What tools does Alec use?
Posted by Alec on 9 July 2009
After Perl Mongers last night there was a short discussion over tools. Here is my preferred list
- Vim editor
- Git version control (and GitHub to host my remote repos)
- Linux operating system
- Perl and CPAN for programming. Not a prefect language, but has wide applicability to the the types of problems I solve
- Google search engine
- Email (gmail)
- Bash and the UNIX command line tools (sort, find, grep etc etc)
- OpenOffice
- Paper journal/notebook (currently using a Moleskine, but I prefer a Miquelrius)
