Packages for SuSE Linux 9.1 compiled by Volker Kuhlmann
===========================
* bibclean
Pretty printer and syntax checker for BibTeX files.
* bibtool
Manages bibliographic data bases in BibTeX format. Good pretty-printer and
syntax checker.
* bibutils
Conversion tools to convert different bibliography formats through a common
XML (MODS) intermediate format.
* cdrecord-dvdhack
* cdrecord-ossdvd
Use dvd+rw-tools instead, it's shipped by SuSE.
* gv
The version which can transparently decompress bzip2 files is now shipped by
SuSE.
* html2text
A current version is now shipped by SuSE.
* ImageMagick3
This version of ImageMagick is made for makeimage, a tool for archiving and
editing photos. Makeimage is now distributed separately (package scriptutils).
To date, none of the available versions 4.x and 5.x of ImageMagick actually
work correctly in all areas used by makeimage (and not many functions are
used), newer IM versions are also noticably slower. This old version of
ImageMagick has no bugs in those functions used by makeimage.
To avoid collisions with other installed IM packages, the installation
location for this package can be changed with rpm --prefix, default is
/usr/local/X11R6. The IM3 wrapper will change the paths accordingly, so
IM3 convert will call the convert of this package.
* iraf
An image processing program, primarily for astronomy.
Install the packages from SuSE 8.2.
* midas
ESO-MIDAS is the European Southern Observatory - Munich Image Data Analysis
System, developed and maintained by the European Southern Observatory. MIDAS
provides general tools for image processing and data reduction with emphasis
on astronomical applications.
Install the packages from SuSE 8.2.
* msttcorefonts
See http://volker.dnsalias.net/linux/msttcorefonts.html
This is now integrated into yast; start the yast online update and install the
"download Microsoft truetype core fonts".
Also, SuSE now has a nifty font installation facility - copy all the X11 font
files into some directory (e.g. under /usr/local) and place a symlink to
it under /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/, then run SuSEconfig --module fonts.
* mutt
Identical to SuSE's shipped version, except for
1) A time stamp on mail files is updated when the file was modified by mutt.
2) When a mail file is modified, chmod o-x is performed on the file, this
works in with using a umask of 076 with procmail.
* nedit 5.5
A very good graphical editor. (http://nedit.org/)
This one is compiled to use the shared openmotif 2.1.30 libraries shipped with
SuSE 9.1. The contrib area from nedit.org is also included in these packages.
* openmotif, openmotif21-libs-2.1.30MLI4
The motif needed for compiling nedit. Don't use a newer motif! For running
nedit, the openmotif21-libs package included in SuSE 9.1 is sufficient.
* par
A paragraph formatter similar to fmt, but much more powerful.
* pdftk
The pdf tool kit.
Concatenation, splitting, and manipulation of pdf files.
* providers-NZ.conf
Not a package, but copying this file to /usr/share/providers/NZ.conf makes a
bunch of common New Zealand ISPs available in yast.
* proxytunnel
* pstotext
Converts PostScript or PDF to plain text. This program sometimes works in
cases where ps2ascii fails.
* scriptutils
This collection of shell scripts helps with everyday tasks, often reducing
the amount of typing otherwise required when using the standard utilities.
Included are scripts for finding files, comparing directory trees, generating
checksums, mastering and writing CDs, downloading URLs listed in special
files via cron, and a few others.
* shorten
Shorten is an audio compression program. It is similar to gzip, but
works much better on sound files. Compression rates are very good for
lossless compression, and even better for lossy operation. It handles
a variety of file formats.
* smartmontools
Controls and monitors storage devices using the Self-Monitoring, Analysis and
Reporting Technology System (S.M.A.R.T.) built into ATA and SCSI Hard Drives.
Update to newer version.
* spinner
Spinner is an anti-idle program that transfers a few characters over a link in
a set time interval. Prevents the link from being cut due to inactivity.
* susegrep, susegrep-data9.1
A searchable index of the SuSE distribution media. Lists package descriptions,
file lists etc. The package susegrep contains the program, but use
scriptutils in preference. susegrep-data9.1 contains the index for 9.1. You
may also install any of the susegrep-dataX.Y packages from previous SuSE
versions in parallel.
* transfig
see -> xfig / transfig
* unixtree
A unix clone of the MSDOS program with a similar name.
* wav2cdr
Install the packages from SuSE 8.2.
* wipe
A current version is now shipped by SuSE.
* WordNet
Install the packages from SuSE 8.2.
* xfig / transfig
Current alpha versions which have new features and work reasonably well.
These packages are optimised for SuSE. All appliccable patches which SuSE
applied to 3.2.4 are applied to this alpha version too. The binaries from
http://www.xfig.org/alpha/ are for Red Hat and don't run on SuSE 9.1 because
of differences in libraries at binary level.
