The drm_tools package contains the following commands:

accudate

An extended version of the "date" program that has sub-second accuracy.

binformat

Format complex binary data into text.

binload

Load data into a binary file using simple commands from the input.

binorder

Sort, merge, search, retrieve or generate test data consisting of fixed size binary records.

binreplace

Find or find/replace in binary files.

binsplit

Split test data consisting of fixed size binary records into one or more output streams.

chardiff

Find changes between two files at the character level. Unlike "diff", it lists just the characters that differ, so if the 40,000th character is different only that one character will be shown, not the entire line.

columnadd

Add columns of integers, decimals, and/or times.

datasniffer

A utility for formatting binary data dumps.

dmath

Double precision interactive command line math calculator.

extract

Extract and emit data from text files based on character or token position.

execinput

A utility that reads from STDIN and executes each line as a command in a sub-process.

indexed_text

A utility for rapid retrieval of text by line numbers, in any order, from a text file.

mdump

Format binary data.

msgqueue

Create message queues and send/receive messages.

mbin

dtmbout

Multiple buffer in and out. Used for buffering a lot of data between a slow device and a fast device. Mostly for buffering streaming tape drives for use with slower network connections, so that streaming is maintained as much as possible to minimize wear on the tape device.

pockmark

Corrupt data streams - useful for testing error correction and data recovery.

tarsieve

Filter, list, or split a tar file.

This package provides converters for various bibliography formats (e.g. Bibtex, RIS, etc.) using a common XML intermediate.

odt2txt is a command-line tool which extracts the text out of OpenDocument Texts, as produced by OpenOffice.org, KOffice, StarOffice and others.

odt2txt can also extract text from some file formats similar to OpenDocument Text, such as OpenOffice.org XML (*.sxw), which was used by OpenOffice.org version 1.x and older StarOffice versions. To a lesser extent, odt2txt may be useful to extract content from OpenDocument spreadsheets (*.ods) and OpenDocument presentations (*.odp).

html2text is a command line utility that converts HTML documents into plain text.

Vale is a fully extensible linter that focuses on your own writing style by making use of rules in individual YAML files. It is syntax-aware on markup languages such as HTML, Markdown, Asciidoc, and reStructuredText. The community around it also has a list of style guides implemented with Vale in their styles repo.

This package provides the tldr command allowing users to view tldr pages from a shell. The tldr pages are a community effort to simplify the man pages with practical examples described in https://tldr.sh/.

pfff is a tool for calculating a compact digital fingerprint of a file by sampling randomly from the file instead of reading it in full. Consequently, the computation has a flat performance characteristic, correlated with data variation rather than file size. pfff can be as reliable as existing hashing techniques, with provably negligible risk of collisions.

RSyntaxTextArea is a syntax highlighting, code folding text component for Java Swing. It extends JTextComponent so it integrates completely with the standard javax.swing.text package. It is fast and efficient, and can be used in any application that needs to edit or view source code.

Antiword is an application for displaying Microsoft Word documents. It can also convert the document to PostScript or XML. Only documents made by MS Word version 2 and version 6 or later are supported. The name comes from: "The antidote against people who send Microsoft Word files to everybody, because they believe that everybody runs Windows and therefore runs Word".

GoAWK is a POSIX-compatible version of AWK that also has a CSV mode for reading and writing CSV and TSV files.

This package provides yq, a command-line YAML, JSON and XML processor. It uses jq-like syntax but works with YAML files as well as JSON, XML, properties, CSV and TSV.

libconfuse is a configuration file parser library. 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).

CityHash provides hash functions for strings. The functions mix the input bits thoroughly but are not suitable for cryptography.

docx2txt is a Perl based command line utility to convert Microsoft Office .docx documents to equivalent text documents. Latest version supports following features during text extraction.

• Character conversions; currency characters are converted to respective names like Euro.

• Capitalisation of text blocks.

• Center and right justification of text fitting in a line of (configurable) 80 columns.

• Horizontal ruler, line breaks, paragraphs separation, tabs.

• Indicating hyperlinked text along with the hyperlink (configurable).

• Handling (bullet, decimal, letter, roman) lists along with (attempt at) indentation.

Ustr is a string library for C with very low memory overhead.

Nkf is yet another kanji code converter among networks, hosts and terminals. It converts input kanji code to designated kanji code such as ISO-2022-JP, Shift_JIS, EUC-JP, UTF-8, UTF-16 or UTF-32.

dos2unix is a tool to convert line breaks in a text file from Unix format to DOS format and vice versa.

The two programs are useful for generating test data, for inspecting binary files, and for interfacing programs that generate textual output to programs that require binary input and conversely. They can also be useful when it is desired to reformat numbers.

• ascii2binary reads input consisting of ascii or hexadecimal representation numbers separated by whitespace and produces as output the binary equivalents. The type and precision of the binary output is selected using command line flags.

• binary2ascii reads input consisting of binary numbers and converts them to their ascii or hexadecimal representation. Command line flags specify the type and size of the binary numbers and provide control over the format of the output. Unsigned integers may be written out in binary, octal, decimal, or hexadecimal.

  Signed integers may be written out only in binary or decimal. Floating point numbers may be written out only decimal, either in standard or scientific notation. (If you want to examine the binary representation of floating point numbers, just treat the input as a sequence of unsigned characters.)

utf-8-lineseparator provides a tool to efficiently check text files for valid UTF-8 use and to report which line endings they use.

libgtextutils is a text utilities library used by the fastx toolkit from the Hannon Lab.

txt2tags is a document generator. It reads a text file with minimal markup and converts it to multiple formats.

Open Chinese Convert (OpenCC) converts between Traditional Chinese and Simplified Chinese, supporting character-level conversion, phrase-level conversion, variant conversion, and regional idioms among Mainland China, Taiwan, and Hong-Kong.

utf8proc is a small C library that provides Unicode normalization, case-folding, and other operations for data in the UTF-8 encoding.
