The Desktop Notifications framework provides a standard way of doing
passive pop-up notifications on the desktop. These are designed to
notify the user of something without interrupting their work with a
dialog box that they must close. Passive popups can automatically
disappear after a short period of time.

Conky is a system monitor for X originally based on the torsmo code.
Since it's original conception, Conky has changed a fair bit from it's
predecessor. Conky can display just about anything, either on your root
desktop or in it's own window. Conky has many built-in objects, as well
as the ability to execute programs and scripts, then display the output
from stdout.

Monitord is a compact Perl-based tool for watching the health of UNIX
systems. Monitord monitors the local system by watching the process

and the output of custom monitoring scripts.

The shunt utilites: shunt, exactly, and flyisofs, were originally
written for burning multi-set CDROM backups using mkiosfs and cdrecord.
The key utility -- shunt -- manages recursive access to piped I/O, so that
programs may be restarted and continue to use an existing pipe.

rdiff-backup backs up one directory to another, possibly over a network.
The target directory ends up a copy of the source directory, but extra
reverse diffs are stored in a special subdirectory of that target
directory, so you can still recover files lost some time ago. The idea
is to combine the best features of a mirror and an incremental backup.
rdiff-backup also preserves subdirectories, hard links, dev files,
permissions, uid/gid ownership, modification times, extended attributes,
acls, and resource forks. Also, rdiff-backup can operate in a bandwidth
efficient manner over a pipe, like rsync. Thus you can use rdiff-backup
and ssh to securely back a hard drive up to a remote location, and only
the differences will be transmitted. Finally, rdiff-backup is easy to
use and settings have sensical defaults.

ncdu is an ncurses version of the famous old 'du' unix command. It
provides a fast and easy interface to your harddrive. Where is your disk
space going? Why is your home directory that large? ncdu can answer
those questions for you in just a matter of seconds.
