List your favourite CLI programs.
Even though I'm in GNOME most of the time, I still use irssi, and MOC, nano. I've started to use grep a lot more than I have been. For the longest time, I could never use the darn thing, but, I guess as time serves you get accustomed to what is used. I also use Find, and Locate.
That's pretty much it, or at least all I can think of right now.

Nice, a lot of Arch users around. /wave0

Looking at my recent command history, I use cd, ls, df, ceni, clear, ps, top, htop, rm, sux, sudo, mv, apt-get, and more frequently, and lately, since I've been doing some simple editing, often of the clipboard or just a few minor changes variety, I've been using the small, fast GUI editor Leafpad. I use both Vim and GNU Emacs when I am doing involved work, depending on the nature of that work.0

my favorite commands are:
emacs
grep
apt-get
find
chmod
chown
service
cd
cd /etc
ls
and many more :laugh:0 -

There's a minor problem in the command line, position 596 we have "--new-l" instead off "--new -l".
But when it plays, it's real cool:p
