FSUM 2.52


A fast and handy command line utility for file integrity verification. It offers a choice of 13 of the most popular hash and checksum functions for file message digest and checksum calculation.

Major Features:

  • Possibility to calculate a file message digest and/or a checksum using any of the 12 well-known and documented hash and checksum algorithms: MD2, MD4, MD5, SHA-1, SHA-2( 256, 384, 512), RIPEMD-160, PANAMA, TIGER, ADLER32, CRC32;

  • Support of a custom hash algorithm (MD4-based) used in eDonkey and eMule applications;

  • Possibility to act recursively. FSUM can operate not only on files from a specific directory, but also on files from all subdirectories of the specified directory;

  • Work with large size files. (Tested on file sizes of up to 15 GB);

  • Full compatibility with md5sum utility;

  • Full .MD5 and .SFV file formats support;

  • Automatic recognition of checksum file format (.MD5 or .SFV) while checking;

  • Generates/verifies hashes/checksums for files of any type: music, audio, sound, video, image, icon, text, compression, etc., with the extensions: .mp3, .wav, .avi, .mpg, .midi, .mov, .dvd, .ram, .zip, .rar, .ico, .gif, .pif, .pic, .tif, .tiff, .txt, .doc, .pdf, .wps, .dat, .dll, .hex, .bin, .iso, .cpp, .dss, .par, .pps, .cue, .ram, .md5, .sfv, etc.

Details:

The most common use for FSUM is checking data files for corruption. A message digest or checksum calculation might be performed on data before transferring it from one location to another. Making the same calculation after the transfer and comparing the before and after results, you can determine if the received data is corrupted or not. If the results match, then the received data is likely accurate.

ABYSS - Free web server

What is it?
ABYSS aims to be a fully HTTP/1.1 compliant web server. Its main design goals are speed, low resource usage and portability. ABYSS works on most UNIX based systems and on Win32 systems (Win95/98/2000/NT).

Why bother writing another HTTP server?
HTTP servers used nowadays are too complex and/or system dependant. This can be explained by two facts:

* They are based on old software (CERN httpd or NCSA httpd) which was written in the beginning of the 90's with no portability or modularity in mind.
* They are getting bigger from version to version as they need to support evolution of standards.

Started as a personal challenge, ABYSS project tries to avoid the mistakes found in the design of other servers. ABYSS characteristics/features are:

* Built from scratch
* Modular
* Customizable: you can build a version which includes only the features you need.
* Highly portable: it is written in ANSI C.
* Low memory use.
* Low system load.
* Tiny: on Linux, the executable size is about 35kB.
* Fast: On stable developement releases, it is 70% as fast as Apache. When using threads, this rate is 130%.

    Rainlendar is a feature rich calendar application that is easy to use and doesn't take much space on your desktop. The application is platform independent so you can run it both on Windows and on Linux. The appearance can be customized with skins and you can even mix different skins together.

Rainlendar uses the standard iCalendar format to store its events and tasks so you can easily transfer them between applications. You can also subscribe to online calendars and see your Outlook appointments directly in Rainlendar*.

    Rainlendar is an unicode application and support localization so you can use it on your own language.

    All the coming events are shown in a separate list where you can see the week's events at one glance. You can decide how many days in advance you want to see in the list. Different events can have a different appearance in the list so you can easily spot the important events from the others. The icons in the calendar are also available in the event list and other windows to make it easier to separate the events.

    You can also have a separate list for your long term tasks. The task list can be arranged several ways so that you can keep it better organized. You can also set a due date for the tasks to make sure you'll remember to do them on time.
    You'll also get an alarm when an event or task is due so that you don't miss it. The alarm can be defined to be set off any duration before the actual event so you have time to prepare for it.

    And that's not all. Check the list of features for better overview of all the things Rainlendar can do. If you find it useful go to the download page and get yourself a copy.
