ash: Kenneth Almquist's ash shell.
ash:
ash: A lightweight (62K) Bourne compatible shell. Great for machines with
ash: low memory, but does not provide all the extras of shells like bash,
ash: tcsh, and zsh. Runs most shell scripts compatible with the Bourne
ash: shell. Note that under Linux, most scripts seem to use at least some
ash: bash-specific syntax. The Slackware setup scripts are a notable
ash: exception, since ash is the shell used on the install disks. NetBSD
ash: uses ash as its /bin/sh.

bc: GNU bc 1.04 - An arbitrary precision calculator language.
bc:

ispell: ispell-3.1.20
ispell:
ispell: Ispell is a fast screen-oriented spelling checker that shows you your
ispell: errors in the context of the original file, and suggests possible

ispell: other than English. Ispell has a long history, and many people have
ispell: contributed to the current version -- some of the major contributors

jpeg6: Independent JPEG Group's JPEG software version 6a
jpeg6:
jpeg6: Software to implement JPEG image compression and decompression. JPEG
jpeg6: (pronounced 'jay-peg') is a standardized compression method for
jpeg6: full-color and gray-scale images. JPEG is intended for compressing
jpeg6: 'real-world' scenes; cartoons and other non-realistic images are not
jpeg6: its strong suit. JPEG is lossy, however, on typical images of
jpeg6: real-world scenes, very good compression levels can be obtained with
jpeg6: no visible change, and amazingly high compression levels are possible
jpeg6: if you can tolerate a low-quality image.

mt_st: mt-st-0.4 - controls magnetic tape drive operation
mt_st:
mt_st: This mt originates from BSD NET-2. Some Linux SCSI tape-specific
mt_st: ioctls have been added to the original source and the man page has
mt_st: been updated. Although this mt program is tailored for SCSI tape, it
mt_st: can also be used with the QIC-02 driver and hopefully with other Linux
mt_st: tape drivers using the same ioctls (some of the commands may not work
mt_st: with all drivers).

quota: Linux disk quota utilities (1.51)
quota:
quota: An implementation of the diskquota system for the Linux operating
quota: system -- keeps those greedy users from gobbling up 100% of the hard
quota: drive space. Should work for all filesystems because of integration
quota: into the VFS layer of the operating system. This system is a heavily
quota: modified version of the Melbourne quota system by Robert Elz, which
quota: uses both user and group quota files. Edvard Tuinder <ed@ow.org> and
quota: Marco van Wieringen <mvw@planets.ow.org> are responsible for the
quota: additional code and porting effort to make quotas work on Linux.
