Bash

Bash is an sh-compatible command language interpreter that executes commands read from the standard input or from a file. Bash also incorporates useful features from the Korn and C shells (ksh and csh). Bash is ultimately intended to be a conformant implementation of the IEEE POSIX Shell and Tools specification (IEEE Working Group 1003.2).

GNU grep

Grep searches one or more input files for lines containing a match to a specified pattern. By default, grep prints the matching lines.

GNU Core Utilities

The GNU Core Utilities are the basic file, shell and text manipulation utilities of the GNU Operating System. Specifically, this package includes: arch base64 basename cat chcon chgrp chmod chown chroot cksum comm cp csplit cut date dd df dir dircolors dirname du echo env expand expr factor ... [More] false flock fmt fold groups head hostid id install join link ln logname ls md5sum mkdir mkfifo mknod mktemp mv nice nl nohup nproc od paste pathchk pinky pr printenv printf ptx pwd readlink rm rmdir runcon sha*sum seq shred sleep sort split stat stty sum sync tac tail tee test timeout touch tr true truncate tsort tty uname unexpand uniq unlink users vdir wc who whoami yes [Less]

GNU Screen

Screen is a text console window manager that generates virtual terminals (PTYs) for interactive processes. A scrollback history buffer allows copy&paste, a detach feature saves your session for later reconnect.

GNU findutils

GNU findutils includes find, xargs, locate and updatedb. These tools proivide ways to search for files on your system by specifying what kind of file you're looking for.

GNU sed

Sed (streams editor) isn't really a true text editor or text processor. Instead, it is used to filter text, i.e., it takes text input and performs some operation (or set of operations) on it and outputs the modified text. Sed is typically used for extracting part of a file using pattern ... [More] matching or substituting multiple occurrences of a string within a file. [Less]

Cygwin

Cygwin is a Linux-like environment for Windows. It consists of an emulation DLL providing Linux API functionality, and ports of thousands of Linux tools to Windows.

zsh

Zsh is a UNIX command interpreter (shell) which of the standard shells most resembles the Korn shell (ksh). It includes enhancements of many types, notably in the command-line editor, options for customising its behaviour, filename globbing, features to make C-shell (csh) users feel more at home and extra features drawn from tcsh.

Gawk

The awk utility interprets a special-purpose programming language that makes it possible to handle simple data-reformatting jobs with just a few lines of code.

ack

ack is a tool like grep, aimed at programmers with large trees of heterogeneous source code. ack is written purely in Perl, and takes advantage of the power of Perl's regular expressions. * Searches recursively through directories by default, while ignoring .svn, CVS and other VCS ... [More] directories. * ack ignores most of the crap you don't want to search * Lets you specify file types to search, as in --perl or --nohtml. * Color highlighting of search results. * Uses real Perl regular expressions, not a GNU subset. * ack is pure Perl, so consistent across all platforms. It even comes as a single standalone program with no module dependencies. [Less]
