Puppy Linux Discussion Forum

Hello,

I am looking for programs that use/run in the terminal. I have wordgrinder which is a nice word-processor. In need of finding more apps.

Would like to add them to the next Manna OS that will be coming out.

I am also using Sakrua Terminal which is very nice as well. Might replace Urxvt with this.

Thanks in advance for any help.

Maybe we can continue with this add links and a list to help people who are not use of the CLI interface so they would be able to be more comfortable on using it for simple commands and programs.

And later be able to do more like compiling which I am starting to do . Also programing too.

There is a lot of resources on the forum for the newbie to get started with and help for those who are not new, But never was comfortable with the CLI.

Here is a link to a thread that aragon did for cli commandshttp://murga-linux.com/puppy/viewtopic.php?t=46435

Cheers

Hello, old yeller.

A few years ago aragon issued a minimalist Puppy (based on v. 4.12, I think), that used mostly CLI apps. Maybe you can trace that. Or ask aragon himself through IM.

Also, about the same period, a distro called INX was published based on Ubuntu. Now, that one was based on the cli wm called Screen, and had nothing but cli programs. You could check the list of programs it offered, it might give you some ideas.

You may also want to peruse this:

Not used it for a while but Tmux is pretty cool - dvtm is also nice for a simple split pane terminal aswell.

Hello,

@666philb
Will have a look at these and see if I can use any.

@musher0

I think that I will IM aragon.

@stu91

Will take a look at these two as well.

If you're interested, I have a copy of Puppy OneBone, which IIRC is a CLI puplet. The version I have is marked 2.01, which is rather antique found it on a long-gone thread about older Puppies; I seem to recall that particular thread being around about a year or so ago, maybe longer.

FWIW, the specific ISO name is puppy-onebone-2.01-elinks.iso, and it's 27.9MB in size. Tiny little bugger!

If you want it I can put it up somewhere for download.
