libdaemon is a lightweight C library that eases the writing of UNIX
daemons. It consists of the following parts:
* A wrapper around fork() which does the correct daemonization procedure
of a process
* A wrapper around syslog() for simpler and compatible log output to
Syslog or STDERR
* An API for writing PID files
* An API for serializing UNIX signals into a pipe for usage with
select() or poll()
* An API for running subprocesses with STDOUT and STDERR redirected to
syslog.

libConfuse is a configuration file parser library, and written in C. It
supports sections and (lists of) values (strings, integers, floats,
booleans or other sections), as well as some other features (such as
single/double-quoted strings, environment variable expansion, functions
and nested include statements). It makes it very easy to add
configuration file capability to a program using a simple API.

The Inline module allows you to put source code from other programming
languages directly "inline" in a Perl script or module. The code is
automatically compiled as needed, and then loaded for immediate access
from Perl.

TkDiff is a graphical front end to the diff program. It provides a
side-by-side view of the differences between two files, along with
several innovative features such as diff bookmarks and a graphical map
of differences for quick navigation.
