IDEs, UNIX, AND THE LEGACY WORKFLOW THAT NEVER WENT AWAY

Words of Wisdom are dispensed in the article

I have a workflow consisting of

• screen
• bash or one of
• csh
• ksh
• zsh
• vim or
• vim.motif
• function third(){ awk '{if (NR%3==0){print "\033[32m" $0 "\033[0m"} else{print}}'; }
• function psgrep() { ps axuf | grep -v grep | grep "$@" -i --color=auto; }
• function mkcd(){ [ ! -z "$1" ] && mkdir -p "$1" && cd "$_"; }
• gcc
• g++
• asm
• ln
• go from golang
• lsd
• ncdu

These choices are deliberate. I want and demand the fastest programming ENV: which follow the UNIX principle & KISS

quotes

tl;dr*

Unix already solved many IDE problems decades ago using small cooperating tools instead of one large application.

• bash
• coreutils
• less
• tmux
• nvialready form a complete and focused development environment for many Unix workflows.

The shell becomes the workspace, the terminal manages sessions, and the editor remains small and predictable

man sh(1)

man ls(1)

man coreutils(1)

man less(1)

man screen(1)

man tmux(1)

man vim(1)

#tersoftware de linha de comando

• #jq - formatação e bonitificação de texto em formato JSON
• #bat - um #cat com asas :)
• #ncdu - interface em ncurses pro #du, muito útil pra encontrar (e apagar) diretórios e arquivos gigantes no disco
• #ranger - navegador de arquivos com atalhos do vim
• #z - acessa pastas frequentemente utilizadas diretamente
• #fzf - backend de fuzzy search compatível com todos os sabores de shells e vim.
• #fd - um #find mais intuitivo
• #rg - um #grep mais intuitivo, com mais funcionalidades (e mais rápido)

Platzfresser unter Linux aufspüren – mit ncdu

Manchmal passiert's einfach: Du installierst einen neuen Proxmox-Host, alles läuft super – aber ein paar Monate später ist plötzlich die Root-Partition voll. Genau das ist mir wieder mal passiert. Und ja, ich geb's zu: Ich hab damals die Partition einfach etwas zu knapp bemessen. 🙈

Wenn die Root-Partition vollläuft, wird's s...

I concur
In all systems I build ncurses is installed by default.

ncdu it's a vital tool for me in my server management workflow in different orchestraters like Proxmox xen
