Since KDE is my favorite desktop environment, kde-apps.org was a nice source of information. Most of the apps I&#8217;ve already heard of, but it was just a matter of writing it down once, in order not to forget and possibly be useful to migrating people.<br \/>\nSince I&#8217;m on windows right now, I&#8217;ll wait to publish the list until I have verified and tested all apps. Since there are some new ones, their quality still has to be proven. \ud83d\ude09 Also I&#8217;m wondering if it wouldn&#8217;t be better to only post these I finally actually use in the end. \ud83d\ude42 but that would delay the whole thing a lot, since this can only be decided after a lot of testing &#8212; dilemma.. \ud83d\ude09<\/p>\n<p>A few years ago, I tried to make a similar list and concluded I just wasn&#8217;t ready for linux due to the lack of a lot of GUI tools I&#8217;m used to in windows. Today, I&#8217;m pleased to see the situation has a lot changed! The only programs left I had trouble to find alternatives for, were TCPview and filemon, 2 monitoring tools for network connections and file access respectively. Still, I found an <a href=\"http:\/\/majordomo.squawk.com\/njs\/blog\/2006\/02\/interpreting-procprocessfd0-9-entries.html\">interesting blog post about network connection monitoring<\/a>. So I might wanna try something out myself. \ud83d\ude09<br \/>\nAs far as file monitoring is concerned, the case seems <a href=\"http:\/\/lkml.org\/lkml\/2006\/2\/24\/29\" title=\"using inotify or kernel patch at VFS level, read the whole thread\">a bit harder<\/a>, but not impossible. \ud83d\ude09<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>ehrm, today I got the silly idea to run through all kde apps releases at kde-apps.org released in 2006&#8230; There were more than I anticipated! \ud83d\ude09 (around 850) A few weeks ago, I started to compile a list of linux alternatives for all important windows applications I use in daily routine.
