Since it is that time of year, they published an advent list of terminal articles. I found it interesting, as it included some things I have not seen in a very long time. Assuming you have a Linux system to play with, enjoy a little terminal nostalgia (although not all are that old). A lot of this will run under macOS or BSD, but I’m not too sure about Windows Bash. Here is the body of the email. If the holidays have left you with a little free time, or the kid's presents aren't keeping them entertained as long as you may have hoped, check out our Linux command-line toys advent calendar. No matter what holidays you celebrate, the Opensource.com <http://opensource.com/> team wishes you peace and a joyful end to the year, and a successful 2019.
