Source-reported description

The fullest retained description is shown with its source. Distribution packaging descriptions may include downstream details.

Dasher is an information-efficient text-entry interface, driven by natural continuous pointing gestures. Dasher is a competitive text-entry system wherever a full-size keyboard cannot be used, e.g. when operating a computer one-handed, by joystick, touchscreen, trackball, or mouse, when operating a computer without hands (i.e. by head-mouse or by eyetracker), or on palmtops or wearable computers.

Packages by operating system

Compare recorded versions, then open a package for dependency, file, checksum, and repository evidence. Version strings are distribution-specific, not a ranking of newer software.

Mapping provenance

Only source-backed identity signals create public cross-OS links. A reviewer can later approve or dispute an inferred relationship without rewriting native package history.

No field-level source record is published yet.
