for a while, the big one was minivend (perl) which was absorbed by Redhat
and renamed Interchange. (I don't know what the status of it is now). It
has it's own markup syntax that wasn't too hard to use. I forget which
merchant system(s) it used. The only other one I see/recognize with any
regularity is called hazel.cgi, I'm not sure whose that is. I've seen PHP
stuff on freshmeat.net, but haven't installed any and don't know about the 
credit card backends.
