I want to compile a list of the currently available community sources applications found within Installer.app so that everyone downloading them has an idea for their functionality.
I myself do not know what many of the new 3rd party applications do so hopefully we can get a few people together to get a complete description list. If you know what these applications do, list them below and I will update the OP for everyone. Sorry, I dont have time right now to list the ones I know.
Here is the current application list so far:
Development
-Perl:
-Python:Python interpreter including supporting libraries
-Ruby: Ruby interpreter including supporting libraries.
Games
-Aquarium:Feed a fish with bubbles
-Frotz:Frotz is a Z-Machine emulator for the iPhone. Play all your favorite infocom games and more. Landscape mode is now supported as of 0.4. Place the Z-Code in /var/root/Media/Frotz/Games/
-iPhoneDoom:A native port of doom to the iPhone without support for controls or audio.

This version supports gestures and has color support. A pie menu has been added to aid with the gesture support.

-MobileTextEdit:A text editor for the iPhone. Part of the Mobile Studio suite http://code.google.com/p/mobilestudio/. Based off of Erica Sadun's editor. Currently MobileTextEdit opens a file supplied from the command line and will also save to the same file. MobileFinder is required for open functionality. http://code.google.com/p/mobilefinder/
-Tapp:Single tap command line execution. Place directives in /var/root/.tapp, or optionally edit them directly from the interface
