Linux-Based Tools (KDE)

It is difficult to recommend a few cool tools for a platform that comes loaded with so many cool utilities. Furthermore, some of the cross-platform tools recommended in this section also run on Linux. Nevertheless, here are a few recommended to me by colleagues.

Some K Development Environment (KDE) utilities that you might want to check outKonsole, Klipper, KEdit, KPrinter, Kate, Kompare, KFind, KSnapshot, KRuler, K3B, KAlarm, KTimer, KInfoCenter, KWiFiManager, and KSayIt.

Pollix Live CD (based on Knoppix, which boots directly from the CD; no install!)Pollix is loaded with programming tools such as Eclipse, NetBeans, Python, and others; http://moe.tnc.edu.tw/%7Ekendrew/pollix/.

Other Linux utilities include locate, expect, and wish.
