Unison is a file-synchronization tool for POSIX-compliant systems (e.g. *BSD, GNU/Linux, macOS) and Windows. It allows two replicas of a collection of files and directories to be stored on different hosts (or different disks on the same host), modified separately, and then brought up to date by propagating the changes in each replica to the other.
Unison has been in use for over 20 years and many people use it to synchronize data they care about.
Features:
Unison works across platforms, allowing you to synchronize a Windows laptop with a Unix server, for example.
Unlike simple mirroring or backup utilities, Unison can deal with updates to both replicas of a distributed directory structure. Updates that do not conflict can be propagated automatically. Conflicting updates are detected and displayed.
Unlike many network filesystems, Unison copies data so that already-synchronized data can be read and written while offline.
Unlike most distributed filesystems, Unison is a user-level program that simply uses normal systems calls: there is no need to modify the kernel, to have superuser privileges on either host, or to have a FUSE implementation.
Unison works between any pair of machines connected to the internet, typically communicating over ssh, but also directly over TCP. It is careful with network bandwidth, and runs well over slow links. Transfers of small updates to large files are optimized using a compression protocol similar to rsync.
minor feature: Released 2024-02-19
* Improved and simplified makefiles. Please review your build scripts for changed build goals, input variables and build artifact names. See INSTALL.md for details.
* opam build uses the makefile build system.
* Various fixes in Windows and Cygwin builds.
* Preferences "force", "prefer" and related "partial" preferences now work slightly differently with values "newer" and "older". Previously, if mtimes in both replicas were equal then always the second root propagated to the first root (possibly reverting user changes). It is now made explicit that "newer" and "older" only work when mtimes are different.
* Cleanups in documentation.
* Bugfixes, minor improvements, cleanups.

Gambas is an IDE and BASIC interpreter with object-oriented extensions.
It's designed to ease building graphical applications programs using
Gtk+ or Qt, and runs on most Unix and Linux systems. With its runtime
standalone applications can be packaged, even command-line programs.
The Gambas3 JIT-compiling interpreter often executes faster than Perl
or Python apps.
It also supports SDL, OpenGL and OpenAL, MySQL or PostgreSQL databases,
CGI webserver interfacing,

Offering a complete set of UI elements, GTK is suitable for projects ranging from small one-off tools to complete application suites.
Work with the language of your choice. Develop your GTK app with your language of choice by using Language Bindings or wrappers and take full advantage of the official GNOME bindings which guarantee API stability and time-based releases.
Portability. Projects built using GTK and its dependencies run on well known operating systems.
Stability. GTK delivers the enticing features and superb performance which adds to your applications.
Language Bindings. GTK is written in C but has been designed to support a wide range of languages such as Python, JavaScript, C++, Rust and many more.
Interfaces. GTK has a comprehensive collection of core widgets like Buttons, Windows, Toolbars for use in your application.
Open Source. GTK is a free and open-source project maintained by GNOME and an active community of contributors. GTK is released under the terms of the GNU Lesser General Public License.
API. GTK boasts of an easy to use API which helps in decreasing your development time and help you achieve better results.
Accommodation. GTK caters to many features like Native look and feel, theme support, Object-oriented approach that todayās developers look for in a toolkit.
Foundations. GTK is built on top of GLib. GLib provides the fundamental data types and system integration points to avoid duplicated code in applications.
