While not a linux-specific tool, Tree is amazing when finding searching through and cd-ing into directories. Also, just using linux has (partially) forced me to learn the CLI which is even more powerful than I thought. For context, I almost exclusively used GUIs over CLI for everything, but now I balance the two.

I think this is a great feature, but I'm still not switching back to windows

Ugh, I'm always suspicious of Microsoft (the company, not it's developers) doing anything with celebrating open source and linux. Remember the Halloween documents: Embrace, Extend, Extinguish

If they wanted to market to Linux users, they would make apps for Linux, not incorporate linux into it. And even then, it would be incredibly sketchy.

I don't get the comic strip and the suspicion around microsoft celebrating open source and other things. What are the halloween documents? please clarify.

I understand the worry of MS just “stomping” on open-source eventually. But, what's the difference between this and ChromeOS' linux dev tools? Both are corporate OSs that are simply add feature to existing infrastructure.

The Halloween docs were some internal memos from Microsoft made and leaked in 1998, basically they said that Lunix was a huge threat to Microsoft and NT servers. They said that strategies such public manipulation, patents, FUD, and EEE could be used to eliminate Linux and FOSS. EEE is basically what Microsoft did to Java, the adopted it, had proprietary additions that only worked on Windows, Java was dropped as a real coding language

I've been playing around with the Linux vTTY recently. By installing Emacs, I can write code in the tty rather than in a graphical IDE. It's certainly a different experience, although I enjoy it.
