Apparix allows one to bookmark directories and later jump to them using the mark. By default, it acts as a replacement for cd and can be used in the same manner, including the special behaviour for cd without argument and "cd -". It is possible to directly jump to subdirectories of a bookmarked directory. The contributed bash completion code facilitates completion both on bookmarks and directories, but can be adjusted to accommodate other preferences.
MT-write is a binary patch for multi-threaded writing. It comes in the form of a shared object that can be preloaded to programs like tar to make their write operations multi-threaded. Multi-threaded writing can improve performance on RAM based filesystems and highly scalable filesystems with multiple spindles.
epto is a small library and framework for industrial strength shell script programming with sh.

ded, the directory editor, allows you to navigate multiple file lists or a directory tree, viewing or changing file attributes rapidly.

ldp (LDAP Distributed Profile) will read a user-specific shell profile (.profile) from an LDAP directory server upon login, allowing users (including multiple people operating as root) to always have the same settings irrespective of which machine they are working on. ldp also operates correctly when logging in via SSH via public key auth.
Wsh is a remote Unix and Windows NT shell that works via HTTP. The client script provides a shell-like prompt, encapsulating user commands into HTTP POST requests and sending them to the server script. The server script extracts and executes commands and returns STDOUT and STDERR output. Features include command line history support, file upload/download, and it can work through an HTTP proxy server.
APT-RPM is a port of Debian's APT tools for RPM based distributions (Conectiva, Red Hat, SuSE, ALT-Linux, etc). APT is an advanced package management utility front-end which allows you to easily perform package installation, upgrading and removal. Dependencies are automatically handled, so if you try to install a package that needs others to be installed, it will download all needed packages and install them.
