- This file describes how to use and modify the PNG reference library
(known as libpng) for your own use. There are five sections to this
file: introduction, structures, reading, writing, and modification and
configuration notes for various special platforms. In addition to this
file, example.c is a good starting point for using the library, as
it is heavily commented and should include everything most people
will need. We assume that libpng is already installed; see the
INSTALL file for instructions on how to install libpng.
Libpng was written as a companion to the PNG specification, as a way
of reducing the amount of time and effort it takes to support the PNG
file format in application programs. The PNG specification is available
as RFC 2083 <http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc2083.txt> and as a
W3C Recommendation <http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-png-multi.html>. Some
additional chunks are described in the special-purpose public chunks
documents at <ftp://ftp.uu.net/graphics/png/documents/>. Other information
about PNG, and the latest version of libpng, can be found at the PNG home
page, <http://www.libpng.org/pub/png/>.

- GIO (GLib) Reference Manual
(package: libglib2.0-doc)
- GIO is striving to provide a modern, easy-to-use VFS API that sits at
the right level in the library stack. The goal is to overcome the shortcomings
of GnomeVFS and provide an API that is so good that developers prefer it over
raw POSIX calls. Among other things that means using GObject. It also means
not cloning the POSIX API, but providing higher-level, document-centric
interfaces.
- GLib Reference Manual
(package: libglib2.0-doc)
- The GLib C library is used in GTK+ and GNOME
programs as a general-purpose set of functions for hash, tree, list,
and string operations, which C is oddly lacking whatsoever in any
of its standard libraries.
- GObject (GLib) Reference Manual
(package: libglib2.0-doc)
- Most modern programming languages come with their own native object
systems and additional fundamental algorithmic language constructs.
Just as GLib serves as an implementation of such fundamental
types and algorithms (linked lists, hash tables and so forth), the
GLib Object System provides the required implementations of a
flexible extensible and intentionally easy to map (into other
languages) object oriented framework for C.
- The GNU C Library Reference Manual
(package: glibc-doc-reference)
- The GNU C Library Reference Manual
The GNU C library, described in this document, defines all of the
library functions that are specified by the ISO C standard, as well as
additional features specific to POSIX and other derivatives of the Unix
operating system, and extensions specific to the GNU system.
The purpose of this manual is to tell you how to use the facilities
of the GNU library. We have mentioned which features belong to which
standards to help you identify things that are potentially non-portable
to other systems. But the emphasis in this manual is not on strict
portability.

- Distributing Python Modules (v3.1)
(package: python3.1-doc)
- This document describes the Python Distribution Utilities
(``Distutils'') from the module developer's point-of-view, describing
how to use the Distutils to make Python modules and extensions easily
available to a wider audience with very little overhead for
build/release/install mechanics.
- Documenting Python (v3.1)
(package: python3.1-doc)
- The Python language has a substantial body of documentation, much
of it contributed by various authors. The markup used for the Python
documentation is based on LATEX and requires a significant set of
macros written specifically for documenting Python. This document
describes the macros introduced to support Python documentation and
how they should be used to support a wide range of output formats.
This document describes the document classes and special markup used
in the Python documentation. Authors may use this guide, in
conjunction with the template files provided with the distribution,
to create or maintain whole documents or sections.
- Extending and Embedding the Python Interpreter (v3.1)
(package: python3.1-doc)
- This document describes how to write modules in C or C++ to extend
the Python interpreter with new modules. Those modules can define
new functions but also new object types and their methods. The
document also describes how to embed the Python interpreter in
another application, for use as an extension language. Finally,
it shows how to compile and link extension modules so that they
can be loaded dynamically (at run time) into the interpreter, if
the underlying operating system supports this feature.
- Installing Python Modules (v3.1)
(package: python3.1-doc)
- This document describes the Python Distribution Utilities
(``Distutils'') from the end-user's point-of-view, describing how to
extend the capabilities of a standard Python installation by building
and installing third-party Python modules and extensions.
- PyCrypto API Documentation
(package: python-crypto)
Python Crypto is a collection of cryptographic algorithms and
protocols, implemented for use from Python. This is the API documentation
for it.
- Python Library Reference (v3.1)
(package: python3.1-doc)
- This library reference manual documents Python's standard library,
as well as many optional library modules (which may or may not be
available, depending on whether the underlying platform supports
them and on the configuration choices made at compile time). It
also documents the standard types of the language and its built-in
functions and exceptions, many of which are not or incompletely
documented in the Reference Manual.
- Python Reference Manual (v3.1)
(package: python3.1-doc)
- This reference manual describes the syntax and "core semantics" of
the language. It is terse, but attempts to be exact and complete.
The semantics of non-essential built-in object types and of the
built-in functions and modules are described in the *Python
Library Reference*. For an informal introduction to the language,
see the *Python Tutorial*. For C or C++ programmers, two
additional manuals exist: *Extending and Embedding the Python
Interpreter* describes the high-level picture of how to write a
Python extension module, and the *Python/C API Reference Manual*
describes the interfaces available to C/C++ programmers in detail.
- Python Tutorial (v3.1)
(package: python3.1-doc)
- This tutorial introduces the reader informally to the basic
concepts and features of the Python language and system. It helps
to have a Python interpreter handy for hands-on experience, but
all examples are self-contained, so the tutorial can be read
off-line as well.
- Python/C API Reference Manual (v3.1)
(package: python3.1-doc)
- This manual documents the API used by C (or C++) programmers who
want to write extension modules or embed Python. It is a
companion to *Extending and Embedding the Python Interpreter*,
which describes the general principles of extension writing but
does not document the API functions in detail.
- What's new in Python 3.1
(package: python3.1-doc)
- This documents lists new features and changes worth mentioning
in Python 3.1.
- The RRDCacheD Manual
(package: rrdcached)
- This is the manual for RRDCacheD, a daemon that receives updates to
existing RRD files, accumulates them and, if enough have been received or a
defined time has passed, writes the updates to the RRD file. The daemon was
written with big setups in mind. Those setups usually run into I/O related
problems. RRDCacheD's goal is to alleviate these problems.
- The RRDtool Manual
(package: rrdtool)
- This is the manual for RRDtool, a time-series data storage and
display system. RRDtool allows to store time-series data (e.g. network
bandwidth, machine-room temperature, server load average) and create
graphical representations of that data. It stores the data in Round Robin
Databases (RRDs), a very compact way that will not expand over time. RRDtool
processes the extracted data to enforce a certain data density, allowing for
useful graphical representation of data values.
- AVRDUDE Manual
(package: avrdude-doc)
- AVRDUDE is an open source utility to
download/upload/manipulate the ROM and EEPROM
contents of AVR microcontrollers using the
in-system programming technique (ISP).

- EsounD - The Enlightened Sound Daemon
(package: esound-common)
- The Enlightened Sound Daemon can mix several audio streams
into one sound device. It will mix in pre-loaded samples, too. Want to
play a frightening sound whenever the user presses the "go" button? No
problem, just cache it, and play it back by sample id number.

such as a radio or satellite receiver or modem. It provides client
accuracies typically within a millisecond on LANs and up to a few tens of
milliseconds on WANs.
