BeClock 0.17
(KDE Improvement)
A simple clock, implemented as KWin Effect

- This is NO plasmoid!
- You need active desktop FX to use this clock
- The idea is somewhat experimental :-)

Installation:
---
tar -xJf beclock-kwin-fx.x.y.txz
cd beclock-kwin-fx
./configure
cd build
make && sudo make install
---
to activate or configure
- rightclick some titlebar
- say "configure..."
- click "all effects"
- filter for beclock
- check and maybe configure it.
- click apply


Advances:
- always on top
- input event dead (you can click through etc.)

Features:
- AM/PM or 24h digital display
- optional date display


changelog:
0.17
----
- build fix
- show corner activated clock on countdown
- preselect local time format (24h ./. AM/PM)

0.16
----
- maintainance release for KDE SC 4.8rc1 compilation. No functional change.
- update on 2012-02-03: cmake janus compilation issues, no code change

0.15
----
- support for 4.8 (yes, doesn't disappear anymore)
- alpha support for GLSL 2.0 (the blendfunction was irrelevant since not used anyway - i fixed kwin to support 2.0 shaders on my box ;-)
- as an extra bonus a binary and a Maya inspired clock =)

0.14
----
- support for 4.7 (beta)

0.13b
-----
- since kwin initializes the effects before the workspace, BeClock could crash kwin by asking for workspace dimensions in the constructor -> workaround

0.13
---- (!! xz compressed -> "tar -xJf" !!)
- fixed weird AM/PM stuff ;-P
- seconds are now a rotating planet (this is calm and cheap
- added countdown dbus function
qdbus org.kde.kwin /BeClock countdown [[h] m] s

BusyTasks 12.0
(Plasmoid Script)
Update 12.0: Highlight change of memory percentage between update intervals
Simple but highly configurable task monitor.
Isn't everything some kind of process? At least on a computer it is. So let's keep an eye on them.
Please read at least section REQUIREMENTS before installation
This plasmoid initially was a clumsy spin-off from Dmitry Makovey's tail plasmoid, but after I got more and more used to python and the program got more and more complex I cut everything superfluous and eventually separated it from tail.
This plasmoid uses several programs to get its input. The collected data is neither unique nor new, but the idea to clearly sum it up in one single program is. This task monitor displays up to four different tasks, each with different priority.

CPU intensive task:
Name and the percentage of the most CPU intensive task. The underlying top daemon is very efficient and does not really affect CPU and IO.

Memory intensive task:
Name of the most memory intensive task, combined with a measure of size (absolute value or percentage to total available memory).
The implementation is the same as for the task above.

IO intensive task:
The task that currently asks for IO.
The software package includes an own version of iotop that sends data via shared memory.

NET intensive task:
The task that eats up your bandwidth.
You will be prompted for an administrator password when starting nethogs.
Like the one of iotop, this is a modified nethogs daemon that does not affect IO.

Additionally, the configurable update interval plays a crucial role in resource consumption. The smaller it is set, the more resources are needed.
There should be slightly less resource consumption (in terms of IO as well as overall) since release 8.0. Release 10.0 eventually cut out all IO.

The plasmoid is highly configurable to fit most desktop designs.
It supports highlighting of processes, either through a simple colour change after a certain limit of per cents or via colour gradient. For the statisticians among you, you can even log output. BusyTasks is only useful if it is always visible (e.g. residing on a panel) If you'd have got to minize windows or show the desktop to have a glance on it you could equally start the system monitor.

REQUIREMENTS:
For full functionality, you need to meet the following requirements:

Installation of top in your command-line interpeter. This usually is the case on UNIX OSs.

Proper value of $HOME variable in the shell environment

Python version 2.
On new systems version 3 may only be installed. Use the bash command "python -V" to check your version. Usually it's easy to get previous releases, they are not interfering

The System V IPC module for python.
If you don't have it yet, visit http://semanchuk.com/philip/sysv_ipc/ for download and install instructions.
Short manual:
Download file, go to the related directory and run "sudo python setup.py install". For systems linking python 3 per default, type "sudo python2 setup.py install". If it quits moaning about a python file install the package "python-dev(el)" first.

There is a chance that one of the used backends (iotop and nethogs) does not work due to missing libraries. Basically there are two ways to proceed: Either install the standalone versions of iotop and nethogs and benefit from automatic dependency resolution or get the missing files/packages manually. BusyTasks usually reports the problem. (read section "troubleshooting")

TROUBLESHOOTING:

If you have a problem with resizing, activate the option "resize manually"

On systems with linux kernel 3.1 (or above), iotop must be run in administration mode. Before activation, make sure there's a permissions error with standard rights. Be careful, arbitrarily switching between user and administration mode may cause an IPC permission error!

If the iotop daemon does not start, some libraries may be missing. (see plasmoid output) Install them via KPackageKit, pacman, portage, etc.

If none of the implemented nethogs daemons run, download the sources (see links), compile it directly on your system, copy it to the BusyTasks directory and overwrite one of the existing nethogs0* daemons.

If the name resolution of VirtualBox virtual machines does not work and you see some weird symbols, close the plasmoid, delete the current bashpipetosharedmemory75* binaries from the contents folder and use the old ones by removing the *.old endings. Additionally, they must be executable.

On some systems the superuser frontend does only accept passwords entered in terminals. As a consequence the "use administrative password"-setting does not work, you've to manually enter your password each time. As a workaround, one may handle the daemons in the appropriate system runlevel.

If you still don't get it to work, contact me here or via mail. You probably found a bug/compatibility problem.

BUGS:
Since release 11.5 the program should be (nearly) bug free.
Please report here or via mail (see plasmoid info) if your plasma-desktop crashes (so that I can at least remove the above claim), which usually happens when BusyTasks is removed from the desktop.
The plasmoid was tested on several distributions (read below).
Known bugs:
1. Inside a panel configuration is not possible. You have to drag it out and change settings there.
2. Likewise, process display delay for IO and network does not work inside it. I conclude that refresh events are triggered independently by plasma-desktop. Tests confirmed that the plasmoid is updated 2-3 times per second irregardless of its settings. Fixed

PERFORMANCE:
Python may be the wrong language to write such a tool in.
Currently the process of (re)configuration is horribly slow.
On the one hand, bad code is responsible for the speed inefficiency, on the other hand it is my quest for user-conveniency and upwards-compatibility that accounts for this behaviour. As jobs of configuration or organisation are usually done only twice per runtime (at startup and at termination) it's still acceptable.
I'll probably rewrite the whole program (including the iotop daemon) in C++ sometime (sometime...what a nice euphemism for never ;-)). For the moment performance remains the only real bug.

TESTS: Program successfully tested on:
Kubuntu 9.10, 11.04 and 11.10
Fedora 15
OpenSUSE 11.4
Arch 2011-08-19
Slackware 13.37
Gentoo 11.2
Mint 12

TRANSLATIONS:
If you want to contribute to the project, feel free to unpack the plasmoid-package and read the translation instructions in the contents folder.

I strongly recommend all who have installed a previous version to get an update!
Please comment, rate and criticise.
In the long run I'll have to create a website for documentation because the installation possibilities and configuration options are quite impressive and this description's already uncomfortably large. Due to a severe lack of time reading tooltips is all I suggest for now.

:: How to hide the title bar of Firefox in KDE

1. Open System Settings
2. Go to Workspace appearance --> Configure Decoration --> Window-Specific Ovverrides
3. Look for Exceptions related to Firefox and edit it ... If there isn't create it using these values :

-To hide the title bar of all windows related to Firefox

Matching window property : Window Class Name
Regular expression to match : Firefox

-To hide only the title bar of the main window of firefox (recommended)

Matching window property : Window Title
Regular expression to match : Mozilla Firefox

4. Check "Hide window title bar"
5. Now the Firefox title bar will be hidden . Now you may need the buttons min.max,close or drag to control the window. Customize the toolbars in Firefox and you'll find these new toolbar buttons.


This procedure in the next versions should be automatic.

Customizable Weather Plasmoid (CWP) 1.5.9
(Plasmoid Binary)
For >=KDE-4.2

This is another weather plasmoid.
It aims to be highly customizable, but a little harder to setup than other weather plasmoids.
Nearly any weather forecast provider can be used, as long as the data is provided as html files (no flash).
The information how to extract the information from these html files is stored inside xml files.
Commands like grep, head, tail, sed, awk, ... will do this job.

For now, xml files for the weather providers

www.weather.com (°F) (city identifier example: USDC0001)
br.weather.com (°C) (city identifier example: BRXX0043)
de.weather.com (°C) (city identifier example: 80331 or UKXX0085)
espanol.weather.com (°C) (city identifier example: Ciudad-de-Mexico-MXDF0132)
fr.weather.com (°C) (city identifier example: Paris-FRXX0076)
in.weather.com (°C) (city identifier example: New-Delhi-INXX0096)
uk.weather.com (°C) (city identifier example: London-UKXX0085)
wetter.com (°C) (city identifier example: DE0006515)
myforecast.com (°C) (city identifier example: 12844)
myforecast.com (°F) (city identifier example: 12844)
www.weather.com.cn (°C) (city identifier example: 101010100)
accuweather.com US (°C) (city identifier example: 85001)
accuweather.com US (°F) (city identifier example: 85001)
accuweather.com world (°C) (city identifier example: AFR|ZA|SF004|JOHANNESBURG)
accuweather.com world (°F) (city identifier example: AFR|ZA|SF004|JOHANNESBURG)
ilmeteo.it (°C) (city identifier example: Roma)
pogodynka.pl (°C) (city identifier example: Warszawa)
freemeteo.com (°C) (city identifier example: gid=3117735&la=4; control language by la=, try different numbers on freemeteo page)
freemeteo.com (°F) (city identifier example: gid=3117735&la=4; control language by la=, try different numbers on freemeteo page)
www.gismeteo.com (°C) (city identifier example: 4944)

are included, but feel free to write your own ones.
Please note, that some of the xml files might not work properly for all locations.
If they don't, try to update your definition files: either install latest cwp release or/and download latest xml definition
file package from
http://www.kde-look.org/content/show.php/show.php?content=98925
and unpack the xml files into ~/.kde4/share/apps/cwp (the cwp application folder inside your kde directory).

To access extended information about current weather condition, left-click inside the current weather description!
The time, when the provider updated his weather information is shown italic when clicked on update time.

CWP saves current weather data on exit inside $HOME/./share/apps/cwp folder, so after crashes you might want to clean up
this directory, or completely remove it.

Parts of the source code are taken from weather plasmoid 0.4, KDE 4.2, qimageblitz, yaWP.
Thanks to the developers!

If you experience any bugs, please report them here.
Running
plasmoidviewer plasma_applet_cwp
or starting plasma from the console
might give you some debug information.

TextMon 0.1
(Plasmoid Script)
A minimalistic textual system monitor.

By default it shows:

total cpu load

used application memory

wlan down and up rate

sda read and write rate

You most likely want to tweak the settings. This is done by editing the source
code. The settings dialog shows you how to get there.

This hacky way of configuring the applet is no shortcoming but by intention. I
plan to write up a little guide/tutorial which shows how to write this applet
from scratch in Javascript. Stay tuned :D

This is also a tribute to the awesome window manager, where doing such a system
monitor widget is among the first things you learn. I've came to appreciate
knowing exactly when my system comes under pressure (cpu, mem, sda) or if a
download is still going (wlan).

digiKam Software Collection 2.6.0-beta1
(KDE Graphic Tool)
digiKam is an advanced digital photo management application for KDE, which makes importing and organizing digital photos a \"snap\". The photos can be organized in albums which can be sorted chronologically, by directory layout or by custom collections.

Tired of the directory constraints? Don’t worry, digiKam also provides tagging functionality. You tag your images which can be spread out across multiple folders and digiKam provides fast and intuitive ways to browse these tagged images. You can also add comments and rating to your images. digiKam makes use of a fast and robust database to store these meta-informations which makes adding and editing of comments and tags very reliable.

digiKam makes use of KIPI plugins for lots of added functionality. KIPI (KDE Image Plugin Interface) is an initiative to create a common plugin infrastructure for digiKam, KPhotoAlbum, Showimg, and GwenView. Its aim is to allow development of image plugins which can be shared among KDE graphical applications.

An easy to use interface is provided that enables you to connect to your camera and preview, download and/or delete your images. digiKam includes too an image editor for image corrections and manipulations whitch can be extended by plugins.

Another tool, which most artists and photographers will be familiar with, is a Light Table. This tool assists artists and photographers with reviewing their work ensuring only the highest quality. A light table will show the artist their imperfections in which they can go and touch up. Well in digiKam, the light table function provides the user a similar experience. You can import a photo, drag it onto the light table, and touch up only the areas that need it.

The digiKam Image Editor has its own plugin subsystem with some common tools e.g. red eye correction or Gamma correction. Additional plugins are provided with the main application to process advanced corrections on image like color management, noise reduction, or special effects. digiKam Image Editor support all camera RAW file formats, 16 bits color depth, Exif/Makernote/IPTC/GPS metadata, Color management, tagging/rating/comments pictures, etc.

A lots of search tools are also available to be able to find specific photo on whole collection : Time line, Calendar, Advanced Search using multiple and complex database queries (tags, rating, keywords, date,
etc...)

A stand-alone image editor version named Showfoto is also available. It runs without digiKam images database support, but provides all Image Editor plugins.

glnemo2 1.40
(KDE Scientific)
Glnemo2 is an interactive 3D visualization program which displays particles positions of the different components (gas, stars, disk, dark mater halo, bulge) of an N-body snapshot. It's a very useful tool for everybody running N-body simulations from isolated galaxies to cosmological simulations. It can show quickly a lot of information about data by revealing shapes, dense areas, formation of structures such as spirals arms, bars, peanuts or clumps of galaxies. Glnemo2 has been designed to meet the requirements of the user, with simplicity in mind, easy to install, easy to use with an interactive and responsive graphical user interface (based on Nokia QT 4.X API) , powerful with a fast 3D engine (OPenGL and GLSL), and generic with the possibility to load different kinds of input files.


You can zoom in/out, rotate, scale, translate, select different particles
and plot them in different blending colors, color particles according to their density,
play with the density threshold, trace orbits, play different time steps, take automatic
screenshots to make movies, select particles using the mouse, fly over your simulation
using camera path. All this features are accessible from a very intuitive graphic user interface.

Currently, glnemo2 reads:
- NEMO files (http://carma.astro.umd.edu/nemo)
- Gadget 1 and 2 -little and big endian- files (http://www.mpa-garching.mpg.de/gadget/)
- RAMSES files (http://irfu.cea.fr/Projets/Site_ramses/RAMSES.html)
- FTM files (Clayton Heller's sph/nbody code)
- phiGRAPE file (http://wiki.cs.rit.edu/bin/view/GRAPEcluster/phiGRAPE)
- list of files stored in a file
- realtime gyrfalcON simulation via a network plugin (see $NEMO/usr/jcl/glnemo2/gyrfalcon/README)

Glnemo2 uses a plugin mechanism to load data, so it's easy to add a new file reader.
It uses the latest OpenGL technology like, shaders (glsl), vertex buffer object, frame buffer object, and takes in account the power of your graphic card to accelerate the rendering. Millions of particles can be rendered, in real time, with a fast GPU.

Glnemo2 runs fine on Linux, Windows(using minGW compiler), and MaxOSX, thanks to the QT4 API.

lrcShow-X 2.1.1
(KDE Sound Application)
The main goal of lrcShow-X is to add synchronized lyrics visualization functionality to the most used Linux media players, using existing LRC files, embedded lyrics like ID3 Sylt, Uslt, Lyrics3 and ApeTag. It also searches for lyrics using 13 different engines among which we can mention MiniLyrics, EvilLyrics, LrcDB and TTPlayer.

lrcShow-X is written entirely in python using pyqt4 and supporting more than ten different players like Amarok2, Qmmp, Audacious, rhythmbox, songbird and many other Linux Players (normally using a dbus interface). From 1.4.0, lrcShow-X supports mpd and xmms2, please read addons/README for details.

If you have experienced lrcShow-II lyrics plugin with Amarok1, you should know what this application can do, just supporting more players and having more functions.

Currently, lrcShow-X supports zh_CN, zh_TW, it, en_US, hr, ru, ms, uk, es, id, da, pt_BR, Cs translations.

Please read help documents with the built-in browser or the README file in package to get more details.
