dwdiff is a front-end for the diff program that operates at the word
level instead of the line level. It is different from wdiff in that it
allows the user to specify what should be considered whitespace, and in
that it takes an optional list of characters that should be considered
delimiters. Delimiters are single characters that are treated as if they
are words, even when there is no whitespace separating them from
preceding words or delimiters. dwdiff is mostly commandline compatible
with wdiff. Only the --autopager, --terminal and --avoid-wraps options
are not supported.

The tree utility displays a small formatted tree of directories. It can
be really useful to get a quick glance of a directory structure.

Clusterit is a collection of clustering tools loosely based on IBM's
PSSP clustering tools. Unlike PSSP or GLUnix, Clusterit allows fast
parallel execution of remote commands as it is written in
architecture-independent C. Administrators can choose from a variety
of authentication methods, including SSH and Kerberos.
With Clusterit, administrators can run parallelized and load
balanced software builds (using jsd/jsh) or manage a heterogeneous
cluster of machines (using dsh/dvt/rvt).

pscpug is a unix utility designed to graph a given process's CPU usage
over time. Since you can see changes over time, it is often more useful
than top for checking on a specific errant process.

preserve my changes to the fentonups driver, allowing the detection logic
to be bypassed and a model to be forced - for UPSes that do implement the
protocol except the identification command, which seems to be somewhat common
the Xanto S3000R thing here behaves like that, and support for it is added

From the 4.0.0 announcement:
Added colorschemes for most server applications, improved setting
of colors (now also background and attributes can be set), improved
userinterface, like 'tee' output can now be send to other processes/
files before or after processing, ip adresses/hostnames/seconds
since epoch/errno values can be translated, it can now also read
from stdin, added key for hiding all windows but the one selected,
lines ending with '\' can be merged into one line, furthermore quite
a few small bug fixes and numerous small additions and improvements.
