What Do I Use Revisited, Revisited
Don Harper
After last week’s series of post, I decided to revisit a post from 6 years ago, which in itself revisiting a post from 19 years ago called What Do I Use? which listed some of the software I used on a daily basis.
And, guess what? It is still pretty much the same software.
| Original | Past | Preset | Comments |

| bash - my shell of choice | Still Bash | Still bash | Why change something that works |
| screen - a shell multiplexer and more | tmux | tmux + tmuxinator | Scripted tmux? Yes, please |
| mutt-ng - a mua on steroids | mutt | neomutt | Better intergration with other tools |
