PseudoPod is an extended set of Pod tags used by O'Reilly and
Associates publishing for book manuscripts. Standard Pod doesn't
have all the markup options you need to mark up files for publishing
production. PseudoPod adds a few extra tags for footnotes, tables,
sidebars, etc.

new version
2013-05-21: date-manip-pm-6.39-1 (Date/time comparisons and calculations)
This is a set of routines designed to make any common date/time
manipulation easy to do. Operations such as comparing two times,
calculating a time a given amount of time from another, or parsing
international times are all easily done. From the very beginning, the main
focus of Date::Manip has been to be able to do ANY desired date/time
operation easily, not necessarily quickly. Also, it is definitely oriented
towards the type of operations we (as people) tend to think of rather than
those operations used routinely by computers. There are other modules that
can do a subset of the operations available in Date::Manip much quicker
than those presented here.
As of version 6, a new object-oriented interface has been added, with more
power and control than the legacy function interface. But version 6 also
requires perl >= 5.10, so be careful to weigh portability vs modernity and
power when writing your code. Package includes both versions, auto-selects
at runtime based on perl version being used.

This is an implementation of Term::ReadLine using the GNU Readline/History
Library.
For basic functions object oriented interface is provided. These are described
in the section "Standard Methods" and "Term::ReadLine::Gnu Functions".
This package also has the interface with the almost all functions and variables
which are documented in the GNU Readline/History Library Manual. They are
documented in the section "Term::ReadLine::Gnu Functions" and
"Term::ReadLine::Gnu Variables" briefly. For more detail of the GNU
Readline/History Library, see 'GNU Readline Library Manual' and 'GNU History
Library Manual'.
The sample programs under eg/ directory and test programs under t/ directory in

2013-05-20: r-base30-3.0.1-3 (R Framework)
R is similar to S, which was developed at Bell Laboratories by John
Chambers et al. It provides a wide variety of statistical and
graphical techniques (linear and nonlinear modelling, statistical
tests, time series analysis, classification, clustering, ...). R is
designed as a true computer language with control-flow constructions
for iteration and alternation, and it allows users to add additional
functionality by defining new functions. For computationally intensive
tasks, C and Fortran code can be linked and called at run time.
The "recommended" R packages are now included in the distribution, so
there is no longer a need for a r-recommended package. If you already
have installed an earlier version of r-recommended, remove it before
installing this package.
Builds R Framework, installs in %p/Library/Frameworks.
R.app no longer included in the R source distribution. To install, go
to http://cran.r-project.org/bin/macosx/, download and install R-GUI.dmg.
You will then need to edit Info.plist inside the app bundle to point
to %p/Library/R.Framework (instead of /Library/R.Framework).

rNMR is an open source software package for visualizing and interpreting one
and two dimensional NMR data. In contrast to most existing 2D NMR software,
rNMR is specifically designed for high-throughput assignment and quantification
of small molecules. As a result, rNMR supports extensive batch manipulation of

2013-05-20: rose-html-objects-pm5100-0.618-1 (Object-oriented interfaces for HTML)
The Rose::HTML::Object::* family of classes represent HTML tags, or
groups of tags. These objects allow HTML to be arbitrarily
manipulated, then serialized to actual HTML (or XHTML). Currently,
the process only works in one direction. Objects cannot be
constructed from their serialized representations. In practice,
given the purpose of these modules, this is not an important limitation.
Any HTML tag can theoretically be represented by a
Rose::HTML::Object-derived class, but this family of modules was
originally motivated by a desire to simplify the use of HTML forms.

2013-05-20: set-intspan-pm-1.19-1 (Manage sets of integers for long runs of ints)
Set::IntSpan manages sets of integers. It is optimized for sets that
have long runs of consecutive integers. These arise, for example, in
.newsrc files, which maintain lists of articles:
alt.foo: 1-21,28,31
alt.bar: 1-14192,14194,14196-14221
Sets are stored internally in a run-length coded form. This provides
for both compact storage and efficient computation. In particular,
set operations can be performed directly on the encoded
representation.

2013-05-20: gnupg2-2.0.18-3 (Gnu privacy guard - A Free PGP replacement)
GnuPG is GNU's tool for secure communication and data
storage. It can be used to encrypt data and to create digital
signatures. It includes an advanced key management facility and is
compliant with the proposed OpenPGP Internet standard as described in
RFC2440.
GnuPG does not use use any patented algorithms so it cannot be
compatible with PGP2 because it uses IDEA (which is patented
worldwide) and RSA. RSA's patent expired on the 20th September 2000,
and it is now included in GnuPG.

2013-05-20: libassuan2-2.0.1-4 (Safer IPC library)
Libassuan is a small library implementing the so-called Assuan
protocol. This protocol is used for IPC between most newer GnuPG
components. Both, server and client side functions are provided.
Assuan was developed for use by the GNU Privacy Guard, GnuPG, to
prevent potentially buggy clients from unwittingly corrupting
sensitive transactions or compromising data such as a secret key.
Assuan permits the servers, which do the actual work, e.g. encryption
and decryption of data using a secret key, to be developed
independently of the user interfaces, e.g. mail clients and other
encryption front ends. Like a shared library, the interface is well
defined and any number of front ends can use it; however, unlike a
shared library, the client cannot see or touch the server's data. As
with any modular system, Assuan helps keep the servers small and
understandable help to make code more understandable and less error
prone.

This is Crypt::CBC, a Perl-only implementation of the cryptographic
cipher block chaining mode (CBC). In combination with a block cipher
such as Crypt::DES or Crypt::IDEA, you can encrypt and decrypt
messages of arbitrarily long length. The encrypted messages are
compatible with the encryption format used by SSLeay.
In addition to this module you will need to install the MD5 module,
and one or more of: Crypt::DES, Crypt::DES_EDE3, Crypt::IDEA,
Crypt::Blowfish, or Crypt::Rijndael modules.
1. Digest::MD5
Required for key and iteration vector generation.
2. Crypt::DES
Required for the DES encryption algorithm.
3. Crypt::DES_EDE3
Required for the triple DES encryption algorithm in Encrypt Decrypt
Encrypt mode. Note, this depends on Crypt::DES.
4. Crypt::IDEA
Required for the IDEA encryption algorithm.
5. Crypt::Blowfish
Required for the Blowfish encryption algorithm.
6. Crypt::Blowfish_PP
Required for the Blowfish_PP encryption algorithm.
7. Crypt::Rijndael

RPy is a very simple, yet robust, interface to the R Programming Language.
It can manage all kinds of R objects and can execute arbitrary R functions
(including the graphic functions). All the errors from the R language are
converted to Python exceptions.
RPy2 is a redesign/rewrite of RPy, providing not only high-level interfaces
to R but also a lower-level interface upon which build custom high-level
interfaces.
Doesn't work with quartz graphics device (need a Framework build of python
for that).

You can specify the test plan when you "use Test::Exception" in the same
way as "use Test::More". See Test::More for details.

It uses the `getaddrinfo(3)' function to convert hostnames and service
names or port numbers into sets of possible addresses to connect to or
listen on. This allows it to work for IPv6 where the system supports it,
while still falling back to IPv4-only on systems which don't.

If you have been led to believe that associative arrays in perl

this module is for you. Simply declare a "tie" for the hash variable
that you want to be order-preserving, and forget that limitation
ever existed. You can do other nifty things with the tied hash object
that you may be used to doing with arrays, like Push(), Pop() and
Splice().
If you don't know what "tie" means, you should look at the
perltie(1) manpage in a recent perl distribution, or in the
index of one of the numerous books on perl.

recognizes Internet quoting conventions, a wide range of bulleting and
number schemes, centred text, and block quotations, and reformats each

capitalization schemes.
The module also supplies a re-entrant, highly configurable replacement
