ImageMagick-5.3.6_2
Information for ImageMagick-5.3.6_2:
Description:
ImageMagick is a package for display and interactive manipulation of
images. The package includes tools for image conversion, annotation,
compositing, animation, and creating montages. ImageMagick can read and
write many of the more popular image formats (e.g. JPEG, TIFF, PNM, XPM,
Photo CD, etc.).
The package can be built _without_ the GUI (X11) support at all -- it
will not have the display, import, and animate functionality, but remain
extremely useful for image manipulation.
The optional "display" utility conflicts with the utility of the
same name from the misc/display port/package.

Postilion is a mail client with the NeXt look so should be of interest

has some improvements in addition to the interface change.
Postilion uses virtual folders to map to your real mail hierarchy. This
can be a one-to-one or many-to-one mapping. Postilion has a couple
of features that are useful for mail archiving. One is "dynamic"
folders which will automatically store mail based on things such as
sender address or date. Another feature is the database. Mail can
be archived into a database which is handy for storage as well as
searching. Multiple virtual folders of type "database" can be setup with
different attributes. Any messages subsequently moved to these virtual
folders will be entered into the database with the attributes that were
specified for the respective folder. This can also be done on-the-fly
through a dialog box.

py-pmw-0.8.5
Information for py-pmw-0.8.5:
Description:
Pmw is a framework for building high-level compound widgets, or
megawidgets, constructed using other widgets as component parts. It
promotes consistent look and feel within and between graphical
applications, is highly configurable to your needs and is easy to use.
Pmw consists of:
* A few base classes, providing a framework for building megawidgets.
* A library of flexible and extensible megawidgets built on the base
classes, such as ButtonBox, ComboBox, MessageDialog, etc.
The interface to Pmw megawidgets is similar to basic Tk widgets, so it
is easy for developers to include both megawidgets and basic Tk
widgets in their graphical applications. In addition, all Pmw
megawidgets may themselves be extended, using either inheritance or
composition.
The use of the Pmw framework and megawidgets replaces common widget
combinations with higher level abstractions. This simplifies code,
making it more readable and maintainable and more easily modifiable.
The ability to extend Pmw megawidgets enables developers to create new
megawidgets based on previous work.
