Subject: Nut -- Nutrition Software
Date: Sat, 8 Apr 2000 13:50:33 GMT
=====BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE=====
Nut allows you to record what you eat and analyze your
meals for nutrient composition. The database included is
the USDA Nutrient Database for Standard Reference, Release
13, which contains 6,210 foods.
This database of food composition tables contains values
for calories, protein, carbohydrates, fiber, total fat,
saturated fat, monounsaturated fat, polyunsaturated fat,
and cholesterol; vitamins A, thiamin, riboflavin, niacin,
pantothenic acid, B6, folate, B12, C, and E; and minerals
calcium, copper, iron, magnesium, manganese, phosphorus,
potassium, selenium, sodium, and zinc. Nutrient levels
are expressed as a percentage of the "Daily Values,"
the familiar standard of food labeling in the United
States. In addition, levels of the omega-6 and omega-3
polyunsaturated fatty acids are shown, along with average
grams per day of the important PUFAs.
You may search this list of foods and view nutrient values
for different serving sizes; you may also rank foods in
order of level of a particular nutrient. You may change
the daily calorie level to correspond to your personal
metabolism, and the levels for fat, carbohydrates, and
fiber are automatically adjusted. You may add your own
recipes to the database, by creating them from the foods
in the database.
The program is available from:

Subject: apsfilter 5.3.3 - please get this bugfix release
Date: Sat, 8 Apr 2000 13:59:13 GMT
=====BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE=====
Hi folks,
I'm sorry, some more errors in SETUP and Samba remote printing
showed up. So I had to roll some releases in a short time interval.
A reason to make several releases was for me, that the download
counter of my webpage showed, that only *few* people download
patches.
As usual you get apsfilter from:
http://people.freebsd.org/~andreas
New features in 5.3.3
=====================
apsfilter: Bugfix
remote printing on samba printer didn't work
if a SMB_PASSWD has been set. Syntax error fixed.
Docu: if you want class suppport, you need to print banner page
(remove :sh: from /etc/printcap entries)
FreeBSD user: apply a patch to lpr.c
New features in 5.3.2
=====================
Bugfix:
Syntax error in SETUP script
only detected by bash
User selected printer, but due to the syntax error he
gets the printerlist presented again and again.
New features in 5.3.1
=====================
Bugfix:
SETUP: you entered a "printer selection loop" when selecting
uniprint drivers. My sanity check wasn't complete.
Sorry for any inconveniances !!!
New feature:
Set print quality via lpr -C command (CLASS support)
Updated files:
HOWTO-BUGREPORTS: some changes to make things more clear.
TODO: delete one finished entry
New features in 5.3.0
=====================
- - Major enhancements in SETUP, therefore version bump
- checks your version of ghostscript
- is aware of gs version 5.50 and 6.01 printer drivers
- new driver selection mechanism
- fetches list of available printer driver from file
- you can browse/search this list using more
- you select printer driver by number
- sanity check, if the printer driver is present in your gs binary
- at the end of your selection you get a list of printers
as confirmation, that are supported by your driver selection
- you can repeat this step as often as you like until you
choose a valid printer driver
- After printer driver selection you can as usual print test pages
if you like or repeat the step of selection another driver in this
more user friendly manner.
- - upp profile contribution for
Epson LQ-570/870/1070/1170 ESC/P2 24-pin Dot Matrix printer
- - 3rd party additional driver for
HP 812C, 815C, 832C, 880C, 882C, 895C, 932C, 970C
http://www.proaxis.com/~mgelhaus/linux/software/hp880c/hp880c.html
- - Generic Postscript printer Support
- added more resolutions in SETUP script and apsfilter script
- bugfix: some resolutions were missing in apsfilter script
- - Adding driver support information is now more easy, since you only
have to add it to a file setup/printer-<gs-version>
- - internal: download page: enhanced make-release script
produces now diffs from every version to latest version
- - latest apsfilter patches can be found on download page
- - info: new URL -> http://people.freebsd.org/~andreas

Subject: COMMERCIAL: Multi-Boot Configuration Handbook released
Date: Sat, 8 Apr 2000 13:53:35 GMT
Reply-To: rodsmith@rodsbooks.com
=====BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE=====
I'm pleased to announce the release of my latest book, _The Multi-Boot
Configuration Handbook_ (Que, 2000). I wrote this book to cover all the
information I've learned about running multiple OSs on a single x86
computer over a decade of doing just that. Although many OSs come with
guides to help you dual boot between that one OS and one other (typically
DOS or Windows 9x), information on more obscure combinations or
installations of three or more OSs is rarer. My book covers important
multi-OS topics, such as the boot process, partitioning, filesystems, and
cross-platform programs and utilities.
The book's chapters are:
Part I. Overview
1. The Trials and Triumphs of a Multi-OS Computer
2. Operating Systems for x86 Hardware in 2000
Part II. The Boot Process
3. The x86 BIOS: Its Limits and Capabilities
4. Boot Loaders: Simple and Complex
Part III. Partitioning and Partition Management
5. Hard Disk Partition Basics
6. Tools for Disk Partitioning
7. Tips for Optimizing System Performance
8. Modifying Partitions After the Fact
Part IV. Operating System Installation
9. The OS Installation Checklist
10. Installing Specific Operating Systems
11. Finding Help
Part V. Data Exchange
12. Filesystems for Assorted OSs
13. Tools for Accessing Foreign Filesystems
14. Application Data File Formats
Part VI. Common Configurations and Tools
15. Cross-Platform Utilities
16. Cross-Platform Applications
17. Modifying GUI Look and Feel
18. OSs Within OSs: Emulators
Part VII. Network Access
19. TCP/IP Networking
20. File and Printer Sharing
Part VIII. Hardware Considerations
21. Ensuring Adequate Resources
22. Finding Drivers
23. Performing Hardware Upgrades
The book most explicitly covers DOS, Windows 9x, Windows NT and 2000,
OS/2, BeOS, Linux, and FreeBSD. Many of the principles I cover in the
book apply more generally than to these specific OSs, though. The book
comes with a CD-ROM with a wide variety of open source, freeware,
shareware, and demo programs, including LaTeX for several platforms, an
assortment of GNU software, a demo version of the VMware emulator, and
Que's editions of Partition Magic and Boot Magic (these are fully
functional, but not as full-featured as the commercial package).
For more information, including links to the book's listings on Amazon.com
and Fatbrain.com, check my web page:
http://www.rodsbooks.com/multiboot/
(Note: The official release date was 3/30/2000, but it may be a week or
two before it appears in stores, including online retailers.)

Date: Sat, 8 Apr 2000 13:55:28 GMT
=====BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE=====
As most of you know or have heard KDELIBS have been frozen, so I
have just made available a new version of KDE2 Alpha binaries in RPM
and -bin.tar.gz format. Also available are the sources that worked to
compile
these packages.
Most likely there will not be another release of the Alpha binaries until
the end of April. If I update any packages it will be the package itself
and not the whole distribution.
Please read the README file in the directory, this tells you most of what
you need to know to install and update.
These files are available via ftp from:
ftp://ftp.nebsllc.com/kde2/current
or via http at:
http://www.nebsllc.com (follow links for kde2 Alpha
binaries)
You will also be able to find these at (after a few days):
http://www.htw-dresden.de/~s2697
If you want to try koffice from kde 1.x without updating the rest of kde
you may want to try the RPMS from David Faure (faure@kde.org) at (these
were packaged for Mandrake but should work on other RPM based distros):
ftp://sunsite.uio.no/pub/linux/Mandrake-devel/contrib/RPMS/
These binaries are built from CVS as of 03 April
2000 at 11:30pm Eastern Daylight Savings Time (-0500).
Please bring all install questions to the un-official
kde-alpha list at kde-alpha-request@nebsllc.com.
The installs have been tested by me on a RedHat 6.1
and Mandrake 7.0 machine. They have also been reported to work on all
other distributions.
You will need to do a --force and a --nodeps on the rpm
installs.
If you are running prior Alpha's I highly recommend you
update. There are a lot of fixes and some structural
changes in the packages.
You will also find Source tar.gz's in the same
directory.

Web Calendar 1.5
Web Calendar is a perl cgi script. It has an interface
similar to dtcm as seen on Sun Solaris. It supports the
standard calendar editing, searching and popup/flashing
reminders. If the wecald is running on the calendar server,
it can also do mail reminders.
Features:
* Allow your user to set up his/her calendar
* Support public calendars, in which everyone can edit his/her
own calendar entries.
* Display day, week, and month views of the user's calendar
* Schedule single or repeating calendar entries
* Browse and edit another user's calendar, provided permission is given
* Schedule reminders to give the user notice of events
* Two levels of restrict access to the user's calendar
* Merge with other calendars or calendar files
* Edit a group of calendars (meeting events)
* Arrange calendars into meeting groups
* Compare a group of calendars and find schedule conflicts
* Announce meetings by email
* Change the time zone context
To see web calendar in action, please try the testing web calendar server at
