Unix Software

Here you will find some programs that I've written. They should in theory run on any common Unix/POSIX platform without problems. All of them are released under the GNU Public License.

• MP3Shell v1.2.20, a simple Tcl/Tk GUI for the mpg123 MP3 player by Michael Hipp.
• TkNap v0.5.21, a bare-bones napster client written in Tcl/Tk. It supports chat, firewalled download and upload, hotlist and a limited set of privileged user (e.g. moderator/admin) commands.
• XmNap v0.2.13, a Motif napster client. It bears some resemblance with TkNap, although it differs in several areas, such as using a dedicated configuration window. It is also generally much faster, since it is written in C. Like TkNap, it supports chat, firewalled download and upload, hotlist and a limited set of privileged user commands.
  You will need Motif 2.0 or later to build this program. If you are using an open-source system such as Linux or FreeBSD, you can download Motif from the net. Metrolink has a nice release out with many bugs fixed. Please visit this link for details.
• JavaNap, the beginnings of a Java napster client. Still experimental, but download and chat seems to work ok.
• v2strip v0.2.10, removes ID3v2 tags from MP3 files.
• ximp3 v0.1.15, a simple console MP3 player. It is based on the GPL’ed Xing decoder also used in FreeAmp.
• ximp3shell v0.1.12, a simple Tcl/Tk GUI for the player above.
• Juke v0.1, a simple MIDI/RMF player in Java.
• JukeCon v0.1, a simple console MIDI/RMF player in Java.
• PGopher v0.1.7, a simple Gopher client in Perl.
