XMMS-SID is an XMMS1 plugin which provides support for playing the so-called "SID tunes". It uses the libSIDPlay1 and/or libSIDPlay2 emulator engines, which provide a virtual emulation/simulation of the Commodore 64 computer and its SID sound chip. It features a file info window, support for STIL database, a song length database, and good configurability.
Release Notes: This release fixes 2SID stereo SID tune playback via the libSIDPlayFP backend, fixes MD5 calculation for stereo PSIDv3 and RSIDv3 tunes, changes emulator initialization semantics for better compatibility, adds support for displaying second SID chip model information in title strings, improves automatic reconfiguration of settings if the emulator backend is changed, and support libSIDPlayFP 1.0.1 (required, if using the 1.x series; the old 0.3.x series is still supported as well.)
libpng (PNG library) is a collection of routines used to create and manipulate PNG format graphics files. The PNG format was designed as a replacement for GIF and, to a lesser extent, TIFF, with many improvements and extensions.
Release Notes: This is a cleanup release with no new features or significant bugfixes. The default gamma handling is improved in the new simplified API.
PyDSM is a Python Delta Sigma Modulator toolbox. It contains tools for experimenting with ΔΣ modulators. It focuses mostly on experimentation with different techniques for the design of the modulator Noise Transfer Function (NTF) and simulation of a generic digital modulator.
Release Notes: This version includes a port of the synthesizeChebyshevNTF NTF design strategy and some bugfixes. It avoids deprecated direct access to numpy array data to make it compatible with future numpy releases.
AKFAvatar is a fancy graphical user interface for text oriented applications where an avatar appears on the screen and provides information in a balloon. It also supports recorded audio files. Applications for AKFAvatar can be written in Lua, and there are interfaces for C, Objective C, C++, Free Pascal, and GNU Pascal. A number of ready-to-use applications and modules are provided, including a text viewer and a module that makes question-answer exercises. For POSIX-compatible operating systems there is a man page viewer and a terminal emulator, which makes it possible to run many existing terminal-based programs in this fancy environment.
Release Notes: This release fixes two vulnerabilities, splits the source code for better maintainability, and gives the name sign a 3D effect.
GNU libmicrohttpd is a small C library for embedding HTTP server functionality into other applications. It is reentrant, fast, supports HTTP 1.1, and permits listening on multiple ports. The API is simple and still powerful enough to allow programmers to use the entire HTTP feature set. SSL/TLS support is available as an option.
Release Notes: This is a bugfix release. It fixes an initialization problem on some platforms and a bug in the postprocessor's URL parser. SSL connections are no longer dropped if the system uptime is less than the connection timeout.
Check updates is a Nagios monitoring system plugin to check if an RPM-based system (Red Hat, Fedora, or CentOS) is up to date.
Release Notes: This release adds an option to specify additional arguments passed to yum.
ZXTune is a set of portable cross-platform applications (GUI/CLI) intended to play chiptunes originally created for ZX Spectrum. It features advanced ripping possibilities that let you search for music in big data sets. Supported playback formats include AY, AS0, ASC, GTR, PSC, PSG, PSM, PT1, PT2, PT3, SQT, ST1, ST3, STC, STP, TXT, TurboSound, VTX, YM, CHI, DMM, DST, PDT, SQD, STR, TFC, and TFD. Supported compressed formats include CHARPRES, CC3, CC4, CC4PLUS, DSQ, ESV, GAM, GAMPLUS, HRUM, HRUST1, HRUST2, LZH1, LZH2, LZS, MSP, PACK2, PCD61, PCD62, TLZ, TLZP, TRUSH. Supported archived/container formats include FDI, HOBETA, HRIP, LHA, RAW, SCL, TD0, TRD, ZXZIP, ZIP, RAR, SNA128, and Z80.
Release Notes: This release adds support for Pro Sound Creator modules (PSC), improves detection and coverage of Sample Tracker modules, and reduces the size of builds for the armhf (Raspberry Pi) platform.
TCPDF is a PHP class for generating PDF documents without requiring external extensions. TCPDF supports all ISO page formats and custom page formats, custom margins and units of measure, UTF-8 Unicode, RTL languages, HTML, barcodes, TrueTypeUnicode, TrueType, OpenType, Type1, and CID-0 fonts, images, graphic functions, clipping, bookmarks, JavaScript, forms, page compression, digital signatures, and encryption.
Release Notes: Font units conversion from HTML/CSS was fixed and improved.
Concurrency Kit provides a plethora of concurrency primitives and lock-less and lock-free data structures designed to aid in the design and implementation of high performance scalable concurrent systems. It was designed to minimize dependencies on operating system-specific interfaces, and most of the interface relies only on a strict subset of the standard library and more popular compiler extensions.
Release Notes: It is recommended that users of ck_fifo_mpmc who recycle nodes with the help of a freelist upgrade to this version. Partial support for MingW32 has been added, with MingW64 support coming up next. A phase-fair read-write lock reference implementation has been provided, as well as a generalized CK_COHORT interface for implementing lock cohorts with arbitrary lock combinations (which satisfy requirements of cohort locks). New ck_ring functionality has been added which allows atomic ring size fetch and enqueue semantics.
Junkie is a real-time packet sniffer and analyzer. It is modular enough to accomplish many different tasks. It can be a helpful companion to the modern network administrator and analyst. Compared to previously available tools, junkie lies in between tcpdump and wireshark. Unlike tcpdump, its purpose is to parse protocols of any depth; unlike wireshark, though, it is designed to analyze traffic in real-time and so cannot parse traffic as completely as wireshark does. In addition, its design encompasses extendability and speed. It has a plug-in system and high-level extension language that eases the development and combination of new functionalities; threaded packet capture and analysis for handling of high bandwidth networks; and a modular architecture to ease the addition of any protocol layer. It is based on libpcap for portability, and well-tested on professional settings.
Release Notes: This release extracts more information from HTTP and provides more robust handling of missing TCP segments.
libeasyfc aims to provide an easy interface to generate fontconfig configurations for alias mapping per language.
Release Notes: This release adds a minor fix to build with the latest GObject-Introspection.
PeaZip is a cross-platform file archiver utility that provides a unified portable GUI for many open source technologies like 7-Zip, FreeArc, PAQ, UPX, etc. Creates 7Z, ARC, BZ2, GZ, *PAQ, PEA, QUAD/BALZ, TAR, UPX, WIM, XZ, and ZIP files. It extracts more than 150 archive types: ACE, ARJ, CAB, DMG, ISO, LHA, RAR, UDF, ZIPX, and more. Features of PeaZip include extracting, creating, and converting multiple archives at once, creating self-extracting archives, split/join files, strong encryption with two factor authentication, an encrypted password manager, secure deletion, find duplicate files, calculate hashes, and export job definitions as scripts.
Release Notes: This release introduces various fixes and improvements, features a native x86_64 build, and is compiled with Lazarus/FPC 1.0.8.
