The libmaa library provides many low-level data structures which are helpful for writing compilers, including hash tables, sets, lists, debugging support, and memory management. Although libmaa was designed and implemented as a foundation for the Khepara transformation system, the data structures are generally applicable to a wide range of programming problems.

The memory management routines are especially helpful for improving the performance of memory-intensive applications.

Lttoolbox is a toolbox for lexical processing, morphological analysis and generation of words. Analysis is the process of splitting a word (e.g. cats) into its lemma "cat" and the grammatical information <n><pl>. Generation is the opposite process.

sdcv is simple text-based utility for work with dictionaries in StarDict's format.

FreeDict is a project that offers over 140 free dictionaries in about 45 languages, with the right to study, change and modify them. You can use them offline on your computer or mobile phone and export them to any format and application.

Translate Shell (formerly Google Translate CLI) is a command-line translator powered by Google Translate (default), Bing Translator, Yandex.Translate and Apertium. It gives you easy access to one of these translation engines from your terminal.

Apertium is a rule based machine translation system featuring a shallow-transfer machine translation engine. The design of the system makes translations fast (translating tens of thousands of words per second on ordinary desktop computers) and, in spite of the errors, reasonably intelligible and easily correctable.

Grammalecte is a grammar checker for the French language, derived from Lightproof.

Grammalecte helps writing a proper French, without distracting users with false positives. This grammar checker follows the principle: the less false positives, the better; if it cannot know with a good chance that a dubious expression is wrong, it keeps silent.

The package provides the command line interface, along with a server and a Python library.

This package provides a versioned python wrapper package for The CMU Pronouncing Dictionary data files.

The DICT Interchange Format (DICF) is a human-readable format for the interchange of dictionary databases for the use with DICT protocol client/server software.

This package provides a client dict and a server program dictd for the DICT protocol, as well as a utility dictfmt to convert various dictionary formats into dictionaries that can be served by dictd or Dico.

A package providing two classic Unix commands, style and diction. Diction is used to identify wordy and commonly misused phrases in a body of text. Style instead analyzes surface aspects of a written work, such as sentence length and other readability measures.

CMUdict (the Carnegie Mellon Pronouncing Dictionary) is a free pronouncing dictionary of English, suitable for uses in speech technology and is maintained by the Speech Group in the School of Computer Science at Carnegie Mellon University.

GNU Dico implements a flexible dictionary server and client according to RFC 2229 (DICT Server). It is able to access any database available, regardless of format, thanks to its modular structure. New modules may be written in C, Guile or Python. Dico also includes a command-line client, which may be used to query remote dictionary databases.

V.E.R.A. (Virtual Entity of Relevant Acronyms) is a list of computing acronyms distributed as an info document.

Ding is a dictionary lookup program for the X window system. It comes with a German-English dictionary with approximately 270,000 entries.

FreeDict is a project that offers over 140 free dictionaries in about 45 languages, with the right to study, change and modify them. You can use them offline on your computer or mobile phone and export them to any format and application.

In order to limit store size and build complexity, only the build targets that build dictionaries in dictd format are retained when this Guix package is installed.

GCIDE is a free dictionary based on a combination of sources. It can be used via the GNU Dico program or accessed online at http://gcide.gnu.org.ua/

Diffoscope tries to get to the bottom of what makes files or directories different. It recursively unpacks archives of many kinds and transforms various binary formats into more human readable forms to compare them. It can compare two tarballs, ISO images, or PDFs just as easily.

Diffoscope has many optional dependencies; diffoscope --list-missing-tools guix will display optional packages to install.

This is a client for the remote diffoscope service.

Diffoscope tries to get to the bottom of what makes files or directories different. It recursively unpacks archives of many kinds and transforms various binary formats into more human readable forms to compare them. It can compare two tarballs, ISO images, or PDFs just as easily.

Results are displayed by default, stored as local text or html files, or made available via a URL on https://try.diffoscope.org. Results stored on the server are purged after 30 days.

Reprotest builds the same source code twice in different environments, and then checks the binaries produced by each build for differences. If any are found, then diffoscope or diff is used to display them in detail for later analysis.

This package provides a portable hash function and random number generator suitable for use in data structures. Provided by default in Zig, V, and Nim programming language standard libraries.

xxHash is an extremely fast non-cryptographic hash algorithm. It works at speeds close to RAM limits, and comes in both 32- and 64-bit flavours. The code is highly portable, and hashes of the same length are identical on all platforms (both big and little endian).

This package provides Python bindings for the xxHash hash algorithm.

mmc-utils is a command-line tool for configuring and inspecting MMC storage devices from userspace.

GNU Parted is a package for creating and manipulating disk partition tables. It includes a library and command-line utility.
