All those features come in a reusable library (xine-lib) which can easily be embedded in your applications. XMMS Album List 2.1 http://freshmeat.net/releases/131931/ XMMS Album List is a small program written with GtkPerl and XMMS::Perl, which allows directories to be loaded into XMMS by double clicking them. Yet Another Passwd 2 LDIF Converter 0.4.1 http://freshmeat.net/releases/131890/ Yap2lc (Yet Another Passwd 2 LDIF Converter) extracts information from passwd and shadow-passwd formatted files, combines them with a user specifiable template, and writes an LDIF file you can import into your LDAP server. It supports BSD-like and non-BSD-like systems, and performs sanity checks on user entries to detect invalid fields. Zero Install 0.1.14 http://freshmeat.net/releases/131885/ The Zero Install system removes the need to install software or libraries by running all programs from a network filesystem. The filesystem in question is the Internet as a whole, with an aggressive caching system to make it as fast as (or faster than) traditional systems such as Debian's APT repository, and to allow for offline use. It doesn't require any central authority to maintain it, and allows users to run software without needing a root password. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ To unsubscribe - If you do not wish to subscribe to Freshmeat, go to: http://www.osdn.com/newsletters/unsubscribe.shtml ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Copyright (c)1999-2002 Open Source Development Network.
