Branch of Another Project
These projects are branches of other people software.
To facilitate navigating in this list, projects are categorized by their purpose, authorship, and current state. Each project entry lists the categories it pertains to. Clicking on a category name will bring a listing of all projects in that category.
Additionally, a list of related projects is provided where applicable. Each element in that list is a link to the corresponding project entry.
Clicking on a project's name will bring this project's entry as a separate page (a permalink).
Hovering your mouse over the version information of a project shows the list of changes introduced by that version.
Sort controls below allow you to order the list either lexicographically or by the most recent release date, in both directions.
Using the Search control, you can select projects by name. Shell-style globbing patterns (wildcards) are accepted.

apout
It is a modification of the PDP-11 emulator originally written by Warren Toomey, that allows to run binaries from the earliest UNIX distributions.
extrans
This is a modified versions of Romuald Texier’s eXtrans. It was used as the underlying mechanism for Ellinika and Runasimi at early stages of their development, before switching to xmltools.
pound
* Tagging conditional statements All conditional statements that match against a pattern can be tagged using the following option: -tag "T" where T is an arbitrary string. This tag can then be used to refer to a subexpression obtained as a result of matching, for example: Path -tag "dir" -re "^/static(/.*)" Header -tag "type" "Content-Type:([^/]+)/([^;]+)" SetPath "/assets/$1(type).$2(type)$1(dir)" * Changes to the "ACL" statements Two new forms of the ACL statements are provided: - ACL -file "NAME" Reads ACL from the file NAME. The file shall contain a list of CIDRs, one per input line. CIDRs need not be quoted. Empty lines and comments are allowed. The file is read once, at program startup. - ACL -filewatch "NAME" Same as above, but the file will be monitored for changes during the runtime. If a change is detected, the file will be rescanned and the ACL updated. To ensure file changes are noticed immediately, pound relies on filesystem monitoring API provided by the operating system - inotify on GNU/Linux systems and kqueue on BSD. On systems not supporting either interface, the file will be checked periodically. The interval between two successive checks is defined by the WatcherTTL global directive. The corresponding new forms are implemented for all ACL statements, i.e.: - Named ACLs: ACL "name" -file "filename" ACL "name" -filewatch "filename" - Trusted IP lists: TrustedIP -file "filename" TrustedIP -filewatch "filename" * Use of "-filewatch" with request matching directives In addition to ACL, the -filewatch flag discussed above can be used with the following request matching directives: Header, Path, Query, QueryParam, StringMatch, URL. * Changes to the "BasicAuth" statement The statement takes an option: -filewatch or -file. The option -filewatch is the default (see above). The -file option can be used to disable file change monitoring. * Changes to the "Header" statement New statement form is introduced: Header "FIELD" [OPTIONS] "VALUE" In this form, pattern modification options apply to header value only, e.g. Header "Content-Type" -beg "text/" * New special backend "SendFile" This backend treats the path part of the request as local file name and sends back the contents of that file, if it exists. Default content type is "text/plain". Both parameters can be changed using request (for file name), and response (for content type) rewriting. The syntax is: SendFile DIR where DIR specifies the directory from which to serve files. * Error file contents Error file supplied with "Error", "ErrorFile", or any "ErrNNN" directvie, can begin with HTTP headers. If so, these will be sent along with the response, and the actual response contents will begin after the empty line that terminates the headers. * Error response rewriting When a regular backend responds with an error, the content (body) of that response can be replaced with an arbitrary custom page. For this to work, the listener must define a custom page for the status code in question using the ErrorFile statement, and error response rewriting must be explicitly enabled. The latter is done with the following statement: RewriteErrors on The statement can be used both in ListenHTTP (ListenHTTPS) and in Service blocks, the latter overriding the former. * Bugfixes ** Improper pattern handling in patterns read from file When using -file with one of the following pattern types: -exact, -beg, -end, -contain, only first pattern from the file was compiled using the requested pattern type. Remaining ones were treated as POSIX regular expressions.
Pound is a reverse proxy, load balancer and HTTPS front-end for Web servers. It was developed to enable distributing load among several Web-servers and to allow for a convenient SSL wrapper for those Web servers that do not offer it natively.
Pound was originally developed by Robert Segall at Apsis GmbH. I took over its development when Robert announced that he abandons it.
