I've put together a list of some open source programs
that run on both Linux and Windows. I did this for
those who might be on the fence about trying Linux.
Hopefully, this will make your transition easier
since you've had a chance to run these programs
on Windows.
This list isn't random, these are programs
that I currently use or have tried and all in
stable versions.

One thing that frustrates users at a command line is
remembering what to enter to get things going.
Vim & Wingrep will serve you better if you understand
regular expressions.
