Summary : ATT Research Korn Shell 93, ksh 93
Description :
The ksh93 package contains Korn Shell 93, ksh. Ksh is a command interpreter
intended for both interactive and shell script use. Ksh's command language
is a superset of the Bourne shell, sh. Ksh has the functionality of other
scripting languages such as awk, icon, perl, rexx, and tcl. Ksh is
compatible with earlier versions of ksh. Ksh is extensible.
Ksh is intended to conform to the Shell Language Standard developed by the
IEEE POSIX 1003.2 Shell and Utilities Language Committee.
Ksh was developed by David Korn and others at AT&T's Research Lab.
Install the ksh93 package if you want to use the standard ksh shell.

=====BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE=====
18th International Conference and Exposition on
TESTING COMPUTER SOFTWARE
Theme: Meeting the New Challenges of Testing
June 18-22, 2001
Washington, D.C. * Hyatt Regency (Bethesda) * USA
(Conference: June 20-22; Workshops/Tutorials: June 18-19)
In cooperation with:
Association for Computing Machinery (ACM) SIGSoft
American Society for Quality (ASQ) Software Division
IEEE Reliability Society
Software Technology Support Center (STSC)
* * * * * *
The general sessions of the Conference on Testing Computer Software will
address major issues of concern to the developers and users of software.
The theme of the Conference "Meeting the New Challenges of Testing"
focuses on providing practical and essential solutions to the software
development profession, and the users of computer software at all levels.
Tom Gilb's topic will be "Real Time Priority and Risk Management for World
Class Software Quality." He will discuss that world-class software quality
cannot be achieved using conventional thinking. Scarce human and time
resources must be managed in a dynamic way; with regard to multiple
stakeholder values and actual resource consumption. And multitudes of
potential threats to success must be identified and managed.
Warren S. Reid's will discuss "Is That Your Final Answer? Surviving Cross
Examination in the Courtroom." Lawsuits involving large-scale system
failures and dot.com failures are one of the fastest growing areas of
litigation in the legal profession today. Unexpectedly you may find
yourself in a courtroom with an unhappy vendor or customer. To stave off
being second-guessed, you will need to know how to perform, communicate,
and document your work in a way it will survive a courtroom test, and to
present your position with professional aplomb on the witness stand.
John Musa will cover "Efficient Testing with a Measure to Select Testing
Strategies." The problem of how to select the most efficient testing
strategies will be addressed. The market forces that are making it more
and more imperative to improve testing efficiency will be explored. The
requirements for selecting a measure to evaluate testing strategies and
tools will be summarized. A proposal for a measure is presented, along
with sufficient details of its application to show that most of the
potential problems have been addressed.
Edward Jones will present "Educators Join the Fray -- Tester Training for
Undergraduates" He will describe the efforts to expose undergraduate
students to the practice and principles of software testing. The goals of
this effort are three-fold: (1) give students hands-on experience in the
fundamentals of testing; (2) to transfer a quality-centric value system
(attitude towards testing/quality); (3) to transfer testing skills and
attitude into the undergraduate curriculum.
Simon Mills will explore "A World-Wide Web of Intrigue -- Deceptive
Testing." His talk covers the new issues related to e-commerce
applications, and the many old issues surfacing under a new guise. He will
present case study experiences to reflect "new challenges" as being
reflections of yesterdays problems.
...
The Conference will conclude with the wrap-up session: "Conference
Reflections - and a few surprises thrown in!" Marnie Hutcheson will
expertly summarize: What we did; Where we've been; Where we're going.
* Thirty-two Concurrent Sessions divided into four parallel tracks present
a wide variety of topics and issues in major areas of: Management,
Automation, Technology, Requirements, Practices, Web and Case Studies.
* Pre-Conference (June 18-19) Workshops (2 days) and Tutorials (1 day)
will present comprehensive technical sessions for software testing
practitioners. These sessions will provide detailed training on major
software testing technologies, tools and methodologies.
* Networking with participants interested in specialized topics will be
facilitated by Birds-of-a-Feather Sessions and Lunch Discussion Groups.
* The Conference Volume (including the presentations and proceedings
of the sessions) will be a valuable reference for testing projects.
* The Testing Tools vendors exhibit will present the latest in products
and services to support software and applications testing.

Subject: PIKT, Problem Informant/Killer Tool, v1.13.0 released
Date: Fri, 11 May 2001 20:38:00 GMT
=====BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE=====
PIKT, Problem Informant/Killer Tool, v1.13.0 has been released.
PIKT, an innovative new paradigm for administering heterogeneous networked
workstations, is a cross-platform, multi-functional toolkit for monitoring
systems, reporting and fixing problems, and managing system configurations.
You can also use PIKT as a basis for managing system security. PIKT
consists of an embedded scripting language with unique, labor-saving
features; a sophisticated script and system config file preprocessor,
scheduler, and installer; and other useful tools. PIKT is a category buster
with many, many different uses limited only by your ingenuity and imagination.
Highlights of 1.13.0: Introduced the #include|#verbatim "file" ["proc"]
variants, for including process output (not just file content) into config
files. Added the '-I' piktc option, which--together with including process
output--can auto-update your configuration files. Pikt scripts may now be
stand-alone (exist outside of .alt files) and directly executable (much like
scripts in other languages). Introduced a new, "official" PIKT utility,
piktx, which does remote command execution with PIKT-style macros and
command-line (+H and -H) host lists, also allows concurrent operation from
any PIKT host, not just the piktmaster. Introduced a new alerts.cfg keyword,
execcmd, for registering crontab-like, one-liner command entries in piktd.conf.
Added the new #setdef directive, also other new piktc options. Improved
logging, various operational aspects, and ease of use. Fixed many bugs.
See the "PIKT Changes" section of the distribution NEWS file, also the
ChangeLog file, for further details.
PIKT is distributed under the GNU General Public License. Available now for
GNU/Linux, AIX, FreeBSD, HP-UX, IRIX, OpenBSD, Solaris, and SunOS. (Other
Unix ports may soon be available.) For more info, and complete source code,
documentation, and sample configurations, please visit the PIKT Web site at:

=====BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE=====
Version 1.10.9 of "noteedit" available.
See: http://rnvs.informatik.tu-chemnitz.de/~jan/noteedit/noteedit.html
new features:
tenor clef
The MusiXTeX output sould be better (more equally) spaced
Redo
Undo sould work better.
make install(Thanks to David Faure <david@mandrakesoft.com>)
make uninstall (Thanks to David Faure <david@mandrakesoft.com>)
other features:
* export LilyPond;
* insertion/deletion/modification of notes, rests, dotted notes/rests,
tied notes, slured notes, clefs with/without shift, time signatures,
key signatures, volume signatures, tempo signatures, triplets, repeat
groups with/without special ending and instrument changes on different
staffs;
* stem up/down
* building chords;
* building groups of beamed notes;
* playing on /dev/sequencer (if correctly configured) whereby:
o giving each staff a different voice;
o giving each staff a different channel;
o giving each staff a different reverbation and chorus;
o highlighting the played notes;
o muting staffs;
* lyrics
* export MusiXTeX;
* export PMX;
* export MIDI;
* import MIDI;
* read from MIDI keyboard;
* Application of MIDI event filters to eliminate
some dirty effects (especially on human played MIDI files);
* record from MIDI keyboard;
* saving an restoring the files. The fileformat is similarily to the
format of the music publication program (MUP). So you if you are a MUP
user you have the possibility to convert the files into MIDI and
Postscript. But this is no longer necessary because noteedit can export
MusiXTeX, PMX, MIDI and LilyPond.
