Add the GUI interface for Bacula,bat is the GUI inteface for Bacula.
Bacula is a set of computer programs that permit you (or the system
administrator) to manage backup, recovery, and verification of
computer data across a network of computers of different kinds.
In technical terms, it is a network Client/Server based backup program.
Bacula is relatively easy to use and efficient, while offering many
advanced storage management features that make it easy to find and
recover lost or damaged files. Due to its modular design, Bacula is
scalable from small single computer systems to systems consisting of
hundreds of computers located over a large network.

FUSEPod is a userspace filesystem which mounts your iPod into a directory
for easy browsing of your songs on your iPod. It features a configurable
directory layout, read/write support, read support for playlists and finds
where your iPod is.
GNU ddrescue is a data recovery tool. It copies data from one file or
block device (hard disc, cdrom, etc) to another, trying hard to rescue
data in case of read errors. Ddrescue does not truncate the output file
if not asked to. So, every time you run it on the same output file, it
tries to fill in the gaps. The basic operation of ddrescue is fully
automatic. That is, you don't have to wait for an error, stop the
program, read the log, run it in reverse mode, etc. If you use the
logfile feature of ddrescue, the data is rescued very efficiently (only
the needed blocks are read). Also you can interrupt the rescue at any
time and resume it later at the same point.
Automatic merging of backups: If you have two or more damaged copies of
a file, cdrom, etc, and run ddrescue on all of them, one at a time,
with the same output file, you will probably obtain a complete and
error-free file. This is so because the probability of having damaged
areas at the same places on different input files is very low. Using
the logfile, only the needed blocks are read from the second and
successive copies.

WikipediaFS is a mountable Linux virtual file system that allows to
read and edit articles from Wikipedia (or any Mediawiki-based site) as
if they were real files.
It is thus possible to view and edit articles using your favourite
text-editor. Text-editors tend to be more convenient than a simple
browser form when it comes to editing large texts and they generally
include useful features such as Mediawiki syntax highlighting and spell
checking.

Rsyslog is an enhanced multi-threaded syslogd supporting, among others,
MySQL, syslog/tcp, RFC 3195, permitted sender lists, filtering on any
message part, and fine grain output format control. It is quite
compatible to stock sysklogd and can be used as a drop-in replacement.
Its advanced features make it suitable for enterprise-class, encryption
protected syslog relay chains while at the same time being very easy to
setup for the novice user.

This patch was submitted by the developer to fix view any files in the
directory that has special character in the name of directory.
reclinker is a recursive symlinking utility. It mirrors a hierarchy of
files by means of symlinks. It's similar to GNU Stow, however:
* written in pure C (no dependencies, fast)
* free of forced, confusing package management terminology (like stow
dir, target dir, package)
* supports both absolut and relative linking
* supports linking into existing hierarchies, handles properly already
existing directory symlinks in the target hierarchy (like /usr/man ->
share/man)
* supports access control (set ownership/mode of created
links/directories, filter processed files based on ownership/mode
requirements)

Provides a somewhat higher-level and friendlier interface to the Gamin File
Access Monitor API. This allows one to monitor both local and remote
(NFS-mounted) files and directories for common filesystem events. To do so, you
must register "monitors" on specified pathnames and wait for events to arrive
pertaining to them.

compute-intensive jobs. Like other full-featured batch systems, Condor
provides a job queueing mechanism, scheduling policy, priority scheme,
resource monitoring, and resource management. Users submit their serial
or parallel jobs to Condor, Condor places them into a queue, chooses
when and where to run the jobs based upon a policy, carefully monitors
their progress, and ultimately informs the user upon completion. Condor
also contains mechanisms to submit jobs to grid-sites and supports many
different grid toolkits.

it uses hardlink to save diskspace, mark each snapshot with
