! mkpasswd
| generates passwords and can apply them automatically to users. 
|-valign="top"
! passmass
| changes a password on multiple machines. 
|-valign="top"
! rftp
| is much like '''ftp''' except it uses ~g and ~p instead of mget and mput. 
|-valign="top"
! rlogin-cwd
| is '''rlogin''' except it uses the local current directory as the current working directory on the remote machine. 
|-valign="top"
! timed-read
| reads a complete line from stdin and aborts after a given number of seconds. 
|-valign="top"
! timed-run
| runs a program for a given amount of time. 
|-valign="top"
! unbuffer
| disables the output buffering that occurs when program output is redirected. 
|-valign="top"
! weather
| retrieves a weather report (courtesy University of Michigan) for a given city or geographical area. 
|-valign="top"

| is a script that acts as a front-end for '''xpilot'''. 
|-valign="top"
! libexpect5.43.{so,a}
| contains functions that allow Expect to be used as a Tcl extension or to be used directly from C or C++ (without Tcl).
