An online MMO type thing. I was using Linux at the time, and so I suppose my options were limited.

was watir.com
A functional testing tool for automating browser-based tests of web applications. It drives the Internet Explorer browser the same way people do. It clicks links, fills in forms, presses buttons. It also checks results, such as whether expected text appears on the page.
I did some simple website testing with it.
- aka Web Application Testing in Ruby.
- Pronounced “water”.
- my Watir scripts
- Water 2.0 had support planned for Linux and Firefox using the “selenium” engine. 2019-09-29 – That engine appwars to have become https://www.selenium.dev/

A light window manager. Based on Blackbox. Not bad, but not as good as Blackbox. I liked Openbox more than this.
Blackbox has been obsoleted six ways from Sunday. See versus Blackbox.

A disk/volume management thing, with SoftRAID and more.
Required kernel patching and I never really did figure it out.
- Enterprise Volume Management System

LVM won out.

was vwmclient.rubyforge.org
A cross-platform native Ruby language GTK 2.x MU* (Telnet) client written by Mario Steele. It has been released under the LGPL license.
While not yet in a stable form, its goals will be to create a client:server model which allows for client-side processing of scriptlets.
- Abandoned. It seems to have just vanished.

EncFS provides an encrypted filesystem in user-space. It runs without any special permissions and uses the FUSE library module to provide the filesystem interface.
2016-12-28 – I have no memory of using this. Boy will it be awkward if I come across stuff encrypted with it.

A modem/BBS terminal program.
One of the top contenders. It is truly frightening, and still very useful today. However, they missed out on some basic functionality and got too complex. Telix and Telemate are two other contenders. Telix, well I don’t know why.. I still use Telemate to this day.. it kicks the pants out of terminate for most of the major simplicity and functionality. Too bad none of them are in development anymore. Hrmph.
- Competed with Telemate as a category-killer.

A lightweight web browser.
I thought it had hope but needed significant work.

2022-07-12 – Apparently abandoned
- The website is down
- the source code archive as of 202201280 shows the last activity at 2021-02-09. It was a small change and the update previous to that was 2018-10-05.
- The mailing list archive doesn’t tell me enough because it’s an old snapshot.
