Subject: Arrow 1.0.7 - E-mail program for X
Date: Thu, 30 Sep 1999 22:38:46 GMT
=====BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE=====
Arrow 1.0.7 is now available. Added support for GnuPG. Made the edit window
width resizable. Fixed a couple of POP bugs and added a POP debug window.
Fixed an SMTP bug.
Arrow 1.0's change log: A mailbox list window, and an address that both
support drag-and-drop were added. Save/append/print now from both message
list and message view windows. Insert text files into new messages. Added
default reply-to in preferences that reads the REPLYTO environment variable
if applicable. Custom reply strings can now be set. Various bugs were
fixed.
- ----------
Arrow is an elegant, powerful, graphical interface to electronic mail.
This is not just another single window mail reader. Instead, it displays
each mailbox and message in a separate window, thereby allowing one to
simultaneously open as many mailboxes and view and compose as many messages
as one wishes. This paradigm also allows one to drag-and-drop text between
messages and organize ones mail by dragging messages between mailboxes.
The binary and source distributions can be downloaded from:
http://www.its.caltech.edu/~glenn/arrow/
- ----------
Description:
Arrow is a free e-mail program that was written to address the e-mail needs
of users migrating from Win95 and the Macintosh to Linux. It Currently
supports viewing, composing, and organizing of e-mail, including secure
e-mail via PGP and a spell checker.
More information about Arrow is available at:
http://www.cco.caltech.edu/~glenn/arrow/
To subscribe to the mailing list, send email to:

Subject: aRts-0.3.4 - analog realtime synthesizer
Date: Thu, 30 Sep 1999 22:49:02 GMT
=====BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE=====
aRts 0.3.4 is released.
What is it?
- ------------
aRts is an analog realtime synthesizer which is completely modular. You can
create sounds & music (realtime midi synthesis) using small modules like
oscillators for creating waveforms, various filters, modules for playing
data on your speakers, mixers, faders,... You can build your complete setup
with the gui of the system under KDE.
The aRts server is controlled via CORBA. This design is intended to let
other applications use aRts as synthesizer (or filter provider) and
working together in the creation of music.
Besides all nice changes that happened since aRts 0.3.3, the most important
thing for many people should be that there is a good integration between
the Brahms sequencer (formerly called kooBase) and aRts, which should allow
you to do real composing with aRts on linux.
Requirements:
- -------------
mico, KDE
Changes since arts-0.3.3:
- -------------------------
- Brahms (a really nice sequencer KDE application, formerly called kooBase)
and aRts interoperate now nicely.
- full duplex support, that means you can use it for full duplex effect
processing now (real low latency)!
- audio subsystem features configurable fragment size now, so people
who want to use aRts "just" as audio server, and insist in running
without root rights have a chance now
- put suid functionality in a seperate small C program for security
reasons (this should be easier to overview)
- implemented recording interface for the audioserver, so an equivalent
to the esdmon and esdrec functionality is now available
- mapped instruments now available, so one midi instrument may now
contain a drum map with different samples
- Akai support: added utilities to read Akai Sample CDs & build keymaps
from akai samples and play them in instruments with Synth_PLAY_AKAI
- Session management: while you are in a performace, you can save all
settings, such as instrument setup, mixer parameters, instrument
parameters, and restore them later
- added Synth_MOOG_VCF, a nice 4pole lowpass with resonance (thanks
Andy Mucho for the hint)
- mico-2.3.0 support
- bugfixes
- new version of midisend, which allows keyboard splitting and
similar mapping operations (Emmeran Seehuber)
- new icons for many modules (Harald Lapp)
- new modules: Synth_SQUARE, Synth_FX_CFLANGER, Synth_AUTOPANNER
(Jens Hahn)

Subject: General Exception-Handling/Design by Contract for C Programmers
Date: Thu, 30 Sep 1999 22:50:42 GMT
=====BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE=====
Hello, everyone. I've been working on an exception-handling facility,
called the General Exception-Handling Facility, or GEF, for quite a
while. I started the project for the purpose of obtaining
exception-handling feature in my C programs. Although OSF DCE contained
exception-handling as part of its RPC package, I didn't want to take the
whole DCE RPC package just to have exception-handling.
Anyway, over the years, the code has matured quite well and I even wrote
an article about it in the November 1998 issue of Dr. Dobb's. See my web
page,
http://home.rochester.rr.com/bigbyofrocny/GEF.html
for a link to Dr. Dobb's Journal.
GEF's features are similar to the exception-handling of C++, Java, and
Eiffel, although more consistent with the behavior of Eiffel than the
others. GEF's keywords are as follows, although not limited to:
(1) gef_try
(2) gef_catch
(3) gef_finally
(4) gef_end
For control statements,
(5) gef_retry
(6) gef_throw
(7) gef_break (Unique feature)
For contract programming,
(8) gef_preconditions
(9) gef_postconditions
(10) gef_invariants
For command-line processing,
(11) --gef-preconditions={true, false} (Default = true)
(12) --gef-postconditions={true, false}
(13) --gef-invariants={true, false}
(14) --gef-enable
(15) --gef-disable
For protecting specific handler from being disabled, use "required"
modifier for try blocks,
(16) gef_try_required
To repeat a gef_try block for a number of iterations until a try block
succeeds:
(17) gef_repeat_try(n)
To instruct GEF to skip the finally block because the routine will not
need to do anything special on exit,
(18) gef_try_except_finally
There are also "required" versions:
(19) gef_try_except_finally_required
(20) gef_repeat_try_required(n)
(21) gef_repeat_try_except_finally_required(n)
There are 3 separate libraries:
(22) #include <gef/ansi.h> -lgef_ansi
(23) #include <gef/posix.h> -lgef_posix
(24) #include <gef/pthreads.h> -lgef_pthreads
The ANSI library is for plain vanilla C programs. The Posix library is
for non-threaded Posix operating systems (support for signal, sigaction,
sigmask, ...). The last is a PosixThreads version of GEF.
GEF can handle synchronous and asynchronous Posix signals in a
non-threaded, as well as a threaded, Posix program. However, the support
for asynchronous signals in a Posix threaded program is an extension,
since Posix does not require pthread_getspecific to be async safe,
although,for most implementations of Posix-compliant OS's,
pthread_getspecific() is async-safe. However, this restriction does NOT
apply to synchronous signals, since they are really traps, like SIGFPE
and SIGSEGV. If you want to use asynchronous signals in your threaded
program, have one thread wait on all signals, while all of the other
threads block all signals. Then, the thread which receives the signals
can accept them and process them in an orderly fashion.
The license for the GEF source/code is the LGPL for the shared libraries
and the GPL for the source and static library (.a). Please use it and
let me know how you are fairing!
By the way, see http://www.eiffel.com for some good online papers on
Design by Contract and Exception-Handling.

=====BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE=====
Announcing release 1.0 of Hoard, a fast, scalable, and
memory-efficient allocator for shared-memory multiprocessors.
Hoard effectively solves the heap contention problem caused
by multiple threads calling malloc() and free() {or new and
delete}.
Hoard has been tested on both Linux and Solaris, and should work
on any UNIX platform that supports pthreads. It is being released
under the GNU LGPL, and is available from
<http://www.cs.utexas.edu/users/emery>
Hoard is a drop-in replacement for malloc(), etc.: just link
hoard.o before your other object files.
Hoard's workings are described in a technical report (submitted
for publication) available on the website and included in the
distribution.

Subject: WANTED: new maintainer for vacation
Date: Thu, 30 Sep 1999 22:55:23 GMT
Reply-To: h.milz@seneca.muc.de
=====BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE=====
I am looking for a new maintainer for the vacation package. Reason:
procmail is far more versatile and makes vacation redundant, and I don't
even use vacation myself, so I have no incentive to maintain it. When I
ported it from *BSD to Linux years ago nothing compared to it but today
nobody really needs it IMHO. I don't want to invest in a tool which
nobody needs :-)
Until a new maintainer is found, CD distributors should consider vacation
unmaintained and unsupported. In fact is has been unsupported for quite
a while.
Thanks for your understanding.

FAST FontAsteroids 1.2
Based on the original Asteroids game console, a spaceship with inertial
control has to be manouvered through an "asteroid field" consisting of
words of a web page. During the game the player fragments the already
mangled page content from sentences to words, from words to characters,
and characters to nothingness.
Effectively, this game is the game with the most levels in the world - every
webpage could be played as a level ... and there are millions of URLs.
The game was first presented to the public during the net_condition
Exhibition Sept. -Dec. 1999 at the ZKM, Karlsruhe, Germany (www.zkm.de).

Subject: Code Medic 1.0.4 - UNIX debugging environment
Date: Thu, 30 Sep 1999 22:33:56 GMT
=====BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE=====
Code Medic 1.0.4 is now available. Added an run argument input field. Fixed
a few stack window and variable tree window parse bugs.
Overview:
The standard UNIX debugger, gdb, is extremely powerful, but its command
line interface can be quite intimidating and painful to use. Code Medic
provides an elegant graphical interface to gdb's most important features.
The binary and source distributions can be downloaded from:
http://www.cco.caltech.edu/~glenn/medic/
- ----------
Description:
Code Medic is a free graphical debugger that provides access to the power
of gdb with an intuitive front end. It currently supports opening multiple
source windows at once, setting/clearing breakpoints while the program is
running, watching variables change in the variable tree as you step through
code (even with nested structs), text searching through source, and
integration with Code Crusader to provide a rapid, efficient develop-debug
cycle.
More information about Code Medic is available at:
http://www.cco.caltech.edu/~glenn/medic/
