b43-fwcutter can extract the firmware for your Broadcom 43xx hardware from different closed source drivers. The b43 driver depends on these firmware files and can't work without them. Currently b43-fwcutter supports Apple MacOS X, Microsoft Windows and Linux drivers, but keep in mind that b43-fwcutter doesn't support all driver versions.

Keybase is a key directory that maps social media identities to encryption keys (including, but not limited to PGP keys) in a publicly auditable manner. Additionally it offers an end-to-end encrypted chat and cloud storage system, called Keybase Chat and the Keybase Filesystem respectively. Files placed in the public portion of the filesystem are served from a public endpoint, as well as locally from a filesystem union-mounted by the Keybase client.

Python wrapper for Brave's adblocking library, which is written in Rust.

This program uncompresses text files that were compressed using the lossy text compression tool (ltzip). Like ltzip, ltunzip is also a lossy algorithm, and so performs lossy uncompression. There is a high probability that the original text file will NOT be returned. The result file has a ".un" extension, and the original ltz file remains.

psss is ps with StarSign, and inserts a field to display the starsign of the process. The Starsign is calculated from the proc->p_mstart value. Some OSes do maintain this as a "struct starsign *p_starsign" in the proc structure, which this program currently does not use.

This program converts text to l33t-speak. This is helpful to convert text that has been written in a formal and confusing manner, into text that is easy to follow.

This program compresses text files using a unique lossy text compression algorithm. Decompression is not possible. The result file has a ".ltz" extension, and the original file remains.

Not only is the byte count reduced, but the bytes themselves are smaller bytes - and weigh less when stored on disk.

This implements a new configurable encryption algorithm, NROT13. This is similar to the 3ROT13 algorithm, a symmetric stateless keyless cypher, however this allows the user to customise the number of cycles. For example, 3ROT13 can be used, as well as 9ROT13 and even the supersymmetric 31ROT13.

lsss is ls with StarSign, an improved ls command. This runs the ls command and inserts a field to display the starsign of each file.

This trickle charges the ICMP driver by sending a series of ICMP packets to localhost at regular intervals. This program autodetects the hardware type and uses appropriate values for the interval based on the wattage of each packet. This script can be incorporated into the system startup process as a daemon.

The batteries in the kernel's ICMP driver can become depleted, a common problem that causes high latency or dropped packets for any ICMP type. RFC792 fails to specify an ICMP message for battery status, leaving such problems difficult to identify or diagnose. This script serves as a precaution against ICMP driver failure.

This program also improves the performance of the ICMP driver by "priming" the L1, L2 and TLB caches with ICMP driver entries.

This allows older commands to be executed safely at their original native baud. Commands are now often run over high speed telnet or ssh sessions, at speeds they were not designed for - sometimes called "overbauding". Overbauding can cause command overheating, resulting in Command Fault Heat State Exception (CFHSE) errors.

Many command line programs, especially those for Unix, were originally written to run at bauds such as 300, 1200, 2400 or even 9600. This was the days of serial connections to teletypes or dumb terminals (aka glass teletypes, green screens, etc). While links to servers have increased in speed, the code for most commands has remained the same. Some operating systems have a man page, fastcommands(5), that lists commands that are high speed link safe.

This checks and enables network routes to the Information Super Highway to ensure maximum Internet performance. Must be run as root to update the routes.

Once upon a time computers were made with a physical turbo button that doubled the CPU speed. These days we need to make do with a script.

This program creates one or more zombies and a daemon their leader. It can be used to replenish system zombies, or to feed the init monster.

gwhiz will whiz files or commands, making them easier to read so that you do not miss important details. If your terminal supports color, gwhiz can highlight in colour using the "-c" option.

Maybe is a companion to /usr/bin/true and /usr/bin/false.

This implements a new encryption algorithm, 3ROT13. This is a symmetric cypher that has a number of desirable features over existing algorithms; firstly it is stateless - this allows recovery of any random substring from the cyphertext, which is especially useful if portions of the cyphertext are lost or damaged. 3rot13 is also keyless, removing the need to worry about key storage or key lengths. Finally ROT13 is fast. Should a higher performance be desired this code can be reworked in C.

This is the opposite of top, it displays processes that are using the least CPU. It is the companion to the "prstat" command.
