I recently set up AntiX Core on a super old mini PC, and I'm looking for recommendations on useful CLI programs to install. So far, I've added tmux and htop for their practicality, and neofetch for a bit of flair. I'd love to hear your suggestions for other utility programs, text and file editors, aesthetic enhancements, or anything that could boost usability.

Don't forget to regularly back up your data and try new stuff in a VM. And make sure you understand commands before hitting Enter to avoid mishaps!

You might want to install these: mc (Midnight Commander), nano or micro for text editing, links for browsing, and nvim if you're into more advanced editing. Also, don’t forget to explore zsh for your shell!

Zoxide, eza, bat, and ripgrep are some other handy tools you might want to check out. They really enhance your command line toolkit.

If you want more efficient editing, try nvim with plugins. For command line, fzf (fuzzy finder) is awesome. I also recommend man or tldr for simplified command use. TLDR is a lifesaver for beginners, and you can install it easily to get quick command summaries.
