Filesystem in Userspace is a simple interface for userspace programs to export a virtual filesystem to the Linux kernel. It also aims to provide a secure method for non privileged users to create and mount their own filesystem implementations.

w3m is a pager/text-based WWW browser. It is similar to Lynx, but handles some things like page navigation differently. It can render tables and frames (by converting frames into tables) or display a ... [More] document given from standard input. It can also be used with mouse in an xterm or in a gpm-driven console, and it is small. [Less]

JACK is a low-latency audio server. It can connect a number of different applications to an audio device, as well as allowing them to share audio between themselves. Its clients can run in their own ... [More] processes (i.e., as normal applications), or can they can run within the JACK server (as a "plugin"). JACK is different from other audio server efforts in that it has been designed from the ground up to be suitable for professional audio work. This means that it focuses on two key areas: synchronous execution of all clients, and low latency operation. [Less]
