Sharity |

3432x |
Sharity Connects You to Windows File Servers
Sharity is a client for the CIFS (Common Internet File System) protocol, formerly known as SMB (Server Message Block). This is the file-sharing protocol used by Windows, OS/2, Samba and many others. Sharity mounts these servers in your file system. Mounting means that you can open files directly from the server with any application you like, as if they were on a local disk. Other clients (such as smbclient from the Samba suite) provide only an ftp-like interface where you can copy files to and from the share but cannot open them directly on the server.

retty |
http://pasky.or.cz/[..]ky/dev/retty/ |
3382x |
retty allows users to attach to input/output of processes running on another terminal, and after doing planned work, return program back onto the original one. This can be used for example when you run some application locally, then go somewhere out and suddenly you want to remotely use this already running application (read the e-mails, continue with editing file, ...). Unlike screen, you don't have to do any preparations, you just run retty on the running process.
