Ask HN: What are your CLI apps for daily use?
I am currently trying to switch to cli. I am faster and more concentrated.
So I want to know what are your cli apps for your daily work? MY

- Triv888 6y agoI also like irssi, but I would not use it without my config file. youtube-dl and python are also nice.
- ve55 6y agoI love a lot of CLI apps, although they can take a good deal of configuration and time to get used to until they're more efficient than alternatives. Some of my favorites for personal (non-server) use are zsh, tmux, irssi, youtube-dl, ranger, vim, mpd+ncpcpp, redshift, git, python, and all the usual core utils. Don't forget to use as many custom aliases, themes, and functions as possible if you're going to stick with it. I even use many one-character aliases for common things, e.g. 'p' for python.
- nathias 6y agoI use CLI for everything except browsing and drawing. I haven't updated my dotfiles in a while, but I have a list of a lot of CLI programs I use here: https://github.com/nath1as/.files https://github.com/nath1as/.files
