A one-player side-view game in the style of Capcom's excellent "MegaMan" series of Nintendo, PlayStation and PC games. As "BoboBot," the `robo-monkey,' you travel to eight different levels fighting your way to the boss. Once defeated, you gain that boss' special weapon. This preview release contains 4 of the 8+ planned levels and has sound and joystick support for Linux users.
Boa Constructor is a cross-platform RAD GUI-building IDE. It offers visual frame creation and manipulation, an object inspector, a debugger, integrated help, and many views on the source, including inheritance hierarchies, object methods and properties, and HTML generated from documentation strings. It is written in Python and uses the wxPython toolkit which wraps wxWindows.
Boa is a single-tasking HTTP server. That means that unlike traditional Web servers, it does not fork for each incoming connection, nor does it fork many copies of itself to handle multiple connections. It internally multiplexes all of the ongoing HTTP connections, and forks only for CGI programs (which must be separate processes), automatic directory generation, and automatic file gunzipping. Tests show boa is capable of handling up to several hundred hits per second on a 100 Mhz Pentium, dozens of hits per second on a lowly 20 MHz 386/SX, and thousands on more powerful CPUs.
