[003] - AKFAvatar 0.16.0
  by Andreas K. Foerster (http://freshmeat.net/users/AKFoerster/)
  Fri, Feb 27th 2009 19:20

Terminals :: Terminal Emulators/X Terminals
Utilities

About: AKFAvatar is software where an image of an avatar appears on the
screen and tells things written in a balloon. First the avatar moves slowly
in from the right side, then text is shown in a balloon. The program
avatarsay can be used as a fancy terminal emulator, or as a fancy text
reader or man page viewer. Furthermore, the program supports some basic
commands, so it can be used as a scripting language for simple demos. You
can use the libakfavatar library from your own C programs. There is also a
rather mature Pascal binding for GNU Pascal and Free Pascal.

Changes: There are many new features, mainly for making demos. Demo
scripts must be rewritten (sorry). You can bundle demo files with images
and sounds in an archive file. There is a large new demo in the download
area that shows more of what can be done with the software. There are also
some bugfixes.

[004] - Asymptote 1.66
  by John Bowman (http://freshmeat.net/users/jcbowman/)
  Fri, Feb 27th 2009 06:49

Education
Multimedia :: Graphics :: Editors :: Vector-Based
Scientific/Engineering

About: Asymptote is a powerful descriptive vector graphics language for
technical drawing, inspired by MetaPost but with an improved C++-like
syntax. It provides for figures the same high-quality level of typesetting
that LaTeX does for scientific text. Asymptote is a programming language as
opposed to just a graphics program. It can exploit the best features of
script (command-driven) and graphical user interface (GUI) methods.
High-level graphics commands are implemented in the language itself,
allowing them to be easily tailored to specific applications.

Changes: An alignment problem with the pdflatex tex engine was fixed.
Problems in the animations module were fixed. Optional direction arguments
were added for three-dimensional bars. The appearance and alignment of the
planar arrowheads DefaultHead2, HookHead2, and TeXHead2 were improved; they
now accept an optional normal argument and respect the filltype. A
transverse/longitudinal confusion was fixed in solids.asy. The camera
adjustment routine was improved; an autoadjust option was added and the
user is notified when the camera is moved. Midpoint interpolation was
reinstated for drawing contours.

[005] - atool 0.36.0
  by Oskar Liljeblad (http://freshmeat.net/users/osk/)
  Fri, Feb 27th 2009 19:21

System :: Archiving

About: atool is a script for managing file archives of various types (tar,
tar+gzip, zip etc). The main command is aunpack, which extracts files from
an archive. It overcomes the problem of extracting files from an archive
without checking whether the files were located in a subdirectory or in the
top directory of the archive, resulting in files scattered all over the
place by first extracting to a new directory. If there was only a single
file in the archive, that file is moved to the original directory. It also
prevents local files from being overwritten by mistake. The other commands
are apack for creating archives, als for listing files in archives, and
acat for extracting files to standard out.

[011] - Chess Training Tools 1.3.0
  by dkappe (http://freshmeat.net/users/dkappe/)
  Fri, Feb 27th 2009 21:20

Games/Entertainment :: Turn Based Strategy

About: Chess Training Tools is a collection of chess training tools. It
includes a chess visualization trainer that teaches chess visualization by
drilling you on the color of a particular square, and also on your ability
to tell if two squares are the same color, if two (or three) squares are on
the same diagonal, if two squares are a knight move apart, or if two
squares are two knight moves apart. It includes a weak chess program
(called Vince) that lets you lag the display by several ply, hide all
pieces or all pawns, and block out quadrants of the board. Furthermore, it
includes an opening memorization trainer. The Palm & Pocket PC versions are
missing the mate, opening trainer, and Vince.

Changes: This release adds a larger board display. It adds a new chess
vision training tool. It improves opening play of the engine if it gets out
of the book early. The opening trainer has been removed, as there are much
better free tools.

  Fri, Feb 27th 2009 07:04

Games/Entertainment :: Arcade

About: Cosmosmash is a game where you control a base that must destroy
rocks before they hit the ground, or you lose points. You must also prevent
"spinners" from touching the ground, or your base will explode. This game

Mattel Electronics.

Changes: This version links with the new flatzebra 0.1.2. The gameplay has

large Internet service providers.

[033] - Mount-gtk 1.0.3
  by Chris Vine (http://freshmeat.net/users/cvine/)
  Fri, Feb 27th 2009 17:04

About: Mount-gtk is a front end for pmount. It provides a means of
mounting devices with pmount through a graphical interface. It is intended
for use whenever automounting facilities are not desired or are not
effective. It is built as a single-instance program: if the user attempts
to start it when another instance of it is already running, the existing
instance will be brought up on the current desktop. It will therefore not
usually be necessary to mark it as displayable on all desktops.

Changes: This release uses glib's gio to read and monitor the list of
mounted devices.

Text Processing :: Markup :: XML

About: SDoP (Simple DocBook Processor) reads a DocBook XML file, processes
it into typeset pages, and outputs the result as PostScript (which can

stylesheets or any other heavyweight apparatus. It is a single program.

Changes: A few extra features have been added, and a few bugs have been
mended.

options on indicators alert you when your data quality is not what you
expected.

Changes: There is a bugfix in refreshing the connection analysis editor,
and a bugfix in median default computation.
