Arbitrary Command Output Colourer 0.2.6 http://freshmeat.net/releases/127371/

acoc is a regular-expression based colour formatter for programs that display output on the command-line. It works as a wrapper around the target program, executing it and capturing the stdout stream. Optionally, stderr can be redirected to stdout, so that it, too, can be manipulated. acoc then applies matching rules to patterns in the output and applies colours to those matches.

Python SAP RFC module 0.2.1
http://freshmeat.net/releases/127380/

The Python SAP RFC module enables programming remote function calls from SAP ERP systems.

It needs the SAP librfc shared library.

rdiff-backup 0.12.0
http://freshmeat.net/releases/127369/

rdiff-backup backs up one directory to another. The target directory ends up a copy of the source directory, but extra reverse diffs are stored in a special directory so you can still recover files lost some time ago. The idea is to combine the best features of a mirror and an incremental backup. rdiff-backup can also operate in a bandwidthefficient manner over a pipe, like rsync. Thus you can use rdiff-backup and ssh to securely back up to a remote location, and only the differences will be transmitted. It can also handle symlinks, device files, permissions, ownership, etc., so it can be used on the entire file system.

Timestamps can be used if you prefer. SCons also supports parallel builds and is easily extensible through user-defined builder and scanner objects.

SFT 0.4.8 (Stable)
http://freshmeat.net/releases/127415/

SFT (Simple File Transfer) is a file transfer program, a bit like rcp. It is designed to simplify file transfers from one computer to an another when they are connected to the Internet.

The music can be re-encoded on the fly to any bitrate. The system is secure, so that only you have access to your music.

Vertoo 0.6
http://freshmeat.net/releases/127393/

Vertoo is a tool that lightens a developer's burden to maintain up-to-date versioning information across project's files. Vertoo provides a simple interface to change the version of a project and distribute these changes through the project's files. A configuration file describes the versions used in a project (each in arbitrary, user-specified scheme) and the formats for each of the occurrences of the version's data in the project files.
