Web-absence is a CGI application designed to help keep track of people in a group. It is intended to do one thing: allow the user to display the plans of all people in a group in a way that makes it easy to see who's present and who's absent. It is not intended for anything else. The resolution is one day.
You may remember a Tcl (yuck) application with a similar name from some years ago...
It could easily be adapted do handle reservations for any set of objects, as long as a resolution of a day is acceptable.
An example of a possible use is reserving machines/computers in a laboratory.
Web-absence is based on four Perl CGI-scripts that rely on seven back-end Perl modules written specifically for web-absence. For each month, an image (by default, PNG) is generated. Absences are created, edited, and deleted by clicking on the month-image.
Absence can be configured to use one of two modes to handle absence manipulations, server-side or client-side image maps.

CGI-Shell provides a shell using CGI, so everyone who has a CGI directory on a Web server can also have a shell on it. It's comparable to telnet or SSH.

Developed for writing browser-based applications and database-driven catalogues or presentations that reside on CDROM or DVD, internally implemented as Perl-driven or PHP-driven Web sites that store data in a database also located on CDROM. It produces a single CD that works on Windows, Mac OS X, and Linux/x86, without requiring any additional software on the user's computer. All an author needs to do to build a cross-platform browser-based application or CDROM is to copy scripts to their proper directories. HTML::Mason and mod_perl-like execution modes are supported for Perl-driven Web sites. *Changes:* A Web site can be automatically opened in MSIE in kiosk mode on Windows upon startup of the Web server. Support for PHP on Mac OS X has been fixed. Support for using the default browser on Windows has been fixed.

Treesed -- Freeware
Treesed, a Perl program, is a search/replace tool for lists of files. It can
search for patterns in a list of files, or even a tree of directories with
files.
Usage:
treesed pattern1 <pattern2> -files <file1 file2 ...>
treesed pattern1 <pattern2> -tree
Treesed searches for pattern1. If pattern2 is supplied pattern1 is replaced by pattern2. If pattern2 is not supplied treesed just searches. A list of files can be supplied with the -files parameter. Treesed is also capable of search/replace in files in subdirectories if you supply the -tree parameter. All files in the current directory and subdirectories are processed. Always a backup is made of the original file, with a random numeric suffix.
tree.pl creates a sitemap for all kinds of files (e.g., HTML and image files). It follows the directory structure on disk, creating a nested HTML list that contains the files' names or (in case of HTML) their titles, their last modified date, and their size. tree.pl can be used as a normal commandline application or as a CGI script.

| Dead Link Check
(DLC) is a Perl script designed to find information on validity of HTTP
references. The script may use/generate a cache file for avoiding redoing
network requests if the user want to check added entries. The script works
by reading entries from a file (or a list of links from the command line)
and output results in file(s) (or STDOUT). DLC was created as an extension
to Public Bookmark Generator (PBM), but can be used by itself.
