Howdy y’all!

I’m curious about everyone’s favorite/most used CLI tool! Please include your favorite as well as your use case if you don’t mind. Mine is rsync, which I use to keep my home music storage synced with my music player’s SD card.

Runner up is ranger to navigate files. I mainly use this to quickly visually navigate mounted drives that I did not organize myself.

Hope to hear from you all soon, thanks!

    It’s a replacement for grep, which searches the content of text files for a regular expression.

    Ripgrep is very fast. If you use grep, it’s an easy drop-in.
