Here I try to add links to applications that have some relationship to MKVToolNix -- e.g. programs that rely on or include mkvmerge itself. I haven't tested all of those myself, but you should given them a try anyway if they fit your needs.

• ANDREW: ANDREW's Not a DVD Ripping and Encoding Wizard, but an interactive wrapper or a BASH script to simplify the use of OggEnc, MEncoder and mkv/ogmmerge to create, from a DVD, one or more Matroska or Ogg Media files containing an ISO/IEC MPEG-4 Part 2 compliant video track, encoded using FFmpeg libavcodec or XviD codec, one or more AC-3 or Vorbis audio tracks, a chapter index and, optionally, one or more subtitle tracks.
• FPPdvdmkv: a tutorial and collection of scripts that create an MKV video container file from a DVD in a few passes
• iso2mkv: a versatile convertor from DVD to XviD/vorbis MKV on top of MPlayer/MEncoder
• mkvextract GUI: a GUI for mkvextract which makes extracting the contents of Matroska files much easier
• OGMRip: an application and a set of libraries for ripping and encoding DVD into AVI, OGM or Matroska files using a wide variety of codecs. It relies on mplayer, mencoder, ogmtools, oggenc and lame to perform its tasks. The GUI features a clean HIG-compliant GNOME 2 interface and tries to minimize as much as possible esoteric settings.
• Tuxrip: a Linux bash script for ripping and encoding DVD titles in mpeg4 format (DivX, XviD, FFmpeg libavcodec). It features per title or full DVD ripping, audio extraction and encoding, support for multi-audio tracks, 2-pass video compression for a given file size and quality, compressibility testing for optimal quality and resolution determination, support for codec options, audio/video synchronization, CD burning, and automatic computer shutdown. It uses OggVorbis for encoding audio and either FFmpeg libavcodec or XviD as video codecs. It can use Ogg or Matroska containers and supports subtitles in vobsub format. Subtitles are muxed in matroska container and are automatically compressed.

If you're the author of an application that is not listed here and think that it should or if you know such an application then please let me know and I'll include a link and a description.
