Privoxy 3.0.0

This is the first stable release of Privoxy.

Privoxy is a web proxy with advanced filtering capabilities for
protecting privacy, filtering web page content, managing cookies,
controlling access, and removing ads, banners, pop-ups and other
obnoxious Internet junk. Privoxy has a very flexible configuration
and can be customized to suit individual needs and tastes. Privoxy
has application for both stand-alone systems and multi-user
networks.

Privoxy is based on
Internet Junkbuster ™.

At present, Privoxy is known to
run on Windows(95, 98, ME, 2000, XP), Linux (RedHat, SuSE, Debian,
Conectiva, Gentoo), Mac OSX, OS/2, AmigaOS, BeOS, FreeBSD, NetBSD,
Solaris, and many more flavors of Unix.

In addition to the traditional features of Internet Junkbuster, such as ad and banner
blocking, cookie management/protection, and HTTP header
manipulation, Privoxy adds many
enhancements, and new features in the same vein.

  • Integrated browser based configuration and control utility at
    http://config.privoxy.org/ (shortcut: http://p.p/). Browser-based tracing
    of rule and filter effects. Remote toggling.

  • Web page content filtering (removes banners based on size,
    invisible “web-bugs”, JavaScript and
    HTML annoyances, pop-up windows, etc.)

  • Modularized configuration that allows for standard settings and
    user settings to reside in separate files, so that installing
    updated actions files won’t overwrite individual user settings.

  • HTTP/1.1 compliant (but not all optional 1.1 features are
    supported).

  • Support for Perl Compatible Regular Expressions in the
    configuration files, and generally a more sophisticated and
    flexible configuration syntax over previous versions.

  • Improved cookie management features (e.g. session based
    cookies).

  • GIF de-animation.

  • Bypass many click-tracking scripts (avoids script
    redirection).

  • Multi-threaded (POSIX and native threads).

  • User-customizable HTML templates for all proxy-generated pages
    (e.g. “blocked” page).

  • Auto-detection and re-reading of config file changes.

  • Improved signal handling, and a true daemon mode (Unix).

  • Every feature now controllable on a per-site or per-location
    basis, configuration more powerful and versatile over-all.

  • Many smaller new features added, limitations and bugs removed,
    and security holes fixed.

Latexss

[ Thanks to Diego
Restrepo
for this link. ]

Latexss is a
program that can transform a text file with very minimal
style syntax into a self-contained LaTeX spreadsheet powered
by the fp package. A graphical front-end for the command
line program, Klatexss,
is provided to generate both the text or LaTeX file (with
symbolic functions) as the dvi or postscript files with
evaluated functions.

The definitions in the LaTeX spreadsheet can be further used
to produce graphics through the pstricks LaTeX package.
