Suspicious Package 1.2 is developed to be a handy and convenient plugin which can be used for the Quick Look feature of Mac OS X 10.5 (Leopard) and 10.6 (Snow Leopard). It allows you to preview the contents of a standard Apple installer package without launching the Installer. Just select the icon in the Finder and select Quick Look.
You can click on individual folder names to see their contents, or click the Show Contents button to see all content at once. Suspicious Package also alerts you to packages that require an administrator password, or that require you restart your machine after installation.
splmount Package 3.0.0
splmount Package - Easily allows to mount additional volumes in a fli4l router more>>
The package splmount includes an option to automatically install the ext2 kernel module. The standard configuration of fli4l v3.x only includes the ext3 module. It should be possible to mount ext2 volumes, but we encountered several configurations which did not work properly. In these situations the option to load the ext2 module may be activated and it should be possible to mount the ext2 volumes.
The package should be extracted into the directory which contains the fli4l files. The kernel module ext2.o is included in the package splmount. Originally it is stored in the package kernel-modules-extra.tar.gz, but was included in splmount to save the additional work of extracting it from kernel-modules-extra.tar.gz.

Rudix 2009 Update

Rudix is a complete collection of pre-compiled and ready to use Unix compatible software (packages) which are not available from a standard installation of Mac OS X (or Darwin) and is very popular among other Unixes environments like GNU/Linux and FreeBSD

Rudix is very quite similar in concept to BSDs ports system and is proudly keeping the tradition of elegance and simplicity.
System requirements:
- For using the porting system the development tools (X-Code) must be installed.
- It is required to setup /usr/local/bin and /usr/local/sbin in your /etc/profile (or $HOME/.profile) in order to use the utilities.
Enhancements
- Solid build on Leopard.
- Featuring new packages: cscope 15.7, figlet 2.2.2, httptunnel 3.3, libmaa 1.1.1, libzip 0.9.

libiconv Installer Package 1.8
libiconv Installer Package - Installer package for libiconv, a Unix library used for charset conversion more>>
libiconv is Open Source Software released by the GNU project; in other words: I did not write this software, but only compiled it and built this installer package.
My package was created using Apples PackageMaker and contains nothing but libiconv, compiled from the unmodified sources. If you are a Fink user, you should consider downloading Finks libiconv distribution instead.
Expat Installer Package 1.95.8
Expat Installer Package - Installer package for Expat more>>
Most users wont ever use expat directly (although the included xmlwf application can be handy to check the wellformedness of an XML document, if xmllint is not available), but it is a prerequisite for some other software, for instance some XML-related Perl modules or the Sablotron XSL-T processor.
This installer will install expat compiled from the original, unmodified sources.
Open With Package 2.0.1
Contextual Menu allows you to open documents in specified applications. more>>
For example, if you have a Microsoft Word document and youd like to read it but dont have Word, you can ask Open With Package to see if it can open the document in AppleWorks or BBEdit.
You dont have to launch the application and then navigate through the open dialog. Just control-click on a document and choose from the applications on your disks that can open it in the pop up list.
Only applications that can open all the documents in the selection appear in the popup menu, so it doesnt take long to find the application that you want.
htmldoc Installer Package 1.8.23
htmldoc Installer Package - Installer for htmldoc, a shell-based application that provides conversion of HTML in PDF more>>
htmldoc was written by Easy Software Products and is Open Source Software. This implies I only compiled it and built this installer package, but Im not the author of this software.
The download archive contains htmldoc, compiled from the unmodifed sources, built as an installer package using Apples Package Maker software.
sitecopy Installer Package 0.14.3
sitecopy Installer Package - Installer for sitecopy, a shell application thats very useful when programming for the web more>>

Barcode Font Package 3.5
Barcode Font Package - Code EAN, UPC, 128, 39, 2/5, Postnet, Codabar more>>
Code 128 EAN/UCC
To create a Code 128 EAN/UCC simply select the code from the list in either the "Single Barcode" or the "Batch Conversion" Pane. The code generator will create all necessary conversion characters to create the smallest possible outline. Use the "~" to encode non-printable characters, e.g. to encode a TAB, enter "~009".
Note: Code 128 and its variations (EAN/UCC/GS1 - they all mean the same) is ALWAYS used with a checksum. If the generated code does not scan, make sure that you checked the "Checksum" box.
Code 39 Extended
Code 39 Extended will be generated automatically after selecting Code 39 if the generator finds a cahacter that can only be used in Code 39 Extended, e.g. asmall caps. Use the "~" to encode non-printable characters, e.g. to encode a TAB, enter "~009".
Note: Make sure your barcode scanner will actually scan Code 39 Extended. This is not a given!
Enhancements:
- Support for Code 128 EAN/UCC and Code 39 Extended.
Version restrictions:
- The trial version of the software will place the word EVAL near the barcode. Nevertheless the code will scan just fine.

Samba Sharing Package 2.5.0b3 is regarded as a potential and easy to use Unix type server, currently included in MacOSX, which shares files using the CIFS/SMB protocol.
This is the standard file-sharing protocol used by Windows. By sharing your files with Samba they can be accessed by Windows or/and other Unix-like computers in your network. This program allows you to share othere directories then the 'Home'-folders and make those directories available to guest users. You can also use this package to share your printers with Windows users.
Samba Sharing is not meant to access windows computers. OS X 10.2 has features for this itself. You can also use the shareware product Sharity from Objective Development to access the Windows-network.
pdftotext Installer Package 3.0pl3
pdftotext Instaler Package - Instaler Package for pdftotext a shell program for converting PDF documents into plain text more>>
This installer will install nothing but a pdftotext binary and its manpage, compiled from the unmodified sources. Originally, pdftotext is part of the Xpdf software, which is a viewer for PDF documents. As I only needed the converter and not the viewer itself, this package does not contain anything except pdftotext. (Besides the fact that a full Xpdf installation requires the X window system.)
pdftotext Installer Package 3.01pl2
A shell program for converting PDF documents into plain text. more>> When you need to work on your graphic designs, web designs, edit photos,or transform any images, you may need to resize that image. There are not many methods in which you can do this quickly and easily, but RapidoResizer is the ultimate solution.
It allows you to resize images to your specifications and easily apply them to your project. With this utility, you can extract and save application icons and images.
Once you have opened an image or a group of images you get a range of options for you to apply to the image. This enables you to change the dimensions quickly an easily. It is also possible to apply one function to multiple images at a time with the batch function.
In addition to resizing the image (with or without keeping proportions), RapidoResizer allows you to rotate the image, and change the picture to a variety of popular file types.<<less
