Cool Command Line Apps for GNU/Linux and other Unix Systems
Submitted by srlinuxx on Saturday 29th of November 2008 08:57:03 PM Filed under
internetling.com: Even though I am a strong advocate of learning as much as you can about using the command line, I admit I like my GUI a lot (and Compiz of course ).
