Ask HN: Interesting TUIs (text user interfaces), maybe forgotten ones?
I personally love TUI software, you don't have to worry about GUI toolkits, mouse focused interaction, you can run them remotely over SSH, they're often composable, and composability is much easier, and who doesn't like the hackerman aesthetic?
Some things I don't like about modern TUIs is developers getting away from the purpose of them, portability. Often you'll find really beautiful TUIs that require installation of custom fonts for icons and other overcomplicated stuff like that. They can be nice, but generally they sacrifice the practical benefit to a significant degree.
One I discovered yesterday, not really a TUI, more of a shell but still, extremely powerful, is kalc https://github.com/bgkillas/kalc which is a complete scientific and graphing calculator in the terminal. It depends on gnuplot which is unfortunate since that is a GUI program, but there we go with composability again! It's fine and works and does what it needs to, so not really a big deal I guess.

[Possibly OT] Is there a list of command-line versions of any Unix/Linux GUI applications?
https://github.com/toolleeo/cli-apps and https://github.com/rothgar/awesome-tuis? Though it doesn't mention a specific GUI apps (eg, Lynx is under either Web Browser or Web on those lists), and it's just lists, no actual comparison or review etc. I usually found AlternativeTo to be somewhat decent start to see what features and alternatives I can expect across platform.

- Debian CLI Tool Installer via python - checks if software exists prior to install (why in Python? Eventual plans is to make it work on all major OSes)
- Created a python app for Ubuntu (aka Debian-like systems that use apt) that downloads TUI apps I use - simplifies starting up vms — if you have app suggestions, please leave them in the comments, thanks 🙏
