Mice! It's the Mice, I tell you!

Ooh... So windy, what panel extensions do you have there? I only added the CPU/Memory/Swap monitors, but I see you have quite a few there.

Might as well add this to the topic: (Open question to everyone (but esp. Linux users ))

What applications do you use for:

1. Web Browsing
2. E-mail
3. Word Processing
4. Small/Lite Editor
5. Programming
6. Music
7. File Manager
8. Terminal/Console

For me, it's:

1. Firefox 1.0.4
2. Thunderbird 1.0.2
3. OpenOffice.org Writer 1.1.3
4. Small/Lite Editor - KWrite 4.2.1 (The lighter version of KAte)
5. Programming - KWrite 4.2.1 (Syntax colouring and very customizable - who needs anything more?)
6. Music - XMMS (The WinAmp of Linux)
7. File Manager - xffm (Default XFCE file manager - I dislike Nautilus and Konqueror is KDE-dependant and therefore slightly memory-hoggish) (Anyway, look at http://www.howtocreate.co.uk/browserSpeed.html#linspeed - Sloooww startup)
8. Terminal/Console - Terminal, sometimes xfterm

[The Beatles]

1. Firefox, elinks
2. Firefox (gmail), pine
3. AbiWord
4. pico, very occasionally gedit
5. pico, Eclipse
6. zina+mpg123 (ask windy), rhythmbox, xmms
7. The Shell: bash, cd, ls, mv, cp, rm, df, du, cat, tar, awk, sed, find, grep, gzip, bzip2, which, locate, ...
8. Terminal, xterm

Mine Mine... That's really cool with the print screen thing... I never knew I could do that.



p.s. Did you actually pay for LimeWire Pro Japan? You could just download LimeWirePro on LimeWire (Free)... Not that I did that or anything...

:*laughs*: (I'm kidding, in case you didn't notice.)

One thing I simply cannot understand - why do so many people like Emacs and VI/VIM? I find them rather cumbersome to use - http://www.indiana.edu/~ucspubs/z-icons/b103-01.gif (Pico) at least looks simple enough to use.

[Corban]

1. IE and Firefox
2. Gmail, sometimes Yahoo or My own server.
3. Microsoft word
4. Small/Lite Editor (None?)
5. Notepad I guess... I don't know... (This is if HTML, Javascript, etc counts...)
6. Itunes, Real Media Player, Quicktime, DIVX, and Windows Media Player.
7. File Manager (Whats this?) (Default for XP Professional?)
8. Terminal/Console (Whats this?)

Hmmm... Why do I feel so dumb not knowing what half the things are . (Should I have even filled this out since I'm using XP Pro and not Linux?)

[ohmyjapan16]

Yea I donloaded Limewire Pro off Limewire. Silly people. I'll fill that thing out later. I'm at school right now. Me no gets in trouble.

I didn't quite catch that... I mean the last bit. ft ue?

:*laughs*: (I'm kidding, in case you didn't notice.)

So I'm not leet? :*laughs*:

Seriously though, whatever gets the job done the fastest. I used the UNIX shell for 2 years before even touching a Linux GUI, so I'm pretty used to it. And it gets the job done for me much faster than a GUI file manager. Plus it's a rudimentary programming language.


[edit] Pico is wonderful, although sometimes I consider that they might add an option for it to interface with the mouse, like links does (only for copy-pasting in X). True, nano does this, but nano's rendering is shaky -- sometimes it leaves old text where it shouldn't when I scroll down. It might be the terminal emulator's fault, but pico works in those conditions and nano doesn't. So I stick with pico generally. (Nano is a pico clone under the GPL: pico is open-source but not free to modify or something like that. Heck, the GPL was likely not around when it was written.) But I need the mouse so very rarely that this doesn't bother me.

Hey Beatles, where's you snapshot?

[The Beatles]

I posted one a few months back.
