everywhere: everything :-) mozilla-firebird gimp xzgv for image viewing it's small and fast but is missing good filemanagment (traditional filemanagers are to slow when opening up images, they don't reuse an already open window when opening another image or if they do reuse it they resize the window) xterm (the original, no fakes or clones, because none of those work when logging into a machine that doesn't run linux (and does not have a matching termcap for anything but xterm and real terminals) window maker for window managing, also because it is rather small and still has enough features screen!! to make me independant of my own workstation and bad networks, the most critical things, like email and irc with other developers are run from a server to which i connect with ssh. screen is running on every machine i connect to (including my local workstation if i have one) leading to screen being nested several levels deep (and occasionally even in a loop ;-) inside screen i runn: mutt (email) ircii and all the filemanagment stuff, basicly everything else that is not covered by the above gui programs. if i don't get to use linux then i may settle with putty and a mozilla based browser on a windows machine. putty emulates xterm quite well and uses the X copy-paste semantics, so that using it feels like at home. greetings, martin. -- looking for a job doing pike programming, sTeam/caudium/pike/roxen training, sTeam/caudium/roxen and/or unix system administration anywhere in the world. -- pike programmer travelling and working in europe (latvia) open-steam.org unix system- bahai.or.at iaeste.(tuwien.ac|or).at administrator (stuts|black.linux-m68k).org is.schon.org Martin B�hr http://www.iaeste.or.at/~mbaehr/
