program. Remind's power lies in its programmability, and Wyrd does not hide
this capability behind flashy GUI dialogs. Rather, Wyrd is designed to make you
more efficient at editing your reminder files directly. It also offers a
scrollable timetable suitable for visualizing your schedule at a glance. Here
is a screenshot.
Unlike most of the calendar applications available today, Wyrd is designed to
be both lightweight and fast. Startup time is negligible, UI navigation is
instantaneous, and the wyrd process typically consumes less than 2MB of
resident memory.

server (preferably local) and a decent browser (Firefox, not IE6).
It is designed to work vaguely with fans of GTD and act as a slightly more
advanced task manager which can be kept on your computer, rather than over the
internet (although in theory you can put it up on the internet).
Here is a quick summary of the main features:
* Sections for tasks organising them by immediate, this week, this month,
this year and lifetime tasks
* Add and filter by contexts and projects (for Getting Things Done fans)
* Print lists on 3 x 5 index cards
* Automatically list all items for today
* Highlighting of current and overdue items
* Mark items as done on the spot, with a done button for each
* Small. As in really really ridiculously small (~160KB download file)
* It's free, but that's probably stating the obvious

Rename this ports to use the real vendor package name. The advantage of this
is to allow our users' keyword search works and easier for users to file the
Bugzilla report when they use our name of ports. Debian, Gentoo, NetBSD and
other OSs have the correct package name, but not in our ports tree.
My team, FreeBSD GNOME Team, have agreed with it.
As for editors/abiword-plugins, x11/gnome2 and x11/gnome2-lite chase the rename.

KchmViewer is a chm (MS HTML help file format) viewer. Unlike most existing
CHM viewers for Unix, it uses Trolltech's Qt widget library, and does not
depend on KDE or Gnome. However, it may be compiled with full KDE support,
including KDE widgets and KIO/KHTML.
The main advantage of KchmViewer is non-english language support. Unlike
others, KchmViewer in most cases correctly detects help file encoding,
correctly shows tables of context of russian, korean, chinese and japanese
help files, and correctly searches in non-english help files.

With TPB it is possible to bind a program to the ThinkPad, Mail, Home and
Search button. TPB can also run a callback program on each state change with
the changed state and the new state as options. So it is possible to trigger
several actions on different events.
TPB has an on-screen display (OSD) to show volume, mute, brightness and some
other information. Furthermore TPB supports a software mixer, as the R series
ThinkPads have no hardware mixer to change the volume.
