Note:
- now builds against the new MPSAFE TTY layer
(and still builds against the old one)
- new product IDs added (0x7011 and 0x7501)
- hsoctl now forks into background after a successful connection
(use -d to disconnect, -n to get the old behavior)

popular open source revision control software. It can be used as both client
and server for repositories and provides granular access control over data
stored in the repository. It aims to be as compatible as possible with other
CVS implementations, except when particular features reduce the overall
security of the system.

intelligence?
A recent study published in PNAS, an important scientific journal,
shows that a particular memory task called Dual N-Back actually
improves working memory (short term memory) and fluid intelligence.
This finding is important because fluid intelligence was previously
thought to be unchangeable. The game involves remembering a sequence
of spoken letters and a sequence of positions of a square at the
same time.
In addition to its ability to closely replicate the conditions of
the original study by Jaeggi et al. (2008), Brain Workshop includes
optional extended game modes such as Triple N-Back and Arithmetic
N-Back. It also includes features such as statistics tracking,
graphs and easy configurability.

developing games and other visually-rich applications for Windows,
Mac OS X and Linux. Some of the features of pyglet are:
* No external dependencies or installation requirements. For most
application and game requirements, pyglet needs nothing else besides
Python, simplifying distribution and installation.
* Take advantage of multiple windows and multi-monitor desktops.
pyglet allows you to use as many windows as you need, and is fully
aware of multi-monitor setups for use with fullscreen games.
* Load images, sound, music and video in almost any format. pyglet
can optionally use AVbin to play back audio formats such as MP3,
OGG/Vorbis and WMA, and video formats such as DivX, MPEG-2, H.264,
WMV and Xvid.
pyglet is provided under the BSD open-source license, allowing you
to use it for both commerical and other open-source projects with
very little restriction.
