Wonderworks is a place where wonderful people are worked until they die of exhaustion. The result of their toil is software. Here's a list of software and software projects the thralls are involved with.

VM

VM is a mail reader that runs under XEmacs and GNU Emacs. It was written as an alternative to the Emacs RMAIL mail reader. VM is highly configurable and easy to use. It supports POP and IMAP for mail retrieval, understands MIME, and reads both the standard UNIX mailbox format and the BABYL format used by the RMAIL mailer.

XEmacs

XEmacs is a version of Emacs that is largely compatible with GNU Emacs, but sports more GUI features. Read more about XEmacs at its web site.

filladapt

Filladapt enhances the behavior of Emacs' fill functions by guessing the proper fill prefix in many contexts. Emacs has a built-in adaptive fill mode but Filladapt is much better. The latest version of Filladapt is 2.12.

crypt++

Crypt++ is a pair of minor modes that support automatic encoding and decoding of files, when files are visited and saved under Emacs. The usual encodings are various compression and encryption methods. Kyle Jones wrote the original version of crypt++ in 1988 (then named "crypt"), and it was subsequently modified heavily by Lawrence Dodd and Rod Whitby. The current maintainer is Karl Berry. The latest version of crypt++ is 2.92.

mapreplace

Mapping replace commands are like the traditional search and replace commands in Emacs, except they allow the replacement string to be taken sequentially from a series of replacements.

blinking-cursor

The blinking-cursor package implements a blinking cursor under GNU Emacs. This package is not for XEmacs; XEmacs has its own cursor blinking package.

c-comment-edit

The C Comment Edit package lets you edit C comments in Emacs' Text mode, which is more suited to editing free form text than C mode. When you finish editing the comment, the comment editing mode formats, indents and inserts the comment back into the C code buffer. The latest version of C Comment Edit is 1.02.

setnu

Setnu is a mode that displays line numbers in Emacs buffers, much as the "set nu" command does under VI, hence the name. Setnu works under XEmacs and GNU Emacs. This package is best used on files with a few thousand lines at most, unless you have very fast hardware and are willing to waste it recalculating and redisplaying line numbers. The latest version of setnu is 1.06.

redo

Redo enhances XEmacs' undo system by allowing the user to redo changes that have been undone without extending the undo list. So you could undo four changes, redo one of them, then decide that you wanted to undo that change after all and undo two more after that, and do it all as if you were rewinding and fast forwarding a tape. Using the usual undo system, it would be more like editing a tape, recording the edit session and then editing the recoding of the edit. The redo package was written for XEmacs, but is reported to work under GNU Emacs as well. The author intends to only maintain it for XEmacs. The latest version of redo is 1.02.

floating-toolbar

Floating Toolbar lets a XEmacs programmer or user set up a detached toolbar that appears under mouse pointer with mouse button 3 is clicked. This package is not for GNU Emacs. The latest version of floating-toolbar is 1.03.
