DOM Tooltip 0.3.0

They include a send/receive daemon and some sample scripts     to build an SMS email gateway and for logging into an SQL database. The     daemon waits for files in an outgoing spool directory and sends them.     It puts all received SMS in an incoming spool directory, and can call     any external program for incoming or outgoing notification.

ulim 1.0
http://freshmeat.net/releases/105120/

Do you need help?X

    Ulim is a Linux kernel module which enforces resource limits on every     process in the system. There are already solutions like pam_limit, but     there are some places where the user can execute his programs, but PAM     is not used (for example .forward or .procmailrc files, or CGI     scripts). Ulim works in the kernel and sets the limits whenever a     process changes its real UID, so every process run by a user will have     the correct limits.

    wmDrawer is a dockapp which provides a drawer (button bar) from which     applications can be launched.

It is currently under development.

xsel 0.04.1
http://freshmeat.net/releases/105087/

    Xsel is a quick hack to give access to the X selection from the     command-line. You can then copy stuff between stdin/stdout and the X     selection buffer. For example, 'echo puppa | xsel -c' makes     &quot;puppa&quot; the current X selection. 'xsel -p | less' pastes the     current X selection to less.
