The File::Tail module is designed for reading files which are
continously appended to (the name comes from the tail -f directive).
Usually such files are logfiles of some description.
The module tries hard not to busy wait on the file, dynamically
calcultaing how long it should wait before it pays to try reading
the file again.
The module should handle normal log truncations ("close; move; open"
or "cat /dev/null >file") transparently, without losing any input.

This is the perl5 TimeDate distribution.
This distribution replaces the earlier GetDate distribution, which
was only a date parser. The date parser contained in this distribution
is far superior to the yacc based parser, and a *lot* fatser.
The parser contained here will only parse absolute dates, if you
want a date parser that can parse relative dates then take a look
at the Time modules by David Muir on CPAN.

This package consists of a C library and a Perl module (which uses
the C library, internally) for all kinds of date calculations based
on the Gregorian calendar (the one used in all western countries
today), thereby complying with all relevant norms and standards:
ISO/R 2015-1971, DIN 1355 and, to some extent, ISO 8601 (where
applicable).
- someone forgot to remove the PLIST.noshared on the switch over to the
new PLIST framework which just negates the switch for archs without
shared libraries.
BIND 9.0.0 is the first "general availability" release of BIND
version 9. It is aimed at early adopters and those who wish to
make use of new 9.0 features, such as IPv6 and DNSSEC secure
resolution support.
- pkg/COMMENT no longer starts with a capital
- pkg/DESCR uses value of HOMEPAGE
- lots more fonts added to PLIST from contributed.tar.gz
- define DISTNAME to make things cleaner
- patch-aa renamed to patch-figlet
- added patch-figlist to code in default location of fonts
- removed patch-ab since Aaron's port just passes MAKE_FLAGS
- removed FAKE_FLAGS completely and do the install manually
- added HOMEPAGE
- general Makefile cleaning (bump NEED_VERSION etc)
- add RCS ids everywhere that needs them
- take maintainership

unix-mx driver doesn't set file permissions properly for non-private
messages (e.g. public#). The problem caused by mx_append procedure,
where the driver doesn't call set_mbx_permissions for just created
message file.

From: FreeBSD
trafd is a superset of trafshow, and extends it by adding a daemon
which collects data about network connections (src, dst, protocol
and length). The resulting data can be dumped to a file for later
processing.
