The Network Time Protocol (NTP) is used to synchronize the time of a computer client or server to another server or reference time source, such as a radio or satellite receiver or modem. It provides client accuracies typically within a millisecond on LANs and up to a few tens of milliseconds on WANs relative to a primary server synchronized to Coordinated Universal Time (UTC) via a Global Positioning Service (GPS) receiver, for example.
tstime is a command that is similar to the time(1) command, but in addition to the runtime, it also prints the highwater memory usage (RSS+VMEM) of the controlled process. tsmon is a command that prints the runtime/highwater memory usage of every process that exits on the system until the tsmon is quit. These programs use the taskstats delay accounting interface of the Linux 2.6 kernel.
SquidTL allows proxy administrators to manage proxy users: define how much time users can spend on a specific Web site, block sites, limit total time users can spend on the Web daily, and watch users' activity. For example, you can limit the use of Facebook or other social networks with per-user rules or IP. It has a small memory footprint and very fast execution. Management can be done with a smart Web-based administration GUI.
Dateutils are a bunch of tools that revolve around fiddling with dates and times in the command line, with a strong focus on use cases that arise when dealing with large amounts of financial data. Their target market is shell scripts that need date calculations or calendar conversions, and as such they are highly pipe-able and modeled after their well-known cousins (e.g. dtest vs. test, or dgrep vs. grep).
LibHdate is a small library for the Hebrew calendar with dates, holidays, and reading sequence. It is written in C and includes bindings for Pascal, Perl, {ython, PHP, and Ruby. hcal and hdate are small example command line programs written in C. This release brings many new options, features, and bugfixes to the two example programs hcal and hdate. The changes to the underlying function library include a few minor bugfixes, deprecation of a series of string functions in favor of a single new one with better memory allocation, and hard-coding of core elements of the Hebrew localization so that Hebrew can be displayed in all locales. Some selected highlights: config files for storing defaults; user-defined menus (defined in a config file); sunset awareness, based on coordinates given or system timezone and guesswork; optional easier entry of coordinates (N, S, E, W, dd:mm:ss); minhag customization for Shabbat times; and Hebrew information in Hebrew characters (for all locales). hcal can display in 3-month mode, in color, and with footnotes and Shabbat information. hdate can output data in CSV format, suitable for spreadsheets, awk, etc. hdate has many format enhancements.
