I find these tools really make life easier.
Here is how to install all the tools listed below in once command,
| Code Block |

sudo apt-get isntall mlocate ne htop screen colordiff wdiff telnet zip unzip |
Otherwise you can continue to read about each and install them selectively.
mlocate
mlocate is a nice file search tool. Better than slocate because it respects permissions when searching. Faster and easier to use then find because it uses a database. As of Ubuntu 9.0.4 is part of the installation and a cron is already setup to keep the search index database up to date.
