Xfig at a glance

Xfig

Xfig began in 1985 and accumulated decades of maintenance and export tooling, which made the .fig format a durable bridge between interactive diagram editing on Unix systems and downstream conversion to PostScript, PDF, and other outputs.

TOD at a glance

TOD

TOD appeared with JVC's HD-capable Everio camcorders around 2006 as the high-definition counterpart to the earlier MOD format, using MPEG-2 Transport Stream rather than Program Stream to accommodate HD bitrates.
