It allows you to join multiple IRC channels (chat rooms) at the same time, talk publicly, private one-on-one conversations etc. Even file transfers are possible.<br /><br />Here is the <span style="font-weight: bold;">changelog</span>:<br /><br />* The userlist and treeview can now be placed on the same side, with a resize handle in between them. They can also be dragged and dropped into place.<br /><br /> * The resize handles between two panes are now smaller (3 pixels) and invisible.<br /><br /> * Scrollbars are now placed inside the frame they scroll (more Windows like).<br /><br /> * If you have a tree on one side and userlist on the other, they'll both now have a resize handle, previously the tree's size was fixed.<br /><br /> * The userlist can be hidden and shown with CTRL+F7.<br /><br /> * Added a feature that reloads conversations from last time you used XChat (/set text_replay 0 to disable it).<br /><br /> * /MENU now supports a $CHAN root aswell (see plugin20.html).<br /><br /> * Fixed a problem some people were having with minimize to tray (the feature added in 2.8.3e).<br /><br /> * Fixed /LastLog printing everything twice if you had Indented Nicks off.<br /><br /> * Added /set gui_tweaks for GUI fine tunning.<br /><br /> * A better quit dialog which warns you if you're connected to IRC or have active file transfers.<br /><br /> * The Channel List's minimum users spin-button can now be set downward even on networks that sent a list of channels of only a larger size. In this case the Download button will flash to indicate you need to download a new list.<br /><br /> * Fixed bug: [1737249] Doesn't recognize nicks with halfop mode on hovering.Max_Mighthttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17272132576632363975noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36104235.post-76276148125397792502007-06-22T10:39:00.000+03:002007-06-22T10:46:56.994+03:00Sonata Media Player<a href="http://sonata.berlios.de/">Sonata</a> media player is GTK+ based client for the <a href="http://www.musicpd.org/">Music Player Daemon (MPD)</a>.

It can read, convert and write images in a variety of formats (about 100) including DPX, EXR, GIF, JPEG, JPEG-2000, PDF, PhotoCD, PNG, Postscript, SVG, and TIFF. Use ImageMagick to translate, flip, mirror, rotate, scale, shear and transform images, adjust image colors, apply various special effects, or draw text, lines, polygons, ellipses and Bezier curves.<br />Lets see what we can do with ImageMagick:<br /><ul><li>Format conversion: convert an image from one format to another (e.g. PNG to JPEG)</li><li>Transform: resize, rotate, crop, flip or trim an image</li><li>Transparency: render portions of an image invisible</li><li>Draw: add shapes or text to an image</li><li>Decorate: add a border or frame to an image</li><li>Special effects: blur, sharpen, threshold, or tint an image</li><li>Image calculator: apply a mathematical expression to an image or image channels</li><li>Text & comments: insert descriptive or artistic text in an image</li><li>Image identification: describe the format and attributes of an image</li><li>Animation: create a GIF animation sequence from a group of images</li><li>Composite: overlap one image over another</li><li>Montage: juxtapose image thumbnails on an image canvas</li><li>High dynamic-range imaging: accurately represent the wide range of intensity levels found in real scenes ranging from the brightest direct sunlight to the deepest darkest shadows</li><li>Large image support: read, process, or write mega- and giga-pixel image sizes</li></ul><a href="http://www.imagemagick.org/script/examples.php">Here</a> you can find some more examples of the real ImageMagick power :D<br />It is written in C and interfaces to the X library, therefore does not require any other GUI toolkits. ImageMagick is also ported for Windows and Mac OS X.Max_Mighthttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17272132576632363975noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36104235.post-15185399992935936062007-06-05T16:30:00.000+03:002007-06-05T16:53:15.588+03:00VariCAD - 2D/3D CAD system for mechanical engineering<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgSGSKvl5KqY2WsEK_97l1a3ioN-g4HQk1rJGEDxLn3NpoFsxe05xObk2XSEZt6zKSlw2JxzBQBNl9DP2Uq1XhEQhRA8tLRA1B2XppTrncOatD2a-fAZQknyGOX1OMrQwX0XPbziQ/s1600-h/varicad_logo.png"><img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer; width: 81px; height: 96px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgSGSKvl5KqY2WsEK_97l1a3ioN-g4HQk1rJGEDxLn3NpoFsxe05xObk2XSEZt6zKSlw2JxzBQBNl9DP2Uq1XhEQhRA8tLRA1B2XppTrncOatD2a-fAZQknyGOX1OMrQwX0XPbziQ/s320/varicad_logo.png" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5072575578383722882" border="0" /></a>Homepage: <a href="http://www.varicad.com/">http://varicad.com/</a><br />Download: <a href="https://www.varicad.com/3dcaddownload.phtml"><span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_0">VariCAD</span></a><br /><br />I found this program just five minutes ago and I think it is very interesting, especially for those of you who like CAD design.

I have been "observing" the development since version 0.3 and it is going very good. I believe that by the end of the year we will have stable 1.0 release :)<br />Deluge is written in <a href="http://python.org">Python</a> and makes use of the <a class="ext-link" href="http://www.rasterbar.com/"><span class="icon">Rasterbar's</span></a> version of <a class="ext-link" href="http://www.rasterbar.com/products/libtorrent/"><span class="icon">libtorrent</span></a>. Since it is based on python, Deluge uses PyGTK for the user interface (I am learning python and pygtk too:)). Deluge is intended to bring a native, full-featured client to Linux, BSD, and other *NIX GTK desktop environments such as Gnome and XFCE. Deluge supports a few but enough for now plugins. You can find them <a href="http://dev.deluge-torrent.org/wiki/Plugins">here</a>. That is all for now, have a nice day :)Max_Mighthttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17272132576632363975noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36104235.post-8432032049116762142007-05-24T16:49:00.000+03:002007-05-24T17:09:36.644+03:00Frugalware Linux 0.7pre1<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiuRyBaLRq2s3xgS5GfAARy3CY7o2bK_D0-FqhYCvEizbjOuH9ggr3YhecRc-Lo5ZHl7poRX9Oa4qruii74SjIC_88t0L0U7_dREKPicciMFzew7ksZ7EL89PZkTSWbXegZIGzXKw/s1600-h/frugalware.png"><img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiuRyBaLRq2s3xgS5GfAARy3CY7o2bK_D0-FqhYCvEizbjOuH9ggr3YhecRc-Lo5ZHl7poRX9Oa4qruii74SjIC_88t0L0U7_dREKPicciMFzew7ksZ7EL89PZkTSWbXegZIGzXKw/s200/frugalware.png" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5068124808189915042" border="0" /></a>Homepage: <a href="http://www.frugalware.org/">http://frugalware.org/</a><br />Download: <a href="http://www.frugalware.org/download">Frugalware 0.7 pre1</a><br /><br />Frugalware Linux is designed for intermediate users, who are not afraid of text mode.
