan cvs-pod(Clone.pm) cvs-co(Changes)
1088 A Perl interface to the clone(2) and unshare(2) syscalls.
1089
1090 Urlader cpan cvs-pod(Urlader.pm) cvs-co(Changes)
1091 A self-unpacking archive that can be used for program deployment and upgrades.
1092
1093 Much like PAR, this module provides a simple way to build (silently) self-extracting
1094 executables that can contain perl, modules and shared libraries. Unlike PAR it is not
1095 restricted to perl programs, works transparently, without any magic and can cache
1096 unpacked archives for extra speed. Also unlike PAR, it leaves you out in the cold
1097 on the problem of how to atcually gather your files into the distribution.
1098
1099 Mozilla-Plugin
1100 Undocumented, unreleased and unfinished-but-somewhat-working Perl plug-in
1101 for Mozilla (Netscape, Opera, IE...), that allows embedding Tk, Gtk etc.

1146 thttpd
1147 A personally hacked version of thttpd, suitable for lots of file
1148 transfers (normal thttpd has problems with this).
1149
1150 wvsniff
1151 Undocumented but nicely working wavelan sniffer that I wrote for use
1152 with my cisco aironet card. If you get it working, praise yourself.
1153
1154 dhcpping cvs-pod(dhcping.pod,)
1155 A version of dhcpping enhanced by <a href="mailto:marco@nethype.de">Marco Maisenhelder</a>
1156 to support passing dhcp options. Intended to test dhcp server implementations.
1157
1158 Object-Event cpan-elmex git-pod(lib/Object/Event.pm,) git-co(Changes)
1159 A simple event callback API for Perl.
1160
1161 This is just a very simple event callback registration and call API
1162 which new Perl classes can inherit. It's mainly used by AnyEvent::XMPP.
1163
1164 psycpp git
1165 A project that was aimed to implement a PSYC server in C++.
1166
1167 This is a mostly abandoned project at the moment, however, the repository
1168 contains interesting C++ code that might be useful to someone, especially
1169 the C++ JSON implementation might be of interest. The project is mostly
1170 dead at the moment though...

1181 fcrackzip cvs-co(fcrackzip.html)
1182 <b>fcrackzip</b> is a zip password cracker, similar to fzc, zipcrack and others.
1183
1184 <h3>Why, the hell, another zip cracker?</h3>
1185
1186 Naturally, programs are born out of an actual need. The situation with
1187 fcrackzip was no different... I'm not using zip very much, but recently
1188 I needed a password cracker. "Sure", I thought, "there are hundreds of
1189 them out there, I'll just gonna get one!". This wasn't so easy, in fact,
1190 none of the zipcrackers I found were able to find the passwords, either
1191 they didn't accept more than one zipfile, were awfully slow, or didn't do
1192 brute force attacks (which I needed). The worst thing was: no source!.
1193
1194 <h3>Why is <i>no source</i> such a bad thing?</h3>
1195
1196 [insert big chapter about the free software spirit here ;)], anyway
1197 people will never learn... You will find reasons why it's much better to
1198 provide source to your programs here, at opensource.org, and here, at the
1199 Free Software Foundation. Now, what are the features of fcrackzip?
1200
1201 <ul><li>
1202 <p>FREE</p>
1203
1204 <p>It doesn't cost anything, it will run on many architectures, and
1205 the source is freely available, so you can customise it to your
1206 needs. If you make improvements, don't hesitate to mail them to me,
1207 and I will include them in fcrackzip!</p>
1208
1209 <p>One goal of fcrackzip was to provide a free but still fast
1210 zipcracker, so that other people can improve and contribute it
1211 further, in an open developement style.</p>
1212
1213 <p>Other programs, like fzc, come not only without source, but the
1214 executable is even encrypted, so improving it or customizing it is
1215 difficult at best. (Maybe the programmers of other crackers don't
1216 want that people see how crappy their code actually is? Nobody
1217 knows for sure, but I see no other reason for this strange, but
1218 common, behaviour)</p>
1219
1220 </li><li>
1221 <p>FAST</p>
1222
1223 <p>On my old machine (a pentium-90), the portable C version is 12%
1224 slower than fzc, the fastest cracker I could find. Small parts of
1225 fcrackzip have been converted to x86 assembly, so it performs a bit
1226 faster (around 4%) than fzc now, on the same hardware (note: this
1227 is highly os/compiler dependent). Since the author of fzc claims
1228 that it is written fully in assembler, further improvements might
1229 well be possible. Incidently, on my new P-II machine, fcrackzip is
1230 almost twice as fast as fzc ;)</p>
1231
1232 </li><li>
1233 <p>PORTABLE</p>
1234
1235 <p>fcrackzip was written in ISO-C, and should run on most platforms,
1236 even 64 bit ones (maybe after some tweaking). I'll be glad to hear
1237 about portability problems so I can fix them.</p>
1238
1239 </li><li>
1240 <p>FEATUREFUL</p>
1241
1242 <p>fcrackzip will, at some later stage at least, support many more
1243 useful operation modes than other crackers. It already supports
1244 multiple zip files with multiple files. Remember that the code is
1245 only a few hours old!</p>
1246
1247 <p>However, since version 0.2.0 fcrackzip also includes a mode to
1248 brute force cpmask'ed images, something no other program (that I
1249 know of) can do, so at least there is one feature other crackers
1250 don't have.</p>
1251
1252 <p>And you can always implement your own modes.</p>
1253
1254 </li></ul>
1255
1256 <h3>Caveat, Imperator!</h3>
1257
1258 <p>Naturally, there are also some drawbacks. At the moment, fcrackzip
1259 is a bit slower than necessary, and lacks some important (or nice)
1260 features, like automatic unzip-testing and others. On the other hand,
1261 fcrackzip-0.0.1 was hacked together in under ten hours, and you can
1262 always modify the source (and send me patches!!!) (I hope I've made it
1263 clear now ;)</p>
