The event MPM is designed to allow more requests to be served simultaneously by passing off some processing work to supporting threads, freeing up the main threads to work on new requests. It is especially suitable for sites that see extensive KeepAlive traffic. . This MPM is experimental and less tested than the worker and prefork MPMs. Package: apache2-mpm-prefork Description-md5: 176c61a82dfd04a8e0bdb0bf3825ab27 Description-en_CA: Apache HTTP Server - traditional non-threaded model Each Apache Multi-Processing Module provides a different "flavour" of web server binary, compiled with a different processing model. . The prefork MPM provides a non-threaded, pre-forking implementation that handles requests in a manner similar to Apache 1.3. It is not as fast as threaded models, but is considered to be more stable. It is appropriate for sites that need to maintain compatibility with non-thread-safe libraries, and is the best MPM for isolating each request, so that a problem with a single request will not affect any other. Package: apache2-mpm-worker Description-md5: 5c9df5383d0a2631ae15ced2ca0389d7 Description-en_CA: Apache HTTP Server - high speed threaded model Each Apache Multi-Processing Module provides a different "flavour" of web server binary, compiled with a different processing model. .

Its main feature is that it does a much better job of suggesting possible spellings than just about any other spell-checker available for the English language, including Ispell and Microsoft Word. It also has many other technical enhancements over Ispell such as using shared memory for dictionaries and intelligently handling personal dictionaries when more than one Aspell process is open at once. . Aspell is designed to be a drop-in replacement for Ispell.

Package: auctex Description-md5: 37416b65acb2b4602c1a9f8eaed3a2ba Description-en_CA: An integrated environment for editing TeX and friends documents AUCTeX is a comprehensive customizable integrated environment for writing input files for TeX/LaTeX/ConTeXt/Texinfo using Emacs. . 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. (I.e., you don't need to install this package if your site uses only XEmacs.) . Homepage: http://www.gnu.org/software/auctex/ Package: libnet-smtp-server-perl Description-md5: e3534428a402c1f6f130c70ac97a5f46 Description-en_CA: A native Perl SMTP Server implementation for Perl The Net::SMTP::Server module implements an RFC 821 compliant SMTP server, completely in Perl. It's extremely extensible, so adding in things like spam filtering, or more advanced routing and handling features can be easily handled. An additional module, Net::SMTP::Server::Relay has also been implemented as an example of just one application of this extensibility. See the pod for more details on that module. This extension has been tested on both Unix and Win32 platforms. . Creating a new server is as trivial as: . $server = new Net::SMTP::Server($host, $port); . This creates a new SMTP::Server. Both $host and $port are optional, and default to the current hostname and the standard SMTP port (25). However, if you run on a multi-homed machine, you may want to explicitly specify which interface to bind to. . Homepage: http://www.macgyver.org/software/perl
