Involved Projects and Packages
Tracker is a powerful desktop-neutral first class object
database, tag/metadata database, search tool and indexer.
It consists of a common object database that allows entities to
have an almost infinite number of properties, metadata (both
embedded/harvested as well as user definable), a comprehensive
database of keywords/tags and links to other entities.
It provides additional features for file-based objects
including context linking and audit trails for a file object.
It has the ability to index, store, harvest metadata, retrieve
and search all types of files and other first class objects.

Terminal Server Client (tsclient) is a frontend for rdesktop. It
supports most of the rdesktop 1.1/1.2 arguments, can read .rdp files in
the Microsoft Unicode format, writes new .rdp files in ASCII (which can
also be read by the Microsoft RDP Client), and looks and functions very
much like the Microsoft RDP Client. It features a Gnome panel applet to
quickly launch saved rdp files.
This package provides the usbmuxd daemon for software to use through the
libusbmuxd library to talk with iPhone/iPod Touch devices.
Usbmux is an encapsulation protocol (think IP, ATM, PPP) that allows
multiplexing several conversations onto a single pair of wires.
Vinagre is a VNC client for GNOME that supports connecting to multiple
machines, browsing for VNC servers via avahi and password storage in
gnome-keyring.

WebKit is a web content engine, derived from KHTML and KJS from KDE,
and used primarily in Apple's Safari browser. It is made to be
embedded in other applications, such as mail readers, or web browsers.
It is able to display content such as HTML, SVG, XML, and others. It
also supports DOM, XMLHttpRequest, XSLT, CSS, Javascript/ECMAscript and
more.

WebRTC is an open source project that enables web browsers with Real-Time
Communications (RTC) capabilities via simple Javascript APIs. The WebRTC
components have been optimized to best serve this purpose.
WebRTC implements the W3C's proposal for video conferencing on the web.
X-Chat is yet another IRC client for the X Window System. It uses the
Gtk+ toolkit. It is easy to use compared to the other Gtk+ IRC clients
and it has a nicely designed interface.
A companion to xdg-user-dirs that integrates it into the Gnome desktop
and Gtk+ applications. Presents a dialog when a user changes locales
to help move they standard user directories to the correct names.
Yelp is the default help browser for the GNOME desktop. Yelp provides a
simple graphical interface for viewing DocBook, HTML, man, and info
formatted documentation.
yelp-tools is a collection of scripts and build utilities to help create,
manage, and publish documentation for Yelp and the web. Most of the heavy
lifting is done by packages like yelp-xsl and itstool. This package just
wraps things up in a developer-friendly way.
This package contains XSL stylesheets that are used by the yelp help browser.
Zeitgeist is a service that logs the users activity. The log can be
queried and managed in various ways over a DBus API.
This is the Zeitgeist backend engine.
Zenity is a basic rewrite of gdialog, without the pain involved of
trying to figure out commandline parsing. Zenity is zen-like; simple
and easy to use.
Zenity Dialogs: Calendar, Text Entry, Error, Informational, File
Selection, List, Progress, Question, Text Information, Warning and
Password.
Zenity is especially useful in scripts.
This is an internal package that is used to create the patterns as part
of the installation source setup. Installation of this package does
not make sense.
This particular package contains all the base / core patterns (and those that don't fit well anywhere else.

Tools for VMware
open Virtual Machine Tools (open-vm-tools) are the open source implementation of VMware Tools. They are a set of guest operating system virtualization components that enhance performance and user experience of virtual machines. As virtualization technology rapidly becomes mainstream, each virtualization solution provider implements their own set of tools and utilities to supplement the guest virtual machine. However, most of the implementations are proprietary and are tied to a specific virtualization platform.
With the Open Virtual Machine Tools project, we are hoping to solve this and other related problems. The tools are currently composed of kernel modules for Linux and user-space programs for all VMware supported Unix-like guest operating systems. They provide several useful functions like:
* File transfer between a host and guest
* Improved memory management and network performance under virtualization
* General mechanisms and protocols for communication between host and guests and from guest to guest
libspectre is a small library for rendering Postscript documents. It
provides a convenient easy to use API for handling and rendering
Postscript documents.
