Group : System Environment/Daemons Requires : /sbin/chkconfig Description : The bootparamd process provides bootparamd, a server process which provides the information needed by diskless clients in order for them to successfully boot. Bootparamd looks first in /etc/bootparams for an entry for that particular client; if a local bootparams file doesn't exist, it looks at the appropriate Network Information Service (NIS) map. Some network boot loaders (notably Sun's) rely on special boot server code on the server, in addition to the rarp and tftp servers. This bootparamd server process is compatible with SunOS bootparam clients and servers which need that boot server code.

Although they are still supported, most users use their shell's MAIL variable (or csh shell's mail variable) to check for mail, or a dedicated application like xbiff or xmailbox. If the comsat service is not enabled, biff won't work and you'll need to use either the MAIL or mail variable. You may want to install biff if you'd like to be notified when mail arrives. However, you should probably check out the more modern methodologies of mail notification (xbiff or xmailbox) instead. ======================================== Name : cook Version : 2.11 Size : 3799330 bytes Summary : a file construction tool Group : Development/Tools Requires : ld.so.1 Description : Cook is a tool for constructing files. It is given a set of files to create, and recipes of how to create them. In any non-trivial program there will be prerequisites to performing the actions necessary to creating any file, such as include files. The cook program provides a mechanism to define these. When a program is being developed or maintained, the programmer will typically change one file of several which comprise the program. Cook examines the last-modified times of the files to see when the prerequisites of a file have changed, implying that the file needs to be recreated as it is logically out of date. Cook also provides a facility for implicit recipes, allowing users to specify how to form a file with a given suffix from a file with a different suffix. For example, to create filename.o from filename.c * Cook is a replacement for the traditional make(1) tool. However, it is necessary to convert makefiles into cookbooks using the make2cook utility included in the distribution. * Cook has a simple but powerful string-based description language with many built-in functions. This allows sophisticated filename specification and manipulation without loss of readability or performance. * Cook is able to use fingerprints to supplement file modification times. This allows build optimization without contorted rules. * Cook is able to build your project with multiple parallel threads, with support for rules which must be single threaded. It is possible to distribute parallel builds over your LAN, allowing you to turn your network into a virtual parallel build engine. If you are putting together a source-code distribution and planning to write a makefile, consider writing a cookbook instead. Although Cook takes a day or two to learn, it is much more powerful and a bit more intuitave than the traditional make(1) tool. And Cook doesn't interpret tab differently to 8 space characters! ======================================== Name : cook-dvidocs Version : 2.11 Size : 550096 bytes Summary : Cook documentation, DVI format Group : Documentation Requires : (none) Description : Cook documentation in DVI format. ======================================== Name : cook-psdocs Version : 2.11 Size : 648179 bytes Summary : Cook documentation, PostScript format Group : Documentation Requires : (none) Description : Cook documentation in PostScript format. ======================================== Name : cryst Version : 0.12 Size : 3789308 bytes Summary : A 6DOF 3D game engine.
