- AUCTeX: An integrated environment for writing TeX/LaTeX documents
(package: auctex)
- AUCTeX is a comprehensive customizable integrated environment for
writing input files for TeX/LaTeX using GNU Emacs.
AUCTeX lets you run TeX/LaTeX and other LaTeX-related tools, such as a output
filters or post processor from inside Emacs. Especially `running LaTeX' is
interesting, as AUCTeX lets you browse through the errors TeX reported, while
it moves the cursor directly to the reported error, and displays some
documentation for that particular error. This will even work when the
document is spread over several files.
AUCTeX automatically indents your `LaTeX-source', not only as you write it --
you can also let it indent and format an entire document. It has a special
outline feature, which can greatly help you `getting an overview' of a
document.
Apart from these special features, AUCTeX provides a large range of handy
Emacs macros, which in several different ways can help you write your LaTeX
documents fast and painlessly.
All features of AUCTeX are documented using the GNU Emacs online
documentation system. That is, documentation for any command is just a key
click away!
AUCTeX is written entirely in Emacs-Lisp, and hence you can easily add new
features for your own needs. It was not made as part of any particular
employment or project (apart from the AUCTeX project itself). AUCTeX is
distributed under the `GNU Emacs General Public License' and may therefore
almost freely be copied and redistributed.

- Perl v5 CGI Modules
(package: libcgi-perl)
- This perl 5 library uses objects to create Web fill-out
forms on the fly and to parse their contents. It provides a simple
interface for parsing and interpreting query strings passed to CGI
scripts. However, it also offers a rich set of functions for
creating fill-out forms. Instead of remembering the syntax for HTML
form elements, you just make a series of perl function calls. An
important fringe benefit of this is that the value of the previous
query is used to initialize the form, so that the state of the form
is preserved from invocation to invocation.
This is the replacement for the now obsolete CGI-modules package.
This package is destined to replace libcgi-pm-perl, but at the
moment libcgi-pm-perl (as in the library CGI.pm) serves as the rapid
prototyping version, and may be more featureful than this package.

- A description on how to use and modify libpng (version 1.2.X)
(package: libpng12-dev)
- This file describes how to use and modify the PNG reference library
(known as libpng) for your own use. There are five sections to this
file: introduction, structures, reading, writing, and modification and
configuration notes for various special platforms. In addition to this
file, example.c is a good starting point for using the library, as
it is heavily commented and should include everything most people
will need. We assume that libpng is already installed; see the
INSTALL file for instructions on how to install libpng.
Libpng was written as a companion to the PNG specification, as a way
of reducing the amount of time and effort it takes to support the PNG
file format in application programs. The PNG specification is available
as RFC 2083 <http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc2083.txt> and as a
W3C Recommendation <http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-png-multi.html>. Some
additional chunks are described in the special-purpose public chunks
documents at <ftp://ftp.uu.net/graphics/png/documents/>. Other information
about PNG, and the latest version of libpng, can be found at the PNG home
page, <http://www.libpng.org/pub/png/>.
- An array processing package modelled after Python-Numeric
(package: python-numarray-doc)
- Numarray is a set of extensions to the Python programming language
which allows Python programmers to efficiently manipulate large sets
of objects organized in grid-like fashion. These sets of objects are
called arrays, and they can have any number of dimensions.
This is a reimplementation of the earlier Numeric module (aka
numpy). For the most part, the syntax of numarray is identical to
that of Numeric, although there are significant differences. The
differences are primarily in new features.
- AutoGen - The Automated Program Generator

This is especially valuable if there are several blocks of such text that must
be kept synchronized. A common example where this would be useful is in
creating and maintaining the code required for processing program options.

- DDD---A Free Graphical Front-End for UNIX Debuggers
(package: ddd-doc)
- DDD survey
The Data Display Debugger (DDD) is a novel graphical user interface to GDB
and DBX, the popular UNIX debuggers. Besides ``usual'' features such as
viewing source texts and breakpoints, DDD provides a graphical data display,
where data structures are displayed as graphs. A sim ple mouse click
dereferences pointers or reveals structure contents. Complex data structures
can be explored incrementally and interactively, using automatic layout if
preferred. Each time the program stops, the data display reflects the
current variable values. DDD has been designed to compete with wellknown
commercial debuggers; however, it is free software, protected by the GNU
general public license. In this paper, we give a quick presentation of DDD
and describe its architecture and basic functionality from a technical point
of view.

- LaTeX2HTML
(package: latex2html)
- LaTeX2HTML is a conversion tool that that converts
documents written in LaTeX to HTML format. In addition, it offers an
easy migration path towards authoring complex hypermedia documents
using familiar word-processing concepts.
LaTeX2HTML replicates the basic structure of a LaTeX document as a
set of interconnected HTML files which can be explored using
automatically generated navigation panels. The cross-references,
citations, footnotes, the table of contents and the lists of figures
and tables, are also translated into hypertext links. Formatting
information which has equivalent ``tags'' in HTML (lists, quotes,
paragraph breaks, type styles, etc.) is also converted
appropriately. The remaining heavily formatted items such as
mathematical equations, pictures or tables are converted to images
which are placed automatically at the correct positions in the final
HTML document.
LaTeX2HTML extends LaTeX by supporting arbitrary hypertext links and
symbolic cross-references between evolving remote documents. It also
allows the specification of conditional text and the inclusion of raw
HTML commands. These hypermedia extensions to LaTeX are available as
new commands and environments from within a LaTeX document."

- Bayesian Classification (AutoClass): Theory and Results
(package: autoclass)
- We describe AutoClass, an approach to unsupervised
classification based upon the classical mixture model, supplemented
by a Bayesian method for determining the optimal classes. We include
a moderately detailed exposition of the mathematics behind the
AutoClass system. We emphasize that no current unsupervised
classification system can produce maximally useful results when
operated alone. It is the interaction between domain experts and
the machine searching over the model space, that generates new
knowledge. Both bring unique information and abilities to the
database analysis task, and each enhances the others' effectiveness.
We illustrate this point with several applications of AutoClass to
complex real world databases, and describe the resulting successes
and failures.
- Bayesian Classification Theory
(package: autoclass)
- The task of inferring a set of classes and class
descriptions most likely to explain a given data set can be placed on
a firm theoretical foundation using Bayesian statistics. Within this
framework, and using various mathematical and algorithmic
approximations, the AutoClass system searches for the most probable
classifications, automatically choosing the number of classes and
complexity of class descriptions. A simpler version of AutoClass
has been applied to many large real data sets, have discovered new
independently-verified phenomena, and have been released as a robust
software package. Recent extensions allow attributes to the
selectively correlated within particular classes, and allow classes
to inherit, or share, model parameters through a class hierarchy. In
this paper we summarize the mathematical foundations of Autoclass.

- Exclusive XML Canonicalization Version 1.0
(package: w3-recs-2002)
- Canonical XML [XML-C14N] specifies a standard serialization of XML that,
when applied to a subdocument, includes the subdocument's ancestor context
including all of the namespace declarations and attributes in the "xml:"
namespace. However, some applications require a method which, to the
extent practical, excludes ancestor context from a canonicalized
subdocument. For example, one might require a digital signature
over an XML payload (subdocument) in an XML message that will not break
when that subdocument is removed from its original message and/or
inserted into a different context.
This requirement is satisfied by Exclusive XML Canonicalization.

specifications merely by passing successfully all the tests provided in
this test suite. It is also incorrect to claim that an implementation is
non compliant with the SOAP Version 1.2 specifications based on its failure
to pass one or more of the tests in this test suite.
- User Agent Accessibility Guidelines 1.0

through its own user interface and through other internal facilities,
including its ability to communicate with other technologies
(especially assistive technologies).
- Web Content Accessibility Guidelines 1.0
(package: w3-recs)
- These guidelines explain how to make Web content accessible
to people with disabilities. The guidelines are intended for all Web
content developers (page authors and site designers) and for developers

accessibility. However, following them will also make Web content more
available to all users, whatever user agent they are using (e.g.,
desktop browser, voice browser, mobile phone, automobile-based personal
computer, etc.) or constraints they may be operating under (e.g., noisy
surroundings, under- or over-illuminated rooms, in a hands-free
environment, etc.). Following these guidelines will also help people
find information on the Web more quickly. These guidelines do not
discourage content developers from using images, video, etc., but rather
explain how to make multimedia content more accessible to a wide
audience.
- WebCGM 1.0 Second Release
(package: w3-recs)
- CGM (Computer Graphics Metafile) has been an ISO standard for
vector and composite vector/raster picture definition since 1987. It has
been a registered MIME type since 1995. CGM has a significant following
in technical illustration, electronic documentation, geophysical data
visualization, amongst other application areas. WebCGM is a profile for
the effective application of CGM in Web electronic documents. WebCGM has
been a joint effort of the CGM Open Consortium, in collaboration with
W3C staff and supported by the European Commission Esprit project. It
represents an important interoperability agreement amongst major users
and implementors of CGM, and thereby unifies current diverse approaches
to CGM utilization in Web document applications. WebCGM's clear and
unambiguous conformance requirements will enhance interoperability of
implementations, and it should be possible to leverage existing CGM
validation tools, test suites, and the product certification testing
services for application to WebCGM . While WebCGM is a binary file
format and is not "stylable", nevertheless WebCGM follows published W3C
requirements for a scalable graphics format where such are applicable.
The design criteria for the graphical content of WebCGM aimed at a
balance between graphical expressive power on the one hand, and
simplicity and implementability on the other. A small but powerful set
of metadata elements is standardized in WebCGM, to support the
functionalities of: hyperlinking and document navigation; picture

- XHTML 1.0 The Extensible HyperText Markup Language (Second Edition)
(package: w3-recs)
- This specification defines the Second Edition of XHTML 1.0,
a reformulation of HTML 4 as an XML 1.0 application, and three DTDs corresponding
to the ones defined by HTML 4. The semantics of the elements and their
attributes are defined in the W3C Recommendation for HTML 4.
These semantics provide the foundation for future extensibility of XHTML.
Compatibility with existing HTML user agents is possible by following a
small set of guidelines.
- XHTML 1.1 - Module-based XHTML
(package: w3-recs)
- This Recommendation defines a new XHTML document type that is based upon
the module framework and modules defined in Modularization of XHTML.
The purpose of this document type is to serve as the basis for future
extended XHTML 'family' document types, and to provide a consistent,
forward-looking document type cleanly separated from the deprecated,
legacy functionality of HTML 4.
- XHTML Basic
(package: w3-recs)
- The XHTML Basic document type includes the minimal set of modules
required to be an XHTML host language document type, and in addition it
includes images, forms, basic tables, and object support. It is designed
for Web clients that do not support the full set of XHTML features; for
example, Web clients such as mobile phones, PDAs, pagers, and settop
boxes. The document type is rich enough for content authoring.
- XHTML Modularization
(package: w3-recs)
- This Recommendation specifies an abstract modularization of XHTML and an
implementation of the abstraction using XML Document Type Definitions
(DTDs). This modularization provides a means for subsetting and
extending XHTML, a feature needed for extending XHTML's reach onto
emerging platforms.
- XLink 1.0
(package: w3-recs)
- XML Linking Language (XLink) Version 1.0
- XML 1.0
(package: w3-recs)
- Extensible Markup Language (XML) 1.0
- XML Base
(package: w3-recs)
- This document proposes a facility, similar to that of HTML BASE, for
defining base URIs for parts of XML documents.
- XML Encryption Syntax and Processing
(package: w3-recs-2002)
- This document specifies a process for encrypting data and
representing the result in XML. The data may be arbitrary data
(including an XML document), an XML element, or XML element content.
The result of encrypting data is an XML Encryption element which
contains or references the cipher data.
- XML Information Set
(package: w3-recs)
- This specification provides a set of definitions for use in
other specifications that need to refer to the information in an XML
document.
- XML Path Language 1.0
(package: w3-recs)
- XPath is a language for addressing parts of an XML document,
designed to be used by both XSLT and XPointer.
- XML Schema Part 0 - Primer
(package: w3-recs)
- XML Schema Primer
- XML Schema Part 1 - Structures
(package: w3-recs)
- XML Schema Structures
- XML Schema Part 2 - Datatypes
(package: w3-recs)
- XML Schema Datatypes
- XML-Signature Syntax and Processing
(package: w3-recs-2002)
- This document specifies XML digital signature processing rules
and syntax. XML Signatures provide integrity, message authentication,
and/or signer authentication services for data of any type, whether
located within the XML that includes the signature or elsewhere.
- XML-Signature XPath Filter 2.0
(package: w3-recs-2002)
- XML Signature [XML-DSig] recommends a standard means for
specifying information content to be digitally signed and for
representing the resulting digital signatures in XML. Some applications
require the ability to specify a subset of a given XML document as the
information content to be signed. The XML Signature specification meets
this requirement with the XPath transform. However, this transform can
be difficult to implement efficiently with existing technologies. This
specification defines a new XML Signature transform to facilitate the
development of efficient document subsetting implementations that
interoperate under similar performance profiles.
- XPointer element() Scheme
(package: w3-recs-2003)
- This specification defines the XML Pointer Language (XPointer) Framework,
an extensible system for XML addressing that underlies additional XPointer scheme
specifications. The framework is intended to be used as a basis for fragment
identifiers for any resource whose Internet media type is one of text/xml, application/xml,
text/xml-external-parsed-entity, or application/xml-external-parsed-entity.
Other XML-based media types are also encouraged to use this framework in defining
their own fragment identifier languages.
- XPointer element() Scheme
(package: w3-recs-2003)
- The XPointer element() scheme is intended to be used with
the XPointer Framework [XPtrFrame] to allow basic addressing of XML elements.
- XPointer xmlns() Scheme
(package: w3-recs-2003)
- The XPointer xmlns() scheme is intended to be used with the
XPointer Framework [XPtrFrame] to allow correct interpretation of namespace
prefixes in pointers, for instance, namespace-qualified scheme names and
namespace-qualified element or attribute names appearing within scheme data.
- XSL 1.0
(package: w3-recs)
- Extensible Stylesheet Language (XSL) Version 1.0
- XSL Transformations 1.0
(package: w3-recs)
- This specification defines the syntax and semantics of XSLT,
which is a language for transforming XML documents into other XML
documents.
- w3c - the W3C Command Line Tool
(package: libwww0)
- Command line syntax for "w3c", a small tool based on libwww
which can perform various HTTP actions such as GET, POST, PUT, DELETE.
- webbot - the Libwww Robot
(package: libwww0)
- Command line syntax for "webbot", a HTTP spider based on
libwww which can crawl the Internet, but which isn't nearly as useful
as wget.
- www - the W3C Line Mode Browser
(package: libwww0)
- User manual for "www", a very simple line-based WWW
browser.
- Window Maker Users' Guide
(package: wmaker-usersguide-ps)
- This manual describes the usage and configuration of Window Maker.
It is intended for both users who never used the X Window System and
for those who have experience with other window managers.
- gtkeyboard Manual
(package: gtkeyboard)
- This is a complete user manual for gtkeyboard.

- XTerm Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
(package: xterm)
- This document provides answers to frequently asked questions
about the XTerm terminal emulator as it ships with the XFree86 distribution
of the X Window System.
