python3-bornagain

Simulate and fit X-ray and neutron GISAS -- Python3

BornAgain is a software package to simulate and fit small-angle scattering at grazing incidence. It supports analysis of both X-ray (GISAXS) and neutron (GISANS) data. Calculations are carried out in the framework of the distorted wave Born approximation (DWBA). BornAgain provides a graphical user interface for interactive use as well as a generic Python and C++ framework for modeling multilayer samples with smooth or rough interfaces and with various types of embedded nanoparticles.

gittuf

security layer for Git repositories (program)

gittuf is a security layer for Git repositories. With gittuf, any developer who can pull from a Git repository can independently verify that the repository's security policies were followed. gittuf's policy, inspired by The Update Framework (TUF) (https://theupdateframework.io/), handles key management for all trusted developers in a repository, allows for setting permissions for repository branches, tags, files, etc., protects against other attacks (https://ssl.engineering.nyu.edu/papers/torres_toto_usenixsec-2016.pdf) Git is vulnerable to, and more — all while being backwards compatible with forges such as GitHub and GitLab.

libthread-tie-perl

alternative separate thread implementation of shared variables

The standard shared variable scheme used by Perl, is based on tie-ing the variable to some very special dark magic. This dark magic ensures that shared variables, which are copied just as any other variable when a thread is started, update values in all of the threads where they exist as soon as the value of a shared variable is changed.

elpa-auto-dictionary

automatic dictionary switcher for Emacs spell checking

Auto-dictionary is a minor mode that hooks into Flyspell's on-the-fly spell checking and extends these checks to also detect language. Auto-dictionary then sets 'ispell-dictionary' to use the detected language. This package is useful for bilingual and multilingual Emacs users.

gobject-introspection

Generate interface introspection data for GObject libraries

GObject Introspection is a project for providing machine readable introspection data of the API of C libraries. This introspection data can be used in several different use cases, for example automatic code generation for bindings, API verification and documentation generation.
