Some Linux Apps I Discovered Recently
I’ve been spending a lot more time on Linux as it’s been very helpful for my work: I put all kinds of test servers and tools there that I use during my java/.NET work. Because of this, I’ve been looking to improve my list of useful Linux applications, and I’ve found a few that I’ve liked well enough.
GNU Screen
Screen is a “terminal multiplexor” that allows you to have multiple windows inside an ANSI terminal or do split-screens and run separate programs on it.
I knew about it but always dismissed as I wasn’t exactly sure what benefit it would provide for my work. I run X most of the time and like gnome-terminal or konsole well enough and for many tasks, the tab support in those is more than enough.
After seeing a bunch of screen-related links in reddit, however, I decided there might be something there worth looking into after all, and decided to give it a try.
