moving forward by reducing the amount of needless forking and merging often

4. Self-Contained - Fossil is a single stand-alone executable
that contains everything needed to do configuration management.
Installation is trivial: simply download a precompiled binary
for Linux, Mac, or Windows and put it on your $PATH. Easy-to-compile
source code is available for users on other platforms. Fossil
sources are also mostly self-contained, requiring only the "zlib"
library and the standard C library to build.
5. Simple Networking - Fossil uses plain old HTTP (with proxy
support) for all network communications, meaning that it works
fine from behind restrictive firewalls. The protocol is bandwidth
efficient to the point that Fossil can be used comfortably over
a dial-up internet connection.
6. CGI Enabled - No server is required to use fossil. But a
server does make collaboration easier. Fossil supports three
different yet simple server configurations. The most popular is
a 2-line CGI script. This is the approach used by the self-hosting
fossil repositories.
7. Robust & Reliable - Fossil stores content in an SQLite database
so that transactions are atomic even if interrupted by a power
loss or system crash. Furthermore, automatic self-checks verify
that all aspects of the repository are consistent prior to each
commit. In over two years of operation, no work has ever been
lost after having been committed to a Fossil repository.

Gentium has won a "Certificate of Excellence in Typeface Design" in two major
international typeface design competitions: bukva:raz! (2001), TDC2003 (2003).
Gentium provides glyphs for a wide range of Latin and Greek characters. The
additional 'extended' Latin letters are designed to naturally harmonize with
the traditional 26 ones. Diacritics are treated with careful thought and
attention to their use. Gentium also supports both ancient and modern Greek,
including a number of alternate forms. It currently supports the following

Data Compression Conference, Snowbird, Utah, March-April 1996).
The term "near-lossless compression" refers to a lossy algorithm
for which each decompressed image sample differs from the corresponding
original image sample by not more than a pre-specified value, the
(usually small) "loss." Lossless compression corresponds to loss=0.
Even though the term "continuous-tone image" refers in principle
to any image whose components have more than one bit per sample,
palletized images may require a reordering of the color palette
for best compression results using LOCO-I on the array of color
indices. This functionality is not implemented in the present
software, although it is supported by the new standard, and is easy
enough to implement with the tools given. Notice, however, that
LOCO-I and JPEG-LS were not designed, and might not give optimal
performance, for images that have been palletized through dithering.

for compressing continuous-tone still images, both grayscale and color. JPEG has
defined four mode of operations, summarized them as follows:

(2) Progressive encoding: the image is encoded in multiple scans for
applications in which transmission time is long, and the viewer
prefers to watch the image build up in multiple coarse-to-clear
passes;
(3) Lossless encoding: the images is encoded to guarantee exact recovery
of every source image sample value (even though the result is low
compression compared to the lossy modes);
(4) Hierarchical encoding: the image is encoded at multiple resolutions
so that lower-resolution versions may be accessed without first having
to decompress the image at its full resolution.

ARPACK is a collection of Fortran77 subroutines designed to solve large

eigenvectors of a general n by n matrix A. It is most appropriate for large
sparse or structured matrices A where structured means that a matrix-vector
product w <- Av requires order n rather than the usual order n**2 floating
point operations. This software is based upon an algorithmic variant of the
Arnoldi process called the Implicitly Restarted Arnoldi Method (IRAM). When
the matrix A is symmetric it reduces to a variant of the Lanczos process
called the Implicitly Restarted Lanczos Method (IRLM). These variants may be
viewed as a synthesis of the Arnoldi/Lanczos process with the Implicitly
Shifted QR technique that is suitable for large scale problems. For many
standard problems, a matrix factorization is not required. Only the action
of the matrix on a vector is needed. ARPACK software is capable of solving
large scale symmetric, nonsymmetric, and generalized eigenproblems from
significant application areas. The software is designed to compute a few (k)
eigenvalues with user specified features such as those of largest real part
or largest magnitude. Storage requirements are on the order of n*k locations.
No auxiliary storage is required. A set of Schur basis vectors for the desired
k-dimensional eigen-space is computed which is numerically orthogonal to working
precision. Numerically accurate eigenvectors are available on request.

QPDF is not a PDF content creation library, a PDF viewer, or a
program capable of converting PDF into other formats. In particular,
QPDF knows nothing about the semantics of PDF content streams. If
you are looking for something that can do that, you should look
elsewhere. However, once you have a valid PDF file, QPDF can be
used to transform that file in ways perhaps your original PDF
creation can't handle. For example, programs generate simple PDF
files but can't password-protect them, web-optimize them, or perform
other transformations of that type.

The biblatex package is a complete reimplementation of the
bibliographic facilities provided by LaTeX in conjunction with
BibTeX. It redesigns the way in which LaTeX interacts with
BibTeX at a fairly fundamental level. With biblatex, BibTeX is
only used (if it is used at all) to sort the bibliography and
to generate labels. Instead of being implemented in BibTeX's
style files, the formatting of the bibliography is entirely
controlled by TeX macros. Good working knowledge in LaTeX
should be sufficient to design new bibliography and citation
styles -- there is no need to learn BibTeX's postfix stack
language. Just like the bibliography styles, all citation
commands may be freely (re)defined. In fact, users need not
remain bound to BibTeX for use with biblatex: an alternative
bibliography processor biblatex-biber is available. Development
of biblatex and biblatex-biber is closely coupled; the present
release of biblatex is designed to work with biblatex-biber
version 0.9.3. The package needs e-TeX, and uses the author's
etoolbox and logreq packages. For users of biblatex-biber,
version 0.9 is required (at least; refer to the notes for the
version of biblatex-biber that you are using). Apart from the
features unique to biblatex, the package also incorporates core
features of the following packages: babelbib, bibtopic,
bibunits, chapterbib, cite, inlinebib, mcite and mciteplus,
mlbib, multibib, splitbib. There are also some conceptual
parallels to the natbib and amsrefs packages. The biblatex
package supports split bibliographies, multiple bibliographies
within one document, and separate lists of bibliographic
shorthands. Bibliographies may be subdivided into parts (by
chapter, by section, etc.) and/or segmented by topics (by type,
by keyword, etc.). The package is fully localized and can

when a file was last accessed. Not just when it was written or
modified, but when it was even read. So if you generated a large
amount of data years ago, forgot to clean it up, and have never
used it since, then it ought in principle to be possible to use
those last-access time stamps to tell the difference between that
and a large amount of data you're still using regularly.

agedu is a program which does this. It does basically the same sort
of disk scan as du, but it also records the last-access times of
everything it scans. Then it builds an index that lets it efficiently
generate reports giving a summary of the results for each subdirectory,
and then it produces those reports on demand.

bup is a program that backs things up. bup has a few advantages over other
backup software:
It uses a rolling checksum algorithm (similar to rsync) to split
large files into chunks. The most useful result of this is you can
backup huge virtual machine (VM) disk images, databases, and XML
files incrementally, even though they're typically all in one huge
file, and not use tons of disk space for multiple versions.

It uses the packfile format from git (the open source version control system),
so you can access the stored data even if you don't like bup's user interface.
Unlike git, it writes packfiles directly (instead of having a
separate garbage collection / repacking stage) so it's fast even
with gratuitously huge amounts of data. bup's improved index formats
also allow you to track far more filenames than git (millions) and
keep track of far more objects (hundreds or thousands of gigabytes).

than git (millions) and keep track of far more objects (hundreds or thousands of
gigabytes).
Data is "automagically" shared between incremental backups without
having to know which backup is based on which other one - even if
the backups are made from two different computers that don't even
know about each other. You just tell bup to back stuff up, and it
saves only the minimum amount of data needed.
You can back up directly to a remote bup server, without needing
tons of temporary disk space on the computer being backed up. And
if your backup is interrupted halfway through, the next run will
pick up where you left off. And it's easy to set up a bup server:
just install bup on any machine where you have ssh access.
Bup can use "par2" redundancy to recover corrupted backups even if
your disk has undetected bad sectors.
Even when a backup is incremental, you don't have to worry about
restoring the full backup, then each of the incrementals in turn;
an incremental backup acts as if it's a full backup, it just takes
less disk space.
You can mount your bup repository as a FUSE filesystem and access
the content that way, and even export it over Samba.

Simple dynamic window manager for X with features nicked from ratpoison and dwm:
* Musca operates as a tiling window manager by default. It uses
manual tiling, which means the user determines how the screen is
divided into non-overlapping frames, with no restrictions on
layout. Application windows always fill their assigned frame,
with the exception of transient windows and popup dialog boxes
which float above their parent application at the appropriate
size. Once visible, applications do not change frames unless
so instructed.
* Since not all applications suit tiling, a more traditional
stacking window manager mode is also available, allowing windows
to float at any screen location and overlap.
* There are no built in status bars, panels, tabs or window
decorations to take up screen real estate. If the user wants
any of these things, there are plenty of external applications
available to do the job. Window decoration is limited to a
slender border, which is coloured to indicate keyboard focus.
* Windows are placed in named groups which can be used in a
similar fashion to virtual desktops. Groups can be added and
removed on the fly, and each group has its own frame layout.
* The excellent dmenu utility is used to execute commands and
launch applications, and it can also act as a window and group
switcher. Basic EWMH support allows use of common panels, pagers
and wmctrl.
* Windows and frames are navigated and focused on any mouse button
click, including rolling the wheel, or alternatively driven
entirely by the keyboard. Simple key combinations exist for
window switching, group switching, frame control and screen
switching.
* Frames can be dedicated to a single application window, preventing
new windows usurping said frame. One frame per group can also
be flagged as a catch-all so that all new application windows
open there. The frame border colour changes to reflect these
modes.

A GTK+-based implementation of the wxWidgets cross-platform GUI library.
This package contains the older 2.4 release.
wxWidgets is a set of libraries that allows C++ applications to compile and
run on several different types of computer, with minimal source code changes.
There is one library per supported GUI (such as Windows, GTK+, Motif, and
Mac). As well as providing a common API (Application Programming Interface)
for GUI functionality, it provides functionality for accessing some
commonly-used operating system facilities, from copying and deleting files
to socket and thread support. wxWidgets is a 'framework' in the sense that
it provides a lot of built-in functionality, which the application can use
or replace as required, thus saving a great deal of coding effort. Basic data
structures such as strings, arrays, linked lists and hash tables are also
supported.

on several different types of computer, with minimal source code changes. There
is one library per supported GUI (such as Windows, GTK+, Motif, and Mac). As
well as providing a common API (Application Programming Interface) for GUI
functionality, it provides functionality for accessing some commonly-used
operating system facilities, from copying and deleting files to socket and
thread support. wxWidgets is a 'framework' in the sense that it provides a lot
of built-in functionality, which the application can use or replace as required,
thus saving a great deal of coding effort. Basic data structures such as
strings, arrays, linked lists and hash tables are also supported.
Such a toolkit is not unique - there are others to choose from - but wxWidgets
is free, well-established, well-documented, and very broad in its coverage
of GUI functionality. It has some extras that make it stand out from the
crowd, such as the many convenience dialogs, built-in HTML display and
printing, virtual filesystems, easy-to-use OLE automation controller class,
Open GL support, and many other features that make it easier to write modern
and user-friendly applications.

There is also a python interface available, wxPython (see the py-wxWidgets
package).
