A front-end application to the command line application “ssh”. It provides a quick and easy way to start an SSH connection to a remote computer. You may be asking, “What’s the point of running SSH without an interactive command prompt (Terminal)?” Well, running SSH in the background will not supply a prompt, but, it will forward ports. This is the main purpose of iSSH.

You can set two options with iSSH; which ports to forward to the remote computer, or, to start an SSH SOCKS proxy. The first could be used to forward a VNC connection over SSH and the latter could be used to bypass your work’s website filters!

Either way, iSSH offers a simple way to start a SSH connection for those who don’t know how to use the Terminal or just don’t need it.]]> Mon, 14 Apr 2008 00:00:00 PST http://www.apple.com/downloads/macosx/unix_open_source/liten.html Command line tool and library to eliminate duplicates.

About OpenLieroX
Based and compatible to the famous LieroX. LieroX is a 2D shooter game. It is an unofficial sequel to Liero, and is the most popular of all the Liero clones. It features online play, fully customizable weapons, levels and characters. Liero Xtreme was created in C++ by Jason ‘JasonB’ Boettcher, an Australian programmer.

The game is based on a deathmatch setting, where multiple players face off in a closed level. Each player is equipped with five weapons selected out of all the weapons allowed, and with a ninja rope that allows the player to move in any direction. Players begin with a set amount of lives, and whilst the game records the number of kills, the last man standing is usually considered the winner. LieroX also allows team deathmatches, which has made it common for players to form clans.

Because of the huge community, there are dozens of levels and mods available. You also have no problem to find somebody on Internet to play with. Or if you want to play offline, you also can play with bots.]]> Mon, 17 Mar 2008 00:00:00 PST http://www.apple.com/downloads/macosx/unix_open_source/lbackup.html LBackup is a simple backup system, aimed at systems administrators who require reliable backups with minimum fuss.
