It reminds me of one I forgot: Anything that's sufficiently UNIX-ish for me to open a terminal and get real work done, preferably without swearing about all the missing bits. I'd also add "an X11 implementation" because it's rare that I'm working in an environment where I'm not near a UNIX box I'll want to display some apps from. I also forgot Cyrus IMAPd. That's the mail server OS/X Server uses, by the way, and it's absolutely brilliant. Having to go back to using an ISP's POP server now would be most frustrating. Oh, yeah, and in case you forgot in the intervening time, vim too ;-) . That app finally broke my addition to BBEdit (which I used to use mostly because of its regex support). I have to try very hard not to stare, completely agog, at people who say they prefer to program in Notepad. Where do I start? No column select/edit/replace, no regex, no syntax highlighting ... it's incredible. -- Craig Ringer
