Surfraw provides a fast unix command line interface to a variety of popular WWW search engines and other artifacts of power. It reclaims google, altavista, babelfish, dejanews, freshmeat, research index, slashdot and many others from the false-prophet, pox-infested heathen lands of html-forms, placing these wonders where they belong, deep in unix heartland, as god loving extensions to the shell. Surfraw abstracts the browser away from input. Doing so lets it get on with what it's good at. Browsing. Interpretation of linguistic forms is handed back to the shell, which is what it, and human beings are good at. Combined with netscape-remote or incremental text browsers, such as lynx, links or w3m, along with screen a Surfraw liberateur is capable of navigating speeds that leave GUI tainted idolaters agape with fear and wonder.

"Redox is a Unix-like Operating System written in Rust, aiming to bring the innovations of Rust to a modern microkernel and full set of applications."

AskGeo provides a simple, fast, and accurate Interactive Map, Web API and Java Library for finding out the time zone information for a given location (latitude and longitude). It's simple: you give latitude and longitude and the API returns the unix (Olson) time zone ID (e.g., "America/Chicago", "Europe/London"), the Windows Standard Name for the time zone (e.g., "Pacific Standard Time", "Central European Standard Time"), and the current offset from UTC.

"The MATE Desktop Environment is the continuation of GNOME 2. It provides an intuitive and attractive desktop environment using traditional metaphors for Linux and other Unix-like operating systems. MATE is under active development to add support for new technologies while preserving a traditional desktop experience. See the Roadm"

Here's my webtools page. Too many tools that I love on my UNIX system(s) are inaccessable to the average friend/co-worker of mine. Yet everyone has access to webpages. So my choices to help people out involve either giving shell accounts out and teaching people how to run specific UNIX comands or I could just write these tools on the web. So here they are (in order of writing):

Octal, Decode Octal Notation, Symbolic Notation, Info, Code Examples

# Time conversion - convert between Unix timestamp, ISO8601 and RFC 2822 formats # String conversion - encode/decode Base64-encoding; escape XML, URL's and ECMAScript; translate to UTF-8 # Number conversion - convert between decimal, hexadecimal, octal and binary numbers # Network - calculate netmasks, broadcast addresses and do DNS lookups # Bandwidth - calculate the duration of file transfer # XPath debugger - test your XPath expressions

Pandoc is a program for converting between various markup formats. Input formats include markdown, reStructuredText, HTML, and LaTeX; output formats include HTML, LaTeX, ConTeXt, S5, DocBook, groff man, reStructuredText, markdown, and RTF. Many extensions to standard markdown syntax are provided, including inline LaTeX math, tables, definition lists, superscripts and subscripts, smart quotes and dashes, and footnotes Pandoc is in the MacPorts, Debian, Ubuntu, Slackware, Arch, NetBSD, and FreeBSD ports repositories. Note that the version of pandoc in these repositories may not be the most recent. There is also a Windows installer.

These file conversion functions may be used with a PC, Macintosh, or UNIX computer and Netscape Navigator version 3.0 or later and Microsoft Internet Explorer version 4.0 or later. Macintosh users should use Netscape Navigator. login required.

JS/UIX is an UN*X-like OS for standard web-browsers, written entirely in JavaScript (no plug-ins used). It comprises a vir- tual machine, shell, virtual file-system, process-management, and brings its own terminal with screen- and keyboard-mapping.

As the first online Regular Expression tester to offer realtime highlighting and offering more languages than any other online tester, ReJAx continues to be the coolest and easiest to use Regular Expression tester on the web. Supported languages:
    * JavaScript
    * PHP 5 PCRE
    * PHP 5 POSIX
    * Ruby - BETA!!
    * PERL 5
    * UNIX Shell Pattern
It is not necessary to enter the beginning and ending slashes in the pattern field. Not all modifiers will be compatible with every language. Backreferences (when available) are usually in the form of \n where n is the reference number
