And ToDoList is the best lightweight, local list/project manager I've come across. I've read that it runs fine under Wine, and it writes to a usable XML format.
I've got a little windows utility called "open". If I'm in a dos box and want to open a windows explorer instance in the current directory, I just type "open .". It globs too, so if I'd like to view all the pdf files in the current directory, I can "open *.pdf". I use it all the time. NTP has been ported to windows, and I run it on all my machines. rsync, of course. NSIS for building install programs. Maybe there's s…
The cmd builtin 'start' will do much of that, but not for globs. Under cygwin, I'd do this for an equivalent to what you describe as 'open': #!/bin/bash for f; do cygstart "$f" done cygstart is much the same as cmd start, except it understands Cygwin paths.
WTF
LOL
"I can’t imagine working on a computer without Total Commander. [...] . Total Commander is what separates boys from men." Every other pieces of software on the list is optional for me, except Total Commander. It's the only software I ever miss when not on windows (and fortunately I'm rarely on windows anymore these days). I have found nothing that comes even close to it on linux/macos.
On Windows, my tasks generally involve using Visual Studio for editing files and Remote Desktop for deployment. On Linux, I think a lot more before I type out that one liner. So, what value does Total Commander provide? I'm always interested in being more efficient.
