Ackr is a very small subset of grep/ack/rak, for lazy developers. grep is a great tool, a very powerful tool, but often too powerful for simple needs. Ackr looks for a search string in all text files and in all subfolders from the working directory, is case insensitive, has no options, doesn't look into hidden folders/files, and displays the search term in a bold font.
Tiling provides a simple window tiling system for Linux. It's for those who cannot (or don't want to) use a tiling window manager like awesome or Xmonad. There is no menu or GUI in tiling. You just (optionally) focus a window, press a keyboard shortcut, and that's it -- all windows in the current virtual desktop are tiled.
dantalian is a transparent file-tagging system using hard links. Tags (which are directories) can be accessed on the file system level (with or without fuse), allowing maximum interoperability with other applications. Tagging operations are performed with scripts, and can also be hooked into other applications. dantalian is file-agnostic and can be used with any and all types of files. Tags can be organized hierarchically and can also be tagged. With (optional) fuse support, dantalian can also create virtual tags (currently limited to tag intersections (AND), but will be expanded later), which can be accessed transparently on the filesystem level.
pyReScene is a tool that recreates original RARs by backing up the metadata. It is a port of ReScene .NET to Python. It provides a mechanism for backing up and restoring the metadata from "scene" released RAR files. RAR archive volumes are rebuilt using the stored metadata in the SRR file and the files extracted from the RAR archive. pyReScene consists of multiple related tools: pyReScene Auto to create a complete SRR with one simple command, pyReSample to recreate sample files, and pyReScene Usenet to create SRR files on the fly from Usenet postings. Lots of other small scripts for managing SRR and SRS files are available too.
Wayland is a protocol for a compositor to talk to its clients, as well as a C library implementation of that protocol. The compositor can be a standalone display server running on Linux kernel modesetting and evdev input devices, an X application, or a wayland client itself. The clients can be traditional applications, X servers (rootless or fullscreen), or other display servers.
csvgrep is a commandline program which enables users to execute searches on text-delimited files using a rudimentary query language. Its query language is bound to simplicity and expressivity, to be easily comprehensible. It aims at replacing both grep and awk when you are challenged to retrieve information from a text-delimited file based on the content of a specific field (or column). You can get what you want using the semantic already in the file’s underlying structure.
