SpamBayes is a tool used to segregate unwanted mail (spam) from the mail
you want (ham). Before SpamBayes can be your spam filter of choice you
need to train it on representative samples of email you receive. After
it's been trained, you use SpamBayes to classify new mail according to
its spamminess and hamminess qualities.

statistics about the system on which it's run. It's written in C and

key system statistics. The current list of statistics includes CPU

programs.
The idea is to have a generic front end for archives that uses external
wrappers around the command line archiving tools.

Unlike most planetarium software, Celestia doesn't confine you to the
surface of the Earth. You can travel throughout the solar system, to any
of over 100,000 stars, or even beyond the galaxy.
All movement in Celestia is seamless; the exponential zoom feature lets
you explore space across a huge range of scales, from galaxy clusters
down to spacecraft only a few meters across. A 'point-and-goto'
interface makes it simple to navigate through the universe to the object
you want to visit.
Celestia is expandable. It comes with a large catalog of stars,
galaxies, planets, moons, asteroids, comets, and spacecraft. If that's
not enough, you can download dozens of easy to install add-ons with more
objects.
Available flavors:
lua - add Lua scripting engine (extension language support)
