[001] - 4tH compiler 3.4e-pre8 (Development)
  by HanSoft (http://freshmeat.net/users/hansoft/)
  Mon, Oct 25th 2004 03:05

Software Development :: Code Generators
Software Development :: Compilers
Software Development :: Libraries

About: 4tH is a Forth compiler with a little difference. Instead of the
standard Forth engine it features a conventional compiler. 4tH is a very
small compiler that can create bytecode, C-embeddable bytecode, standalone
executables, but also works fine as a scripting language. It supports over
85% of the ANS Forth CORE wordset and features conditional compilation,
pipes, files, assertions, forward declarations, recursion, include files,
etc. It comes with an RPN calculator, line editor, compiler, decompiler,
C-source generators, and a virtual machine.

Changes: The words R', UNLOOP, BOUNDS and 2R were added. A new library
member for character translation (much like 'tr') was added. The inline
macro section of the compiler was rewritten and optimized.

Internet :: WWW/HTTP :: Dynamic Content :: CGI Tools/Libraries
Software Development :: Libraries :: PHP Classes

About: Active Calendar is a PHP class that generates calendars (month or
year view) as HTML tables (XHTML-Valid). It supports calendar generation
for the years 1971-2037 and can produce static calendars without any links
or calendars with navigation controls, a date picker control, and linked
days. The layout can be configured using CSS, and JavaScript is not
required.

Changes: A new example script was added in this version, to demonstrate
how event dates could be generated in the Active Calendar (CSS layout),
using records from a MySQL database.

[029] - fairly fast packet filter 1.3.1
  by Willem de Bruijn (http://freshmeat.net/users/wdebruij/)
  Mon, Oct 25th 2004 12:37

System :: Networking :: Monitoring
System :: Operating System Kernels :: Linux

About: The fairly fast packet filter (FFPF) is an approach to network
packet processing that adds many new features to existing filtering
solutions like BPF. It is designed for high speed by pushing
computationally intensive tasks to the kernel or even network processors
and by minimising packet copying. By providing both a richer programming
language and explicit extensibility, it is also considerably more
flexible than existing approaches. It provides a complete solution for
network monitoring that caters to all applications available today. Using
 its extensibility, the language can even be used as a meta- filter to
"script" together filters from other approaches, such as BPF.

Changes: This release fixes a number of bugs, mostly includes that linked
to old (v1.2) header files, breaking compilation.

System :: Networking
System :: Systems Administration

About: Linux Bandwidth Arbitrator allows beginning-to-advanced network
administrators to control bandwidth. It is designed to be completely
turn-key in its default configuration. You just plug it into your network
trunk, and it self configures and immediately starts slowing "bandwidth
hogs". It can be configured to target specific applications such as Kazaa,
IMAP, and POP. It is compatible with the 2.4.25 kernel, ebtables, and
brouter (bridging router). It also comes with denial of service
protection.

Changes: This release cleans up a problem with downlink traffic not
accounting correctly. It also introduces refined tuning for the hardlimit
feature. It also has been extensively tested for stability. It is based on
the 2.4.19 kernel.

[073] - MoSSHe 1.1.7
  by Volker Tanger (http://freshmeat.net/users/vtanger/)
  Mon, Oct 25th 2004 09:24

System :: Networking :: Monitoring

About: MoSSHe (MOnitoring with SSH Environment) is a simple, lightweight
(both in size and system requirements) server monitoring package designed
for secure and in-depth monitoring of a number of typical Internet
systems. It was developed to keep the impact on network and performance
low, and to use a safe, encrypted connection for in-depth inspection of
the system checked. It is not possible to remotely run (more or less
arbitrary) commands via the monitoring system, nor is unsafe cleartext
SNMP messaging necessary (yet possible). A read-only Web interface makes
monitoring and status checks simple (and safe) for admins and helpdesk.
Checking scripts for remote and local systems (disk space, load,
processes, users), common services (SMTP, POP3, HTTP) and SNMP queries are
included.

Changes: Portability of disk check in LOCALCHECK when using "long" devices
like /dev/ide/host0/bus0/target0/lun0/part7 is increased.

[080] - ngetdaemon 0.28
  by saunders (http://freshmeat.net/users/saunders/)
  Mon, Oct 25th 2004 09:39

Communications :: Usenet News

About: ngetdaemon allows quick and efficient perusing and downloading from
Usenet remotely. Updating and sorting of all headers is done with one
click. The strongest feature is that posts are grouped together in 'file
groups', meaning a post consisting of 100 files is compacted into one line
and determined to be complete, incomplete, par fills, etc. There are no
pretty buttons, animations, etc. Everything is designed to create as
little strain on bandwidth as possible.

Changes: This release adds hiding of downloaded files to speed up
refreshing the 'download queue' page, adds displaying of free drive space
on the target drive, improves the log parsing code further (should fix
issues a few people are having), and has minor fixes and tweaks.

System
System :: Clustering/Distributed Networks
System :: Installation/Setup

About: Omnitty is a curses-based program that allows you to log into
several machines simultaneously and interact with them, selectively
directing input to individual machines or groups of selected machines.
You can run both line-oriented and screen-oriented in the target
machines, because it has built- in terminal emulation capability. When the
window is large enough, Omnitty also displays a "summary area" for each
machine, in which it shows what the latest output from the machine was,
so you can have an idea of what is going on in each machine.

Changes: A -W option has been added to allow the user to specify the list
window width. Copyright notices have been added to files. 'make install'
now honors the DESTDIR environment variable if set, so as to make it
easier to install the program on a 'fake root'. This is mainly for
building distro packages, but has other uses.

  Mon, Oct 25th 2004 03:11

Software Development
Software Development :: Bug Tracking
Software Development :: Testing

About: The Stabilizer bug tracking system aims to quickly stabilize buggy
GUI applications so that people can get real work done with them. Users
can collaboratively and quickly stabilize applications simply by using
them normally and reporting any bugs that they encounter to prevent anyone
(including themselves) from encountering them again. As soon as a few
people report the same bug, warnings will be issued to all users whenever
they are about to trigger that bug and they will be given the opportunity
to abort the input event. The bugs need to be fixed eventually, but this
makes the application useful in the meantime.

Changes: This release adds an "always warn" option to the report bug
dialog and a "never warn" option to the report not bug dialog. Also, some
code cleanups and bugfixes were made.
