ack is a tool like grep, aimed at programmers with large trees of heterogeneous source code. ack is written purely in Perl, and takes advantage of the power of Perl's regular expressions. * ... [More] Searches recursively through directories by default, while ignoring .svn, CVS and other VCS directories. * ack ignores most of the crap you don't want to search * Lets you specify file types to search, as in --perl or --nohtml. * Color highlighting of search results. * Uses real Perl regular expressions, not a GNU subset. * ack is pure Perl, so consistent across all platforms. It even comes as a single standalone program with no module dependencies. [Less]

rsnapshot is a filesystem snapshot utility for making backups of local and remote systems. Using rsync and hard links, it is possible to keep multiple, full backups instantly available. The disk ... [More] space required is just a little more than the space of one full backup, plus incrementals. Depending on your configuration, it is quite possible to set up in just a few minutes. Files can be restored by the users who own them, without the root user getting involved. There are no tapes to change, so once it's set up, you may never need to think about it again. rsnapshot is written entirely in Perl. It should work on any reasonably modern UNIX compatible OS, including: Debian, Redhat, Fedora, SuSE, Gentoo, Slackware, FreeBSD, OpenBSD, NetBSD, Solaris, Mac OS X, and even IRIX. [Less]

ObexFTP is a library bundling everything needed for OBEX transfers and exposing it via a simple interface. Quite a number of language bindings are provided using SWIG or other means. There is a sample ... [More] command line client "obexftp" and a server "obexftpd" included. Besides FTP the ObexFTP library provides access to the PUSH, GOEP and SYNCH services. It runs on Linux, FreeBSD, NetBSD and Win32. [Less]

Backup Manager is a command line backup tool for GNU/Linux, designed to help you make daily archives of your file system. Written in bash and perl, it can make archives in lots of open formats (tar ... [More] , gzip, bzip2, lzma, dar, zip) and provides lots of interesting features (such as network exports or CD/DVD automated-burning). The program is designed to be as easy to use as possible and is popular with desktop users and sysadmins. The whole backup process is defined in one full-documented configuration file which needs no more than 5 minutes to tune for your needs. It just works. [Less]

Colection of small tools, utilities and scripts to sysadmins, to GNU/Linux and any other stuff, like Google Gadgets, daylight saving time, VirtualBox firewalling and bash scripts.

This is an LDAP shell. I wrote it a long time ago, actually, but have only recently gotten around to making it release-worthy. It is composed of two parts: Net::LDAP::Config, and ldapsh. ... [More] Net::LDAP::Config is a library for simplifying and centralizing access to your LDAP repositories. Instead of having every single script ask for your ldap server and search base, or have it hard coded, you can simply use this library: my $config = Net::LDAP::Config->new("default"); It's got a couple other nice features, like the fact that it caches your LDAP UID (per host), so you should only ever have to type it in once. It's pretty well documented, so 'perldoc Net::LDAP::config' should get you the rest of the way. ldapsh, and its corresponding library Net::LDAP::Shell, provide (shockingly) the shell [Less]

A collection of scripts in various languages that are useful to developers. Most are small and do just one task, but all have served a purpose at one point or another.

Choicetool is a configuration management tool like CML2 or Linux kernel kconfig. It uses an input description in order to know the configuration symbols and their inter-relations and creates an ... [More] outputs a script that should be shipped with a package, in order to let the user tweak the configuration parameters interactively. [Less]

The default MySQL client is nice, but I wanted to add some features to it, like command aliases. I also wanted to be able to be in my normal shell and quickly grab stuff from a MySQL table without ... [More] switching terminals. So, I wrote a couple extensions to the psh (Perl Shell). Two new commands are "dls" and "dhead". dls lists all the tables in the current database, but feels like a "ls -ltr" in that it sorts them by last-modified time and shows the sizes. "dhead" just peeks at the top 10 records of a table, and it compresses long fields when possible so that it can try to fit on a page. This is an alpha version but I use it quite a bit. [Less]
