Xinfo
An X11 program front end for reading GNU info documents without having to enter emacs. Gives the Info mode the look and feel of a Web browser. However, it does work only with XEmacs.
Xlit
Xlit converts text from one writing system into another. It allows the user to define a transliteration simply by typing the input strings in one window and the strings to which they are to be mapped in another. Xlit can also use external programs such as sed and iconv to perform the transliteration and can load plugins written in Tcl. It can be run without the GUI. Xlit also provides some advanced facilities not found in typical transliteration and encoding conversion programs. It is often necessary to restrict transliteration to particular parts of the text. xlit understands a variety of delimiters and if so instructed will transliterate only the regions enclosed by the specified delimiters or only their complements. It can also convert one type of delimiter to another.
Xmlg
'xml-g' splits an XML file into a pure TextArray and the corresponding XML markup information, so users can examine the text further with simple PCRE matching and memorization of results in the XML tree.
Xmlmp
'xmlmp' facilitates authoring of Unix manpages using XML. It defines the xmlmp 1.x DTD and provides filters that convert documents complying with it to either Unix manpages or HTML.
Xorcist
A library to aid comparing strings to see which bits differ using the XOR operation.
Xsh
XSH is an XML editing tool/programming language that can be used either interactively or for batch-mode XML processing. It may be used to query and modify XML documents. XPath expressions are used to select parts of XML document to be processed. Both the system shell and Perl are accessible from XSH in a very natural way. XSH uses XML::LibXML bindings of gnome-xml2 library in the background level. Features include (among others) the ability to work with multiple DOM trees at once, filesystem-like navigation within the DOM tree using XPATH, the ability to copy/move nodes within a DOM tree or between two DOM trees, a 'while' statement, and a Perl-like 'foreach' statement that lets you iterate commands over a list of strings or nodes.
Yarl
This library provides ways for a Python script to make an URL object and only get its parameters, encoded or not.
Yelp
Help browser for GNOME 2.0 which supports docbook documents, info and man.
Yodl
Yodl is a package that implements a pre-document language and tools to process it. The idea of Yodl is that you write up a document in a pre-language, then use the tools (e.g. yodl2html) to convert it to some final document language. Current converters are for HTML, man, LaTeX SGML and texinfo, a poor- man's text converter and an experimental xml converter. Main document types are "article", "report", "book", "manpage" and "letter". The Yodl document language was designed to be easy to use and extensible.
Yudit
Yudit is a unicode text editor for the X Window System. It can do True Type font rendering, printing, transliterated keyboard input, and handwriting recognition with no dependencies on external engines. Its conversion utilities can convert text between various encodings. Keyboard input maps can also act like text converters for instant transliterations of your text. There is no need for a pre-installed multi-lingual environment. The menus are available in many languages. The program supports handwriting recognition and right-to-left writing, and has built-in printing support and direct TrueType support. You can display and print your text in a combination of TrueType and X11 fonts.
Z--PeerLibrary
PeerLibrary is an free software project developing a collaborative online community where scholars and researchers can discover, read, and discuss scholarly literature all within one site. This project focuses on expediting access to publications, enabling public recordings of analysis and insights on said publications, and encouraging collaboration and openness in the development of science.
Z2tml
'z2html' translates files written in the free Z Document Language to compliant XHTML 1.1. It is both SGML and XML-compliant.
Zeptodb
zeptodb is a small collection of relatively tiny command-line tools for interacting with DBM databases. For the uninitiated, DBM databases are flat (non-relational) a databases; in other words, they are persistent key-value hash tables. Typically they are created via a library for C, Python, Perl, etc. These tools fill in a gap by providing useful command-line tools. Some DBM libraries come with really basic binaries for manipulating the databases, but they are not designed to be very flexible or useful in the real world. These tools may be helpful in scripts, for example, when persistant data storage is needed but when a full database would be overkill. DBM databases offer a constant look-up time for any record in them, as opposed to, say, searching through a text file, which scales linearly with the number of lines in the file. Thus, scripts requiring fast data look-up would benefit greatly from them. These commands may also be useful if, for whatever reason, one would like to manipulate, via the command-line or scripts, DBM databases created by other programs.
Zile Heckert gnu.tiny.png,
GNU Zile is a text editor development kit, so that you can (relatively) quickly develop your own ideal text editor without reinventing the wheel for many of the common algorithms and data-structures needed to do so.
  • It comes with an example implementation of a lightweight Emacs clone, called Zemacs. Every Emacs user should feel at home with Zemacs. Zemacs is aimed at small footprint systems and quick editing sessions (it starts up and shuts down instantly).
  • More editors implemented over the Zile frameworks are forthcoming as the data-structures and interfaces improve: Zz an Emacs inspired editor using Lua as an extension language; Zee a minimalist non-modal editor; Zi a lightweight vi clone; and more...
  • Zile is a collection of algorithms and data-structures that currently support all basic Emacs-like editing features: it is 8-bit clean (though Unicode support is not ready yet), and the number of editing buffers and windows is only limited by available memory and screen space respectively. Registers, minibuffer completion and auto fill are available.
  • Zemacs implements a subset of Emacs with identical function and variable names, continuing the spirit of the earlier Zile editor implemented in C.
Zim
Zim brings wiki-like editing to your local desktop. Every WYSIWYG page is saved as a text file with wiki markup. Pages can contain clickable links to other pages, and are saved automatically. Creating a new page is as easy as linking to a non-existing page. This tool is intended to keep notes, drafts and TODO lists, but also includes extensions for advanced features such as HTML publishing and equation editing.
Mksh
mksh is the MirBSD enhanced version of the Public Domain Korn shell (pdksh), a Bourne-compatible shell which is largely similar to the original AT&T Korn shell; mksh is the only pdksh derivate currently being actively developed. It includes bug fixes and feature improvements, in order to produce a modern, robust shell good for interactive and especially script use.
