Which simple command-line tools do you love?

[jmfayard]

Hello,

Do you have any favorite simple, clever, useful command-line tools?

I would like to play around creating command-line apps with my favorite programming language: Kotlin.
Instead of doing meaningless applications, I would like to try to reproduce existing simple, clever command-line apps.

Examples could be:

• TLDR pages community man page
• kamranahmedse/git-standup

I replaced cd completely with z (agkozak/zsh-z) , which lets you navigate folders with pattern matching based on "frecency". So i can type things like z po si in any terminal and it will navigate to /home/kilian/workspace/development/polypane/website. It also does tab completion and there's similar stuff for sh, bash and fish, if you use any of those.
