MyHDL is an open source Python package that lets you go from Python to
silicon. With MyHDL, you can use Python as a hardware description and
verification language. Furthermore, you can convert MyHDL code, that was
developed towards implementation, to Verilog and VHDL automatically, and
take it to a silicon implementation from there.

As the version number shows there are no big changes. The most
interesting are the two median filters for tracks. The first one is
optional and will smooth the elevation to give you better values for the
ascend and descend. The second one one is used for the speed over
distance plot. As median filters are no linear filters the result is
much better for the non linear character of an optimized track.
With this release Albrecht's optimizations for the map edit/create
dialogs are becoming official. Something all netbook users will appreciate.
OK jasper@
coccigrep is a semantic grep for the C language based on coccinelle.
It can be used to find where a given structure is used in code files.
coccigrep depends on the spatch program which comes with coccinelle.
quick contrived example to find lines referencing m_len of a struct
mbuf, regardless of actual variable name:
$ coccigrep -t "struct mbuf" -a m_len /sys/netinet/ip_*.c
This OCaml-library interfaces the PCRE (Perl-compatible regular expression)
library which is written in C. it can be used for matching regular expressions
which are written in the PERL style.
It is reentrant - and thus thread safe. This is not the case with the "Str"
module of OCaml, which builds on the GNU "regex"-library. Using reentrant
libraries also means more convenience for programmers. They do not have to
reason about states in which the library might be in.
The high-level functions for replacement and substitution, all implemented
in OCaml, are much faster than the ones of the "Str"-module. In fact, when
compiled to native code, they even seem to be significantly faster than
those of PERL.
