[echo]

has anyone made a list of which are essential or good to have?
the wiki at preterhuman has a list of what i assume is all of it, and sometimes descriptions.
but it's a mystery as to which are any good and most of the nekoware has no description at all, just a filename.

if such a list doesn't exist it would be great if you guys can give your opinions,
say what the app does and why its good or better/worse than another one.
or if you think one is useless, say that too.

i'm mainly interested in programming and 3d modelling/animation stuff. so what is useful to me maybe useless crap to you.
but we can probably find a consensus of what is good and bad for a certain type of user.
and of course, what apps are general purpose and useful to everyone, and what is bloat and useful to nobody.
