This page includes information about both libre and non-libre software, rather than having it fragmented in a ton of separate pages across the wiki.

Libre Applications

See Annotation for a more in depth explanation about annotation software.

Jarnal - Java based PDF annotator

Okular - KDE Document viewer

Xournal - GTK+ inking application

GNURadio - "Provides signal processing blocks to implement software-defined radios and signal-processing systems."

Used by the Hume Center for research

LaTeX - Markup & typesetting system for producing high-quality documents

The Beamer is used to create slides/posters
See LaTeX#Example_LaTeX_documents for example documents

Mono - Cross platform .NET compiler and runtime

MonoDevelop GUI for Mono

Pygments - Source code pretty-printer that outpus to many formats

R - The programming language for statistics

SPIM - MIPS R2000 & R3000 simulator for educational purposes

VirtualBox - Virtualization software

LibVirt - API for manaing virtual machines under QEMU, KVM, or XEN

virt-manager is a GUI for libvirt

Xmonad - Haskell based windows manager

Ackthet's configuration

BlueJ - Simple Java IDE

Clang Complete - Popular Clang addon for vim

Screen - Popular terminal multiplexer

tmux - Popular terminal multiplexer

User .tmux.conf configs

Xoscope - Oscilloscope program

Xournal - Notetaking/Sketching/Journal App

Qucs - "Quite Universal Circuit Simulator"

QtOctave - GUI for Octave

Non-libre Applications

Software	License	WINE?	VM?	Native Linux?	Equivalent FOSS	Notes
MATLAB	Proprietary	Gold	Yes	Yes	QtOctave, FreeMat (stale?), Octave (console), Scilab (not syntax-compatible), Sage	Parallelize number crunching using the CVL
DyKnow	Proprietary	Garbage	Yes	No	Ubiquitous Presenter (Free for academic use), completely free version a work in progress	Contains malware.
LabView	Proprietary		Yes	Yes
Microsoft Visual C++	Proprietary	Garbage	Yes	No	GCC + GDB + Valgrind, KDevelop, eclipse-cdt
Microsoft Excel 2007	Proprietary	Gold	Yes	No	Gnumeric	Absolute values ( such as "1" or "0") can not be used for constraints. Multiple cell ranges can not be manipulated at once, making Gnumeric unusable for transshipment problems and goal programming. Cell ranges can only be compared to ranges of equal length and width in constraints. Nonlinear programming is not yet possible. Reports are dated in UTC.
PSpice	Proprietary	Silver	Yes	No	Qucs	You can probably replace the Tront PSpice book with the Qucs workbook.
Zeitnitz Soundcard Oscilloscope	?	Gold	?	No	xoscope
PCLab	Proprietary	Bronze?	Kind of	No	none, if you want to use this hardware	bwr is supposedly working on a linux driver so that this 'scope might also work with xoscope
LogicWorks	Proprietary	Gold	Yes	No	Qucs
MPLAB	??	Gold	Yes	Yes	Piklab
Xilinx tools (parts GPL'd)	??		Sometimes quirky	Yes		Use 9.x natively with libusb-driver.
WinCupl	Proprietary	Gold	Yes	No		Needs MFC40.dll: wget http://activex.microsoft.com/controls/vc/mfc40.cab cabextract mfc40.cab wine mfc40.exe
MS Visual C# + .NET	Proprietary	??	Yes	No	MonoDevelop + Mono
VMware products	Proprietary	No	...	Some	Virtualbox, QEMU	VMware's tools can generally be used to convert images between VMware and VirtualBox/QEMU formats.
Microsoft Project	Proprietary	Bronze	Yes	No	GNOME Planner	Planner lacks resource levelling or constraints
Autodesk Products	Proprietary	Garbage	Buggy	No		Success in Wine depends on the Autodesk product used and revisions of all software involved.
Microsoft Visio	Proprietary	Gold	Yes	No	Dia	Lots of add-ons for circuit shapes and logic for flowcharts
Microsoft Visual Studio	Proprietary	Garbage	Yes	No	gcc, eclipse-cdt	Compiling C++ in g++ is okay, but testing in a Visual Studio environment is recommended to make sure that the project will work correctly before turning it in.
Microsoft PowerPoint	Proprietary	?	Yes	No	LibreOffice Impress, Beamer	Some instructors may require PPTX files, but some may also accept PDF; your mileage will very depending upon your instructor.
Sibelius Scorch	Proprietary	?	Yes	No
Adobe Flash Player	Proprietary	?	Yes	Yes
Respondus LockDown Browser	Proprietary	No?	No	No		Integrates with Scholar, Canvas for testing; prevents access to other tabs, perhaps other apps (by blacklist), resists running in virtualized environments and some releases of Wine, must be run as administrator
DigiView	Proprietary	??	Yes	No		Integrates with Scholar, Canvas for testing; prevents access to other tabs, perhaps other apps (by blacklist), resists running in virtualized environments and some releases of Wine, must be run as administrator
