Inspired by recently finding the excellent Path Finder, I’ve posted a list of my must-have software packages.
What’s on your list?
Capsule, The Developer’s Code Journal
I’m very pleased today to announce the release of Capsule, the developer’s code journal. Capsule replaces the scratch document you have…
1) Tasks (but of course!)
2) Gentoo Linux
3) Apache [with mod_php]
4) FluxBox
5) XMMS
6) GKrellm2
7) wmdrawer [app launcher]
8) Googlizer [which i have also tweaked to open ANY url in the X clipboard]
9) Open Office
10) Evolution
Since you were probably expecting WIndoze-type sw, this is what I use when forced to use Windoze (and it’s all *free*ware):
MobyDock [freeware app launcher that has same mouseover effect as Mac OSX]
Blackbox for Windoze (bb4win) [replaces Explorer.exe as your 'window manager']
JSPager [creates multiple virtual desktops] (unfortunately its web page is MIA but I have the .zip file if anyone wants it)
Shell WM [lets you 'skin' all your windows]
Atomic TimeSync [makes it easy to use NTP to keep your clock correct]
WinPatrol [keeps a constant eye on your system: watches for viruses, adware, spyware, etc]
SSHD (using OpenSSH and Cygwin)
PuTTY [telnet/ssh client]
TightVNC [for remote desktop control]
and Gaim! how could i forget Gaim! (i use it on Linux and Windoze)
Great links, thanks!
