Blade's MP3 Encoder (BladeEnc) is a freeware MP3 encoder. It is based on
the same ISO compression routines as mpegEnc, so you can expect roughly
the same, or better, quality . The main difference is the appearance and
speed. BladeEnc doesn't have a nice, user-friendly interface like mpegEnc,
but it is more than three times faster, and it works with several popular
front-end graphical user interfaces.

DBperl is a database access Application Programming Interface (API)
for the Perl Language. The DBperl API Specification defines a set of
functions, variables and conventions that provide a consistent database
interface independent of the actual database being used.

M(y)sql.pm and DBD::mSQL(mysql) implement two different approaches to
communicate with an mSQL or mysql server. DBD::mSQL(mysql) is built
upon the DBI, the generic Perl Database Interface. It brings you an
identical interface to a broad variety of databases and is in this
regard comparable to ODBC. The advantage of the DBI approach is
portability and interoperability. M(y)sql.pm are the elder species.
They were written before DBI was available but inspired by an early
draft of the DBI specification. As they have been circulating longer
they are more mature and pretty stable. They're also more complete
than DBD::mSQL and DBD::mysql.

PerlMagick is an objected-oriented Perl interface to ImageMagick. Use the
module to read, manipulate, or write an image or image sequence from within
a Perl script. This makes it very suitable for Web CGI scripts.

This version is compiled with English language support.

Aspell is an Open Source spell checker designed to eventually replace
Ispell. Its main feature is that it does a much better job of coming
up with possible suggestions than Ispell does. In fact recent tests
shows that it even does better than Microsoft Word 97's spell checker
in some cases. In addition it has both compile time and run time
support for other non English languages. Aspell also doubles as a
powerful C++ library with C and Perl interfaces in the works.

Aspell is an Open Source spell checker.
This package includes static Libraries and header files for aspell.

Working Group 1003.2).

Bind includes the named name server, which resolves host names to IP
addresses (and vice versa), and a resolver library (a set of routines
in a system library that provide the interface for programs to use when
accessing domain name services).  A name server is a network service which
enables clients to name resources or objects and share this information
with other network machines.  The named name server can be used on
workstations as a caching name server, but is generally only needed on
one machine for an entire network.

This package includes configurations for a simple caching-only name server.

The bind-devel package contains all the include files and the
library required for DNS (Domain Name Service) development

as well as other information about registered domains and network
addresses.

You should install bind-utils if you need to get information from DNS name
servers.

Binutils is a collection of utilities necessary for compiling programs. It
includes the assembler and linker, as well as a number of other
miscellaneous programs for dealing with executable formats.

This is the GNU parser generator which is mostly compatible with yacc. Many
programs use this as part of their build process. Bison is only needed on
systems that are used for development.

This CDDA reader distribution ('cdparanoia') reads audio from the CDROM
directly as data, with no analog step between, and writes the data to a file
or pipe as .wav, .aifc or as raw 16 bit linear PCM.

Writes audio CD-Rs in disc-at-once (DAO) mode allowing
control over pre-gaps (length down to 0, nonzero audio
data) and sub-channel information like ISRC codes. All
data that is written to the disc must be specified with
a text file. Audio data may be in WAVE or raw format.

Cdrecord allows you to create CD's on a CD-Recorder (SCSI/ATAPI).
Supports data, audio, mixed, multi-session and CD+ discs etc.

This package includes cdrecord-1.8a22, cdda2wav-1.0, and
mkisofs-1.12b5.

Remember to customize /etc/default/cdrecord before using cdrecord.

CVS is a front end to the rcs(1) revision control system which extends
the notion of revision control from a collection of files in a single
directory to a hierarchical collection of directories consisting of
revision controlled files.  These directories and files can be
combined together to form a software release.  CVS provides the
functions necessary to manage these software releases and to control
the concurrent editing of source files among multiple software
developers.

daVinci is a universal, generic visualization system for automatic generation
of high-quality drawings of directed graphs. Graphs are frequently used in
computer applications as a general data structure to represent objects and
relationships between them. They are used to implement hierarchies,
dependency structures, networks, configurations, dataflows, and so on. In
despite of this manifold demand, techniques to visualize such graphs are not
common in today's computer applications. So frequently a user has to deal
with uncomfortable textual interfaces or poor ad-hoc drawings of graphs,
because high-quality graph layout is difficult to implement and reusable
tools for graph visualization are often hard to find.

The Data Display Debugger (DDD) is a popular graphical user interface for
command-line debuggers such as GDB, DBX, JDB, WDB, XDB, the Perl debugger,
and the Python debugger. Besides ``usual'' front-end features such as
viewing source texts, DDD has become famous through its interactive
graphical data display, where data structures are displayed as graphs. A
simple mouse click dereferences pointers or views structure contents,
updated each time the program stops. Using DDD, you can reason about your
application by watching its data, not just by viewing it execute lines of
source code.

Other DDD features include: debugging of programs written in Ada, C, C++,
Chill, Fortran, Java, Modula, Pascal, Perl, and Python; machine-level
debugging; hypertext source navigation and lookup; breakpoint, watchpoint,
backtrace, and history editors; array plots; undo/redo; preferences and
settings editors; program execution in terminal emulator window; debugging
on remote host; on-line manual; extensive help on the Motif user interface;
command-line interface with full editing, history, and completion
capabilities.

For more info on DDD see http://www.cs.tu-bs.de/softech/ddd/.

Handy library of utility functions.  Development libs and headers
are in glib-devel.

Static libraries and header files for the support library for the GIMP's X
libraries, which are available as public libraries.  GLIB includes generally
useful data structures.

Contains the standard libraries that are used by multiple programs on
the system. In order to save disk space and memory, as well as to
ease upgrades, common system code is kept in one place and shared between
programs. This package contains the most important sets of shared libraries,
the standard C library and the standard math library. Without these, a
Linux system will not function. It also contains national language (locale)
support and timezone databases.

To develop programs which use the standard C libraries (which nearly all
programs do), the system needs to have these standard header files and object
files available for creating the executables.

This is the Linux kernel NFS daemon. It is based on linux-nfs 0.4.22.
It is tested on Linux/alpha and Linux/x86 running glibc 2.0.7.

****************************** WARNING ******************************

1. To use this package kernel must be compiled with kernel NFS server
   support. Please use Linux 2.1.130 or above.
2. This RPM is provided only as a convenience for keeping the system clean.
   It is not meant to be installed without thinking.
3. /etc/rc.d/init.d/{nfs,nfsfs} conflict with those provided by initscripts.
   Therefore you need to rename the two files from initscripts (if you
   wish to preserve them) then use "rpm -Uvh --replacefiles" to
   install knfsd RPM's.

This package contains only rpc.kstatd and NFS client start-up script
/etc/rc.d/init.d/nfsfs. They are enough to support reliable NFS locking
when the server side is running statd and lockd.

less is a text file viewer much like 'more', only better.

The libPropList library, hereafter referred to as PL, uses an opaque
data type to represent a tree structure made of strings, data blocks,
arrays and dictionaries (key-value pair lists). This structure can be
manipulated, written out to and read in from a file, and synchronized
with the contents of a file. The purpose of PL is to closely mimick the
behaviour of the property lists used in GNUstep/OPENSTEP (there formed
with the NSString, NSData, NSArray and NSDictionary classes) and to be
compatible with it. PL enables programs that use configuration or
preference files to make these compatible with GNUstep/OPENSTEP's user
defaults handling mechanism, without needing to use Objective-C or
GNUstep/OPENSTEP themselves.

This package contains libraries and header files for developing
programs which use libPropList.

The libpng package contains a library of functions for creating and
manipulating PNG (Portable Network Graphics) image format files.  PNG is
a bit-mapped graphics format similar to the GIF format.  PNG was created to
replace the GIF format, since GIF uses a patented data compression
algorithm.

Libpng should be installed if you need to manipulate PNG format image
files.

The libpng-devel package contains the header files and static libraries
necessary for developing programs using the PNG (Portable Network
Graphics) library.

If you want to develop programs which will manipulate PNG image format
files, you should install libpng-devel.  You'll also need to install the
libpng package.

information about files that are open by the processes running on a UNIX
system.

This a terminal based WWW browser. While it does not make any attempt
at displaying graphics, it has good support for HTML text formatting,
forms, and tables.

LyX is a modern approach of writing documents with a computer
which breaks with the tradition of the obsolete typewriter
concept.  It is designed for people who want a professional
output with a minimum of time effort, without becoming specia-
lists in typesetting.  Compared to common word processors LyX
will increase the productivity a lot, since most of the type-
setting will be done by the computer, not the author.  With LyX
the author can concentrate on the contents of his writing,
since the computer will take care of the look.

The program make is used to coordinate the compilation and
linking of a set of sources into a program, recompiling
only what is necessary, thus saving a developer a lot of time.
In fact, make can do a lot more - read the info docs.

Mkinitrd creates filesystem images for use as initial ramdisk (initrd)
images.  These ramdisk images are often used to preload the block
device modules (SCSI or RAID) needed to access the root filesystem.

In other words, generic kernels can be built without drivers for any
SCSI adapters which load the SCSI driver as a module.  Since the kernel
needs to read those modules, but in this case it isn't able to address
the SCSI adapter, an initial ramdisk is used.  The initial ramdisk is
loaded by the operating system loader (normally LILO) and is available
to the kernel as soon as the ramdisk is loaded.  The ramdisk image
loads the proper SCSI adapter and allows the kernel to mount the root
filesystem.  The mkinitrd program creates such a ramdisk using
information found in the /etc/conf.modules file.

PHP: Hypertext Preprocessor Version 3.0 is an HTML-embedded scripting
language. Much of its syntax is borrowed from C, Java and Perl with a
couple of unique PHP-specific features thrown in. The goal of the
language is to allow web developers to write dynamically generated
pages quickly.

The Linux kernel allows new kernel pieces to be loaded and old ones to
be unloaded while the kernel continues to run. These loadable pieces
are called modules, and can include device drivers and filesystems among
other things. This package includes programs to load and unload programs
both automatically and manually.

This is the distribution for the demo of the new mp3enc MPEG Layer-3
demo encoder. Use of this encoder is subject to the license conditions
laid forth in the documentation.

The MPEG Library is a collection of C routines to decode MPEG movies
and dither them in a variety of colour schemes.  Most of the code in
the library comes directly from the Berkely MPEG player, an
X11-specific implementation that works fine, but suffers from minimal
documentation and a lack of modularity.

mpg123 is a real time MPEG Audio Player for Layer 1,2 and Layer3.

problems, finding the roots of nonlinear equations, integrating
ordinary functions, manipulating polynomials, and integrating ordinary
differential and differential-algebraic equations. It is easily
extensible and customizable via user-defined functions written in
Octave's own language, or using dynamically loaded modules written in
C++, C, Fortran, or other languages.

Perl is an interpreted language optimized for scanning arbitrary text
files, extracting information from those text files, and printing reports
based on that information.  It's also a good language for many system
management tasks.  The language is intended to be practical (easy to use,
efficient, complete) rather than beautiful (tiny, elegant, minimal).

user-specified system of ordinary differential equations.

PostgreSQL Data Base Management System (formerly known as Postgres, then as
Postgres95).

PostgreSQL is an enhancement of the POSTGRES database management system, a
next-generation DBMS research prototype.  While PostgreSQL retains the
powerful data model and rich data types of POSTGRES, it replaces the PostQuel
query language with an extended subset of SQL. PostgreSQL is free and the

PostgreSQL development is being performed by a team of Internet developers who
all subscribe to the PostgreSQL development mailing list. The current
coordinator is Marc G. Fournier (scrappy@postgreSQL.org). This team is now
responsible for all current and future development of PostgreSQL.

The authors of PostgreSQL 1.01 were Andrew Yu and Jolly Chen. Many others have
contributed to the porting, testing, debugging and enhancement of the code.
The original Postgres code, from which PostgreSQL is derived, was the effort
of many graduate students, undergraduate students, and staff programmers
working under the direction of Professor Michael Stonebraker at the University
of California, Berkeley.

The original name of the software at Berkeley was Postgres. When SQL
functionality was added in 1995, its name was changed to Postgres95. The name
was changed at the end of 1996 to PostgreSQL.

PostgreSQL runs on Solaris, SunOS, HPUX, AIX, Linux, Irix, FreeBSD, and most
flavours of Unix.

This package includes only the clients and client libraries needed to access
an PostgreSQL server. The server is included in the main package. If all you
need is to connect to another PostgreSQL server, the  this is the only
package you need to install.

In this package there are client libraries available for C, C++ and PERL, as
well as several command-line utilities you can use to manage your databases
on a remote PostgreSQL server.

This package contains header files and libraries required to compile
applications that are talking directly to the PostgreSQL backend server.

The PPP daemon handles the details of setting up a PPP link including
configuring the network interface and performing the PPP negotiations.
It requires a PPP driver in the kernel, either compiled in or loaded
as a module.

procinfo is a package to allow you to get useful information
from /proc.  /proc is the kernel filesystem.  This is a place
you can go to acquire information from your running kernel.

Red Hat Linux uses procmail for all local mail delivery.  In addition
to regluar mail delivery duties, procmail can be used to do many
different automatic filtering, presorting, and mail handling jobs.
It is the basis for the SmartList mailing list processor.  This compile has
support for qpopper hashed mail subdirectories for large numbers of users.

This package is compiled with only local mail spool locking support.
To enable NFS mail spool locking support it needs to be rebuilt.

The procps package contains a set of system utilities which provide
system information.  Procps includes ps, free, sessreg, skill, snice,
tload, top, uptime, vmstat, w, and watch.  The ps command displays
a snapshot of running processes.  The top command provides a
repetitive update of the statuses of running processes.  The free
command displays the amounts of free and used memory on your system.
Sessreg is a simple program for managing utmp/wtmp entries for xdm
sessions.  The skill command sends a terminate command (or another
specified signal) to a specified set of processes.  The snice
command is used to change the scheduling priority of specified
processes.  The tload command prints a graph of the current system
load average to a specified tty.  The uptime command displays the
current time, how long the system has been running, how many users
are logged on and system load averages for the past one, five and
fifteen minutes.  The w command displays a list of the users who
are currently logged on and what they're running.  The watch program
watches a running program.  The vmstat command displays virtual
memory statistics about processes, memory, paging, block I/O, traps
and CPU activity.

ProFTPD is a highly configurable ftp daemon for unix and unix-like
operating systems.

ProFTPD is designed to be somewhat of a "drop-in" replacement for wu-ftpd.
Full online documentation is available at http://www.proftpd.org,
including a server configuration directive reference manual.

Python in an interpreted, object orientated scripting language. If contains
support for dynamic loading of objects, classes, modules, and exceptions.
Adding interfaces to new system libraries through C code is straightforward,
making Python easy to use in custom settings.

This Python package includes most of the standard Python modules, along with
modules for interfacing to the Tix widget set for Tk and RPM.

Files originally packaged seperatedly by Red Hat into python-devel and tkinter
are also included into this package, so it is all-in-one!

files, the Qt meta object compiler, man pages, HTML documentation and
example programs.  See http://www.troll.no for more information about
Qt, or file:/usr/lib/qt/html/index.html for Qt documentation in HTML.

readiso reads and compares images of ISO9660 file systems. In other words,
it is used to read and compare ISO-images of CD-ROMs. Four general
operating modes are provided: readiso to read an image and write to
a file, cmpiso to binary compare an ISO file with a CD, isoinfo to
read the ISO header and display some info on it, and finally
isosize to display the size of an image. (At the moment, isoinfo
does not display much info.)

The "readline" library will read a line from the terminal and return it,
allowing the user to edit the line with the standard emacs editing keys.
It allows the programmer to give the user an easier-to-use and more
intuitive interface.

The "readline" library will read a line from the terminal and return it,
using prompt as a prompt.  If prompt is null, no prompt is issued.  The
line returned is allocated with malloc(3), so the caller must free it when
finished.  The line returned has the final newline removed, so only the
text of the line remains.

rsync is a replacement for rcp that has many more features.

rsync uses the "rsync algorithm" which provides a very fast method for
bringing remote files into sync. It does this by sending just the
differences in the files across the link, without requiring that both
sets of files are present at one of the ends of the link beforehand.

A technical report describing the rsync algorithm is included with
this package.

This is a CGI program to keep record of the raw hits of a web page.
It generates a GIF image of the number of hits and returns to the browser
as an in-lined image. The program also has a run-time option not to show
the digit images, this way the hits can be kept without displaying it.
The hits can be be monitored without incrementing from a separate page
as well. Almost all of the features are run-time options. This program
started as a fun to play with CGI programming but due to enormous interest,
feature request, input from thousands of you, it has turned in to the most
configurable counter on the whole World Wide Web.

This package requires you to create user httpd and group httpd first and
setup apache to be run as it (rather than as nobody).
