  Description : command-line based shuffle music player that remembers 
songs between sessions

 Randomplay allows you to play your music collection (or execute any arbitrary
 commands on any arbitrary filetypes) in random order with a memory of songs
 played preserved across sessions, so you don't "lose your place" if you stop
 and resume later. It also has many features to make command-line music playing 
more
 convenient, including recursive regexp searching for tracks and the ability to
 specify a certain number of tracks, bytes, or minutes to play.  Randomplay will
 also generate a list of music files to be loaded onto a portable music player
 device.  It also includes a 'random weighting' feature, so songs you prefer are
 more likely to come up in the random shuffle according to your preferences.
 .
 Randomplay is a convenient tool for the user who does everything in an xterm
 window or console and finds herself constantly devising complex find/grep/sed
 command lines to play just the right set of songs.

Bug#205482: ITP: shorlfilter -- Text filter to shorten long URLs using online redirection database

  Description : Text filter to shorten long URLs using online redirection 
database

 Shorlfilter takes all HTTP links in input text longer than a specified
 length and converts them to short links through the online shorl
 database. It is particularly handy for email, and can be used as a vim
 or mutt macro.  

 This package is intended to complement libwww-shorten-perl, which I have
 also ITP'd.

I'm aware of all the other image gallery programs in Debian and have
checked them all out.  Salonify has certain features/advantages not
present in any of the other ones.

Some of these include:

Salonify tries really hard to render well in all browsers, including w3m
(w3m-img).  Accessibility and standards compliance are top design
considerations.  Also, it uses JavaScript to preload images and for
slideshow, but it is also 100% useable with JavaScript disabled.
(similarly with cookies).  

Anyone visiting the site can change image captions (like a wiki), and it
keeps a change history in case you need to roll back.  Visitors from the
web can customize the layout, or the administrator can set a certain
layout and restrict visitors from changing layout (or captions).  

Salonify is also useful if you use your server as your desktop computer
(or if you don't want to maintain two separate directory structures for
photos online and photos on your own system).  Photos are set up in a
directory hierarchy that is conveniently browsed with gqview et al., and
thumbnails are hidden.  

Salonify doesn't generate a ton of HTML files like some of the image
gallery programs, and adjusts dynamically to new image directories or new
images.  

I wrote salonify because I was frustrated with all the existing image
gallery programs I could find.  Several people have found it useful and
preferable to other packages out there--I think it's worth including.

* Package name: salonify

  Upstream Author : Adam Kessel <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
* URL : http://bostoncoop.net/adam/salonify
* License : GPL
  Description : Easy, configurable, compliant, and accessible web-based 
image gallery system

Salonify is a Perl script which displays images that you have organized
in a directory hierarchy. The Web user can choose to see photos as
thumbnails or in small, medium, or full-size format; rotate the images;
modify the captions; move from folder to folder or image to image easily;
and customize the layout.  The administrator can also take away any of
these abilities from the user if they want. By default, the captioning is
totally democratic (or wiki-like)--anyone visiting your site can change
the captions. You can also lock this down. Salonify generates nearly
w3c-compliant HTML (getting closer all the time) and renders quite well
in all tested browsers, including w3m-img, lynx, Mozilla, Opera,
Netscape, Internet Explorer, etc.. It uses JavaScript when available but
does not depend on it, and makes special allowances for bugs in certain
browsers.

Bug#186796: RFP: libxml-easyobj-perl -- Perl module to make accessing XML documents trivial

http://cpan.org/modules/by-module/XML/XML-EasyOBJ-1.12.readme
* License : Perl
  Description : Perl module to make accessing XML documents trivial

This module is designed to make accessing accessing an XML document
rather trivial.  You don't need to understand the DOM, you don't need to
even know what SAX is, all you need to know is how an XML document
is structured and how to program with objects (OOP).

XML::EasyOBJ takes each tag in your XML file and magically converts it
to a method name.
