gd-utils 2.0.15 BSD-style The Utils files for gd. gd is a graphics library. It allows your code to quickly draw images complete with lines, arcs, text, multiple colors, cut and paste from other images, and flood fills, and write out the result as a PNG or JPEG file. This is particularly useful in World Wide Webapplications, where PNG and JPEG are two of the formats accepted for inlineimages by most browsers. gd is not a paint program. If you are looking for a paint program, you are looking in the wrong place. gd does not provide for every possible desirable graphics operation. It is not necessary or desirable for gd to become a kitchen-sink graphics package, but version 1.7.3 incorporates most of the commonly requested features for an 8-bit 2D package. GIF creation will not reappear in gd until the patent expires world-wide on July 7th, 2004. I realize this situation is frustrating for many; please direct your anger and complaints toward the questionable patent system that allows the patenting of such straightforward algorithms in the first place.

gsm 1.0.10 distributable Shared libraries for GSM speech compressor. Contains runtime shared libraries for libgsm, an implementation of the European GSM 06.10 provisional standard for full-rate speech transcoding, prI-ETS 300 036, which uses RPE/LTP (residual pulse excitation/long term prediction) coding at 13 kbit/s. GSM 06.10 compresses frames of 160 13-bit samples (8 kHz sampling rate, i.e. a frame rate of 50 Hz) into 260 bits; for compatibility with typical UNIX applications, our implementation turns frames of 160 16-bit linear samples into 33-byte frames (1650 Bytes/s). The quality of the algorithm is good enough for reliable speaker recognition; even music often survives transcoding in recognizable form (given the bandwidth limitations of 8 kHz sampling rate). The interfaces offered are a front end modelled after compress(1), and a library API. Compression and decompression run faster than realtime on most SPARCstations. The implementation has been verified against the ETSI standard test patterns.

itcl 8.4.5 BSD object oriented mega widgets for tcl [incr Tcl] is an object-oriented extension of the Tcl language. It was created to support more structured programming in Tcl. Tcl scripts that grow beyond a few thousand lines become extremely difficult to maintain. This is because the building blocks of vanilla Tcl are procedures and global variables, and all of these building blocks must reside in a single global namespace. There is no support for protection or encapsulation. [incr Tcl] introduces the notion of objects. Each object is a bag of data with a set of procedures or "methods" that are used to manipulate it. Objects are organized into "classes" with identical characteristics, and classes can inherit functionality from one another. This object-oriented paradigm adds another level of organization on top of the basic variable/procedure elements, and the resulting code is easier to understand and maintain.

libadns1 1.0 GPL Libraries needed to run applications using adns. adns is a resolver library for C (and C++) programs. In contrast with the existing interfaces, gethostbyname et al and libresolv, it has the following features: * It is reasonably easy to use for simple programs which just want to translate names to addresses, look up MX records, etc. * It can be used in an asynchronous, non-blocking, manner. Many queries can be handled simultaneously. * Responses are decoded automatically into a natural representation for a C program - there is no need to deal with DNS packet formats. * Sanity checking (eg, name syntax checking, reverse/forward correspondence, CNAME pointing to CNAME) is performed automatically. * Time-to-live, CNAME and other similar information is returned in an easy-to-use form, without getting in the way. * There is no global state in the library; resolver state is an opaque data structure which the client creates explicitly. A program can have several instances of the resolver. * Errors are reported to the application in a way that distinguishes the various causes of failure properly. * Understands conventional resolv.conf, but this can overridden by environment variables. * Flexibility. For example, the application can tell adns to: ignore environment variables (for setuid programs), disable sanity checks eg to return arbitrary data, override or ignore resolv.conf in favour of supplied configuration, etc. * Believed to be correct ! For example, will correctly back off to TCP in case of long replies or queries, or to other nameservers if several are available. It has sensible handling of bad responses etc. This package contains all of adns libraries.

A front end to the Berkeley decoding engine was developed by Greg Ward at the Montreal Neurological Institute in May/June 1994 to facilitate the development of an MPEG player specifically for Silicon Graphics workstations. The decoding engine together with the MNI front end constitute the MPEG Library.

libcairo1 0.1.17 BSD Cairo - multi-platform 2D graphics library. Cairo provides anti-aliased vector-based rendering for X. Paths consist of line segments and cubic splines and can be rendered at any width with various join and cap styles. All colors may be specified with optional translucence (opacity/alpha) and combined using the extended Porter/Duff compositing algebra as found in the X Render Extension. Cairo exports a stateful rendering API similar in spirit to the path construction, text, and painting operators of PostScript, (with the significant addition of translucence in the imaging model). When complete, the API is intended to support the complete imaging model of PDF 1.4. Cairo relies on the Xc library for backend rendering. Xc provides an abstract interface for rendering to multiple target types. As of this writing, Xc allows Cairo to target X drawables as well as generic image buffers. Future backends such as PostScript, PDF, and perhaps OpenGL are currently being planned.

libfidoconf1.4 1.4.0 GPL Library to access the fidoconfig The design goal of fidoconfig was to provide one config-file for several different fido software packages like editor, tosser etc. An additional aim was to have one library (fidoconfig) which can be used by all programs. The advantage is you only have to edit one config-file, so changing your system is much easier than with common software packages. Also bugs can only creep in one library and not in thousands over thousands libraries.
