XNotesPlus V3.4.0 makes debut
More than 2 years after the last major release, the Graphics Muse is
pleased to announce a new version of XNotesPlus, a personal information
manager (PIM) for Linux and Unix systems with full featured support for the
Palm Pilot.
Houston, Texas (Nov 12, 2001) -- Michael J. Hammel, the Graphics Muse, is
pleased to announce the release of version 3.4.0 of XNotesPlus, a Personal
Information Manager for the Linux and Unix desktop.
XNotesPlus includes support for all major features on the Palm Pilot,
including Memos, Todo Lists, the Address Book and Calendaring. All
data from each feature can be downloaded from the Pilot, edited within
XNotesPlus and uploaded back to the Pilot. Additionally, backups and
restores of a Pilot PDA can be managed from within XNotesPlus.
XNotesPlus full featured note system includes audio alarms, color coded
projects, date and calendar inserts, text search / export / import, and
integration with the XNotesPlus Address Manager to email notes to other
users.
The Address Manager also includes an integrated envelope printer for
various sized envelopes.
The release of XNotesPlus includes numerous bug fixes, many of which were
serious problems in earlier releases. Users of older versions are highly
encouraged to upgrade.
XNotesPlus is available in both
<a href="http://www.graphics-muse.org/source/XNotesPlus/XNotesPlus-v3.4.0.tar.gz">source</a>
and
<a href="http://www.graphics-muse.org/source/XNotesPlus/XNotesPlus-v3.4.0-Linux-gtk.tar.gz">Red Hat Linux 7.0</a>
dynamically built binary distributions.
Because of the addition of complete Pilot integration and vast stability
improvements, XNotesPlus has reached a new phase in development. As of
this release, XNotesPlus is now considered Shareware. Users are encouraged
to pay $10 or more if they find the program useful in order to continue
development of the application. Payments can be made
via the <a href="http://www.graphics-muse.org/xnots/xnotes.html#payments">Web
site</a> using PayPal.

Subject: hdparm-4.3 : get/set IDE disk parameters
The latest version 4.3 of "hdparm" has been uploaded to
http://www.ibiblio.org/pub/Linux/system/hardware/hdparm-4.3.tar.gz
hdparm is a Linux utility for viewing/manipulating various
IDE drive and driver parameters. Most systems can benefit
from improved performance using a command sequence similar to this:
#!/bin/sh
for d in /proc/ide/hd* ; do
if [ `cat $d/media` = 'disk' ]; then
hdparm -qm8 -qu1 -qc1 -qd1 -qW1 /dev/${d##*/}
elif [ `cat $d/media` = 'cdrom' ]; then
hdparm -qu1 -qd1 /dev/${d##*/}
fi
done
This latest version includes minor fixes for newer kernels/compilers,
and a completely rewritten "-I" (Identify Drive) option, with tons more
information output than previous versions.

===============================================================================
Karma
A powerful programmers toolkit
Introduction
============
Karma is a toolkit for interprocess communications, authentication,
encryption, graphics display, user interface and manipulating the
Karma network data structure. It contains KarmaLib (the structured
libraries and API) and a large number of modules (applications) to
perform many standard tasks.
A wide range of visualisation applications have been developed with
Karma.
Overfile of file layout
=======================
When files and directories are referred to, they are given relative to
the root Karma directory (environment variable KARMABASE if
defined). This is usually /usr/local/karma
Please see the file INSTALL for instructions on how to install Karma.
The update policy for Karma is in the file doc/update-policy
The README.lib file contains documentation for the Karma libraries.
The doc/modules directory contains documentation for the various
Karma modules. This directory may be a little sparse...
The doc/howto directory contains information on how to make good use
of some of the more interesting packages in KarmaLib.
The doc/widgets directory contains information on the Karma Widgets
library. This directory may be a little sparse...
Mailing lists
=============
Please mail any bug reports to: karma-bugs@atnf.csiro.au
No warranty, express or implied should be inferred by this mailing
address.
If you want to be added to the mailing list (to find out what's
changed with Karma), please mail the request to:
karma-request@atnf.csiro.au
This mailing list is VERY important: as bugs are fixed and
enhancements made to Karma, this is your only way of finding out about
these changes. This mailing list only contains announcements of public
releases (i.e. full releases with source code), which occur once or
twice a year. If you want to receive announcements of beta releases
(binary-only distributions), which occur once or twice a month, please
mail the request to:
karma-beta-request@atnf.csiro.au
If you have any suggestions for Karma, please mail them to:
karma-suggestions@atnf.csiro.au
FTP and WWW site
================
Karma is available for anonymous ftp from:
ftp://ftp.atnf.csiro.au/pub/software/karma/
Both the source code and binary distributions are kept here. The
source code is available free of charge. There is also a WWW page for
the library:
http://www.atnf.csiro.au/karma/
The Karma World Wide Web page is: http://www.atnf.csiro.au/karma/
This provides online access to the documentation and ftp site.
You are urged to get the binary distribution if possible, as this will
save you the effort of building from source.
When connecting to the ftp server, check the modification dates on the
source distribution and the binary distribution. If the source
distribution is much newer than the binary distribution you want, this
means that the binary distribution is out of date. Please send an
Email request to:
karma-suggestions@atnf.csiro.au
for a rebuilt version to be made available. I don't have local access
to many machines, so I don't rebuild automatically for every
platform.

KarmaLib
A Structured Library for Signal and Image Processing and Visualisation
Karma is a package for signal and image processing applications. It
contains KarmaLib (the structured library and API) and a large number of
modules (applications) to perform many standard tasks.
KarmaLib provides routines to simplify the interface to the operating system.
This includes process management and a powerful connection package. Using a
Connection Management tool, the applications developer can launch and
connect a number of modules (processes) on a network with ease. The
communications support in KarmaLib forms one of the major components to the
library. Full authentication and encyption support is included, making the
development of secure, network-aware applications trivial.
It also provides a highly extensible, recursive, heirarchical data structure
with extensive library support. This data structure may be accessed in a very
portable, generic fashion by applications and may also be accessed directly
when speed is critical. By supplying powerful library routines, data
structures may be accessed in an abstract way, removing the need for the
applications programmer to write code to deal with complex data structures
while also allowing users to pass increasingly complex data structures to
modules without the need for recompiliation.
The applications programmer is left to concentrate on processing simple
sub-structures (typically 1, 2 or 3 dimensional arrays) without incurring
any processing overhead. Tiling of multi dimensional arrays is supported
transparently, and, using special indexing techniques (also transparent to
the application), incur no performance overhead.
The library also supplies routines to allow the programmer to transfer data
structures as objects to and from named objects (disc files and network
connections) without requiring the programmer to pay any attention to data
formats, byte swapping machines, word sizes, etc. All data transfers are
highly optimised to take advantage of the features of any particular platform
and operating system.
In addition, data structures may be automatically memory mapped from disc
into the process address space, yielding enormous peformance increases when
reading large data structures from disc, and also saving swap space.
Another major component of KarmaLib is the display support. The display
system both provides an abstract interface to the underlying graphics system
(ie. the X window system), and also provides much higher level functionality
than many graphics libraries. As well as supporting simple geometric
primitives and text display, a powerful and flexible image display system is
included. This allows the direct mapping of application data structures
(ie. 2-D and 3-D arrays) to display windows (canvases). These images may be
animated at high speed (such as in a movie tool). The complex machinery
required to handle window resize and refresh events, as well as other events
(ie. mouse events) is built into the display system.
Other facilities such as graphics overlay lists (which are easily networked
and shared amongst processes), image editing (a simple painting mechanism,
also newtork shareable) and axes display are also supplied.
KarmaLib is structured into many "packages", which are collections of
routines. All the routines in each package have a designated prefix.
For example, the data structure manipulation routines all have the prefix:
ds_
The include file needed for each package is based on the common prefix.
For example: karma_ds.h
The packages are also layered. Level 1 packages are the lowest level, and
depend directly on the operating system. Higher level packages are
dependent on one or more packages at lower levels. A package at one level is
not dependent on any other package at the same or higher level.
The number of letters in a package's prefix indicates the level of the
package. So, for example, the data structure manipulation routines are a
level 2 package.
In many cases, certain functionality is provided in packages at various
levels. With few exceptions, the highest level packages are recommended for
use, as these provide the greatest flexibility, ease of use and are also more
highly optimised.
The library is divided into a number of individual libraries. The "core"
library is linked with -lkarma . This library depends on the Operating
System, standard C, math and termcap(3) libraries.
For normal Unix systems, link with (using cc as your linker):
-lkarma -ltermcap -lm
For the VX/MVX, link with:
-lkarma -ltask -lm
The X11 interface to Karma must be linked with: -lkarmaX11 -lXext -lX11
The XView interface to Karma must be linked with:
-lkarmaxview -lxview -lolgx -lX11
The Xt interface to Karma must be linked with:
-lkarmaXt -lXt -lX11
The Karma graphics library must be linked with zero or more other libraries,
depending on the platform.
For X11 based graphics, compile with:
-DX11
and link with:
-lkarmagraphics -lXext -lX11
For VX based graphics, link with:
-lkarmagraphics -lkarmavx -lwm
The Karma Widgets library is a collection of Xt widgets in alpha development:
the normal structure of Karma is not followed here: not sure how to
structure it yet. The documentation is in the source files :-)
Below is a brief table of all the packages and the routines which they
are comprised of. For the complete API for a package, see the manual pages
or the Karma WWW page (http://www.atnf.csiro.au/karma/).
