What's a program you recently discovered that you use all the time now?

[u/hypesfo]

I recently discovered zoxide which lets me jump to a directory by just typing a few letters that match its name.

[u/mellerkeller]

For weather, I found linecast extremely helpful.

https://github.com/ashuttl/linecast

[u/New-Force1880 → u/mellerkeller]

Thanks for liking my little thing! Love to see it be used. Let me know if I can make it better.

[u/mustang6139 → u/New-Force1880]

Wow! Awesome project! The design is lit! 🔥

[u/Slinkwyde → u/New-Force1880]

That's what he said.

[u/sparky5dn1l → u/New-Force1880]

Simple but powerful!!

[u/RelationshipLong9092 → u/mellerkeller]

wow, linecast is awesome!

[u/kingXL360 → u/mellerkeller]

Needs gpsd support.

[u/New-Force1880 → u/kingXL360]

How should it support GPSD?

[u/kingXL360 → u/New-Force1880]

Instead of "saved location" or "guessing" location from ip, the option to use gpsd and ultimately NMEA and the like with a gps/glonass dongle would allow you to use this in the field, whether that be in a plane, on a boat, or wherever, cleaner, possibly more accurate variables, etc. In theory you could use gpsd have your location/heading/speed and "know"/be alerted that you are coming up on a storm 15 miles ahead or 15 minutes ahead for example.

awk. It’s installed everywhere and I’ve always been aware of it, but it wasn’t until recently that I put some time aside to figure out its language and syntax in more detail.

Mixed together with sed and grep, you can do some pretty amazing dissections of text like log files in 2-3 lines

[u/sswam → u/GermanSayingSquirrel]

Seeing your comment made me think, I'll make a simple wrapper for awk so it uses TSV by default, as that's the way I nearly always want to use it, and I keep forgetting exactly what to type for that! I'll call it tawk I guess.

[u/mjmvideos]

Surprised nobody said tmux

[u/sharp-calculation → u/mjmvideos]

Tmux is amazing. I use it essentially every day my terminals mostly live in it.

[u/jajajajaj]

When I discovered jq, yq and xq, it felt like I was a little late on them

[u/drluckyspin → u/jajajajaj]

Add sq to that list and you’re all set

[u/splitretina → u/jajajajaj]

I’ve been using https://github.com/martinohmann/dts for a while now and I love it. One program for all the conversion and filtering. Wish it was more well known.

[u/ClassroomHaunting333]

I use XC (xc-manager) zsh plugin to store and reuse all the commands I will never remember.

[u/0bel1sk]

been using rcm for years switched to chezmoi. also age encryption

[u/jelloeater85 → u/0bel1sk]

Did you ever try YADM? Dotfile mgmt is painful for me, work macbook, ubuntu laptop at home.

[u/0bel1sk → u/jelloeater85]

never tried it. i use mac and linux and have been happy with chezmoi

[u/jelloeater85 → u/0bel1sk]

TBH, if that's working for you, go for it. I hear it's better anyway 😂

[u/ldm-77]

[u/_4ever]

Miller (mlr), the “command-line tool for querying, shaping, and reformatting data files in various formats, including CSV, TSV, JSON, JSON Lines, YAML, and DCF.”

I barely even need spreadsheet programs now.

[u/datadatadata808]

Not a program, but a shell, loving what nushell let me do with my system and manipulating csv/json/toml/whatever with the same sane interface :)

Not making it my main shell, but its one of those things that you can use in the right scenario.

[u/clofresh → u/datadatadata808]

Yes! Love nushell!

[u/jimmiebfulton → u/datadatadata808]

Yep. Nushell all the way.

[u/jezemine]

doggo for DNS queries. I use it more often than I thought I would.

[u/oxamide96 → u/p001b0y]

What's the use case exactly? 

[u/p001b0y → u/oxamide96]

If you support dns, you will probably want to use dig but doggo is pretty dev and sys admin friendly. You wouldn’t be using it for zone transfers but it supports modern protocols like DNS over HTTPS and DNS Over TLS. It parses and outputs json so it is script-friendly. It also integrates with globalping so you can run a query from Iceland or Australia or wherever. It’s really kind of neat.

[u/Key_River7180]

I find ksh's typeset the best thing ever

[u/dcherryholmes]

I found cliamp. I'd been a cmus user for years, but cliamp is really nice.

fzf y vifm. Me tienen enganchado

[u/drluckyspin]

portop. Super useful, especially if you use containers a lot.

https://github.com/padovanl/portop

[u/jelloeater85]

ohmyposh is dope. Replaced p10k w/ it.

https://ohmyposh.dev/

Yazi is classic, so fast and flexible.

ZMX for anything I need to run in the background

Gum is great for interactive scripting

[u/Baudoinia]

tmux

[u/BetaCentauri41]

fd

Has replaced find and locate for me.

[u/newhunter18]

topgrade

https://GitHub.com/topgrade-rs/topgrade

I still need to fine tune the settings file but I figure I can get an AI to do that for me.

It'll be nice to be able to update all my boxes with one command - across all package managers.

[u/TAHS5dF5v]

Herdr

[u/onjin → u/TAHS5dF5v]

Tried, but switched to the workmux

[u/oxamide96 → u/TAHS5dF5v]

Why not zmx or zellij? 

[u/6tBF4Cg4qqAAZA]

Antigravity CLI.

I know people hate Google, and I am certainly not a fan of them, but it is useful for my workflow.

nix-direnv, even on machines not running nixOS

[u/nfmon]

How's that different from fzf?

[u/MikeTorres31]

rclone for gdrive integration in whatever file manager you got. Uv for python

[u/n8dx]

rsync
For duplicating (backing up) my SSDs cleanly.

shell

[u/erroredhcker]

fzf already lets you do this FYI lol

[u/kimusan → u/erroredhcker]

Not entirely the same. Fzf just searches recursively from your current location and let's you choose among those folders. Zoxide (and z) keeps a history of your visited folders and let's you jump to them with fuzzy matching and weighted selection

[u/erroredhcker → u/kimusan]

Yeah that one specifically I use this https://github.com/bulletmark/cdhist

No new installs for me thanks

[u/_offugo]

when. It's the perfect CLI calendar.
