I would not call gvim obscure, but I always wonder why people do not recommend NEDIT for newbes on Linux.
I have xconsole running now, I have cron jobs that echo out stats to it every so often. It is a very nice and lite conky replacement.
And a few of these I still use, like xv, xload, xclock, xterm, xless, xmessage and xmahjongg. A few I never heard of.
It is too bad all these cool little tools will be gone for Linux once Wayland becomes a thing.
- Vilian 2y agoWhy would something like xmahjongg go away?
- jmclnx 2y agoBecause eventuality Xorg will be gone, so once that happens xmahjongg will not longer work. And to me, xmahjongg is the the best of these type games. Yes I know wayland as a X emulation, but that will probably be removed once wayland is fully adopted.
- mystified5016 2y agoThe way things are looking, we'll see full Wayland migration just after full IPv6 adoption. One day...
- arexxbifs 2y agoAFAIK, NEdit doesn't support Unicode.
- digdugdirk 2y agoThese would be incredibly light, resource wise. Is there a reason they can't be run on a compatability layer?
