Bambam is a simple baby keyboard masher application that locks
the keyboard and mouse and instead displays bright colors,
pictures, and sounds.
Note: for safety it is recommended to run the game in a dedicated login
session, rather than as an application in your regular session, especially
when leaving your child unattended with the game. Look for session type BamBam
in your display manager login screen.

Dasher is an information-efficient text-entry interface, driven by natural
continuous pointing gestures. Dasher is a competitive text-entry system
wherever a full-size keyboard cannot be used - for example,
- on a palmtop computer
- on a wearable computer
- when operating a computer one-handed, by joystick, touchscreen, trackball,
or mouse
- when operating a computer with zero hands (i.e., by head-mouse or by
eyetracker).
The eyetracking version of Dasher allows an experienced user to write text
as fast as normal handwriting - 25 words per minute; using a mouse,
experienced users can write at 39 words per minute.
Dasher uses a more advanced prediction algorithm than the T9(tm) system
often used in mobile phones, making it sensitive to surrounding context.

This program displays the time and date of specified time zones using a
GTK+ interface. It also provides a "rendezvous" function allowing the zones
to be synchronised to a time other than the current time. This can help you
organise meetings across different timezones.
The time zones may be entered by hand in TZ format or chosen from a list
prepared from /usr/share/zoneinfo/zone.tab. The zone list is kept in a format
consistent with the shell script tzwatch.

Normally, xteddy just sits around doing nothing. After all, that's what
teddy bears are for. Look at him, talk to him, place heavy windows on
top of him, zap him around until he becomes dizzy, do what you like;
he will always be your true (albeit virtual) friend.
Now you can load other pixmaps than the nice teddy, too.
