| grsync "In someways this is is awesome, it's simple, FAST, but the older version had problems with erroniously named files that had | (pipe) or : or / accidentally in them, where are once upon a time Linus was really good at copying ALL files without halts or errors. Now the general file managers are nit picking pains in the arse, that halt every 20 minutes, on an 8 hour overnight back up, and this version is still a little buggy. However what is annoying, is that this is version 1.2.6 which came out in 2015, and it's now up to version 1.3.0, which came out in 2020. So this seriously needs updating, as the new version pretty much copies everything, even with defective file names etc. The bug with updating from a download, is that I can't get it to install... http://www.opbyte.it/grsync/ http://www.opbyte.it/grsync/download.html It is a great and FAST back up program..... but we need the update. Thanks" |

| alarm-clock-applet "Mmmm sometimes it's a real work of art to make something simple, straight forward, easy to use and it is stable, reliable and it works. I like this program a lot.. And this has the really limited functions of timer (great), alarm, and the choices of the stock audio or you can select your own... love it. A few different timers 3 minutes sit down, 10 minutes active work = or variations of = hugely useful." |

| swisswatch "Very much a fan of the MacSlow Cairo Clock, set with a radium face, coarse adjustment to the seconds hand so it jumps second by second instead of sweeping. This program, on this Mint"software, can't acess the or a control interfaceto set clockface, size, and adjustment. It's also stuck with a panel and tool bar. on the desktop... Good program but at an impass for the time being.Nice but there is " |

| oneko "It's sort of fun, and you can end up with multiple cats chasing the pointer..., but also quickly annoying with no controls. The program works, but there are NO gui controls, and although you can control it by command line, the website has no instructions for linux except for downloading some compressed files. Site has not been updated since 1999 (or there abouts) . Ceases to be a novelty and quickly becomes a distraction, obscruction and annoyance. Very annoying when you need to locate and place the pointer a real lot. Worth a look, but uninstall is the easiest control option. Uninstall + Task Manager - kill = problem solved." |
