It lets you process your source files by running TeX and related tools (such as output filters, post processors for generating indices and bibliographies, and viewers) from inside Emacs. AUCTeX lets you browse through the errors TeX reported, while it moves the cursor directly to the reported error, and displays some documentation for that particular error. This will even work when the document is spread over several files. . One component of AUCTeX that LaTeX users will find attractive is preview- latex, a combination of folding and in-source previewing that provides true "What You See Is What You Get" experience in your sourcebuffer, while letting you retain full control. preview-latex comes with its own manual. . AUCTeX automatically indents your `LaTeX-source', not only as you write it ---you can also let it indent and format an entire document. It has a special outline feature, which can greatly help you `getting an overview' of a document. . Apart from these special features, AUCTeX provides a large range of handy Emacs macros, which in several different ways can help you write your documents fast and painlessly. . All features of AUCTeX are documented using the GNU Emacs online documentation system. That is, documentation for any command is just a key click away! . AUCTeX is written entirely in Emacs-Lisp, and hence you can easily add new features for your own needs. It has become recently a GNU project. AUCTeX is distributed under the `GNU General Public License Version 2'. . Currently XEmacs ships with its own AUCTeX, so this package should only be used with GNU/Emacs.

Identical files across multiple backups of the same or different PC are stored only once resulting in substantial savings in disk storage and disk writes. Also known as "data deduplication". * Optional compression provides additional reductions in storage. CPU impact of compression is low since only new files (those not already in the pool) need to be compressed. * A powerful http/cgi user interface allows administrators to view log files, configuration, current status and allows users to initiate and cancel backups and browse and restore files from backups very quickly. * No client-side software is needed. On WinXX the smb protocol is used. On Linux or Unix clients, rsync or tar (over ssh/rsh/nfs) can be used * Flexible restore options. Single files can be downloaded from any backup directly from the CGI interface. Zip or Tar archives for selected files or directories can also be downloaded from the CGI interface. * BackupPC supports mobile environments where laptops are only intermittently connected to the network and have dynamic IP addresses (DHCP). * Flexible configuration parameters allow multiple backups to be performed in parallel. * and more to discover in the manual...

The converter comes with a collection of font encodings that cover many of the world languages; notice that the font encoding (so called SFM) does not need to follow the actually used encoding (so called ACM). When the source font does not define a glyph for a symbol in the font encoding the glyph position in the console font is not wasted but used for another symbol. . When deciding about the position in the font for a particular glyph, the converter takes into account that in text video modes the video adapter copies the 8th column of the glyph matrix of symbols positioned in the pseudographic area to the 9th column. In order to create fonts for text video modes the width of the glyph matrix of the source BDF font should be 7, 8 or 9 pixels, otherwise the converter creates fonts suitable for framebuffer only.

Flex is a tool for generating scanners: programs which recognised lexical patterns in text. It reads the given input files for a description of a scanner to generate. The description is in the form of pairs of regular expressions and C code, called rules. Flex generates as output a C source file, lex.yy.c, which defines a routine yylex(). This file is compiled and linked with the -lfl library to produce an executable. When the executable is run, it analyses its input for occurrences of the regular expressions. Whenever it finds one, it executes the corresponding C code. . The behaviour of Flex has undergone a major change since version 2.5.4a. Flex scanners are now reentrant, and it is now possible to have multiple scanners in the same program with differing sets of defaults, and the scanners play nicer with modern C and C++ compilers. The Flip side is that Flex no longer conforms to the POSIX lex behaviour, and the scanners require conforming implementations when flex is used in ANSI C mode. The package flex-old provides the older behaviour. Package: flex-old Description-md5: eb1a2d0f6f9d63de45463c753280b360 Description-en_GB: The old version of the fast lexical analyzer generator. flex is a tool for generating scanners: programs which recognise lexical patterns in text.

Package: kvm Description-md5: 2ae8500dfa6f79efcc76f5403ba350bf Description-en_GB: Full virtualization on i386 and amd64 hardware Using KVM, one can run multiple virtual PCs, each running unmodified Linux or Windows images. Each virtual machine has private virtualised hardware: a network card, disk, graphics adapter, etc. . KVM (for Kernel-based Virtual Machine) is a full virtualization solution for Linux hosts on x86 (32 and 64-bit) hardware. . KVM is intended for systems where the processor has hardware support for virtualization, see below for details. All combinations of 32-bit and 64-bit host and guest systems are supported, except 64-bit guests on 32-bit hosts. . KVM requires your system to support hardware virtualization, provided by AMD's SVM capability or Intel's VT. To find out if your processor has the necessary support, do as follows: . * Make sure you run Linux 2.6.16 or newer for AMD processors, or Linux 2.6.15 for Intel processors. Older Linux versions do not report the virtualization capabilities. . * Run this command in a shell: egrep '^flags.*(vmx|svm)' /proc/cpuinfo . If it prints anything, the processor provides hardware virtualization support and is suitable for use with KVM. . Without hardware support, you can use qemu instead, possibly with the kqemu package for better performance. . The recommended qemu package contains the script /usr/sbin/qemu-make- debian-root, which uses debootstrap to build a Debian disk image. See the man page for qemu-make-debian-root. The suggested hal package is only used for automatically reporting the system bios version and computer model when reporting bugs. . KVM consists of two loadable kernel modules (kvm.ko and either kvm-amd.ko or kvm-intel.ko) and a userspace component. This package contains the userspace component, and you can get the kernel modules from the standard kernel images or build them yourself from the kvm-source package which provides the module source.

The traditional Yi scripts have been in use for centuries, and have a tremendous number of local variants. The script was standardized in the 1970's by the Chinese government. In the process of standardization, 820 symbols from the traditional scripts of the Liangshan region were chosen to form a syllabary. . The syllable inventory of a speech variety from Xide County, Sichuan was used as the phonological basis for standardization. For the most part there is one symbol per phonologically-distinct syllable and vice-versa. The direction of writing and reading was standardized as left-to-right. Punctuation symbols were borrowed from Chinese, and a diacritic was incorporated into the system to mark one of the tones. . Font sources (Fontographer .fog) are available in the source package and on the project website. . Author: Peter Constable, Alex Kotlar, Peter Martin Package: xfonts-unifont Description-md5: 38ac189d3fac2ca98891370d4da5be03 Description-en_GB: PCF (bitmap) version of the GNU Unifont This is a bitmap font in a standard X11 format. The font provides a glyph for each visible code point (character) in the Unicode Basic Multilingual Plane (Plane 0). Plane 0 contains most of the world's modern writing scripts. This font looks best at 12pt. . Complex fonts (such as Indic or Semitic scripts, where letters change shape depending on their position in a word, or such as Mongolian, which is written vertically) will not render perfectly. The philosophy behind this font, though, is that anything meaningful is better than an empty box for a unknown glyph. . Consider using the TrueType version instead (ttf-unifont), because that version is scalable to any point size.
