faces-1.5.1.tar.Z  - Package description:

 This is announcement about the fourth general release of a "faces" server
 for monitoring a list visually. Typically this is a list of incoming mail
 messages, jobs in the print queue or users on a system.
 Faces has five different modes of operation:
 (a) The default will monitor for new mail. By default, only the last ten
 messages are displayed. Using the left mouse button it is possible to
 toggle the text in the faces window. This will either be the username
 or the time the mail message arrived. The icon shows the image of the
 last message to arrive.
 (b) You can monitor the whole of a mail file. The open window will
 automatically adjust it's size to correctly show the face icons. The
 open window options are the username or the timestamp and number of
 message from that user. The icon will display the image of the last
 message, and a count of the total number of messages in the spool
 file or mail folder.
 (c) Monitoring a given print queue. This will generate a single face icon
 showing the job at the top of the print queue, and the text message
 will display the printer name plus the number of jobs to be printed.
 Opening the window will show images of all the jobs in the queue. The
 text on each image can be toggled, choices being the owners' name and
 the size of the job in bytes.
 (d) Monitoring users on a machine. For each user, a face image is
 displayed. Text can be either the username or the time they logged on.
 The iconic form displays the total number of users.
 (e) Custom monitoring. You can specify a program or shell script to run.
 The standard output from this program will be read by the faces program,
 and the appropriate faces displayed using the information provided. The
 format of this face information is given in the faces manual page.

ups-2.28.tar.Z  - Package description:

 Ups is a source level C debugger which runs under the X11 and Sunview
 window systems on the SPARC, Sun 3, Sun 386i, VAX, and DECstation. It
 has been the C debugger of choice for several years at the University
 of Kent.
 Ups runs in a window with two major regions: one showing the
 current state of the target program data and the other showing
 the currently executing source code. A key feature of ups is
 that the variables display is persistent: when you add a variable
 to the display it stays there as you step through the code. The
 current stack trace (which function called which) is always visible.
 Ups includes a C interpreter which allows you to add fragments
 of code simply by editing them into the source window (the source
 file itself is not modified). This lets you add debugging printf
 calls without recompiling, relinking (or even restarting) the
 target program. You can also add conditional breakpoints in a
 natural way - you just add a statement like "if (i == 73) #stop"
 at the appropriate place in the source window.

mush-7.2.2.tar.Z  - Package description:

 Contained is the source for "Mail User's Shell" (MUSH), a "Mail User
 Agent" (MUA) that is designed to manage electronic mail on most UNIX
 systems. That is, mush is used by users to read mail, sort it, edit
 it, delete it, or use it to act as an interface to send mail to others.
 A Mail Transport Agent (MTA) is the program which mush communicates with
 that actually -delivers- mail.
 Mush runs on various flavors of unix. To build mush, you should identify
 which unix you are running:
 Sun (all versions from 2.0 and higher).
 BSD (versions 4.2 and up)
 System-V / Version 7 / System III (Bell Labs)
 Xenix (this might be tricky)
