I was really hoping to hear back from others and their favorite cli tools :(
@wwwgem I was going to reply but forgot. I have a running list of my favorite CLI programs on my capsule.

@wwwgem Which reminds me I have a couple things to add to it.
@wwwgem Separate page for terminal games I like. I need to add some more to this list.

@kelbot Thanks but no thanks... Because of you I'm back in roguelike games ^^
@kelbot Very interesting. Thanks for sharing. I've been through quite some of these tools but I'm also discovering some.
Well I can tell you Emacs tools, but I thought you are more interested in CLI tools.
@redstarfish I have been an emacs user but neovim and cli tools eventually works better for my workflow. The ability to build the best system for your needs thanks to a gigantic variety of available tools is really one of the great powers offer by GNU/Linux. Everyone can find what works best for him/her and that invaluable.
nvim plugins (more):
karb94/neoscroll (smooth scrolling)
SirVer/ultisnips (snippsets)
simnalamburt/vim-mundo (advanced undo with history)
jdhao/better-escape (faster escape from insert mode)
junegunn/fzf (asynchronous Lua API for using fzf)
michaelb/sniprun (code runner and testing inside neovim)
