It is the fastest bitmap-rendering code for DVI files; on a fairly low-end laptop, it takes less than a second to generate 150 one-formula images. Furthermore, it does not read the postamble, so it can be started before TeX finishes. There is a -follow switch that makes dvipng wait at EOF for further output, unless it finds the POST marker that indicates the end of the DVI. It supports PK and VF fonts, color specials, and more.
EXtrans
eXtrans translates XML documents into other formats or representations. It can output formats HTML, XML, LateX, pictures, sound, or anything else that the python language can manipulate. Those translations are driven by abstract translators (xtrans scripts) embedding python code. The translators are easy to write, since the underlying system habdles all the complicated details of XML parsing, reference resolving, file management and even python programming in a way transparent to the user. This distribution includes GimpClient, a python module for communicating with Gimp. Through it, xtrans scripts can efficiently access a powerful graphics program.

Ibus-table that uses the Sasankadeva layout for typing Bengali or Sanskrit in Bengali script. Sasankadeva (Unicode) is semi-phonetic transliteration keyboard, i.e., a midway between the accuracy of grammatical typing and the ease of phonetic Indic typing. The ease has been ensured in many ways, including spelling statistics, character combinations and multiple options to be used as suits. Along with its own set of input keys, most popular input strings from widely used Avro Phonetic and itrans-Bangla are also supported. Apart from useful well-defined shortcuts that save time while typing, there are fixed phonetic-based layout for all usual character combinations in Indian Bengali, so that the user can practically type without looking at the screen if he chooses to. Also, suggestions come up to be selected from, if one is more comfortable with them. It aims at making an algorithm that provides space for both well-defined inputs with phonetic variations, has sets of methods that suits both professional and layman typing with one or two hands, that are easy to learn and easier to apply. The interface has been built in ibus-table environment. Official website: https://sites.google.com/view/sasankadeva

Man-db
This package provides the man command. This utility is the primary way of examining the on-line help files (manual pages). Other utilities provided include the whatis and apropos commands for searching the manual page database, the manpath utility for determining the manual page search path, and the maintenance utilities mandb, catman, and zsoelim. This package uses the groff suite of programs to format and display the manual pages.
Man2web
'man2web' converts man pages to HTML via a CGI program or the command line. It also handles keyword (apropos) searches and generates section indexes.
Mandoc
Mandoc is a suite of tools compiling mdoc, the roff macro language of choice for BSD manual pages, and man, the predominant historical language for UNIX manuals. It is small, ISO C, ISC-licensed, and quite fast. The main component of the toolset is the mandoc utility program, based on the libmandoc validating compiler, to format output for UTF-8 and ASCII UNIX terminals, HTML 5, PostScript, and PDF.
Md-toc
==Description== The table of contents (a.k.a: TOC) generated by this program is designed to work with several markdown parsers such as the ones used by GitHub and GitLab. Rules for generating the TOC are determined by the selected markdown parser. md-toc aimes infact to be as conformant as possible in respect to each one of them. This was possible by studying the available documentations and by reverse engineering the source codes. GitHub and GitLab have introduced their version of the markdown TOC after md-toc and similar tools were created:
  • in March 2021 GitHub added an interactive TOC button at the top-left of readme files. This system works for markdown and others
  • GitLab added an extension called Table of contents to its Gitlab Flavored Mardown

Features

  • works offline
  • edits file in place using a TOC marker or output to standard output
  • maximum heading level selection (1 to 6)
  • list indentation based on heading, which can optionally be disabled
  • outputs an ordered or unordered TOC list
  • creates anchor links to markdown headings by default or a plain list as alternative
  • checks if heading level is coherent: this avoid creating an erroneous TOC. This feature can be disabled if needed
  • skip any number lines before generating the TOC
  • can read content from standard input
  • handles multiple files at once
  • selection of newline string
  • check if there is difference between existing TOC in file and newly generated one

Metasite extractor
Metasite extractor locates, downloads and packages as much GPL software as possible.
MkDoxy
mkDoxy is to makefiles what Doxygen is to source files: it parses a makefile and produces HTML documentation of available targets and macros. It considers only comments starting with ##, so it's easy to control the documentation that's generated.
