And the databases are encrypted using the best and most secure encryption algorithms currently known, AES and Twofish. See our features page for details.

    TurboVNC

    TurboVNC

    High-speed, 3D-friendly, TightVNC-compatible remote desktop software

    TurboVNC is a high-performance, enterprise-quality version of VNC based on TightVNC, TigerVNC, and X.org. It contains a variant of Tight encoding that is tuned for maximum performance and compression with 3D applications (VirtualGL), video, and other image-intensive workloads. TurboVNC, in combination with VirtualGL, provides a complete solution for remotely displaying 3D applications with interactive performance. TurboVNC's high-speed encoding methods have been adopted by TigerVNC and libvncserver, and TurboVNC is also compatible with any other TightVNC derivative. TurboVNC forked from TightVNC in 2004 and still covers all of the TightVNC 1.3.x features, but TurboVNC contains numerous feature enhancements and bug fixes relative to TightVNC, and it compresses 3D and video workloads much better than TightVNC while using generally only 5-20% of the CPU time of the latter. Using non-default settings, TurboVNC can also be made to compress 2D workloads as "tightly" as TightVNC.

    Notepad++ Plugin Manager

    Notepad++ Plugin Manager

    The nppPluginManager repository contains the legacy Plugin Manager for Notepad++, a tool that once allowed users to easily install, update, and remove plugins within the editor. It relied on a centrally hosted XML file that listed available plugins, which the manager compared against those already installed. Since 2019, however, the plugin is no longer actively maintained, and the supporting web service that provided plugin lists has been discontinued. Users are now encouraged to rely on Notepad++’s built-in plugin solution instead of this deprecated tool. This project is the old location for the plugin list for Notepad++ Plugin Manager. Please use https://github.com/bruderstein/npppluginmanager for any issues and current code
