YABT is a general purpose Braille translation system
written in pure python. It is primarily designed to
be used by the BrlTex Project, but due to its general
design it may be suited to use in other projects.
Currently YABT has a table for translation in to British
Braille encoded in ASCII Braille, but tables for other
codes and other output encodings such as unicode Braille
are possible.

characters and terminal control sequences, into human-understandable
text. It is intended to aid in debugging problems in terminal
emulators, software that makes use of special terminal features, and
interactions between the two.
Teseq is primarily targeted at individuals who possess a basic
understanding of terminal control sequences, especially CSI sequences;
however, by default Teseq will try to identify and describe the
sequences that it encounters, and the behavior they might produce in a
terminal.
Teseq describes control functions as they are interpreted by
VT100-compatible terminals, and/or terminals compliant with the ECMA-48 /
ISO/IEC 6429 standard. Teseq does _not_ support describing control
functions according to terminal-specific definitions in a database such
as termcap or terminfo, though future versions may include limited
support for that (*note Future Enhancements::). Therefore, the
descriptions Teseq uses for control functions may not necessarily match
their actual interpretation by whatever terminal device the characters
were actually intended for

notes can be found at:
http://www.kde.org/announcements/announce-3.5.10.php
While not a very exciting release in terms of features,
3.5.10 brings a couple of nice bugfixes and translation
updates to those who choose to stay with KDE 3.5. The
fixes are thinly spread across KPDF with a number of crash
fixes, KGPG and probably most interesting various fixes
in kicker, KDE3's panel:
* Improved visibility on transparent backgrounds
* Themed arrow buttons in applets that were missing them
* Layout and antialiasing fixes in various applets

I have added a patch to configure_port.sh to accept a new parameter:
the WRKSRC and to not enable TDM_VOICE and WANPIPE by default.
Remove the pkg-deinstall script, that was just naughty.
Added "kldxref" to the pkg-plist (just in case).
Please note that:
- The Makefile contains KMODDIR, but it is not used in the pkg-plist
and in the softwares Makefiles.
- Please add kldxref to the post-install target.

GNOME 2.20 release notes can be found at
http://www.gnome.org/start/2.20/notes/en/ . Beyond that, this update
includes the new GIMP 2.4 (courtesy of ahze).
The GNOME 2.20 update also includes a huge change in the FreeBSD GNOME
hierarchy. We are now using the more standard DATADIR of ${PREFIX}/share
rather than ${PREFIX}/share/gnome. The result is that fewer patches and
hacks are needed to port GNOME components to FreeBSD. This will mean some
user changes may be required, so be sure to read /usr/ports/UPDATING for
more details.
This release and the things we accomplished in it would not have been
possible without mezz's crazy idea to collapse DATADIR, and his persistence
to make it happen successfully. Ahze and pav also deserve thanks for
their work on porting modules and testing the whole ball of wax on
pointyhat (respectively).
The FreeBSD GNOME team would also like to thank our various testers and

The TOIlet project attempts to create a free replacement for the FIGlet
utility. TOIlet stands for "The Other Implementation's letters", coined
after FIGlet's "Frank, Ian and Glen's letters".
TOIlet is in its very early development phase. It uses the powerful
libcucul library to achieve various text-based effects. TOIlet
implements or plans to implement the following features:
* The ability to load FIGlet fonts
* Support for Unicode input and output
* Support for colour output
* Support for various output formats: HTML, IRC, ANSI...
TOIlet also aims for full FIGlet compatibility. It is currently able to
load FIGlet fonts and perform horizontal smushing.

mtail is a small tail workalike that performs output coloring using ansi
escape sequences (although the sequences are overridable, so you could cause
it to output something else, e.g. html font tags, if you really wanted to).
mtail is written in python, is fairly small, and should be relatively
platform-independent.
It has a config file that can contain an arbitrary number of entries, each
of which has a series of regular expressions to indicate which files to color
according to which entry. for each entry, the config file specifies a coloring
scheme using regular expressions and, optionally, filters to apply to each
line before coloring (for example, to strip out extra info, etc.). the config
file also may override the predefined colors and the escape sequences (or
whatever) actually used to perform the coloring.

Pantry is a command-line oriented nutrient analysis program. It is a
true command-line program: there are no menus, there are no prompts.
Instead, you simply type commands from your shell prompt, and Pantry
does what you ask it to do, displaying results if you have asked it to
do that.
In addition to using Pantry from your shell prompt, you also interact
with it through XML files. Using XML, you can edit Pantry's
configuration file. You can also add nutrient information for custom
foods (though Pantry includes nutrient information for over 7,000 foods
to get you started) and recipes using XML.

gretl is used in the mathematical analysis of time series,
and has a functionality that is similar to various statistical
and signal processing components of it++, octave, scilab,
R, numpy/scipy, etc. -- most of which are in the math
category. It should really be placed there, rather than
in misc. In recognition of the fact that it implements
some methods that are commonly (but not exclusively!) used
in econometrics, it should also be given a secondary listing
in finance. (In my opinion, however, it shouldn't be given
a primary listing in that category, because most of the
ports there deal with the nuts-and-bolts of accounting,
payment methods, taxes, and stock tracking. To my knowledge,
the only ports now in finance that remotely resemble gretl
are quantlib, xtrader, and qtstalker, all of which employ
simpler methods that are more specific to financial time
series than are the more general methods in gretl.
