我所使用的Linux软件集合

自从2003～2004春节之际初次尝试使用Linux以来，至今已十年有余了。尤其是整个博士研究期间，坚持在Linux下开展学习与研究工作，前前后后试用了不少桌面环境、窗口管理器、终端程序以及其他应用软件、科学软件。一开始这些试探对于学习与熟悉Linux系统是有所帮助的。但是，学习该系统的最终目的还是为了让其为自己的学习与工作服务，发挥出最大的效力，而不是将时间浪费在系统的配置与bug的修正上。因此，对于软件的尝试还是要适可而止。当逐渐形成自己的一套工具软件集合后就要将其固化下来，坚持使用它们并不断提升操作的熟练程度和增进技巧。以下，列举我所使用的Linux软件集合。
