[Windows only]

I recently discovered Cmder:

https://cmder.app/

It's a portable console emulator and gives you the ability to "place your own executable files into the bin folder to be injected into your PATH" when it's run.

So far I've added:

jq

yq

rigrep

zsv

sqlite

curl

pandoc

ffmpeg

exiftool

What else would be good to add to the toolbox?




What is the conemu dotgithub dot io about?

Blocking by Zone Identifier Under some circumstances ConEmu’s binaries may be marked as Downloaded from Internet.

This, in turn, may cause:

blocking by Windows SmartScreen; superfluous UAC confirmations while starting ConEmu or consoles; False alarms from antiviral software; and so on… Unblocking You may unblock each binary file by opening their properties, clicking ‘Unblock’ and ‘Apply’.


jrnl

This is a command line journaling application.

lazygit, btop


Cmder can include git for windows with access to bash tools. Is lazygit much better than normal git?
