etc. I've yet to see even one piece of software
that would be of
serious use to me that runs under UNIX. I know that I could force
myself to use Netscape,
How can anyone do anything useful with a computer without the
following? Emacs, TeX/LaTeX, dvips, the Bourne shell for scripts,
ghostview, gimp, xv, PostgreSQL or Oracle, Perl, C, various useful
UNIX utilities (e.g. tar, awk, nawk, grep, sed, dc, ed, diff, cal, at,
bc, od, lint, etc.), to name a very few of the extremely useful
programs that run on UNIX systems.
