Desktop
The projects used for Desktop
 |
Xfce (Core)
Notes:
A good developer's desktop. Not as shiny as some of the others and sometimes feels like I've traveled back in time. That said, it is light, fast, stable... and doesn't get in my way. |
 |
GNU Emacs
Notes:
The original operating system in an editor! :-) It can do anything you want it to... and is the model that other editors take their new features from. |
 |
Linux Kernel
Notes:
Solid, mature, reliable... generally you don't have to remember that it is there! |
 |
Bash
Notes:
A good solid, feature-rich shell for interactive use. I try to avoid writing bash-specific scripts, though... they should be written in POSIX shell when possible! |
 |
Debian
Notes:
Debian testing is a great platform for an experienced developer's desktop. My Mum runs it too... ;-) |
 |
Mozilla Firefox
Notes:
I'm a long time user of Firefox (stability, features, plugins). When Firefox started using too much memory I looked at other options but decided to stick with Firefox. |
 |
Kupfer
Notes:
A convenient way of finding all manner of things (applications, hosts to SSH to, ...) from the keyboard. Works well with XFCE. |
