Jikes is a Java compiler that translates Java source files as defined in The
Java Language Specification (Addison-Wesley, 1996) into the bytecoded
instruction set and binary format defined in The Java Virtual Machine
Specification (Addison-Wesley, 1996). Unlike other compilers, Jikes accepts
the Java language only as specified: not as a subset, variant, or superset.

Debian description:

Heroes is similar to the "Tron" and "Nibbles" games of yore, but includes
many graphical improvements and new game features. In it, you must maneuver
a small vehicle around a world and collect powerups while avoiding obstacles,
your opponents' trails, and even your own trail.

Several styles of play are available, including "get-all-the-bonuses",
deathmatch, and "squish-the-pedestrians". All game styles can be played
in both single-player and two-player (split-screen) modes.

You should install the heroes-sound-effects package if you want sound effects,
and the heroes-sound-tracks package if you want background music in the game.
These packages are quite large (especially heroes-sound-tracks), so you might
want to try the game out before installing them.

This version is linked against the SDL libraries. See heroes-ggi for a
Heroes version that is linked against the GGI libraries.

Debian description:

So, uh, there's a bunch of penguins on an iceberg in Antarctica. You have
been selected to catch them so they can be shipped to Finland, where they
are essential to a secret plot for world domination.

In order to trap the penguins, you'll need to break the iceberg into small
chunks. (They're afraid of water, for no apparent reason. Ah well. "The
Matrix" had more plot holes than this, and it still was a hit.) You do
this by melting lines in the ice with Special High-Tech GNU Tools.

Once 80% or more of the iceberg is gone, the remaining chunks are small
enough for shipping. Of course, if you manage to get rid of more than
that, you'll save on postage, thus earning you exponential amounts of Geek
Cred (a.k.a. "score").

Toppler is an almost complete reimplementation of the old game known as
Tower Toppler or Nebulus.

The target of the game is to reach the target door of each of the 8 towers
in currently 2 missions with this little green animal. This door is usually
at the very top of the tower.

But finding the way by using elevators and walking through a maze of doors
and platforms is not the only problem you have to solve. There are a bunch
of other creatures living on the tower that will hinder you to reach your
target by pushing you over the edge of the platforms.

bzip2 is a freely available, patent free, high-quality data compressor.
It typically compresses files to within 10% to 15% of the best available
techniques, whilst being around twice as fast at compression and six
times faster at decompression.

bzip2 compresses files using the Burrows-Wheeler block-sorting text
compression algorithm, and Huffman coding. Compression is generally
considerably better than that achieved by more conventional
LZ77/LZ78-based compressors, and approaches the performance of the PPM
family of statistical compressors.

The archive file format of bzip2 (.bz2) is incompatible with that of its
predecessor, bzip (.bz).

File tests each argument in an attempt to classify it. There are three
sets of tests, performed in this order: filesystem tests, magic number
tests, and language tests. The first test that succeeds causes the
file type to be printed.

Starting with version 4, the file command is not much more than a wrapper
around the "magic" library.

RISC OS Notes:

Usage
-----

File is used by simply typing "file <filename>" to identify the content
of a file. n.b. file intentionally accepts only RISC OS format filenames,
not Unix format ones like some other ports.

Mawk is an interpreter for the AWK Programming Language. The AWK
language is useful for manipulation of data files, text retrieval and
processing, and for prototyping and experimenting with algorithms. Mawk
is a new awk meaning it implements the AWK language as defined in Aho,
Kernighan and Weinberger, The AWK Programming Language, Addison-Wesley
Publishing, 1988. (Hereafter referred to as the AWK book.) Mawk conforms
to the POSIX 1003.2 (draft 11.3) definition of the AWK language
which contains a few features not described in the AWK book, and mawk
provides a small number of extensions.

Mawk is smaller and much faster than gawk. It has some compile-time
limits such as NF = 32767 and sprintf buffer = 1020.

A simple Unix utility which reads and writes data across network
connections using TCP or UDP protocol. It is designed to be a reliable
"back-end" tool that can be used directly or easily driven by other
programs and scripts. At the same time it is a feature-rich network
debugging and exploration tool, since it can create almost any kind of
connection you would need and has several interesting built-in
capabilities.

Debian description:

Wget is a network utility to retrieve files from the Web
using http and ftp, the two most widely used Internet
protocols. It works non-interactively, so it will work in
the background, after having logged off. The program supports
recursive retrieval of web-authoring pages as well as ftp
sites -- you can use wget to make mirrors of archives and
home pages or to travel the Web like a WWW robot.

Wget works particularly well with slow or unstable connections
by continuing to retrieve a document until the document is fully
downloaded. Re-getting files from where it left off works on
servers (both http and ftp) that support it. Both http and ftp
retrievals can be time stamped, so wget can see if the remote
file has changed since the last retrieval and automatically
retrieve the new version if it has.

Wget supports proxy servers; this can lighten the network load,
speed up retrieval, and provide access behind firewalls.

http://www.gnu.org/software/wget/

wget is normally invoked in a TaskWindow. e.g:

*wget http://www.riscos.com/

Debian description:

Lftp is a file retrieving tool that supports FTP and HTTP protocols under
both IPv4 and IPv6. Lftp has an amazing set of features, while preserving
its interface as simple and easy as possible.

The main two advantages over other ftp clients are reliability and ability
to perform tasks in background. It will reconnect and reget the file being
transferred if the connection broke. You can start a transfer in background
and continue browsing on the ftp site. It does this all in one process. When
you have started background jobs and feel you are done, you can just exit
lftp and it automatically moves to nohup mode and completes the transfers.
It has also such nice features as reput and mirror. It can also download a
file as soon as possible by using several connections at the same time.

Lftp can also be scriptable, it can be used to mirror sites, it lets you
copy files among remote servers (even between FTP and HTTP). It has an
extensive online help. It supports bookmarks, and connecting to several
ftp/http sites at the same time.

This package also includes lftpget - A simple non-interactive
tool for downloading files.

rsync is a program that allows files to be copied to and from remote
machines in much the same way as rcp. It has many more options than
rcp, and uses the rsync remote-update protocol to greatly speed up
file transfers when the destination file already exists.

The rsync remote-update protocol allows rsync to transfer just the
differences between two sets of files across the network link.

ssh is started by typing "ssh user@host " into the command dialogue of Nettle
as an ANSI task. Other options are possible.

There are ongoing issues with escape handling in Unixlib, which happen to
afflict ssh. Input sequences which use escape (e.g. arrow keys) do not
work (but unlike previous versions they won't cause it to exit). And
after initial log in, CR/LR is broken. Type "reset" under unix to fix this.
Please do not report this issues. I thought it better to release this version
as is, to provide some usefulness.

Also unlike previous versions, it should not lock the machine if the
taskwindow is closed before the program exits.

Knews is an X11 based thread-oriented news reader. It is capable of
representing threads as a graphical tree, represents quotations with
different colors and much more.

Also included here is knewsd, a tiny NNTP daemon which can read news
from a spool directory or even from a mail folder hierarchy, for use
when you don't have a real server available. There is no guarantee
that it will work with any client other than knews, so it is not
packaged separately.

Debian description:

XML is a metalanguage to let you design your own markup language.
A regular markup language defines a way to describe information in
a certain class of documents (eg HTML). XML lets you define your
own customized markup languages for many classes of document. It
can do this because it's written in SGML, the international standard
metalanguage for markup languages.

This package provides a library providing an extensive API to handle
such XML data files.

Debian description:

Lua is a programming language originally designed for extending
applications, but also frequently used as a general-purpose,
stand-alone language.

Lua combines simple procedural syntax (similar to Pascal) with
powerful data description constructs based on associative arrays and
extensible semantics. Lua is dynamically typed, interpreted from
bytecodes, and has automatic memory management, making it ideal for
configuration, scripting, and rapid prototyping. Lua is implemented
as a small library of C functions, written in ANSI C, and the
implementation goals are simplicity, efficiency, portability, and low
embedding cost.

OAF is the new Object Activation Framework for GNOME. OAF has a
similar purpose to gnorba, the GNOME 1.x CORBA activation library, and
will replace it for GNOME 2.0.

It allows you to do much more powerful activation queries than gnorba.
Each server is described by an XML file that defines its
attributes. When querying or activating, one may specify complex
requirements using the OAF query language.

Sablotron is a fast, compact and portable XML toolkit implementing
XSLT 1.0, DOM Level2 and XPath 1.0.

The goal of this project is to create a reliable and
fast XSLT processor conforming to the W3C specification, which is
available for public and can be used as a base for multiplatform XML
data distribution systems.

This package includes Sablotron binaries, which need libsablot0 to work.
