Can "CD/DVD Burning Tools" be considered part of "Multimedia"?<br />
Should "Screen Capture" section be part of "Utilities" or "Multimedia"? --[[User:AlexanderR|AlexanderR]] 21:10, 16 January 2012 (EST)<br />
<br />
:Eh I'm afraid we'll just have to establish a convention: I'd say Burning tools in Multimedia and Screen Capture in Utilities? Let's wait for more opinions. -- [[User:Kynikos|Kynikos]] 07:53, 17 January 2012 (EST)<br />
<br />
::As I see, '''CD/DVD Burning Tools''' are already a part of '''Multimedia'''. '''Screen Capture''', I think, must be in '''Utilities'''.<br />
::And there's another question from russian users. '''OCR software''' isn't a reader or viewer, so it must be before or after '''1.9 Note taking organizers''' with corresponding number '''1.9''' or '''1.10'''<br />
::UPD. Also, there's a good idea to add in this section some (or all) progs from [[Optical Character Recognition]] -- [[User:Kycok|Kycok]] ([[User talk:Kycok|talk]]) 05:32, 11 April 2014 (UTC)<br />
<br />
:::Um... "Utilities" is practically a default category for applications that don't fit anywhere else: since "Screen capture" is kind of related to "Multimedia", it would probably be better to leave it there (thus changing the opinion I expressed above, I think I'm allowed, after more than 2 years :P ).<br />
:::I'm quite neutral about moving "OCR software" in the tree: it is related to "Scans", but maybe not so closely. I'm also neutral about merging [[Optical Character Recognition]] there: actually that article doesn't contain anything except for a short list of applications, so it could indeed be merged.<br />
:::Anyone with a stronger position on the topic? -- [[User:Kynikos|Kynikos]] ([[User talk:Kynikos|talk]]) 14:12, 11 April 2014 (UTC)<br />
<br />
::::So, I've made corresponding changes in '''Documents''' section. Also I've merged '''Pdf''' and '''DjVu''', because many progs in '''Pdf''' works with DjVu. I've deleted tool '''fbdjvu''', because, as I see, it's merged with '''fbpdf'''.<br />
::::Let's talk if there's another opinions about my changes -- [[User:Kycok|Kycok]] ([[User talk:Kycok|talk]]) 09:59, 14 April 2014 (UTC)<br />
<br />
:::::Well done, except you forgot to redirect [[Optical Character Recognition]], [https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php?title=Optical_Character_Recognition&diff=310498&oldid=273112 fixed] now :) -- [[User:Kynikos|Kynikos]] ([[User talk:Kynikos|talk]]) 12:53, 15 April 2014 (UTC)<br />

I have submitted a AUR package for {{AUR|sendanywhere}}, a cross-platform p2p file sharing utility (similar to Pushbullet, but with standalone software client). I am not sure under which section I should include it. It is definitely not FTP based or bittorrent based. Should it go under '''Downloaders''' or '''Communications'''; also, shall I start a new subsection, maybe called '''p2p file sharing/pushing'''? [[User:Jadelord|Jadelord]] ([[User talk:Jadelord|talk]]) 11:17, 6 January 2016 (UTC)<br />
<br />
:I've just created [[List_of_applications/Internet#Other_P2P_networks]], I think that's the best place for the moment. — [[User:Kynikos|Kynikos]] ([[User talk:Kynikos|talk]]) 03:11, 7 January 2016 (UTC)<br />
<br />
=== Split up completely? ===<br />
Just wondering if it would be better to completely split the article up into separate articles, rather than transcluding everything back in as templates. Perhaps just include links and a brief summary of each category in the top-level page, maybe something along the lines of:<br />
<br />
{{META Box | | This page has various categories of programs and points to lists of programs in those categories. It is a useful starting point for finding a program for a specific application. [Introduce console versus graphical.]<br />
<br />
'''[[Common Applications/Internet | Internet]]''' including network configuration, and clients or browsers for web sites, FTP, file sharing, chat and email messaging, web feeds, and microblogging<br />
<br />
'''[[Common Applications/Multimedia | Multimedia]]''' including viewers, players and editors for raster, vector, 3D, CAD, audio and video, GUI capture, systems for accessing audio devices, audio CD rippers, and e-book programs.<br />
<br />
'''[[Common Applications/Utilities | Utilities]]''', which covers package management, file managers including space usage, compression and merge tools, optical disc burning, clipboards, GUI taskbars.<br />
<br />
'''[[Common Applications/Documents | Documents]]''': readers for printable files like PDFs, office suites, word processors, spreadsheets, text search, OCR<br />
<br />
'''[[Common Applications/Security | Security]]''': firewalls; file, network and log monitoring, scanning and analysis; backup<br />
<br />
'''[[Common Applications/Games | Games]]''': native and emulators<br />
<br />
'''[[Common Applications/Science | Science]]''': calculators, visualisation, design, programming environments and other tools for maths, chemistry, biology, astronomy, electronics and physics<br />
<br />
'''[[Common Applications/Other | Other]]''': note taking and scheduling; translation; desktop environments and window managers; terminals; OS monitors; text editors<br />
<br />
'''See also''' [other general lists of programs]}}<br />
<br />
Smaller individual pages would be nicer, because often I’m only interested in programs for a specific application, such as (in the past) [[Common Applications/Science#Electronics | Science#Electronics]], and [[Common Applications/Multimedia#GUI players | Multimedia#GUI players]] (audio). Even using the TOC, I think currently it’s too easy to get lost or overwhelmed. [[User:Vadmium|Vadmium]] 00:18, 26 January 2012 (EST).<br />
<br />
:I think the main problem here is that if I'm looking for a particular subcategory I have to guess under which main category it can be, while currently, with the comprehensive ToC, that task is easier. Possible compromise: maintain a "manual" Table of Contents in the top-level page, with links to the various subpages/subsections. Let's hear more opinions. -- [[User:Kynikos|Kynikos]] 07:53, 26 January 2012 (EST)<br />
<br />
==See also visibility==<br />
Does somebody have any idea on how to improve the visibility of the See also section? -- [[User:Kynikos|Kynikos]] 07:13, 23 January 2012 (EST)<br />
:Its probably not in good style, but could we add an [[Writing Article Overviews| article overview]], and have an article summary section containing the see also links?--[[User:Leocp1|Leocp1]] 16:59, 23 January 2012 (EST)<br />
::@Leocp1 What links are you talking about? Wiki links already should be covered by [[Template:Article_summary_wiki]]), among others I'd prefer to see only '''important''' ones (like links to software home page, documentation, own wiki etc) included included in the template. --[[User:AlexanderR|AlexanderR]] 19:11, 23 January 2012 (EST)<br />
:::I've written a summary in the subsection below and added some other ideas: currently I think solution 4 may be the tidiest and best looking, otherwise I'd try solution 1 as a second choice. Please add your opinions there so we can make a better decision.<br />
:::@AlexanderR We're talking about the See also links at the bottom of the article, not the links specific to each application, which should stay in the proper App template and/or the related wiki article (I'm not sure if that's what you meant).<br />
:::-- [[User:Kynikos|Kynikos]] 07:38, 24 January 2012 (EST)<br />
::::Who in the world uses this links at all? Wikipedia does not have any links at the bottom of articles except proofs of written or ones in categories templates. We do not provide proofs.. Or do we? And it would be great to see statistics of clicks on such links... --[[User:AlexanderR|AlexanderR]] 08:01, 24 January 2012 (EST)<br />
:::::Not sure if I'm on the same page as you, but many Wikipedia articles have 'External links' section at the bottom, below the references and above the 'Related articles' part. Have a look at e.g. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Uefi article. It has 'See also', 'References' and 'External links' sections. -- [[User:Karol|Karol]] 08:43, 24 January 2012 (EST)<br />

===Ideas so far===<br />
#Move all see-also links to article summary --[[User:Leocp1|Leocp1]] 16:59, 23 January 2012 (EST)<br />
#*PROS:<br />
#**Currently style compliant (but see related con) -- [[User:Kynikos|Kynikos]] 07:38, 24 January 2012 (EST)<br />
#*CONS:<br />
#**There's little room for long URLs and/or descriptions, unless we want to see ugly line wrapping. -- [[User:Kynikos|Kynikos]] 07:38, 24 January 2012 (EST)<br />
#**It's possible that in the future the style for article summaries will be reformed not to allow external links anymore, requiring them to be in See also sections only. -- [[User:Kynikos|Kynikos]] 07:38, 24 January 2012 (EST)<br />
#Move only important see-also links to article summary --[[User:AlexanderR|AlexanderR]] 19:11, 23 January 2012 (EST)<br />
#*PROS:<br />
#**Same as 1.<br />
#**No problems with line wrapping. --[[User:AlexanderR|AlexanderR]] 23:48, 3 February 2012 (EST)<br />
#**In many articles links to site/Wikipedia/etc. are already located in random places in text. Placing them all into single template at the top will hardly make "See also" section less visible than now. --[[User:AlexanderR|AlexanderR]] 23:48, 3 February 2012 (EST)<br />
#*CONS:<br />
#**Same as 1.<br />
#**The See also section will be even more "buried" at the bottom of the article, becoming practically useless. -- [[User:Kynikos|Kynikos]] 07:38, 24 January 2012 (EST)<br />
#Find a new name instead of "See also", move the section at the top, as the first section (and change its layout, e.g. use 2 columns?). -- [[User:Kynikos|Kynikos]] 07:38, 24 January 2012 (EST)<br />
#*PROS:<br />
#**Links are immediately accessible and there's room for long URLs and descriptions. -- [[User:Kynikos|Kynikos]] 07:38, 24 January 2012 (EST)<br />
#*CONS:<br />
#**Incosistent with the other articles, may look ugly. -- [[User:Kynikos|Kynikos]] 07:38, 24 January 2012 (EST)<br />
#Link to [[#See also]] from the introduction, with a sentence that enhances its visibility. -- [[User:Kynikos|Kynikos]] 07:38, 24 January 2012 (EST)<br />
#*PROS:<br />
#**Style compliant. -- [[User:Kynikos|Kynikos]] 07:38, 24 January 2012 (EST)<br />
#**The main content of the article is still shown first. -- [[User:Kynikos|Kynikos]] 07:38, 24 January 2012 (EST)<br />
#*CONS:<br />
#**Links are not evident at a glance unlike the solutions above. -- [[User:Kynikos|Kynikos]] 07:38, 24 January 2012 (EST)<br />

Moving here Conspire from the IRC clients section, since it's reported to fail to build and it had been commented in the list (bad practice):<br />

== Multi-Protocol Downloader section ==<br />
<br />
Similarly to command shells, a downloader section is missing. Here we find good the same one: [[pyLoad#Alternatives]] [[JDownloader#Alternatives]].<br />
Plus aria2, curl, wget, kget should be added. Is it ok? Could you point me more downloaders?<br />
As kget and aria2 would be doubled we can do a "Multi-Protocol Downloader" section like [[List_of_Applications#Multi-Protocol Clients]] and delete original entries liting supported protocols. -- [[User:Flu|Flu]] ([[User talk:Flu|talk]]) 16:37, 8 September 2013 (UTC)<br />
<br />

<br />
== Order of things? ==<br />
<br />
Is there any special order to these lists?<br />
<br />
For instance, under "Internet" it would seem more intuitive to begin with "Network Managers", then "Browsers", then a section for "Downloaders". and so on.<br />
[[User:Idomeneo1|Idomeneo1]] ([[User talk:Idomeneo1|talk]]) 00:51, 20 January 2014 (UTC)<br />
<br />
:"Intuitive" is subjective, I'd just simply use alphabetical order, although I know it's not used anywhere at the moment... -- [[User:Kynikos|Kynikos]] ([[User talk:Kynikos|talk]]) 21:07, 20 January 2014 (UTC)<br />
<br />
::Call it chronological? i.e. an order in which people (especially beginners) would think of setting things up - network, browser, communication, downloads, media etc.<br />
::The problem with alphabetical lists is that even if we decide on "correct" terms for things, some people will, i.e., look for 'console', and others for 'terminal'.<br />
::[[User:Idomeneo1|Idomeneo1]] ([[User talk:Idomeneo1|talk]]) 14:10, 21 January 2014 (UTC)<br />
<br />
:::Eheh a similar objection could be made for the "chronological" order, which, as I said, is subjective, e.g. some people may want to install messaging apps before p2p or vice versa. Maybe what you really mean is a "dependency" order, i.e. if in a group of sections there's one that lists applications (e.g. network managers) that may be necessary for applications in other groups to work, then put it at the top. I can agree with that, also because other sections like the various "Other" should instead better be kept at the bottom. All the in-between sections, though, should be sorted alphabetically: the problem of synonyms would affect any kind of odering we may choose, and in general it affects all kinds of word lists (e.g. dictionaries), so users are used to dealing with it.<br />
:::If you're willing to do the reordering, please do it in several little edits, not a single big one.<br />
:::-- [[User:Kynikos|Kynikos]] ([[User talk:Kynikos|talk]]) 07:13, 22 January 2014 (UTC)<br />
<br />
::::Yes, having "Other" at the end is exactly the kind of order I mean.<br />

== List dead projects or not? ==<br />
[https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php?title=List_of_Applications/Multimedia&diff=next&oldid=296040 Kino is dead], it doesn't even have a maintainer in the AUR. Is it OK to remove dead-but-still-working applications from the list in the wiki? -- [[User:Karol|Karol]] ([[User talk:Karol|talk]]) 14:16, 3 February 2014 (UTC)<br />
<br />
:I wouldn't really know what's best to do, but if the application is confirmed to be still working, ''keep''ing it in the list should be the default action until somebody proves that listing it is counterproductive in some way. Of course a note about the EOL should be added if restored. -- [[User:Kynikos|Kynikos]] ([[User talk:Kynikos|talk]]) 15:50, 4 February 2014 (UTC)<br />
<br />
[http://www.afterstep.org/aterm.php The aterm project website] has been directing people to use urxvt instead since 2008.

<br />
:Well, the apps whose ''upstream'' maintainers explicitly discourage using them can indeed be removed, possibly making sure that any indicated alternative is already present in this list, adding it otherwise.

::I propose a deprecation warning, especially in the security subpage. there are numerous projects listed, that might still work, but are not developed anymore. this renders them insecure, as malware recognition needs to keep up with developement.

== Where should "full-stack" scanning software go? ==<br />
<br />
Some software (two examples below, I can add a few more when I have times) provide some set of scanner/camera frontend, image processing, document layout analysis, OCR frontend and document writer. We have categories for almost all of these, but where should software that smoothly incorporates all the above go?<br />
<br />
* {{App|Scan Tailor|Image procesing, document layout analyzer, document writer|http://scantailor.sourceforge.net/|{{Pkg|scantailor-git}}}}<br />
* {{App|gscan2pdf|Scans, runs an OCR engine, minor post-processing, creates a document.|http://gscan2pdf.sourceforge.net/|{{AUR|gscan2pdf}}}}<br />
<br />
I had some difficulty finding software that did what I expected/desired, so perhaps others are too. [[User:Scientific29|Scientific29]] ([[User talk:Scientific29|talk]]) 01:16, 5 September 2014 (UTC)<br />

== AUR3 packages ==<br />
<br />
It's been about half a year since the transition to AUR4, so I think it's time to start slowly removing the references to the old packages that were not migrated. The lists such as this one, its translations, [[Fonts#Font packages]] etc. would be a good start, we can wait even longer with normal pages. What do you say? -- [[User:Lahwaacz|Lahwaacz]] ([[User talk:Lahwaacz|talk]]) 13:06, 16 January 2016 (UTC)<br />

== What is Xpra, really? ==<br />
<br />
Where should [[Xpra]] go? Technically, remote desktop may be applicable, but it's not limited to remote stuff. You can run<br />
it locally on another X display.<br />
<br />
Technically, all Xpra is is some persistent X sessions that you can attach to and detach from at any time. It's not ''really''<br />
a remote desktop thing.<br />

<br />
::Technically, yes. This ''is'' the list of applications, so why not? Xpra is a "screen for X". That way, the least vague thing to do would be to split terminal multiplexers into a multiplexers category and there would be two subcategories: terminal and X11. Xpra would, ''obviously'' be in X11. I say least vague, since screen is a multiplexer, yet Xpra isn't. The only thing it has in common with screen is the persistent sessions. [[User:Dillebidum|Dillebidum]] ([[User talk:Dillebidum|talk]]) 20:37, 11 January 2017 (UTC)<br />
<br />
:::It's just ''a'' list of applications, not list of ''all'' applications.

== Add Org-mode as a markup language? ==<br />
<br />
Org-mode is a markup language, but it is tied to the Emacs text editor. Any editor can produce valid org markup, but at present, only Emacs can export that markup to pdf, .tex, html, etc. <br />
<br />
Org-mode is such a great markup language, but I wonder if being tied to the Emacs means we should omit it. What do ya'll think?<br />

<br />
== Scope of the page ==<br />
<br />
It seems that this page is becoming a bloated index for all possible "lists" on the wiki, or maybe even the whole wiki itself. There are other pages to help users find what they are looking for, e.g. [[Table of contents]], [[General recommendations]] and of course the full-text search. Therefore I think that the [[List of applications]] should be a ''comprehensible'' list of the most common categories of application software and not a ''comprehensive'' list of everything. I believe that the index pages can have separate targets and cooperate with each other to provide a complete picture instead of overlapping and hindering readability by linking to each other.<br />
<br />
I propose the following:<br />
<br />
* remove [[List_of_applications/Workspace#Command_shells]] - one does not look for an alternative shell "just because", but to solve some specific problem or inconvenience, which is out of the reach of this page ([[General_recommendations#Console_improvements]] covers it quite nicely)<br />
* I do not consider the things linked from [[List_of_applications/Workspace#Bootsplash]] to be "applications" and would like it removed. An explicit link to [[:Category:Bootsplash]] could be added to [[General_recommendations#Appearance]], although it already links to its parent category: [[:Category:Eye candy]].<br />
* remove [[List_of_applications/Workspace#Display_managers]], [[List_of_applications/Workspace#Desktop_environments]], [[List_of_applications/Workspace#Window_managers]] and [[List_of_applications/Workspace#Composite_managers]] - the topic is much better covered in [[General_recommendations#Graphical_user_interface]] (the two packages from [[List_of_applications/Workspace#Window_managers]] could be moved to [[General_recommendations#Console_improvements]])<br />
* <s>remove [[List_of_applications/Workspace#Accessibility]]</s> - it is a topic of its own, not just about selecting applications<br />
* <s>remove [[List_of_applications/Utilities#Databases]]</s> - they are certainly not utilities (so much less applications), but complex systems consisting of many deamons, utilities and interfaces designed to work together<br />
* <s>remove the [[List_of_applications/Internet#Web_Servers]] section:</s><br />
** <s>merge [[List_of_applications/Internet#LAMP_stack]] to [[Server#LAMP]]</s> - I doubt it is useful for an average user<br />
** <s>remove [[List_of_applications/Internet#Wiki_engines]]</s> - it is very incomplete and like above, not useful<br />
** <s>move [[List_of_applications/Internet#Content_management.2C_social_networks.2C_blog_publishers]] back to [[List_of_applications/Internet#Blog_engines]]</s><br />
** <s>move [[List_of_applications/Internet#Cloud_storage_servers]] under [[List_of_applications/Internet#File_sharing]]</s><br />

:I've undone most of the structural changes to [[List of applications]] (starting with [https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php?title=List_of_applications/Workspace&oldid=469393]) due to their one-sided nature. A radical restructure of one of the most popular wiki articles requires a consensus that isn't (yet) reached here. -- [[User:Alad|Alad]] ([[User talk:Alad|talk]]) 14:38, 15 March 2017 (UTC)<br />
<br />
:About Display managers et al., perhaps we should just have a general header such as "Graphical user interface" and link to [[General recommendations#Graphical user interface]]. The idea is that the sections in question contain little more than single wiki links and as such add TOC entries to little benefit. As touched upon in [[#Radical alternative]], a comprehensive TOC is already served by [[Table of Contents]] and there's no need for this page to compete. We could remind users of this by placing a link to [[Table of contents]] somewhere at the top.<br />
:Other sections such as [[List_of_applications/Other#Window_tilers]] could further be moved to their respective articles (here [[Window manager]]) to have all information in one place.<br />
:If this approach works out, we could use it to reduce [[List of applications/Other]] and [[List of applications/Utilities]] in size and merge the articles accordingly, as a compromise until a better approach is agreed upon in [[#Radical alternative]]. -- [[User:Alad|Alad]] ([[User talk:Alad|talk]]) 14:48, 15 March 2017 (UTC)<br />

=== Server applications ===<br />
<br />
:1. Applications that require a LAMP stack, such as Blog engines, Cloud storage, and Content managers like Drupal and Wordpress see widespread use, and most were already listed here. The variety of server options ''that they require'' also belong here. Server apps should also be in their own section (and linked to, from the client section), because their purpose and implementation is distinct. And when you set up a server, it is useful to have a list of server apps. Users looking for clients apps are not going to be looking for server apps until they're setting up a server.<br />
:"I doubt it is useful for an average user" - what exactly is an "average user"? This is an opinion that is quite frankly not true.<br />

::Let's take it one at a time. It seems you want to take all applications which have something to do with a client-server model, split the server part away from the client's category and create one big category of these server things. Well, then for starters "Web Servers" is not the right name for it. But I'll dispute even the existence of such section on this page, regardless of its name, for two reasons:<br />
::# Selecting applications to set up a (web or whatever) server takes more then a short entry in a list. One needs to consider the concrete usecase and often even a combination of applications as a whole rather than each application separately for its purpose. Hence this topic belongs to the [[Server]] page, where more details can be provided. Of course this page could link to it.<br />
::# The current way is to split sections according to software categories (i.e. their purpose), not based on whether they require the LAMP stack, have to be run on server or simple desktop will suffice. I'd say this corresponds with how people search for software first they have a purpose, then they concern with what they need to run the software.<br />

:::A server is more than a LAMP stack - not all server apps used on the web require LAMP stacks.<br />
:::Users look for client apps and server apps for very different reasons.<br />
:::Also the [[Server]] page provides little guidance on selecting LAMP components, and none of the options provided on this list. Most apps can be used on a number of server/dbase combinations, and it's up to the user to settle on what works best for them, just as with any other application.<br />

<br />
::::Obviously various servers run all sorts of software, often even client software to communicate with other servers. The separation of software based on where it runs (server or desktop) is impossible, often it can be both. A "Servers" section that you propose would be a catch-all section which would evenutally become impossible to read and maintain. Categorization based on the software purpose is much more useful in my view.<br />

:::::Yes, you can run whatever apps you like on your box. If you're setting up a server you have different needs than if your just setting up a regular box. Someone looking for a chat app doesn't need to have chat servers listed, and a person setting up a server most likely already has their apps, and would like server apps in one place. If I, say, wanted chat apps and servers all listed together, I would just search for "chat" or "XMPP" in the pkg dbase. Lists like this should "add value" for the user over simple searches.<br />

:3a. The [[Table of contents]] is a list of wiki pages. It does not include any apps that don't happen to have one, including ones that work out of the box and don't need one.<br />
:3b. If [[General recommendations]] were to take on the information in these lists - there are ''eight'' lists here - then ''that page'' would become bloated. It wouldn't be a bad idea in fact to link from General Recommendations to the relevant section in this list.<br />
:3c. You search when you already know exactly what you're looking for. Lists are for finding new apps you didn't know about.<br />
:4. Databases: ''all'' apps are "complex systems" in many ways. And there are several dbases to choose from.<br />
:5. I agree that basic things like core-utils should not be on this list. (However, Linux users in particular ''do'' explore alternatives "just because".)<br />
:6. I think a Bootsplash is still a workspace option and should be represented here. (I've never used one, but I think others would consider trying one if they come across the option.)<br />

=== Radical alternative ===<br />
<br />
Warning: extreme brainstorming, join at your own risk.<br />
<br />
I agree with Lahwaacz about the fact that this page is becoming bloated and overlapping with the other index pages. However I also think that the very existence of this article (and its subsections) encourages Idomeneo1's approach, and honestly I don't think it's Simple anymore to understand what to keep here and what not, what to interlink where and what not etc., any solution still looks a bit arbitrary to me.<br />
<br />
I was thinking, perhaps we could kill this page completely and merge the various sections in the appropriate Category pages, taking the chance to improve the [[Table of contents|Category tree]], possibly also creating empty categories if needed, which would function as placeholders in that case, or each Category could still contain a main section and some subsections. I think that our current [[Table of contents]] already has some resemblance with the ToC of this article, so that scope overlapping/duplication may be the root cause of the parent discussion. Categories can also have multiple parents, which would address the current problem of having to interlink sections of this article with each other. Another advantage is that users would get more used to look into the Category page of an article, not only to find related articles, but now also to find related software that may not have wiki articles. Another advantage is that when creating an article about a piece of software it's already clear where to categorize it.<br />
<br />
Disadvantages: we lose the ability to see all the applications in the same page. (and...?)<br />
<br />
Last thing, I think that this idea would look the best if the app lists were changed to tables, as we discussed a long time ago in [[Talk:List of games]] and now I tried in [[User:Kynikos/App]]. [[Template:App]] can be changed to create a table row very easily, but I'd also like to discuss restructuring it as shown at the bottom of [[User:Kynikos/App#Terminal emulators]], which IMO gives info less redundantly.<br />
<br />
Enough :) — [[User:Kynikos|Kynikos]] ([[User talk:Kynikos|talk]]) 18:12, 5 March 2017 (UTC)<br />
<br />
:Currently we have a rule that if category A has a subcategory B, pages in B cannot be categorized also in A. I'd imagine that the application lists/tables would follow similar rule to avoid duplication, so we'd also lose the ability to see all applications in category A on the same page. Depending on how the actual categorization would look like, this might be important disadvantage - consider e.g. the subsections of [[List_of_applications#File_sharing]].<br />

<br />
::Personally I don't think that viewing the whole [[List of applications#File sharing]] section in the same page is so useful; seeing its section structure in the ToC is useful, but that would be preserved in the automated category tree. As I wrote, we could allow subsections in Category pages, for example to keep non-specific distinctions like console/graphical or client/server. We could also instruct toc.py to read section headings in Category pages and show them in the generated ToC (perhaps only under [[:Category:Applications]]). Finally, it wouldn't be a violation of the DRY principle if we also generated pages that collate the contents of some Categories and their descendants, of course protecting them from manual editing. — [[User:Kynikos|Kynikos]] ([[User talk:Kynikos|talk]]) 05:56, 6 March 2017 (UTC)<br />
<br />
:::On second thought, [[:Category:Applications]] currently has only 2 levels of subcategories so I think the problem mentioned above does not apply. If more levels appear in the future, I'd imagine it would be for a reason and even then it might not be so terrible. The parent tables or their captions might even contain a link to the subcategory tables to make them more visible instead of duplicating them. -- [[User:Lahwaacz|Lahwaacz]] ([[User talk:Lahwaacz|talk]]) 18:25, 8 March 2017 (UTC)<br />

:::On third thought, we might even start with splitting up this very page, i.e. do [[#Split up completely?]] + an autogenerated ToC list of sections on all subpages. -- [[User:Lahwaacz|Lahwaacz]] ([[User talk:Lahwaacz|talk]]) 18:33, 8 March 2017 (UTC)<br />

<br />
:I was actually thinking that for applications which have a wiki page, browsing [[:Category:Applications]] instead of this page should give basically the same results (maybe some small subsections are squashed together, but that's not a problem). To make things simple(r), we might just say that topics which have most pages outside of [[:Category:Applications]] don't belong here and should be linked externally. Usually such topics have an introduction page, such as [[Server]], [[Xorg]] or [[Desktop environments]]. There would be a huge problem with "Utilities" and "Security" though. Also this approach would probably not cut the bloat enough.<br />

<br />
::As I said, I think that trying to find a clear rule to define what belongs in this page or not is too hard, there are too many blurred cases, as also seen in the parent discussion. IMHO the bloat problem of this article can't be reduced to only some sections in [[List of applications/Workspace]]: I like your "I think that the List of applications should be a comprehensible list of the most common categories of application software and not a comprehensive list of everything", but to me "List of applications" practically does sound like "List of everything", which is why I say that the problem is the whole article itself. — [[User:Kynikos|Kynikos]] ([[User talk:Kynikos|talk]]) 15:19, 8 March 2017 (UTC)<br />
<br />
:::Well think that we can cut it in halves: I don't see many problems with [[List of applications/Internet]], [[List of applications/Multimedia]], [[List of applications/Documents]] and [[List of applications/Science]] - they are all with individual sections or even list entries, but the overall scope is clear. On the other hand, most of the "applications" listed on the remaining pages, [[List of applications/Workspace]], [[List of applications/Utilities]], [[List of applications/Security]] and [[List of applications/Other]], fall simply under "Utilities". From what the current page looks like, I think it's roughly like "Desktop utilities", "System administration utilities", "Security utilities" and (shrugs) "Other utilities", but there are many overlaps so it's probably not very useful to make this differentiation and it would be better to call them just "Utilities". Btw. I think that the category tree has generally the same problem with arbitrary decisions: somehow I don't see a common idea behind [[:Category:Command shells]] under [[:Category:Applications]] and [[:Category:Desktop environments]] under [[:Category:System administration]].

<br />
::::Let's use the branch above about the destiny of this article.<br />
::::About the categories, as you say the problem is similar, I don't think there's much to do other than solve case by case: I'm in favor of moving [[:Category:Command shells]] and also [[:Category:Status monitoring and notification]] and [[:Category:Terminal emulators]] under [[:Category:System administration]]. Another thing that I'd do is rename [[:Category:Networking]] to [[:Category:Network administration]], and move only to [[:Category:Applications]] what doesn't fit there anymore, in particular [[:Category:Internet applications]], [[:Category:Telephony and voice]] and probably also [[:Category:Remote desktop]], plus possibly recategorize some articles which are currently directly under [[:Category:Networking]]. At that stage I would also consider renaming [[:Category:System administration]] to [[:Category:Host administration]] to remark the ''ideal'' complementarity of the two *_administration categories.<br />

::::Tables in this case more than simplifying would reduce bloat, since many entries would be reduced to one line (at least on wide screens), and the various fields (name, description, website, packages) would be neatly and rationally separated, making it much easier to scan for the needed info. Tables are also a more standard and often preferred way to list and compare applications e.g. on Wikipedia.<br />
::::About breaking the lists further and merging them into specific wiki pages, I'd be in favor if you want to discuss specific cases. However what is merged into other articles can't be duplicated in a "master list-of-apps page".<br />

There are too many other variances: the current template app allows for short or longer descriptions, a single bot comment may shift column width for a whole table, etc. Worst: Even on a wide screen (which can't be a precondition in my view) table data would always break URLs, which is neither readable nor a neat, positive presentation. --[[User:Indigo|Indigo]] ([[User talk:Indigo|talk]]) 21:07, 8 March 2017 (UTC)<br />

::::::Just clarifying that my plan was to eventually switch to the format at the bottom of [[User:Kynikos/App#Terminal_emulators]], which doesn't display urls explicitly. Other modifications in the 3-column table solution that I see as advantages would be to resolve the current [[Template:App]]'s redundancy of always requiring to show the app's packages even when there is a dedicated article which already lists them. However I acknowledge that the idea of using tables isn't attracting much positive feedback, so ok, I'll keep it for the future generations ^^ — [[User:Kynikos|Kynikos]] ([[User talk:Kynikos|talk]]) 16:12, 9 March 2017 (UTC)<br />

::::::: Ok, thanks. Not displaying URLs would help, yes. Still I don't believe we would be able to make column width look neat across sections. Nested tables (for neatness) are not an option re maintainability. I see your point about showing duplication with the packages, but particularly in this list it can also be quite helpful to click through to content of alternative packages directly.

The default location for the {{pkg|dhcpcd}}'s wpa_supplicant hook is {{ic|/etc/wpa_supplicant.conf}}, not {{ic|/etc/wpa_supplicant/wpa_supplicant.conf}} (look at {{ic|/usr/lib/dhcpcd/dhcpcd-hooks/10-wpa_supplicant}}, line 6). The second edit confirms that this was not an overlook, so I must ask where did you get this bullshit? I hope that the other edits I did not check (yet) are of much better quality.<br />
<br />
Seeing that you changed the default config path across the entire article, I must point out that the path {{ic|/etc/wpa_supplicant.conf}} was given intentionally - the user should not edit the bloated {{ic|/etc/wpa_supplicant/wpa_supplicant.conf}} provided by {{pkg|wpa_supplicant}}, and instead create a small, tailored config file - the path here does not really matter, since {{ic|/etc/wpa_supplicant.conf}} is used as default by multiple networking managers ArchWiki just re-used this path.<br />

Can "CD/DVD Burning Tools" be considered part of "Multimedia"?<br />
Should "Screen Capture" section be part of "Utilities" or "Multimedia"? --[[User:AlexanderR|AlexanderR]] 21:10, 16 January 2012 (EST)<br />
<br />
:Eh I'm afraid we'll just have to establish a convention: I'd say Burning tools in Multimedia and Screen Capture in Utilities? Let's wait for more opinions. -- [[User:Kynikos|Kynikos]] 07:53, 17 January 2012 (EST)<br />
<br />
::As I see, '''CD/DVD Burning Tools''' are already a part of '''Multimedia'''. '''Screen Capture''', I think, must be in '''Utilities'''.<br />
::And there's another question from russian users. '''OCR software''' isn't a reader or viewer, so it must be before or after '''1.9 Note taking organizers''' with corresponding number '''1.9''' or '''1.10'''<br />
::UPD. Also, there's a good idea to add in this section some (or all) progs from [[Optical Character Recognition]] -- [[User:Kycok|Kycok]] ([[User talk:Kycok|talk]]) 05:32, 11 April 2014 (UTC)<br />
<br />
:::Um... "Utilities" is practically a default category for applications that don't fit anywhere else: since "Screen capture" is kind of related to "Multimedia", it would probably be better to leave it there (thus changing the opinion I expressed above, I think I'm allowed, after more than 2 years :P ).<br />
:::I'm quite neutral about moving "OCR software" in the tree: it is related to "Scans", but maybe not so closely. I'm also neutral about merging [[Optical Character Recognition]] there: actually that article doesn't contain anything except for a short list of applications, so it could indeed be merged.<br />
:::Anyone with a stronger position on the topic? -- [[User:Kynikos|Kynikos]] ([[User talk:Kynikos|talk]]) 14:12, 11 April 2014 (UTC)<br />
<br />
::::So, I've made corresponding changes in '''Documents''' section. Also I've merged '''Pdf''' and '''DjVu''', because many progs in '''Pdf''' works with DjVu. I've deleted tool '''fbdjvu''', because, as I see, it's merged with '''fbpdf'''.<br />
::::Let's talk if there's another opinions about my changes -- [[User:Kycok|Kycok]] ([[User talk:Kycok|talk]]) 09:59, 14 April 2014 (UTC)<br />
<br />
:::::Well done, except you forgot to redirect [[Optical Character Recognition]], [https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php?title=Optical_Character_Recognition&diff=310498&oldid=273112 fixed] now :) -- [[User:Kynikos|Kynikos]] ([[User talk:Kynikos|talk]]) 12:53, 15 April 2014 (UTC)<br />
<br />
<br />
I have submitted a AUR package for {{AUR|sendanywhere}}, a cross-platform p2p file sharing utility (similar to Pushbullet, but with standalone software client). I am not sure under which section I should include it. It is definitely not FTP based or bittorrent based. Should it go under '''Downloaders''' or '''Communications'''; also, shall I start a new subsection, maybe called '''p2p file sharing/pushing'''? [[User:Jadelord|Jadelord]] ([[User talk:Jadelord|talk]]) 11:17, 6 January 2016 (UTC)<br />
<br />
:I've just created [[List_of_applications/Internet#Other_P2P_networks]], I think that's the best place for the moment. — [[User:Kynikos|Kynikos]] ([[User talk:Kynikos|talk]]) 03:11, 7 January 2016 (UTC)<br />
<br />
=== Split up completely? ===<br />
Just wondering if it would be better to completely split the article up into separate articles, rather than transcluding everything back in as templates. Perhaps just include links and a brief summary of each category in the top-level page, maybe something along the lines of:<br />
<br />
{{META Box | | This page has various categories of programs and points to lists of programs in those categories. It is a useful starting point for finding a program for a specific application. [Introduce console versus graphical.]<br />
<br />
'''[[Common Applications/Internet | Internet]]''' including network configuration, and clients or browsers for web sites, FTP, file sharing, chat and email messaging, web feeds, and microblogging<br />
<br />
'''[[Common Applications/Multimedia | Multimedia]]''' including viewers, players and editors for raster, vector, 3D, CAD, audio and video, GUI capture, systems for accessing audio devices, audio CD rippers, and e-book programs.<br />
<br />
'''[[Common Applications/Utilities | Utilities]]''', which covers package management, file managers including space usage, compression and merge tools, optical disc burning, clipboards, GUI taskbars.<br />
<br />
'''[[Common Applications/Documents | Documents]]''': readers for printable files like PDFs, office suites, word processors, spreadsheets, text search, OCR<br />
<br />
'''[[Common Applications/Security | Security]]''': firewalls; file, network and log monitoring, scanning and analysis; backup<br />
<br />
'''[[Common Applications/Games | Games]]''': native and emulators<br />
<br />
'''[[Common Applications/Science | Science]]''': calculators, visualisation, design, programming environments and other tools for maths, chemistry, biology, astronomy, electronics and physics<br />
<br />
'''[[Common Applications/Other | Other]]''': note taking and scheduling; translation; desktop environments and window managers; terminals; OS monitors; text editors<br />
<br />
'''See also''' [other general lists of programs]}}<br />
<br />
Smaller individual pages would be nicer, because often I’m only interested in programs for a specific application, such as (in the past) [[Common Applications/Science#Electronics | Science#Electronics]], and [[Common Applications/Multimedia#GUI players | Multimedia#GUI players]] (audio). Even using the TOC, I think currently it’s too easy to get lost or overwhelmed. [[User:Vadmium|Vadmium]] 00:18, 26 January 2012 (EST).<br />
<br />
:I think the main problem here is that if I'm looking for a particular subcategory I have to guess under which main category it can be, while currently, with the comprehensive ToC, that task is easier. Possible compromise: maintain a "manual" Table of Contents in the top-level page, with links to the various subpages/subsections. Let's hear more opinions. -- [[User:Kynikos|Kynikos]] 07:53, 26 January 2012 (EST)<br />
<br />
==See also visibility==<br />
Does somebody have any idea on how to improve the visibility of the See also section? -- [[User:Kynikos|Kynikos]] 07:13, 23 January 2012 (EST)<br />
:Its probably not in good style, but could we add an [[Writing Article Overviews| article overview]], and have an article summary section containing the see also links?--[[User:Leocp1|Leocp1]] 16:59, 23 January 2012 (EST)<br />
::@Leocp1 What links are you talking about? Wiki links already should be covered by [[Template:Article_summary_wiki]]), among others I'd prefer to see only '''important''' ones (like links to software home page, documentation, own wiki etc) included included in the template. --[[User:AlexanderR|AlexanderR]] 19:11, 23 January 2012 (EST)<br />
:::I've written a summary in the subsection below and added some other ideas: currently I think solution 4 may be the tidiest and best looking, otherwise I'd try solution 1 as a second choice. Please add your opinions there so we can make a better decision.<br />
:::@AlexanderR We're talking about the See also links at the bottom of the article, not the links specific to each application, which should stay in the proper App template and/or the related wiki article (I'm not sure if that's what you meant).<br />
:::-- [[User:Kynikos|Kynikos]] 07:38, 24 January 2012 (EST)<br />
::::Who in the world uses this links at all? Wikipedia does not have any links at the bottom of articles except proofs of written or ones in categories templates. We do not provide proofs.. Or do we? And it would be great to see statistics of clicks on such links... --[[User:AlexanderR|AlexanderR]] 08:01, 24 January 2012 (EST)<br />
:::::Not sure if I'm on the same page as you, but many Wikipedia articles have 'External links' section at the bottom, below the references and above the 'Related articles' part. Have a look at e.g. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Uefi article. It has 'See also', 'References' and 'External links' sections. -- [[User:Karol|Karol]] 08:43, 24 January 2012 (EST)<br />
<br />
<br />

===Ideas so far===<br />
#Move all see-also links to article summary --[[User:Leocp1|Leocp1]] 16:59, 23 January 2012 (EST)<br />
#*PROS:<br />
#**Currently style compliant (but see related con) -- [[User:Kynikos|Kynikos]] 07:38, 24 January 2012 (EST)<br />
#*CONS:<br />
#**There's little room for long URLs and/or descriptions, unless we want to see ugly line wrapping. -- [[User:Kynikos|Kynikos]] 07:38, 24 January 2012 (EST)<br />
#**It's possible that in the future the style for article summaries will be reformed not to allow external links anymore, requiring them to be in See also sections only. -- [[User:Kynikos|Kynikos]] 07:38, 24 January 2012 (EST)<br />
#Move only important see-also links to article summary --[[User:AlexanderR|AlexanderR]] 19:11, 23 January 2012 (EST)<br />
#*PROS:<br />
#**Same as 1.<br />
#**No problems with line wrapping. --[[User:AlexanderR|AlexanderR]] 23:48, 3 February 2012 (EST)<br />
#**In many articles links to site/Wikipedia/etc. are already located in random places in text. Placing them all into single template at the top will hardly make "See also" section less visible than now. --[[User:AlexanderR|AlexanderR]] 23:48, 3 February 2012 (EST)<br />
#*CONS:<br />
#**Same as 1.<br />
#**The See also section will be even more "buried" at the bottom of the article, becoming practically useless. -- [[User:Kynikos|Kynikos]] 07:38, 24 January 2012 (EST)<br />
#Find a new name instead of "See also", move the section at the top, as the first section (and change its layout, e.g. use 2 columns?). -- [[User:Kynikos|Kynikos]] 07:38, 24 January 2012 (EST)<br />
#*PROS:<br />
#**Links are immediately accessible and there's room for long URLs and descriptions. -- [[User:Kynikos|Kynikos]] 07:38, 24 January 2012 (EST)<br />
#*CONS:<br />
#**Incosistent with the other articles, may look ugly. -- [[User:Kynikos|Kynikos]] 07:38, 24 January 2012 (EST)<br />
#Link to [[#See also]] from the introduction, with a sentence that enhances its visibility. -- [[User:Kynikos|Kynikos]] 07:38, 24 January 2012 (EST)<br />
#*PROS:<br />
#**Style compliant. -- [[User:Kynikos|Kynikos]] 07:38, 24 January 2012 (EST)<br />
#**The main content of the article is still shown first. -- [[User:Kynikos|Kynikos]] 07:38, 24 January 2012 (EST)<br />
#*CONS:<br />
#**Links are not evident at a glance unlike the solutions above. -- [[User:Kynikos|Kynikos]] 07:38, 24 January 2012 (EST)<br />

== IRC clients: Conspire fails to build ==<br />
<br />
Moving here Conspire from the IRC clients section, since it's reported to fail to build and it had been commented in the list (bad practice):<br />
<br />
* {{App|Conspire|Lightweight, simple, and powerful|http://nenolod.net/|{{AUR|conspire-client}}}}<br />

== Multi-Protocol Downloader section ==<br />
<br />
Similarly to command shells, a downloader section is missing. Here we find good the same one: [[pyLoad#Alternatives]] [[JDownloader#Alternatives]].<br />
Plus aria2, curl, wget, kget should be added. Is it ok? Could you point me more downloaders?<br />
As kget and aria2 would be doubled we can do a "Multi-Protocol Downloader" section like [[List_of_Applications#Multi-Protocol Clients]] and delete original entries liting supported protocols. -- [[User:Flu|Flu]] ([[User talk:Flu|talk]]) 16:37, 8 September 2013 (UTC)<br />
<br />
:Good plan, +1. -- [[User:Kynikos|Kynikos]] ([[User talk:Kynikos|talk]]) 05:01, 11 September 2013 (UTC)<br />
<br />
== Order of things? ==<br />
<br />
Is there any special order to these lists?<br />
<br />
For instance, under "Internet" it would seem more intuitive to begin with "Network Managers", then "Browsers", then a section for "Downloaders". and so on.<br />
[[User:Idomeneo1|Idomeneo1]] ([[User talk:Idomeneo1|talk]]) 00:51, 20 January 2014 (UTC)<br />
<br />
:"Intuitive" is subjective, I'd just simply use alphabetical order, although I know it's not used anywhere at the moment... -- [[User:Kynikos|Kynikos]] ([[User talk:Kynikos|talk]]) 21:07, 20 January 2014 (UTC)<br />
<br />
::Call it chronological? i.e. an order in which people (especially beginners) would think of setting things up - network, browser, communication, downloads, media etc.<br />
::The problem with alphabetical lists is that even if we decide on "correct" terms for things, some people will, i.e., look for 'console', and others for 'terminal'.<br />
::[[User:Idomeneo1|Idomeneo1]] ([[User talk:Idomeneo1|talk]]) 14:10, 21 January 2014 (UTC)<br />
<br />
:::Eheh a similar objection could be made for the "chronological" order, which, as I said, is subjective, e.g. some people may want to install messaging apps before p2p or vice versa. Maybe what you really mean is a "dependency" order, i.e. if in a group of sections there's one that lists applications (e.g. network managers) that may be necessary for applications in other groups to work, then put it at the top. I can agree with that, also because other sections like the various "Other" should instead better be kept at the bottom. All the in-between sections, though, should be sorted alphabetically: the problem of synonyms would affect any kind of odering we may choose, and in general it affects all kinds of word lists (e.g. dictionaries), so users are used to dealing with it.<br />
:::If you're willing to do the reordering, please do it in several little edits, not a single big one.<br />
:::-- [[User:Kynikos|Kynikos]] ([[User talk:Kynikos|talk]]) 07:13, 22 January 2014 (UTC)<br />
<br />
::::Yes, having "Other" at the end is exactly the kind of order I mean.<br />

== List dead projects or not? ==<br />
[https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php?title=List_of_Applications/Multimedia&diff=next&oldid=296040 Kino is dead], it doesn't even have a maintainer in the AUR. Is it OK to remove dead-but-still-working applications from the list in the wiki? -- [[User:Karol|Karol]] ([[User talk:Karol|talk]]) 14:16, 3 February 2014 (UTC)<br />
<br />
:I wouldn't really know what's best to do, but if the application is confirmed to be still working, ''keep''ing it in the list should be the default action until somebody proves that listing it is counterproductive in some way. Of course a note about the EOL should be added if restored. -- [[User:Kynikos|Kynikos]] ([[User talk:Kynikos|talk]]) 15:50, 4 February 2014 (UTC)<br />

== Where should "full-stack" scanning software go? ==<br />
<br />
Some software (two examples below, I can add a few more when I have times) provide some set of scanner/camera frontend, image processing, document layout analysis, OCR frontend and document writer. We have categories for almost all of these, but where should software that smoothly incorporates all the above go?<br />
<br />
* {{App|Scan Tailor|Image procesing, document layout analyzer, document writer|http://scantailor.sourceforge.net/|{{Pkg|scantailor-git}}}}<br />
* {{App|gscan2pdf|Scans, runs an OCR engine, minor post-processing, creates a document.|http://gscan2pdf.sourceforge.net/|{{AUR|gscan2pdf}}}}<br />

== Scope of the page ==<br />
<br />
It seems that this page is becoming a bloated index for all possible "lists" on the wiki, or maybe even the whole wiki itself. There are other pages to help users find what they are looking for, e.g. [[Table of contents]], [[General recommendations]] and of course the full-text search. Therefore I think that the [[List of applications]] should be a ''comprehensible'' list of the most common categories of application software and not a ''comprehensive'' list of everything. I believe that the index pages can have separate targets and cooperate with each other to provide a complete picture instead of overlapping and hindering readability by linking to each other.<br />
<br />
I propose the following:<br />
<br />
* remove [[List_of_applications/Workspace#Command_shells]] - one does not look for an alternative shell "just because", but to solve some specific problem or inconvenience, which is out of the reach of this page ([[General_recommendations#Console_improvements]] covers it quite nicely)<br />
* I do not consider the things linked from [[List_of_applications/Workspace#Bootsplash]] to be "applications" and would like it removed. An explicit link to [[:Category:Bootsplash]] could be added to [[General_recommendations#Appearance]], although it already links to its parent category: [[:Category:Eye candy]].<br />
* remove [[List_of_applications/Workspace#Display_managers]], [[List_of_applications/Workspace#Desktop_environments]], [[List_of_applications/Workspace#Window_managers]] and [[List_of_applications/Workspace#Composite_managers]] - the topic is much better covered in [[General_recommendations#Graphical_user_interface]] (the two packages from [[List_of_applications/Workspace#Window_managers]] could be moved to [[General_recommendations#Console_improvements]])<br />
* remove [[List_of_applications/Workspace#Accessibility]] - it is a topic of its own, not just about selecting applications<br />
* remove [[List_of_applications/Utilities#Databases]] - they are certainly not utilities (so much less applications), but complex systems consisting of many deamons, utilities and interfaces designed to work together<br />
* remove the [[List_of_applications/Internet#Web_Servers]] section:<br />
** merge [[List_of_applications/Internet#LAMP_stack]] to [[Server#LAMP]] - I doubt it is useful for an average user<br />
** remove [[List_of_applications/Internet#Wiki_engines]] - it is very incomplete and like above, not useful<br />
** move [[List_of_applications/Internet#Content_management.2C_social_networks.2C_blog_publishers]] back to [[List_of_applications/Internet#Blog_engines]]<br />
** move [[List_of_applications/Internet#Cloud_storage_servers]] under [[List_of_applications/Internet#File_sharing]]<br />

:1. Applications that require a LAMP stack, such as Blog engines, Cloud storage, and Content managers like Drupal and Wordpress see widespread use, and most were already listed here. The variety of server options ''that they require'' also belong here. Server apps should also be in their own section (and linked to, from the client section), because their purpose and implementation is distinct. And when you set up a server, it is useful to have a list of server apps. Users looking for clients apps are not going to be looking for server apps until they're setting up a server.<br />
:"I doubt it is useful for an average user" - what exactly is an "average user"? This is an opinion that is quite frankly not true.<br />
:Also, if some section seems incomplete, then improve it, instead of simply using its incompleteness as an argument for removing it.<br />
:2. The biggest bloat in this list are all the dead links.<br />
:3a. The [[Table of contents]] is a list of wiki pages. It does not include any apps that don't happen to have one, including ones that work out of the box and don't need one.<br />
:3b. If [[General recommendations]] were to take on the information in these lists - there are ''eight'' lists here - then ''that page'' would become bloated. It wouldn't be a bad idea in fact to link from General Recommendations to the relevant section in this list.<br />
:3c. You search when you already know exactly what you're looking for. Lists are for finding new apps you didn't know about.<br />
:4. Databases: ''all'' apps are "complex systems" in many ways. And there are several dbases to choose from.<br />
:5. I agree that basic things like core-utils should not be on this list. (However, Linux users in particular ''do'' explore alternatives "just because".)<br />
:6. I think a Bootsplash is still a workspace option and should be represented here. (I've never used one, but I think others would consider trying one if they come across the option.)<br />
:7. I think Accessibility should not be overlooked. Linking to an detailed article is fine.<br />
:8. I also seem to need to emphasize that I have not "bloated" this list, but am trying to make it more coherent.<br />

::Let's take it one at a time. It seems you want to take all applications which have something to do with a client-server model, split the server part away from the client's category and create one big category of these server things. Well, then for starters "Web Servers" is not the right name for it. But I'll dispute even the existence of such section on this page, regardless of its name, for two reasons:<br />
::# Selecting applications to set up a (web or whatever) server takes more then a short entry in a list. One needs to consider the concrete usecase and often even a combination of applications as a whole rather than each application separately for its purpose. Hence this topic belongs to the [[Server]] page, where more details can be provided. Of course this page could link to it.<br />
::# The current way is to split sections according to software categories (i.e. their purpose), not based on whether they require the LAMP stack, have to be run on server or simple desktop will suffice. I'd say this corresponds with how people search for software first they have a purpose, then they concern with what they need to run the software.<br />

<br />
:::A server is more than a LAMP stack - not all server apps used on the web require LAMP stacks.<br />
:::Users look for client apps and server apps for very different reasons.<br />
:::Also the [[Server]] page provides little guidance on selecting LAMP components, and none of the options provided on this list. Most apps can be used on a number of server/dbase combinations, and it's up to the user to settle on what works best for them, just as with any other application.<br />

::::Obviously various servers run all sorts of software, often even client software to communicate with other servers. The separation of software based on where it runs (server or desktop) is impossible, often it can be both. A "Servers" section that you propose would be a catch-all section which would evenutally become impossible to read and maintain. Categorization based on the software purpose is much more useful in my view.<br />

:::::Yes, you can run whatever apps you like on your box. If you're setting up a server you have different needs than if your just setting up a regular box. Someone looking for a chat app doesn't need to have chat servers listed, and a person setting up a server most likely already has their apps, and would like server apps in one place. If I, say, wanted chat apps and servers all listed together, I would just search for "chat" or "XMPP" in the pkg dbase. Lists like this should "add value" for the user over simple searches.<br />

=== Radical alternative ===<br />
<br />
Warning: extreme brainstorming, join at your own risk.<br />
<br />
I agree with Lahwaacz about the fact that this page is becoming bloated and overlapping with the other index pages. However I also think that the very existence of this article (and its subsections) encourages Idomeneo1's approach, and honestly I don't think it's Simple anymore to understand what to keep here and what not, what to interlink where and what not etc., any solution still looks a bit arbitrary to me.<br />
<br />
I was thinking, perhaps we could kill this page completely and merge the various sections in the appropriate Category pages, taking the chance to improve the [[Table of contents|Category tree]], possibly also creating empty categories if needed, which would function as placeholders in that case, or each Category could still contain a main section and some subsections. I think that our current [[Table of contents]] already has some resemblance with the ToC of this article, so that scope overlapping/duplication may be the root cause of the parent discussion. Categories can also have multiple parents, which would address the current problem of having to interlink sections of this article with each other. Another advantage is that users would get more used to look into the Category page of an article, not only to find related articles, but now also to find related software that may not have wiki articles. Another advantage is that when creating an article about a piece of software it's already clear where to categorize it.<br />
<br />
Disadvantages: we lose the ability to see all the applications in the same page. (and...?)<br />
<br />
Last thing, I think that this idea would look the best if the app lists were changed to tables, as we discussed a long time ago in [[Talk:List of games]] and now I tried in [[User:Kynikos/App]]. [[Template:App]] can be changed to create a table row very easily, but I'd also like to discuss restructuring it as shown at the bottom of [[User:Kynikos/App#Terminal emulators]], which IMO gives info less redundantly.<br />

:Currently we have a rule that if category A has a subcategory B, pages in B cannot be categorized also in A. I'd imagine that the application lists/tables would follow similar rule to avoid duplication, so we'd also lose the ability to see all applications in category A on the same page. Depending on how the actual categorization would look like, this might be important disadvantage - consider e.g. the subsections of [[List_of_applications#File_sharing]].<br />

::Personally I don't think that viewing the whole [[List of applications#File sharing]] section in the same page is so useful; seeing its section structure in the ToC is useful, but that would be preserved in the automated category tree. As I wrote, we could allow subsections in Category pages, for example to keep non-specific distinctions like console/graphical or client/server. We could also instruct toc.py to read section headings in Category pages and show them in the generated ToC (perhaps only under [[:Category:Applications]]). Finally, it wouldn't be a violation of the DRY principle if we also generated pages that collate the contents of some Categories and their descendants, of course protecting them from manual editing. — [[User:Kynikos|Kynikos]] ([[User talk:Kynikos|talk]]) 05:56, 6 March 2017 (UTC)<br />

:::On second thought, [[:Category:Applications]] currently has only 2 levels of subcategories so I think the problem mentioned above does not apply.

:I was actually thinking that for applications which have a wiki page, browsing [[:Category:Applications]] instead of this page should give basically the same results (maybe some small subsections are squashed together, but that's not a problem). To make things simple(r), we might just say that topics which have most pages outside of [[:Category:Applications]] don't belong here and should be linked externally. Usually such topics have an introduction page, such as [[Server]], [[Xorg]] or [[Desktop environments]]. There would be a huge problem with "Utilities" and "Security" though.

::As I said, I think that trying to find a clear rule to define what belongs in this page or not is too hard, there are too many blurred cases, as also seen in the parent discussion. IMHO the bloat problem of this article can't be reduced to only some sections in [[List of applications/Workspace]]: I like your "I think that the List of applications should be a comprehensible list of the most common categories of application software and not a comprehensive list of everything", but to me "List of applications" practically does sound like "List of everything", which is why I say that the problem is the whole article itself. — [[User:Kynikos|Kynikos]] ([[User talk:Kynikos|talk]]) 15:19, 8 March 2017 (UTC)<br />

:::Well think that we can cut it in halves: I don't see many problems with [[List of applications/Internet]], [[List of applications/Multimedia]], [[List of applications/Documents]] and [[List of applications/Science]] - they are all with individual sections or even list entries, but the overall scope is clear. On the other hand, most of the "applications" listed on the remaining pages, [[List of applications/Workspace]], [[List of applications/Utilities]], [[List of applications/Security]] and [[List of applications/Other]], fall simply under "Utilities". From what the current page looks like, I think it's roughly like "Desktop utilities", "System administration utilities", "Security utilities" and (shrugs) "Other utilities", but there are many overlaps so it's probably not very useful to make this differentiation and it would be better to call them just "Utilities". Btw. I think that the category tree has generally the same problem with arbitrary decisions: somehow I don't see a common idea behind [[:Category:Command shells]] under [[:Category:Applications]] and [[:Category:Desktop environments]] under [[:Category:System administration]].

Another thing that I'd do is rename [[:Category:Networking]] to [[:Category:Network administration]], and move only to [[:Category:Applications]] what doesn't fit there anymore, in particular [[:Category:Internet applications]], [[:Category:Telephony and voice]] and probably also [[:Category:Remote desktop]], plus possibly recategorize some articles which are currently directly under [[:Category:Networking]].

Can "CD/DVD Burning Tools" be considered part of "Multimedia"?<br />
Should "Screen Capture" section be part of "Utilities" or "Multimedia"? --[[User:AlexanderR|AlexanderR]] 21:10, 16 January 2012 (EST)<br />
<br />
:Eh I'm afraid we'll just have to establish a convention: I'd say Burning tools in Multimedia and Screen Capture in Utilities? Let's wait for more opinions. -- [[User:Kynikos|Kynikos]] 07:53, 17 January 2012 (EST)<br />
<br />
::As I see, '''CD/DVD Burning Tools''' are already a part of '''Multimedia'''. '''Screen Capture''', I think, must be in '''Utilities'''.<br />
::And there's another question from russian users. '''OCR software''' isn't a reader or viewer, so it must be before or after '''1.9 Note taking organizers''' with corresponding number '''1.9''' or '''1.10'''<br />
::UPD. Also, there's a good idea to add in this section some (or all) progs from [[Optical Character Recognition]] -- [[User:Kycok|Kycok]] ([[User talk:Kycok|talk]]) 05:32, 11 April 2014 (UTC)<br />
<br />
:::Um... "Utilities" is practically a default category for applications that don't fit anywhere else: since "Screen capture" is kind of related to "Multimedia", it would probably be better to leave it there (thus changing the opinion I expressed above, I think I'm allowed, after more than 2 years :P ).<br />
:::I'm quite neutral about moving "OCR software" in the tree: it is related to "Scans", but maybe not so closely. I'm also neutral about merging [[Optical Character Recognition]] there: actually that article doesn't contain anything except for a short list of applications, so it could indeed be merged.<br />

I have submitted a AUR package for {{AUR|sendanywhere}}, a cross-platform p2p file sharing utility (similar to Pushbullet, but with standalone software client). I am not sure under which section I should include it. It is definitely not FTP based or bittorrent based. Should it go under '''Downloaders''' or '''Communications'''; also, shall I start a new subsection, maybe called '''p2p file sharing/pushing'''?

=== Split up completely? ===<br />
Just wondering if it would be better to completely split the article up into separate articles, rather than transcluding everything back in as templates. Perhaps just include links and a brief summary of each category in the top-level page, maybe something along the lines of:<br />
<br />
{{META Box | | This page has various categories of programs and points to lists of programs in those categories. It is a useful starting point for finding a program for a specific application. [Introduce console versus graphical.]<br />
<br />
'''[[Common Applications/Internet | Internet]]''' including network configuration, and clients or browsers for web sites, FTP, file sharing, chat and email messaging, web feeds, and microblogging<br />
<br />
'''[[Common Applications/Multimedia | Multimedia]]''' including viewers, players and editors for raster, vector, 3D, CAD, audio and video, GUI capture, systems for accessing audio devices, audio CD rippers, and e-book programs.<br />
<br />
'''[[Common Applications/Utilities | Utilities]]''', which covers package management, file managers including space usage, compression and merge tools, optical disc burning, clipboards, GUI taskbars.<br />
<br />
'''[[Common Applications/Documents | Documents]]''': readers for printable files like PDFs, office suites, word processors, spreadsheets, text search, OCR<br />
<br />
'''[[Common Applications/Security | Security]]''': firewalls; file, network and log monitoring, scanning and analysis; backup<br />
<br />
'''[[Common Applications/Games | Games]]''': native and emulators<br />
<br />
'''[[Common Applications/Science | Science]]''': calculators, visualisation, design, programming environments and other tools for maths, chemistry, biology, astronomy, electronics and physics<br />
<br />
'''[[Common Applications/Other | Other]]''': note taking and scheduling; translation; desktop environments and window managers; terminals; OS monitors; text editors<br />
<br />
'''See also''' [other general lists of programs]}}<br />
<br />
Smaller individual pages would be nicer, because often I’m only interested in programs for a specific application, such as (in the past) [[Common Applications/Science#Electronics | Science#Electronics]], and [[Common Applications/Multimedia#GUI players | Multimedia#GUI players]] (audio). Even using the TOC, I think currently it’s too easy to get lost or overwhelmed. [[User:Vadmium|Vadmium]] 00:18, 26 January 2012 (EST).<br />
<br />
:I think the main problem here is that if I'm looking for a particular subcategory I have to guess under which main category it can be, while currently, with the comprehensive ToC, that task is easier. Possible compromise: maintain a "manual" Table of Contents in the top-level page, with links to the various subpages/subsections. Let's hear more opinions. -- [[User:Kynikos|Kynikos]] 07:53, 26 January 2012 (EST)<br />

::@Leocp1 What links are you talking about? Wiki links already should be covered by [[Template:Article_summary_wiki]]), among others I'd prefer to see only '''important''' ones (like links to software home page, documentation, own wiki etc) included included in the template. --[[User:AlexanderR|AlexanderR]] 19:11, 23 January 2012 (EST)<br />
:::I've written a summary in the subsection below and added some other ideas: currently I think solution 4 may be the tidiest and best looking, otherwise I'd try solution 1 as a second choice. Please add your opinions there so we can make a better decision.<br />
:::@AlexanderR We're talking about the See also links at the bottom of the article, not the links specific to each application, which should stay in the proper App template and/or the related wiki article (I'm not sure if that's what you meant).<br />
:::-- [[User:Kynikos|Kynikos]] 07:38, 24 January 2012 (EST)<br />

:::::Not sure if I'm on the same page as you, but many Wikipedia articles have 'External links' section at the bottom, below the references and above the 'Related articles' part.

== Order of things? ==<br />

Is there any special order to these lists?<br />

<br />
::Call it chronological? i.e. an order in which people (especially beginners) would think of setting things up - network, browser, communication, downloads, media etc.<br />
::The problem with alphabetical lists is that even if we decide on "correct" terms for things, some people will, i.e., look for 'console', and others for 'terminal'.<br />
::[[User:Idomeneo1|Idomeneo1]] ([[User talk:Idomeneo1|talk]]) 14:10, 21 January 2014 (UTC)<br />
<br />
:::Eheh a similar objection could be made for the "chronological" order, which, as I said, is subjective, e.g. some people may want to install messaging apps before p2p or vice versa. Maybe what you really mean is a "dependency" order, i.e. if in a group of sections there's one that lists applications (e.g. network managers) that may be necessary for applications in other groups to work, then put it at the top. I can agree with that, also because other sections like the various "Other" should instead better be kept at the bottom. All the in-between sections, though, should be sorted alphabetically: the problem of synonyms would affect any kind of odering we may choose, and in general it affects all kinds of word lists (e.g. dictionaries), so users are used to dealing with it.<br />

:I wouldn't really know what's best to do, but if the application is confirmed to be still working, ''keep''ing it in the list should be the default action until somebody proves that listing it is counterproductive in some way.

Some software (two examples below, I can add a few more when I have times) provide some set of scanner/camera frontend, image processing, document layout analysis, OCR frontend and document writer.

::Technically, yes. This ''is'' the list of applications, so why not? Xpra is a "screen for X". That way, the least vague thing to do would be to split terminal multiplexers into a multiplexers category and there would be two subcategories: terminal and X11. Xpra would, ''obviously'' be in X11.

== Add Org-mode as a markup language? ==<br />

Org-mode is a markup language, but it is tied to the Emacs text editor. Any editor can produce valid org markup, but at present, only Emacs can export that markup to pdf, .tex, html, etc. <br />

== Scope of the page ==<br />
<br />
It seems that this page is becoming a bloated index for all possible "lists" on the wiki, or maybe even the whole wiki itself. There are other pages to help users find what they are looking for, e.g. [[Table of contents]], [[General recommendations]] and of course the full-text search. Therefore I think that the [[List of applications]] should be a ''comprehensible'' list of the most common categories of application software and not a ''comprehensive'' list of everything. I believe that the index pages can have separate targets and cooperate with each other to provide a complete picture instead of overlapping and hindering readability by linking to each other.<br />
<br />
I propose the following:<br />
<br />
* remove [[List_of_applications/Workspace#Command_shells]] - one does not look for an alternative shell "just because", but to solve some specific problem or inconvenience, which is out of the reach of this page ([[General_recommendations#Console_improvements]] covers it quite nicely)<br />
* I do not consider the things linked from [[List_of_applications/Workspace#Bootsplash]] to be "applications" and would like it removed.

:1. Applications that require a LAMP stack, such as Blog engines, Cloud storage, and Content managers like Drupal and Wordpress see widespread use, and most were already listed here. The variety of server options ''that they require'' also belong here. Server apps should also be in their own section (and linked to, from the client section), because their purpose and implementation is distinct. And when you set up a server, it is useful to have a list of server apps. Users looking for clients apps are not going to be looking for server apps until they're setting up a server.<br />
:"I doubt it is useful for an average user" - what exactly is an "average user"? This is an opinion that is quite frankly not true.<br />
:Also, if some section seems incomplete, then improve it, instead of simply using its incompleteness as an argument for removing it.<br />
:2. The biggest bloat in this list are all the dead links.<br />
:3a. The [[Table of contents]] is a list of wiki pages. It does not include any apps that don't happen to have one, including ones that work out of the box and don't need one.<br />
:3b. If [[General recommendations]] were to take on the information in these lists - there are ''eight'' lists here - then ''that page'' would become bloated. It wouldn't be a bad idea in fact to link from General Recommendations to the relevant section in this list.<br />
:3c. You search when you already know exactly what you're looking for. Lists are for finding new apps you didn't know about.<br />
:4. Databases: ''all'' apps are "complex systems" in many ways. And there are several dbases to choose from.<br />
:5. I agree that basic things like core-utils should not be on this list. (However, Linux users in particular ''do'' explore alternatives "just because".)<br />
:6. I think a Bootsplash is still a workspace option and should be represented here. (I've never used one, but I think others would consider trying one if they come across the option.)<br />
:7. I think Accessibility should not be overlooked. Linking to an detailed article is fine.<br />
:8. I also seem to need to emphasize that I have not "bloated" this list, but am trying to make it more coherent.<br />

::Let's take it one at a time. It seems you want to take all applications which have something to do with a client-server model, split the server part away from the client's category and create one big category of these server things. Well, then for starters "Web Servers" is not the right name for it. But I'll dispute even the existence of such section on this page, regardless of its name, for two reasons:<br />
::# Selecting applications to set up a (web or whatever) server takes more then a short entry in a list. One needs to consider the concrete usecase and often even a combination of applications as a whole rather than each application separately for its purpose. Hence this topic belongs to the [[Server]] page, where more details can be provided. Of course this page could link to it.<br />
::# The current way is to split sections according to software categories (i.e. their purpose), not based on whether they require the LAMP stack, have to be run on server or simple desktop will suffice. I'd say this corresponds with how people search for software first they have a purpose, then they concern with what they need to run the software.<br />

<br />
:::A server is more than a LAMP stack - not all server apps used on the web require LAMP stacks.<br />
:::Users look for client apps and server apps for very different reasons.<br />
:::Also the [[Server]] page provides little guidance on selecting LAMP components, and none of the options provided on this list. Most apps can be used on a number of server/dbase combinations, and it's up to the user to settle on what works best for them, just as with any other application.<br />
:::--[[User:Idomeneo1|Idomeneo1]] ([[User talk:Idomeneo1|talk]]) 23:20, 3 March 2017 (UTC)<br />
<br />
::::Obviously various servers run all sorts of software, often even client software to communicate with other servers. The separation of software based on where it runs (server or desktop) is impossible, often it can be both. A "Servers" section that you propose would be a catch-all section which would evenutally become impossible to read and maintain. Categorization based on the software purpose is much more useful in my view.<br />
::::As for LAMP, I proposed to '''merge''' the [[List_of_applications/Internet#LAMP_stack]] section to the [[Server]] page, not to remove it without compensation.<br />

:::::Yes, you can run whatever apps you like on your box. If you're setting up a server you have different needs than if your just setting up a regular box. Someone looking for a chat app doesn't need to have chat servers listed, and a person setting up a server most likely already has their apps, and would like server apps in one place. If I, say, wanted chat apps and servers all listed together, I would just search for "chat" or "XMPP" in the pkg dbase. Lists like this should "add value" for the user over simple searches.<br />

=== Radical alternative ===<br />
<br />
Warning: extreme brainstorming, join at your own risk.<br />
<br />
I agree with Lahwaacz about the fact that this page is becoming bloated and overlapping with the other index pages. However I also think that the very existence of this article (and its subsections) encourages Idomeneo1's approach, and honestly I don't think it's Simple anymore to understand what to keep here and what not, what to interlink where and what not etc., any solution still looks a bit arbitrary to me.<br />
<br />
I was thinking, perhaps we could kill this page completely and merge the various sections in the appropriate Category pages, taking the chance to improve the [[Table of contents|Category tree]], possibly also creating empty categories if needed, which would function as placeholders in that case, or each Category could still contain a main section and some subsections. I think that our current [[Table of contents]] already has some resemblance with the ToC of this article, so that scope overlapping/duplication may be the root cause of the parent discussion. Categories can also have multiple parents, which would address the current problem of having to interlink sections of this article with each other. Another advantage is that users would get more used to look into the Category page of an article, not only to find related articles, but now also to find related software that may not have wiki articles. Another advantage is that when creating an article about a piece of software it's already clear where to categorize it.<br />
<br />
Disadvantages: we lose the ability to see all the applications in the same page. (and...?)<br />
<br />
Last thing, I think that this idea would look the best if the app lists were changed to tables, as we discussed a long time ago in [[Talk:List of games]] and now I tried in [[User:Kynikos/App]]. [[Template:App]] can be changed to create a table row very easily, but I'd also like to discuss restructuring it as shown at the bottom of [[User:Kynikos/App#Terminal emulators]], which IMO gives info less redundantly.<br />

:Currently we have a rule that if category A has a subcategory B, pages in B cannot be categorized also in A. I'd imagine that the application lists/tables would follow similar rule to avoid duplication, so we'd also lose the ability to see all applications in category A on the same page. Depending on how the actual categorization would look like, this might be important disadvantage - consider e.g. the subsections of [[List_of_applications#File_sharing]].<br />

::Personally I don't think that viewing the whole [[List of applications#File sharing]] section in the same page is so useful; seeing its section structure in the ToC is useful, but that would be preserved in the automated category tree. As I wrote, we could allow subsections in Category pages, for example to keep non-specific distinctions like console/graphical or client/server. We could also instruct toc.py to read section headings in Category pages and show them in the generated ToC (perhaps only under [[:Category:Applications]]). Finally, it wouldn't be a violation of the DRY principle if we also generated pages that collate the contents of some Categories and their descendants, of course protecting them from manual editing. — [[User:Kynikos|Kynikos]] ([[User talk:Kynikos|talk]]) 05:56, 6 March 2017 (UTC)<br />
<br />
:::On second thought, [[:Category:Applications]] currently has only 2 levels of subcategories so I think the problem mentioned above does not apply. If more levels appear in the future, I'd imagine it would be for a reason and even then it might not be so terrible. The parent tables or their captions might even contain a link to the subcategory tables to make them more visible instead of duplicating them. -- [[User:Lahwaacz|Lahwaacz]] ([[User talk:Lahwaacz|talk]]) 18:25, 8 March 2017 (UTC)<br />

:::On third thought, we might even start with splitting up this very page, i.e. do [[#Split up completely?]] + an autogenerated ToC list of sections on all subpages. -- [[User:Lahwaacz|Lahwaacz]] ([[User talk:Lahwaacz|talk]]) 18:33, 8 March 2017 (UTC)<br />
<br />
:I was actually thinking that for applications which have a wiki page, browsing [[:Category:Applications]] instead of this page should give basically the same results (maybe some small subsections are squashed together, but that's not a problem). To make things simple(r), we might just say that topics which have most pages outside of [[:Category:Applications]] don't belong here and should be linked externally. Usually such topics have an introduction page, such as [[Server]], [[Xorg]] or [[Desktop environments]]. There would be a huge problem with "Utilities" and "Security" though. Also this approach would probably not cut the bloat enough.<br />

<br />
::As I said, I think that trying to find a clear rule to define what belongs in this page or not is too hard, there are too many blurred cases, as also seen in the parent discussion. IMHO the bloat problem of this article can't be reduced to only some sections in [[List of applications/Workspace]]: I like your "I think that the List of applications should be a comprehensible list of the most common categories of application software and not a comprehensive list of everything", but to me "List of applications" practically does sound like "List of everything", which is why I say that the problem is the whole article itself. — [[User:Kynikos|Kynikos]] ([[User talk:Kynikos|talk]]) 15:19, 8 March 2017 (UTC)<br />
<br />
:::Well think that we can cut it in halves: I don't see many problems with [[List of applications/Internet]], [[List of applications/Multimedia]], [[List of applications/Documents]] and [[List of applications/Science]] - they are all with individual sections or even list entries, but the overall scope is clear. On the other hand, most of the "applications" listed on the remaining pages, [[List of applications/Workspace]], [[List of applications/Utilities]], [[List of applications/Security]] and [[List of applications/Other]], fall simply under "Utilities". From what the current page looks like, I think it's roughly like "Desktop utilities", "System administration utilities", "Security utilities" and (shrugs) "Other utilities", but there are many overlaps so it's probably not very useful to make this differentiation and it would be better to call them just "Utilities". Btw. I think that the category tree has generally the same problem with arbitrary decisions: somehow I don't see a common idea behind [[:Category:Command shells]] under [[:Category:Applications]] and [[:Category:Desktop environments]] under [[:Category:System administration]].

:The category tree / table of contents lists wiki pages, not apps - an app would have to have a special wiki page just to be mentioned, and even then, there is old cruft in the wiki pages as well. And that is ''much'' harder to clean up than a list.<br />

:::I like tables, especially sortable ones, though I'm not sure how they simplify things.<br />
:::An option could be to break the lists down into smaller sections, which could then be included in their respective wiki pages, as well as in a master list-of-apps page.<br />
:::An issue I see with the current [[Table of Contents]] is that it is entirely manually structured - no headings. How is a category tree "automated"? Does this automation preserve included lists/tables/cross-links?<br />

<br />
::::Tables in this case more than simplifying would reduce bloat, since many entries would be reduced to one line (at least on wide screens), and the various fields (name, description, website, packages) would be neatly and rationally separated, making it much easier to scan for the needed info. Tables are also a more standard and often preferred way to list and compare applications e.g. on Wikipedia.<br />
::::About breaking the lists further and merging them into specific wiki pages, I'd be in favor if you want to discuss specific cases. However what is merged into other articles can't be duplicated in a "master list-of-apps page".<br />

:::::Your [[User:Kynikos/App]] trial is a great approach, but I'm unconvinced tables being a good format for this information. If you look at the sections, each table has different column widths (for a reason, but not neat). There are too many other variances: the current template app allows for short or longer descriptions, a single bot comment may shift column width for a whole table, etc. Worst: Even on a wide screen (which can't be a precondition in my view) table data would always break URLs, which is neither readable nor a neat, positive presentation. --[[User:Indigo|Indigo]] ([[User talk:Indigo|talk]]) 21:07, 8 March 2017 (UTC)<br />

:::::What I was suggesting was to break these lists up further into smaller "include" pages, such as Browsers, Window managers, File managers, etc etc, on separate, single "include" pages that could be simply "included" on the respective wiki pages, as well as the category pages, as well as the list of apps. This would provide simplicity, visibility, and coherence, so a whole bunch of app lists don't need to be maintained separately.<br />

=== Split up completely? ===<br />
Just wondering if it would be better to completely split the article up into separate articles, rather than transcluding everything back in as templates. Perhaps just include links and a brief summary of each category in the top-level page, maybe something along the lines of:<br />
<br />
{{META Box | | This page has various categories of programs and points to lists of programs in those categories. It is a useful starting point for finding a program for a specific application. [Introduce console versus graphical.]<br />
<br />
'''[[Common Applications/Internet | Internet]]''' including network configuration, and clients or browsers for web sites, FTP, file sharing, chat and email messaging, web feeds, and microblogging<br />
<br />
'''[[Common Applications/Multimedia | Multimedia]]''' including viewers, players and editors for raster, vector, 3D, CAD, audio and video, GUI capture, systems for accessing audio devices, audio CD rippers, and e-book programs.<br />
<br />
'''[[Common Applications/Utilities | Utilities]]''', which covers package management, file managers including space usage, compression and merge tools, optical disc burning, clipboards, GUI taskbars.<br />
<br />
'''[[Common Applications/Documents | Documents]]''': readers for printable files like PDFs, office suites, word processors, spreadsheets, text search, OCR<br />
<br />
'''[[Common Applications/Security | Security]]''': firewalls; file, network and log monitoring, scanning and analysis; backup<br />
<br />
'''[[Common Applications/Games | Games]]''': native and emulators<br />
<br />
'''[[Common Applications/Science | Science]]''': calculators, visualisation, design, programming environments and other tools for maths, chemistry, biology, astronomy, electronics and physics<br />
<br />
'''[[Common Applications/Other | Other]]''': note taking and scheduling; translation; desktop environments and window managers; terminals; OS monitors; text editors<br />
<br />
'''See also''' [other general lists of programs]}}<br />
<br />

== Multi-Protocol Downloader section ==<br />

Similarly to command shells, a downloader section is missing. Here we find good the same one: [[pyLoad#Alternatives]] [[JDownloader#Alternatives]].<br />
Plus aria2, curl, wget, kget should be added. Is it ok? Could you point me more downloaders?<br />
As kget and aria2 would be doubled we can do a "Multi-Protocol Downloader" section like [[List_of_Applications#Multi-Protocol Clients]] and delete original entries liting supported protocols. -- [[User:Flu|Flu]] ([[User talk:Flu|talk]]) 16:37, 8 September 2013 (UTC)<br />

== Order of things? ==<br />

Is there any special order to these lists?<br />

<br />
::Call it chronological? i.e. an order in which people (especially beginners) would think of setting things up - network, browser, communication, downloads, media etc.<br />
::The problem with alphabetical lists is that even if we decide on "correct" terms for things, some people will, i.e., look for 'console', and others for 'terminal'.<br />

<br />
:::Eheh a similar objection could be made for the "chronological" order, which, as I said, is subjective, e.g. some people may want to install messaging apps before p2p or vice versa. Maybe what you really mean is a "dependency" order, i.e. if in a group of sections there's one that lists applications (e.g. network managers) that may be necessary for applications in other groups to work, then put it at the top. I can agree with that, also because other sections like the various "Other" should instead better be kept at the bottom. All the in-between sections, though, should be sorted alphabetically: the problem of synonyms would affect any kind of odering we may choose, and in general it affects all kinds of word lists (e.g. dictionaries), so users are used to dealing with it.<br />

Some software (two examples below, I can add a few more when I have times) provide some set of scanner/camera frontend, image processing, document layout analysis, OCR frontend and document writer.

== Scope of the page ==<br />
<br />
It seems that this page is becoming a bloated index for all possible "lists" on the wiki, or maybe even the whole wiki itself. There are other pages to help users find what they are looking for, e.g. [[Table of contents]], [[General recommendations]] and of course the full-text search. Therefore I think that the [[List of applications]] should be a ''comprehensible'' list of the most common categories of application software and not a ''comprehensive'' list of everything. I believe that the index pages can have separate targets and cooperate with each other to provide a complete picture instead of overlapping and hindering readability by linking to each other.<br />
<br />
I propose the following:<br />
<br />
* remove [[List_of_applications/Workspace#Command_shells]] - one does not look for an alternative shell "just because", but to solve some specific problem or inconvenience, which is out of the reach of this page ([[General_recommendations#Console_improvements]] covers it quite nicely)<br />
* I do not consider the things linked from [[List_of_applications/Workspace#Bootsplash]] to be "applications" and would like it removed. An explicit link to [[:Category:Bootsplash]] could be added to [[General_recommendations#Appearance]], although it already links to its parent category: [[:Category:Eye candy]].<br />
* remove [[List_of_applications/Workspace#Display_managers]], [[List_of_applications/Workspace#Desktop_environments]], [[List_of_applications/Workspace#Window_managers]] and [[List_of_applications/Workspace#Composite_managers]] - the topic is much better covered in [[General_recommendations#Graphical_user_interface]] (the two packages from [[List_of_applications/Workspace#Window_managers]] could be moved to [[General_recommendations#Console_improvements]])<br />
* remove [[List_of_applications/Workspace#Accessibility]] - it is a topic of its own, not just about selecting applications<br />
* remove [[List_of_applications/Utilities#Databases]] - they are certainly not utilities (so much less applications), but complex systems consisting of many deamons, utilities and interfaces designed to work together<br />
* remove the [[List_of_applications/Internet#Web_Servers]] section:<br />
** merge [[List_of_applications/Internet#LAMP_stack]] to [[Server#LAMP]] - I doubt it is useful for an average user<br />
** remove [[List_of_applications/Internet#Wiki_engines]] - it is very incomplete and like above, not useful<br />
** move [[List_of_applications/Internet#Content_management.2C_social_networks.2C_blog_publishers]] back to [[List_of_applications/Internet#Blog_engines]]<br />
** move [[List_of_applications/Internet#Cloud_storage_servers]] under [[List_of_applications/Internet#File_sharing]]<br />

:1. Applications that require a LAMP stack, such as Blog engines, Cloud storage, and Content managers like Drupal and Wordpress see widespread use, and most were already listed here. The variety of server options ''that they require'' also belong here. Server apps should also be in their own section (and linked to, from the client section), because their purpose and implementation is distinct. And when you set up a server, it is useful to have a list of server apps. Users looking for clients apps are not going to be looking for server apps until they're setting up a server.<br />
:"I doubt it is useful for an average user" - what exactly is an "average user"? This is an opinion that is quite frankly not true.<br />
:Also, if some section seems incomplete, then improve it, instead of simply using its incompleteness as an argument for removing it.<br />
:2. The biggest bloat in this list are all the dead links.<br />
:3a. The [[Table of contents]] is a list of wiki pages. It does not include any apps that don't happen to have one, including ones that work out of the box and don't need one.<br />
:3b. If [[General recommendations]] were to take on the information in these lists - there are ''eight'' lists here - then ''that page'' would become bloated. It wouldn't be a bad idea in fact to link from General Recommendations to the relevant section in this list.<br />
:3c. You search when you already know exactly what you're looking for. Lists are for finding new apps you didn't know about.<br />
:4. Databases: ''all'' apps are "complex systems" in many ways. And there are several dbases to choose from.<br />
:5. I agree that basic things like core-utils should not be on this list. (However, Linux users in particular ''do'' explore alternatives "just because".)<br />
:6. I think a Bootsplash is still a workspace option and should be represented here. (I've never used one, but I think others would consider trying one if they come across the option.)<br />
:7. I think Accessibility should not be overlooked. Linking to an detailed article is fine.<br />
:8. I also seem to need to emphasize that I have not "bloated" this list, but am trying to make it more coherent.<br />

::Let's take it one at a time. It seems you want to take all applications which have something to do with a client-server model, split the server part away from the client's category and create one big category of these server things. Well, then for starters "Web Servers" is not the right name for it. But I'll dispute even the existence of such section on this page, regardless of its name, for two reasons:<br />
::# Selecting applications to set up a (web or whatever) server takes more then a short entry in a list. One needs to consider the concrete usecase and often even a combination of applications as a whole rather than each application separately for its purpose. Hence this topic belongs to the [[Server]] page, where more details can be provided. Of course this page could link to it.<br />
::# The current way is to split sections according to software categories (i.e. their purpose), not based on whether they require the LAMP stack, have to be run on server or simple desktop will suffice.

:::Also the [[Server]] page provides little guidance on selecting LAMP components, and none of the options provided on this list. Most apps can be used on a number of server/dbase combinations, and it's up to the user to settle on what works best for them, just as with any other application.<br />

::::Obviously various servers run all sorts of software, often even client software to communicate with other servers. The separation of software based on where it runs (server or desktop) is impossible, often it can be both.

Categorization based on the software purpose is much more useful in my view.<br />

Someone looking for a chat app doesn't need to have chat servers listed, and a person setting up a server most likely already has their apps, and would like server apps in one place. If I, say, wanted chat apps and servers all listed together, I would just search for "chat" or "XMPP" in the pkg dbase. Lists like this should "add value" for the user over simple searches.<br />

=== Radical alternative ===<br />
<br />
Warning: extreme brainstorming, join at your own risk.<br />
<br />
I agree with Lahwaacz about the fact that this page is becoming bloated and overlapping with the other index pages. However I also think that the very existence of this article (and its subsections) encourages Idomeneo1's approach, and honestly I don't think it's Simple anymore to understand what to keep here and what not, what to interlink where and what not etc., any solution still looks a bit arbitrary to me.<br />
<br />
I was thinking, perhaps we could kill this page completely and merge the various sections in the appropriate Category pages, taking the chance to improve the [[Table of contents|Category tree]], possibly also creating empty categories if needed, which would function as placeholders in that case, or each Category could still contain a main section and some subsections. I think that our current [[Table of contents]] already has some resemblance with the ToC of this article, so that scope overlapping/duplication may be the root cause of the parent discussion. Categories can also have multiple parents, which would address the current problem of having to interlink sections of this article with each other. Another advantage is that users would get more used to look into the Category page of an article, not only to find related articles, but now also to find related software that may not have wiki articles. Another advantage is that when creating an article about a piece of software it's already clear where to categorize it.<br />
<br />
Disadvantages: we lose the ability to see all the applications in the same page. (and...?)<br />
<br />
Last thing, I think that this idea would look the best if the app lists were changed to tables, as we discussed a long time ago in [[Talk:List of games]] and now I tried in [[User:Kynikos/App]]. [[Template:App]] can be changed to create a table row very easily, but I'd also like to discuss restructuring it as shown at the bottom of [[User:Kynikos/App#Terminal emulators]], which IMO gives info less redundantly.<br />
<br />
Enough :) — [[User:Kynikos|Kynikos]] ([[User talk:Kynikos|talk]]) 18:12, 5 March 2017 (UTC)<br />
<br />
:Currently we have a rule that if category A has a subcategory B, pages in B cannot be categorized also in A. I'd imagine that the application lists/tables would follow similar rule to avoid duplication, so we'd also lose the ability to see all applications in category A on the same page. Depending on how the actual categorization would look like, this might be important disadvantage - consider e.g. the subsections of [[List_of_applications#File_sharing]].<br />
:I was actually thinking that for applications which have a wiki page, browsing [[:Category:Applications]] instead of this page should give basically the same results (maybe some small subsections are squashed together, but that's not a problem). To make things simple(r), we might just say that topics which have most pages outside of [[:Category:Applications]] don't belong here and should be linked externally. Usually such topics have an introduction page, such as [[Server]], [[Xorg]] or [[Desktop environments]]. There would be a huge problem with "Utilities" and "Security" though. Also this approach would probably not cut the bloat enough.<br />

::Personally I don't think that viewing the whole [[List of applications#File sharing]] section in the same page is so useful; seeing its section structure in the ToC is useful, but that would be preserved in the automated category tree. As I wrote, we could allow subsections in Category pages, for example to keep non-specific distinctions like console/graphical or client/server. We could also instruct toc.py to read section headings in Category pages and show them in the generated ToC (perhaps only under [[:Category:Applications]]).

I'm also neutral about merging [[Optical Character Recognition]] there: actually that article doesn't contain anything except for a short list of applications, so it could indeed be merged.<br />

I have submitted a AUR package for {{AUR|sendanywhere}}, a cross-platform p2p file sharing utility (similar to Pushbullet, but with standalone software client). I am not sure under which section I should include it. It is definitely not FTP based or bittorrent based. Should it go under '''Downloaders''' or '''Communications'''; also, shall I start a new subsection, maybe called '''p2p file sharing/pushing'''?

=== Split up completely? ===<br />
Just wondering if it would be better to completely split the article up into separate articles, rather than transcluding everything back in as templates. Perhaps just include links and a brief summary of each category in the top-level page, maybe something along the lines of:<br />
<br />
{{META Box | | This page has various categories of programs and points to lists of programs in those categories. It is a useful starting point for finding a program for a specific application. [Introduce console versus graphical.]<br />
<br />
'''[[Common Applications/Internet | Internet]]''' including network configuration, and clients or browsers for web sites, FTP, file sharing, chat and email messaging, web feeds, and microblogging<br />
<br />
'''[[Common Applications/Multimedia | Multimedia]]''' including viewers, players and editors for raster, vector, 3D, CAD, audio and video, GUI capture, systems for accessing audio devices, audio CD rippers, and e-book programs.<br />
<br />
'''[[Common Applications/Utilities | Utilities]]''', which covers package management, file managers including space usage, compression and merge tools, optical disc burning, clipboards, GUI taskbars.<br />
<br />
'''[[Common Applications/Documents | Documents]]''': readers for printable files like PDFs, office suites, word processors, spreadsheets, text search, OCR<br />
<br />
'''[[Common Applications/Security | Security]]''': firewalls; file, network and log monitoring, scanning and analysis; backup<br />
<br />
'''[[Common Applications/Games | Games]]''': native and emulators<br />
<br />
'''[[Common Applications/Science | Science]]''': calculators, visualisation, design, programming environments and other tools for maths, chemistry, biology, astronomy, electronics and physics<br />
<br />
'''[[Common Applications/Other | Other]]''': note taking and scheduling; translation; desktop environments and window managers; terminals; OS monitors; text editors<br />
<br />
'''See also''' [other general lists of programs]}}<br />
<br />
Smaller individual pages would be nicer, because often I’m only interested in programs for a specific application, such as (in the past) [[Common Applications/Science#Electronics | Science#Electronics]], and [[Common Applications/Multimedia#GUI players | Multimedia#GUI players]] (audio). Even using the TOC, I think currently it’s too easy to get lost or overwhelmed. [[User:Vadmium|Vadmium]] 00:18, 26 January 2012 (EST).<br />
<br />
:I think the main problem here is that if I'm looking for a particular subcategory I have to guess under which main category it can be, while currently, with the comprehensive ToC, that task is easier. Possible compromise: maintain a "manual" Table of Contents in the top-level page, with links to the various subpages/subsections. Let's hear more opinions. -- [[User:Kynikos|Kynikos]] 07:53, 26 January 2012 (EST)<br />

==See also visibility==<br />

:Its probably not in good style, but could we add an [[Writing Article Overviews| article overview]], and have an article summary section containing the see also links?--[[User:Leocp1|Leocp1]] 16:59, 23 January 2012 (EST)<br />
::@Leocp1 What links are you talking about? Wiki links already should be covered by [[Template:Article_summary_wiki]]), among others I'd prefer to see only '''important''' ones (like links to software home page, documentation, own wiki etc) included included in the template. --[[User:AlexanderR|AlexanderR]] 19:11, 23 January 2012 (EST)<br />
:::I've written a summary in the subsection below and added some other ideas: currently I think solution 4 may be the tidiest and best looking, otherwise I'd try solution 1 as a second choice. Please add your opinions there so we can make a better decision.<br />
:::@AlexanderR We're talking about the See also links at the bottom of the article, not the links specific to each application, which should stay in the proper App template and/or the related wiki article (I'm not sure if that's what you meant).<br />
:::-- [[User:Kynikos|Kynikos]] 07:38, 24 January 2012 (EST)<br />
::::Who in the world uses this links at all? Wikipedia does not have any links at the bottom of articles except proofs of written or ones in categories templates. We do not provide proofs.. Or do we? And it would be great to see statistics of clicks on such links... --[[User:AlexanderR|AlexanderR]] 08:01, 24 January 2012 (EST)<br />
:::::Not sure if I'm on the same page as you, but many Wikipedia articles have 'External links' section at the bottom, below the references and above the 'Related articles' part.

== Order of things? ==<br />
<br />
Is there any special order to these lists?<br />

For instance, under "Internet" it would seem more intuitive to begin with "Network Managers", then "Browsers", then a section for "Downloaders". and so on.<br />

<br />
::Call it chronological? i.e. an order in which people (especially beginners) would think of setting things up - network, browser, communication, downloads, media etc.<br />
::The problem with alphabetical lists is that even if we decide on "correct" terms for things, some people will, i.e., look for 'console', and others for 'terminal'.<br />
::[[User:Idomeneo1|Idomeneo1]] ([[User talk:Idomeneo1|talk]]) 14:10, 21 January 2014 (UTC)<br />
<br />
:::Eheh a similar objection could be made for the "chronological" order, which, as I said, is subjective, e.g. some people may want to install messaging apps before p2p or vice versa. Maybe what you really mean is a "dependency" order, i.e. if in a group of sections there's one that lists applications (e.g. network managers) that may be necessary for applications in other groups to work, then put it at the top. I can agree with that, also because other sections like the various "Other" should instead better be kept at the bottom. All the in-between sections, though, should be sorted alphabetically: the problem of synonyms would affect any kind of odering we may choose, and in general it affects all kinds of word lists (e.g. dictionaries), so users are used to dealing with it.<br />

:I wouldn't really know what's best to do, but if the application is confirmed to be still working, ''keep''ing it in the list should be the default action until somebody proves that listing it is counterproductive in some way.

== Where should "full-stack" scanning software go? ==<br />

Some software (two examples below, I can add a few more when I have times) provide some set of scanner/camera frontend, image processing, document layout analysis, OCR frontend and document writer.

== Scope of the page ==<br />
<br />
It seems that this page is becoming a bloated index for all possible "lists" on the wiki, or maybe even the whole wiki itself. There are other pages to help users find what they are looking for, e.g. [[Table of contents]], [[General recommendations]] and of course the full-text search. Therefore I think that the [[List of applications]] should be a ''comprehensible'' list of the most common categories of application software and not a ''comprehensive'' list of everything. I believe that the index pages can have separate targets and cooperate with each other to provide a complete picture instead of overlapping and hindering readability by linking to each other.<br />
<br />
I propose the following:<br />
<br />
* remove [[List_of_applications/Workspace#Command_shells]] - one does not look for an alternative shell "just because", but to solve some specific problem or inconvenience, which is out of the reach of this page ([[General_recommendations#Console_improvements]] covers it quite nicely)<br />
* I do not consider the things linked from [[List_of_applications/Workspace#Bootsplash]] to be "applications" and would like it removed. An explicit link to [[:Category:Bootsplash]] could be added to [[General_recommendations#Appearance]], although it already links to its parent category: [[:Category:Eye candy]].<br />
* remove [[List_of_applications/Workspace#Display_managers]], [[List_of_applications/Workspace#Desktop_environments]], [[List_of_applications/Workspace#Window_managers]] and [[List_of_applications/Workspace#Composite_managers]] - the topic is much better covered in [[General_recommendations#Graphical_user_interface]] (the two packages from [[List_of_applications/Workspace#Window_managers]] could be moved to [[General_recommendations#Console_improvements]])<br />
* remove [[List_of_applications/Workspace#Accessibility]] - it is a topic of its own, not just about selecting applications<br />
* remove [[List_of_applications/Utilities#Databases]] - they are certainly not utilities (so much less applications), but complex systems consisting of many deamons, utilities and interfaces designed to work together<br />
* remove the [[List_of_applications/Internet#Web_Servers]] section:<br />
** merge [[List_of_applications/Internet#LAMP_stack]] to [[Server#LAMP]] - I doubt it is useful for an average user<br />
** remove [[List_of_applications/Internet#Wiki_engines]] - it is very incomplete and like above, not useful<br />
** move [[List_of_applications/Internet#Content_management.2C_social_networks.2C_blog_publishers]] back to [[List_of_applications/Internet#Blog_engines]]<br />
** move [[List_of_applications/Internet#Cloud_storage_servers]] under [[List_of_applications/Internet#File_sharing]]<br />
<br />
-- [[User:Lahwaacz|Lahwaacz]] ([[User talk:Lahwaacz|talk]]) 14:44, 2 March 2017 (UTC)<br />
<br />
<br />
:1. Applications that require a LAMP stack, such as Blog engines, Cloud storage, and Content managers like Drupal and Wordpress see widespread use, and most were already listed here. The variety of server options ''that they require'' also belong here. Server apps should also be in their own section (and linked to, from the client section), because their purpose and implementation is distinct. And when you set up a server, it is useful to have a list of server apps. Users looking for clients apps are not going to be looking for server apps until they're setting up a server.<br />
:"I doubt it is useful for an average user" - what exactly is an "average user"? This is an opinion that is quite frankly not true.<br />
:Also, if some section seems incomplete, then improve it, instead of simply using its incompleteness as an argument for removing it.<br />
:2. The biggest bloat in this list are all the dead links.<br />
:3a. The [[Table of contents]] is a list of wiki pages. It does not include any apps that don't happen to have one, including ones that work out of the box and don't need one.<br />
:3b. If [[General recommendations]] were to take on the information in these lists - there are ''eight'' lists here - then ''that page'' would become bloated. It wouldn't be a bad idea in fact to link from General Recommendations to the relevant section in this list.<br />
:3c. You search when you already know exactly what you're looking for. Lists are for finding new apps you didn't know about.<br />
:4. Databases: ''all'' apps are "complex systems" in many ways. And there are several dbases to choose from.<br />
:5. I agree that basic things like core-utils should not be on this list. (However, Linux users in particular ''do'' explore alternatives "just because".)<br />

::Let's take it one at a time. It seems you want to take all applications which have something to do with a client-server model, split the server part away from the client's category and create one big category of these server things. Well, then for starters "Web Servers" is not the right name for it. But I'll dispute even the existence of such section on this page, regardless of its name, for two reasons:<br />
::# Selecting applications to set up a (web or whatever) server takes more then a short entry in a list. One needs to consider the concrete usecase and often even a combination of applications as a whole rather than each application separately for its purpose. Hence this topic belongs to the [[Server]] page, where more details can be provided. Of course this page could link to it.<br />
::# The current way is to split sections according to software categories (i.e. their purpose), not based on whether they require the LAMP stack, have to be run on server or simple desktop will suffice. I'd say this corresponds with how people search for software first they have a purpose, then they concern with what they need to run the software.<br />
::-- [[User:Lahwaacz|Lahwaacz]] ([[User talk:Lahwaacz|talk]]) 10:02, 3 March 2017 (UTC)<br />
<br />
:::A server is more than a LAMP stack - not all server apps used on the web require LAMP stacks.<br />
:::Users look for client apps and server apps for very different reasons.<br />
:::Also the [[Server]] page provides little guidance on selecting LAMP components, and none of the options provided on this list. Most apps can be used on a number of server/dbase combinations, and it's up to the user to settle on what works best for them, just as with any other application.<br />
:::--[[User:Idomeneo1|Idomeneo1]] ([[User talk:Idomeneo1|talk]]) 23:20, 3 March 2017 (UTC)<br />
<br />
::::Obviously various servers run all sorts of software, often even client software to communicate with other servers. The separation of software based on where it runs (server or desktop) is impossible, often it can be both. A "Servers" section that you propose would be a catch-all section which would evenutally become impossible to read and maintain. Categorization based on the software purpose is much more useful in my view.<br />
::::As for LAMP, I proposed to '''merge''' the [[List_of_applications/Internet#LAMP_stack]] section to the [[Server]] page, not to remove it without compensation.<br />

:::::Yes, you can run whatever apps you like on your box. If you're setting up a server you have different needs than if your just setting up a regular box. Someone looking for a chat app doesn't need to have chat servers listed, and a person setting up a server most likely already has their apps, and would like server apps in one place. If I, say, wanted chat apps and servers all listed together, I would just search for "chat" or "XMPP" in the pkg dbase. Lists like this should "add value" for the user over simple searches.<br />

=== Radical alternative ===<br />
<br />
Warning: extreme brainstorming, join at your own risk.<br />
<br />
I agree with Lahwaacz about the fact that this page is becoming bloated and overlapping with the other index pages. However I also think that the very existence of this article (and its subsections) encourages Idomeneo1's approach, and honestly I don't think it's Simple anymore to understand what to keep here and what not, what to interlink where and what not etc., any solution still looks a bit arbitrary to me.<br />
<br />
I was thinking, perhaps we could kill this page completely and merge the various sections in the appropriate Category pages, taking the chance to improve the [[Table of contents|Category tree]], possibly also creating empty categories if needed, which would function as placeholders in that case, or each Category could still contain a main section and some subsections. I think that our current [[Table of contents]] already has some resemblance with the ToC of this article, so that scope overlapping/duplication may be the root cause of the parent discussion. Categories can also have multiple parents, which would address the current problem of having to interlink sections of this article with each other. Another advantage is that users would get more used to look into the Category page of an article, not only to find related articles, but now also to find related software that may not have wiki articles. Another advantage is that when creating an article about a piece of software it's already clear where to categorize it.<br />
<br />
Disadvantages: we lose the ability to see all the applications in the same page. (and...?)<br />
<br />
Last thing, I think that this idea would look the best if the app lists were changed to tables, as we discussed a long time ago in [[Talk:List of games]] and now I tried in [[User:Kynikos/App]]. [[Template:App]] can be changed to create a table row very easily, but I'd also like to discuss restructuring it as shown at the bottom of [[User:Kynikos/App#Terminal emulators]], which IMO gives info less redundantly.<br />
<br />

<br />
:Currently we have a rule that if category A has a subcategory B, pages in B cannot be categorized also in A. I'd imagine that the application lists/tables would follow similar rule to avoid duplication, so we'd also lose the ability to see all applications in category A on the same page. Depending on how the actual categorization would look like, this might be important disadvantage - consider e.g. the subsections of [[List_of_applications#File_sharing]].<br />
:I was actually thinking that for applications which have a wiki page, browsing [[:Category:Applications]] instead of this page should give basically the same results (maybe some small subsections are squashed together, but that's not a problem). To make things simple(r), we might just say that topics which have most pages outside of [[:Category:Applications]] don't belong here and should be linked externally. Usually such topics have an introduction page, such as [[Server]], [[Xorg]] or [[Desktop environments]]. There would be a huge problem with "Utilities" and "Security" though. Also this approach would probably not cut the bloat enough.<br />

::Personally I don't think that viewing the whole [[List of applications#File sharing]] section in the same page is so useful; seeing its section structure in the ToC is useful, but that would be preserved in the automated category tree. As I wrote, we could allow subsections in Category pages, for example to keep non-specific distinctions like console/graphical or client/server. We could also instruct toc.py to read section headings in Category pages and show them in the generated ToC (perhaps only under [[:Category:Applications]]). Finally, it wouldn't be a violation of the DRY principle if we also generated pages that collate the contents of some Categories and their descendants, of course protecting them from manual editing. — [[User:Kynikos|Kynikos]] ([[User talk:Kynikos|talk]]) 05:56, 6 March 2017 (UTC)<br />

:The category tree / table of contents lists wiki pages, not apps - an app would have to have a special wiki page just to be mentioned, and even then, there is old cruft in the wiki pages as well. And that is ''much'' harder to clean up than a list.<br />

<br />
:Eh I'm afraid we'll just have to establish a convention: I'd say Burning tools in Multimedia and Screen Capture in Utilities? Let's wait for more opinions. -- [[User:Kynikos|Kynikos]] 07:53, 17 January 2012 (EST)<br />
<br />
::As I see, '''CD/DVD Burning Tools''' are already a part of '''Multimedia'''. '''Screen Capture''', I think, must be in '''Utilities'''.<br />
::And there's another question from russian users. '''OCR software''' isn't a reader or viewer, so it must be before or after '''1.9 Note taking organizers''' with corresponding number '''1.9''' or '''1.10'''<br />

<br />
:::Um... "Utilities" is practically a default category for applications that don't fit anywhere else: since "Screen capture" is kind of related to "Multimedia", it would probably be better to leave it there (thus changing the opinion I expressed above, I think I'm allowed, after more than 2 years :P ).<br />
:::I'm quite neutral about moving "OCR software" in the tree: it is related to "Scans", but maybe not so closely.

=== Split up completely? ===<br />
Just wondering if it would be better to completely split the article up into separate articles, rather than transcluding everything back in as templates. Perhaps just include links and a brief summary of each category in the top-level page, maybe something along the lines of:<br />
<br />
{{META Box | | This page has various categories of programs and points to lists of programs in those categories. It is a useful starting point for finding a program for a specific application. [Introduce console versus graphical.]<br />
<br />
'''[[Common Applications/Internet | Internet]]''' including network configuration, and clients or browsers for web sites, FTP, file sharing, chat and email messaging, web feeds, and microblogging<br />
<br />
'''[[Common Applications/Multimedia | Multimedia]]''' including viewers, players and editors for raster, vector, 3D, CAD, audio and video, GUI capture, systems for accessing audio devices, audio CD rippers, and e-book programs.<br />
<br />
'''[[Common Applications/Utilities | Utilities]]''', which covers package management, file managers including space usage, compression and merge tools, optical disc burning, clipboards, GUI taskbars.<br />
<br />
'''[[Common Applications/Documents | Documents]]''': readers for printable files like PDFs, office suites, word processors, spreadsheets, text search, OCR<br />
<br />
'''[[Common Applications/Security | Security]]''': firewalls; file, network and log monitoring, scanning and analysis; backup<br />
<br />
'''[[Common Applications/Games | Games]]''': native and emulators<br />
<br />
'''[[Common Applications/Science | Science]]''': calculators, visualisation, design, programming environments and other tools for maths, chemistry, biology, astronomy, electronics and physics<br />
<br />
'''[[Common Applications/Other | Other]]''': note taking and scheduling; translation; desktop environments and window managers; terminals; OS monitors; text editors<br />
<br />
'''See also''' [other general lists of programs]}}<br />
<br />
Smaller individual pages would be nicer, because often I’m only interested in programs for a specific application, such as (in the past) [[Common Applications/Science#Electronics | Science#Electronics]], and [[Common Applications/Multimedia#GUI players | Multimedia#GUI players]] (audio).

:I think the main problem here is that if I'm looking for a particular subcategory I have to guess under which main category it can be, while currently, with the comprehensive ToC, that task is easier.

:::Eheh a similar objection could be made for the "chronological" order, which, as I said, is subjective, e.g. some people may want to install messaging apps before p2p or vice versa. Maybe what you really mean is a "dependency" order, i.e. if in a group of sections there's one that lists applications (e.g. network managers) that may be necessary for applications in other groups to work, then put it at the top. I can agree with that, also because other sections like the various "Other" should instead better be kept at the bottom. All the in-between sections, though, should be sorted alphabetically: the problem of synonyms would affect any kind of odering we may choose, and in general it affects all kinds of word lists (e.g. dictionaries), so users are used to dealing with it.<br />

== What is Xpra, really? ==<br />

Where should [[Xpra]] go? Technically, remote desktop may be applicable, but it's not limited to remote stuff. You can run<br />
it locally on another X display.<br />
<br />
Technically, all Xpra is is some persistent X sessions that you can attach to and detach from at any time. It's not ''really''<br />
a remote desktop thing.<br />

::Technically, yes. This ''is'' the list of applications, so why not? Xpra is a "screen for X". That way, the least vague thing to do would be to split terminal multiplexers into a multiplexers category and there would be two subcategories: terminal and X11. Xpra would, ''obviously'' be in X11. I say least vague, since screen is a multiplexer, yet Xpra isn't. The only thing it has in common with screen is the persistent sessions.

== Add Org-mode as a markup language? ==<br />
<br />
Org-mode is a markup language, but it is tied to the Emacs text editor. Any editor can produce valid org markup, but at present, only Emacs can export that markup to pdf, .tex, html, etc. <br />
<br />
Org-mode is such a great markup language, but I wonder if being tied to the Emacs means we should omit it. What do ya'll think?<br />

== Scope of the page ==<br />
<br />
It seems that this page is becoming a bloated index for all possible "lists" on the wiki, or maybe even the whole wiki itself. There are other pages to help users find what they are looking for, e.g. [[Table of contents]], [[General recommendations]] and of course the full-text search. Therefore I think that the [[List of applications]] should be a ''comprehensible'' list of the most common categories of application software and not a ''comprehensive'' list of everything. I believe that the index pages can have separate targets and cooperate with each other to provide a complete picture instead of overlapping and hindering readability by linking to each other.<br />
<br />
I propose the following:<br />
<br />
* remove [[List_of_applications/Workspace#Command_shells]] - one does not look for an alternative shell "just because", but to solve some specific problem or inconvenience, which is out of the reach of this page ([[General_recommendations#Console_improvements]] covers it quite nicely)<br />
* I do not consider the things linked from [[List_of_applications/Workspace#Bootsplash]] to be "applications" and would like it removed. An explicit link to [[:Category:Bootsplash]] could be added to [[General_recommendations#Appearance]], although it already links to its parent category: [[:Category:Eye candy]].<br />
* remove [[List_of_applications/Workspace#Display_managers]], [[List_of_applications/Workspace#Desktop_environments]], [[List_of_applications/Workspace#Window_managers]] and [[List_of_applications/Workspace#Composite_managers]] - the topic is much better covered in [[General_recommendations#Graphical_user_interface]] (the two packages from [[List_of_applications/Workspace#Window_managers]] could be moved to [[General_recommendations#Console_improvements]])<br />
* remove [[List_of_applications/Workspace#Accessibility]] - it is a topic of its own, not just about selecting applications<br />
* remove [[List_of_applications/Utilities#Databases]] - they are certainly not utilities (so much less applications), but complex systems consisting of many deamons, utilities and interfaces designed to work together<br />
* remove the [[List_of_applications/Internet#Web_Servers]] section:<br />
** merge [[List_of_applications/Internet#LAMP_stack]] to [[Server#LAMP]] - I doubt it is useful for an average user<br />
** remove [[List_of_applications/Internet#Wiki_engines]] - it is very incomplete and like above, not useful<br />
** move [[List_of_applications/Internet#Content_management.2C_social_networks.2C_blog_publishers]] back to [[List_of_applications/Internet#Blog_engines]]<br />
** move [[List_of_applications/Internet#Cloud_storage_servers]] under [[List_of_applications/Internet#File_sharing]]<br />

<br />
:1. Applications that require a LAMP stack, such as Blog engines, Cloud storage, and Content managers like Drupal and Wordpress see widespread use, and most were already listed here. The variety of server options ''that they require'' also belong here. Server apps should also be in their own section (and linked to, from the client section), because their purpose and implementation is distinct. And when you set up a server, it is useful to have a list of server apps. Users looking for clients apps are not going to be looking for server apps until they're setting up a server.<br />
:"I doubt it is useful for an average user" - what exactly is an "average user"? This is an opinion that is quite frankly not true.<br />
:Also, if some section seems incomplete, then improve it, instead of simply using its incompleteness as an argument for removing it.<br />
:2. The biggest bloat in this list are all the dead links.<br />
:3a. The [[Table of contents]] is a list of wiki pages. It does not include any apps that don't happen to have one, including ones that work out of the box and don't need one.<br />
:3b. If [[General recommendations]] were to take on the information in these lists - there are ''eight'' lists here - then ''that page'' would become bloated. It wouldn't be a bad idea in fact to link from General Recommendations to the relevant section in this list.<br />
:3c. You search when you already know exactly what you're looking for. Lists are for finding new apps you didn't know about.<br />
:4. Databases: ''all'' apps are "complex systems" in many ways. And there are several dbases to choose from.<br />
:5. I agree that basic things like core-utils should not be on this list. (However, Linux users in particular ''do'' explore alternatives "just because".)<br />
:6. I think a Bootsplash is still a workspace option and should be represented here. (I've never used one, but I think others would consider trying one if they come across the option.)<br />
:7. I think Accessibility should not be overlooked. Linking to an detailed article is fine.<br />
:8. I also seem to need to emphasize that I have not "bloated" this list, but am trying to make it more coherent.<br />

::Let's take it one at a time. It seems you want to take all applications which have something to do with a client-server model, split the server part away from the client's category and create one big category of these server things. Well, then for starters "Web Servers" is not the right name for it. But I'll dispute even the existence of such section on this page, regardless of its name, for two reasons:<br />
::# Selecting applications to set up a (web or whatever) server takes more then a short entry in a list. One needs to consider the concrete usecase and often even a combination of applications as a whole rather than each application separately for its purpose. Hence this topic belongs to the [[Server]] page, where more details can be provided. Of course this page could link to it.<br />
::# The current way is to split sections according to software categories (i.e. their purpose), not based on whether they require the LAMP stack, have to be run on server or simple desktop will suffice. I'd say this corresponds with how people search for software first they have a purpose, then they concern with what they need to run the software.<br />
::-- [[User:Lahwaacz|Lahwaacz]] ([[User talk:Lahwaacz|talk]]) 10:02, 3 March 2017 (UTC)<br />
<br />
:::A server is more than a LAMP stack - not all server apps used on the web require LAMP stacks.<br />
:::Users look for client apps and server apps for very different reasons.<br />
:::Also the [[Server]] page provides little guidance on selecting LAMP components, and none of the options provided on this list. Most apps can be used on a number of server/dbase combinations, and it's up to the user to settle on what works best for them, just as with any other application.<br />
:::--[[User:Idomeneo1|Idomeneo1]] ([[User talk:Idomeneo1|talk]]) 23:20, 3 March 2017 (UTC)<br />
<br />
::::Obviously various servers run all sorts of software, often even client software to communicate with other servers. The separation of software based on where it runs (server or desktop) is impossible, often it can be both. A "Servers" section that you propose would be a catch-all section which would evenutally become impossible to read and maintain. Categorization based on the software purpose is much more useful in my view.<br />
::::As for LAMP, I proposed to '''merge''' the [[List_of_applications/Internet#LAMP_stack]] section to the [[Server]] page, not to remove it without compensation.<br />

=== Radical alternative ===<br />
<br />
Warning: extreme brainstorming, join at your own risk.<br />
<br />
I agree with Lahwaacz about the fact that this page is becoming bloated and overlapping with the other index pages. However I also think that the very existence of this article (and its subsections) encourages Idomeneo1's approach, and honestly I don't think it's Simple anymore to understand what to keep here and what not, what to interlink where and what not etc., any solution still looks a bit arbitrary to me.<br />
<br />
I was thinking, perhaps we could kill this page completely and merge the various sections in the appropriate Category pages, taking the chance to improve the [[Table of contents|Category tree]], possibly also creating empty categories if needed, which would function as placeholders in that case, or each Category could still contain a main section and some subsections. I think that our current [[Table of contents]] already has some resemblance with the ToC of this article, so that scope overlapping/duplication may be the root cause of the parent discussion. Categories can also have multiple parents, which would address the current problem of having to interlink sections of this article with each other. Another advantage is that users would get more used to look into the Category page of an article, not only to find related articles, but now also to find related software that may not have wiki articles. Another advantage is that when creating an article about a piece of software it's already clear where to categorize it.<br />
<br />
Disadvantages: we lose the ability to see all the applications in the same page. (and...?)<br />
<br />
Last thing, I think that this idea would look the best if the app lists were changed to tables, as we discussed a long time ago in [[Talk:List of games]] and now I tried in [[User:Kynikos/App]]. [[Template:App]] can be changed to create a table row very easily, but I'd also like to discuss restructuring it as shown at the bottom of [[User:Kynikos/App#Terminal emulators]], which IMO gives info less redundantly.<br />
<br />
Enough :) — [[User:Kynikos|Kynikos]] ([[User talk:Kynikos|talk]]) 18:12, 5 March 2017 (UTC)<br />
<br />
:Currently we have a rule that if category A has a subcategory B, pages in B cannot be categorized also in A. I'd imagine that the application lists/tables would follow similar rule to avoid duplication, so we'd also lose the ability to see all applications in category A on the same page. Depending on how the actual categorization would look like, this might be important disadvantage - consider e.g. the subsections of [[List_of_applications#File_sharing]].<br />
:I was actually thinking that for applications which have a wiki page, browsing [[:Category:Applications]] instead of this page should give basically the same results (maybe some small subsections are squashed together, but that's not a problem). To make things simple(r), we might just say that topics which have most pages outside of [[:Category:Applications]] don't belong here and should be linked externally. Usually such topics have an introduction page, such as [[Server]], [[Xorg]] or [[Desktop environments]]. There would be a huge problem with "Utilities" and "Security" though. Also this approach would probably not cut the bloat enough.<br />

<br />
::Personally I don't think that viewing the whole [[List of applications#File sharing]] section in the same page is so useful; seeing its section structure in the ToC is useful, but that would be preserved in the automated category tree. As I wrote, we could allow subsections in Category pages, for example to keep non-specific distinctions like console/graphical or client/server. We could also instruct toc.py to read section headings in Category pages and show them in the generated ToC (perhaps only under [[:Category:Applications]]). Finally, it wouldn't be a violation of the DRY principle if we also generated pages that collate the contents of some Categories and their descendants, of course protecting them from manual editing. — [[User:Kynikos|Kynikos]] ([[User talk:Kynikos|talk]]) 05:56, 6 March 2017 (UTC)<br />

:The category tree / table of contents lists wiki pages, not apps - an app would have to have a special wiki page just to be mentioned, and even then, there is old cruft in the wiki pages as well. And that is ''much'' harder to clean up than a list.<br />

::As I see, '''CD/DVD Burning Tools''' are already a part of '''Multimedia'''. '''Screen Capture''', I think, must be in '''Utilities'''.<br />
::And there's another question from russian users. '''OCR software''' isn't a reader or viewer, so it must be before or after '''1.9 Note taking organizers''' with corresponding number '''1.9''' or '''1.10'''<br />

<br />
:::Um... "Utilities" is practically a default category for applications that don't fit anywhere else: since "Screen capture" is kind of related to "Multimedia", it would probably be better to leave it there (thus changing the opinion I expressed above, I think I'm allowed, after more than 2 years :P ).<br />
:::I'm quite neutral about moving "OCR software" in the tree: it is related to "Scans", but maybe not so closely.

=== Split up completely? ===<br />
Just wondering if it would be better to completely split the article up into separate articles, rather than transcluding everything back in as templates. Perhaps just include links and a brief summary of each category in the top-level page, maybe something along the lines of:<br />
<br />
{{META Box | | This page has various categories of programs and points to lists of programs in those categories. It is a useful starting point for finding a program for a specific application. [Introduce console versus graphical.]<br />
<br />
'''[[Common Applications/Internet | Internet]]''' including network configuration, and clients or browsers for web sites, FTP, file sharing, chat and email messaging, web feeds, and microblogging<br />
<br />
'''[[Common Applications/Multimedia | Multimedia]]''' including viewers, players and editors for raster, vector, 3D, CAD, audio and video, GUI capture, systems for accessing audio devices, audio CD rippers, and e-book programs.<br />
<br />
'''[[Common Applications/Utilities | Utilities]]''', which covers package management, file managers including space usage, compression and merge tools, optical disc burning, clipboards, GUI taskbars.<br />
<br />
'''[[Common Applications/Documents | Documents]]''': readers for printable files like PDFs, office suites, word processors, spreadsheets, text search, OCR<br />
<br />
'''[[Common Applications/Security | Security]]''': firewalls; file, network and log monitoring, scanning and analysis; backup<br />
<br />
'''[[Common Applications/Games | Games]]''': native and emulators<br />
<br />
'''[[Common Applications/Science | Science]]''': calculators, visualisation, design, programming environments and other tools for maths, chemistry, biology, astronomy, electronics and physics<br />
<br />
'''[[Common Applications/Other | Other]]''': note taking and scheduling; translation; desktop environments and window managers; terminals; OS monitors; text editors<br />
<br />
'''See also''' [other general lists of programs]}}<br />
<br />
Smaller individual pages would be nicer, because often I’m only interested in programs for a specific application, such as (in the past) [[Common Applications/Science#Electronics | Science#Electronics]], and [[Common Applications/Multimedia#GUI players | Multimedia#GUI players]] (audio).

<br />
:I think the main problem here is that if I'm looking for a particular subcategory I have to guess under which main category it can be, while currently, with the comprehensive ToC, that task is easier.

== Multi-Protocol Downloader section ==<br />
<br />
Similarly to command shells, a downloader section is missing. Here we find good the same one: [[pyLoad#Alternatives]] [[JDownloader#Alternatives]].<br />
Plus aria2, curl, wget, kget should be added. Is it ok? Could you point me more downloaders?<br />
As kget and aria2 would be doubled we can do a "Multi-Protocol Downloader" section like [[List_of_Applications#Multi-Protocol Clients]] and delete original entries liting supported protocols. -- [[User:Flu|Flu]] ([[User talk:Flu|talk]]) 16:37, 8 September 2013 (UTC)<br />

== Order of things? ==<br />
<br />
Is there any special order to these lists?<br />
<br />
For instance, under "Internet" it would seem more intuitive to begin with "Network Managers", then "Browsers", then a section for "Downloaders". and so on.<br />

:"Intuitive" is subjective, I'd just simply use alphabetical order, although I know it's not used anywhere at the moment... -- [[User:Kynikos|Kynikos]] ([[User talk:Kynikos|talk]]) 21:07, 20 January 2014 (UTC)<br />
<br />
::Call it chronological? i.e. an order in which people (especially beginners) would think of setting things up - network, browser, communication, downloads, media etc.<br />
::The problem with alphabetical lists is that even if we decide on "correct" terms for things, some people will, i.e., look for 'console', and others for 'terminal'.<br />
::[[User:Idomeneo1|Idomeneo1]] ([[User talk:Idomeneo1|talk]]) 14:10, 21 January 2014 (UTC)<br />
<br />
:::Eheh a similar objection could be made for the "chronological" order, which, as I said, is subjective, e.g. some people may want to install messaging apps before p2p or vice versa. Maybe what you really mean is a "dependency" order, i.e. if in a group of sections there's one that lists applications (e.g. network managers) that may be necessary for applications in other groups to work, then put it at the top. I can agree with that, also because other sections like the various "Other" should instead better be kept at the bottom. All the in-between sections, though, should be sorted alphabetically: the problem of synonyms would affect any kind of odering we may choose, and in general it affects all kinds of word lists (e.g. dictionaries), so users are used to dealing with it.<br />

== List dead projects or not? ==<br />
[https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php?title=List_of_Applications/Multimedia&diff=next&oldid=296040 Kino is dead], it doesn't even have a maintainer in the AUR.

<br />
:I wouldn't really know what's best to do, but if the application is confirmed to be still working, ''keep''ing it in the list should be the default action until somebody proves that listing it is counterproductive in some way. Of course a note about the EOL should be added if restored. -- [[User:Kynikos|Kynikos]] ([[User talk:Kynikos|talk]]) 15:50, 4 February 2014 (UTC)<br />

:Well, the apps whose ''upstream'' maintainers explicitly discourage using them can indeed be removed, possibly making sure that any indicated alternative is already present in this list, adding it otherwise.

== Where should "full-stack" scanning software go? ==<br />
<br />
Some software (two examples below, I can add a few more when I have times) provide some set of scanner/camera frontend, image processing, document layout analysis, OCR frontend and document writer. We have categories for almost all of these, but where should software that smoothly incorporates all the above go?<br />
<br />
* {{App|Scan Tailor|Image procesing, document layout analyzer, document writer|http://scantailor.sourceforge.net/|{{Pkg|scantailor-git}}}}<br />
* {{App|gscan2pdf|Scans, runs an OCR engine, minor post-processing, creates a document.|http://gscan2pdf.sourceforge.net/|{{AUR|gscan2pdf}}}}<br />

== AUR3 packages ==<br />
<br />
It's been about half a year since the transition to AUR4, so I think it's time to start slowly removing the references to the old packages that were not migrated. The lists such as this one, its translations, [[Fonts#Font packages]] etc. would be a good start, we can wait even longer with normal pages.

== What is Xpra, really? ==<br />
<br />
Where should [[Xpra]] go? Technically, remote desktop may be applicable, but it's not limited to remote stuff. You can run<br />
it locally on another X display.<br />
<br />
Technically, all Xpra is is some persistent X sessions that you can attach to and detach from at any time. It's not ''really''<br />
a remote desktop thing.<br />

<br />
::Technically, yes. This ''is'' the list of applications, so why not? Xpra is a "screen for X". That way, the least vague thing to do would be to split terminal multiplexers into a multiplexers category and there would be two subcategories: terminal and X11. Xpra would, ''obviously'' be in X11. I say least vague, since screen is a multiplexer, yet Xpra isn't. The only thing it has in common with screen is the persistent sessions.

== Add Org-mode as a markup language? ==<br />
<br />
Org-mode is a markup language, but it is tied to the Emacs text editor. Any editor can produce valid org markup, but at present, only Emacs can export that markup to pdf, .tex, html, etc. <br />
<br />
Org-mode is such a great markup language, but I wonder if being tied to the Emacs means we should omit it. What do ya'll think?<br />

== Scope of the page ==<br />
<br />
It seems that this page is becoming a bloated index for all possible "lists" on the wiki, or maybe even the whole wiki itself. There are other pages to help users find what they are looking for, e.g. [[Table of contents]], [[General recommendations]] and of course the full-text search. Therefore I think that the [[List of applications]] should be a ''comprehensible'' list of the most common categories of application software and not a ''comprehensive'' list of everything. I believe that the index pages can have separate targets and cooperate with each other to provide a complete picture instead of overlapping and hindering readability by linking to each other.<br />
<br />
I propose the following:<br />
<br />
* remove [[List_of_applications/Workspace#Command_shells]] - one does not look for an alternative shell "just because", but to solve some specific problem or inconvenience, which is out of the reach of this page ([[General_recommendations#Console_improvements]] covers it quite nicely)<br />
* I do not consider the things linked from [[List_of_applications/Workspace#Bootsplash]] to be "applications" and would like it removed. An explicit link to [[:Category:Bootsplash]] could be added to [[General_recommendations#Appearance]], although it already links to its parent category: [[:Category:Eye candy]].<br />
* remove [[List_of_applications/Workspace#Display_managers]], [[List_of_applications/Workspace#Desktop_environments]], [[List_of_applications/Workspace#Window_managers]] and [[List_of_applications/Workspace#Composite_managers]] - the topic is much better covered in [[General_recommendations#Graphical_user_interface]] (the two packages from [[List_of_applications/Workspace#Window_managers]] could be moved to [[General_recommendations#Console_improvements]])<br />
* remove [[List_of_applications/Workspace#Accessibility]] - it is a topic of its own, not just about selecting applications<br />
* remove [[List_of_applications/Utilities#Databases]] - they are certainly not utilities (so much less applications), but complex systems consisting of many deamons, utilities and interfaces designed to work together<br />
* remove the [[List_of_applications/Internet#Web_Servers]] section:<br />
** merge [[List_of_applications/Internet#LAMP_stack]] to [[Server#LAMP]] - I doubt it is useful for an average user<br />
** remove [[List_of_applications/Internet#Wiki_engines]] - it is very incomplete and like above, not useful<br />
** move [[List_of_applications/Internet#Content_management.2C_social_networks.2C_blog_publishers]] back to [[List_of_applications/Internet#Blog_engines]]<br />
** move [[List_of_applications/Internet#Cloud_storage_servers]] under [[List_of_applications/Internet#File_sharing]]<br />

<br />
:1. Applications that require a LAMP stack, such as Blog engines, Cloud storage, and Content managers like Drupal and Wordpress see widespread use, and most were already listed here. The variety of server options ''that they require'' also belong here. Server apps should also be in their own section (and linked to, from the client section), because their purpose and implementation is distinct. And when you set up a server, it is useful to have a list of server apps. Users looking for clients apps are not going to be looking for server apps until they're setting up a server.<br />
:"I doubt it is useful for an average user" - what exactly is an "average user"? This is an opinion that is quite frankly not true.<br />
:Also, if some section seems incomplete, then improve it, instead of simply using its incompleteness as an argument for removing it.<br />
:2. The biggest bloat in this list are all the dead links.<br />
:3a. The [[Table of contents]] is a list of wiki pages. It does not include any apps that don't happen to have one, including ones that work out of the box and don't need one.<br />
:3b. If [[General recommendations]] were to take on the information in these lists - there are ''eight'' lists here - then ''that page'' would become bloated. It wouldn't be a bad idea in fact to link from General Recommendations to the relevant section in this list.<br />
:3c. You search when you already know exactly what you're looking for. Lists are for finding new apps you didn't know about.<br />
:4. Databases: ''all'' apps are "complex systems" in many ways. And there are several dbases to choose from.<br />
:5. I agree that basic things like core-utils should not be on this list. (However, Linux users in particular ''do'' explore alternatives "just because".)<br />
:6. I think a Bootsplash is still a workspace option and should be represented here. (I've never used one, but I think others would consider trying one if they come across the option.)<br />
:7. I think Accessibility should not be overlooked. Linking to an detailed article is fine.<br />
:8. I also seem to need to emphasize that I have not "bloated" this list, but am trying to make it more coherent.<br />

::Let's take it one at a time. It seems you want to take all applications which have something to do with a client-server model, split the server part away from the client's category and create one big category of these server things. Well, then for starters "Web Servers" is not the right name for it. But I'll dispute even the existence of such section on this page, regardless of its name, for two reasons:<br />
::# Selecting applications to set up a (web or whatever) server takes more then a short entry in a list. One needs to consider the concrete usecase and often even a combination of applications as a whole rather than each application separately for its purpose. Hence this topic belongs to the [[Server]] page, where more details can be provided. Of course this page could link to it.<br />
::# The current way is to split sections according to software categories (i.e. their purpose), not based on whether they require the LAMP stack, have to be run on server or simple desktop will suffice. I'd say this corresponds with how people search for software first they have a purpose, then they concern with what they need to run the software.<br />

:::A server is more than a LAMP stack - not all server apps used on the web require LAMP stacks.<br />
:::Users look for client apps and server apps for very different reasons.<br />
:::Also the [[Server]] page provides little guidance on selecting LAMP components, and none of the options provided on this list. Most apps can be used on a number of server/dbase combinations, and it's up to the user to settle on what works best for them, just as with any other application.<br />

=== Pastebin clients ===<br />
<br />
See also [[Wikipedia:Pastebin]].<br />
<br />
Pastebin services are often used to quote text or images while collaborating and troubleshooting. Pastebin clients provide a convenient way to post from the command line.<br />
<br />
{{Tip| You can access the [https://ptpb.pw ptpb.pw], [http://sprunge.us/ sprunge.us] and [http://ix.io/ ix.io] pastebins using curl. For example pipe the output of a command to ptpb: {{bc|''command'' <nowiki>| curl -F c=@- https://ptpb.pw </nowiki>}} or upload a file (including images): {{bc|<nowiki>curl -F c=@- https://ptpb.pw < </nowiki>''file''}}}}<br />
<br />

=== Emulators ===<br />
An emulator is a program which serves to replicate the functions of another platform or system so as to allow applications and games to be run in environments they were not programmed for.<br />
<br />
{{Note|1=For possibly more up to date selection of emulators, try checking the [https://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?O=0&K=&do_Search=Go&detail=1&L=0&C=5&SeB=nd&SB=n&SO=a&PP=25 AUR 'emulators' category]}}<br />
<br />
{{Warning|Owning a high-level emulator is not illegal, but distribution of any type of copyrighted ROMs and unauthorized emulation (without written permission of the copyright holder allowing the user to do so) are '''illegal'''. Consequently, Arch Linux does not distribute this copyrighted content, including game ROMs and ripped console BIOSs. You are fully responsible for whatever usage of the emulators obtained from the [[official repositories]] or the [[Arch User Repository]] you make, as well as any legal repercussion that result. Arch Linux bears no responsibility at all.}}<br />

=== Emulators ===<br />
An emulator is a program which serves to replicate the functions of another platform or system so as to allow applications and games to be run in environments they were not programmed for.<br />
<br />
{{Note|1=For possibly more up to date selection of emulators, try checking the [https://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?O=0&K=&do_Search=Go&detail=1&L=0&C=5&SeB=nd&SB=n&SO=a&PP=25 AUR 'emulators' category]}}<br />
<br />
{{Warning|Owning a high-level emulator is not illegal, but distribution of any type of copyrighted ROMs and unauthorized emulation (without written permission of the copyright holder allowing the user to do so) are '''illegal'''. Consequently, Arch Linux does not distribute this copyrighted content, including game ROMs and ripped console BIOSs. You are fully responsible for whatever usage of the emulators obtained from the [[official repositories]] or the [[Arch User Repository]] you make, as well as any legal repercussion that result. Arch Linux bears no responsibility at all.}}<br />

Can "CD/DVD Burning Tools" be considered part of "Multimedia"?<br />
Should "Screen Capture" section be part of "Utilities" or "Multimedia"? --[[User:AlexanderR|AlexanderR]] 21:10, 16 January 2012 (EST)<br />
<br />
:Eh I'm afraid we'll just have to establish a convention: I'd say Burning tools in Multimedia and Screen Capture in Utilities? Let's wait for more opinions. -- [[User:Kynikos|Kynikos]] 07:53, 17 January 2012 (EST)<br />
<br />
::As I see, '''CD/DVD Burning Tools''' are already a part of '''Multimedia'''. '''Screen Capture''', I think, must be in '''Utilities'''.<br />
::And there's another question from russian users. '''OCR software''' isn't a reader or viewer, so it must be before or after '''1.9 Note taking organizers''' with corresponding number '''1.9''' or '''1.10'''<br />
::UPD. Also, there's a good idea to add in this section some (or all) progs from [[Optical Character Recognition]] -- [[User:Kycok|Kycok]] ([[User talk:Kycok|talk]]) 05:32, 11 April 2014 (UTC)<br />
<br />
:::Um... "Utilities" is practically a default category for applications that don't fit anywhere else: since "Screen capture" is kind of related to "Multimedia", it would probably be better to leave it there (thus changing the opinion I expressed above, I think I'm allowed, after more than 2 years :P ).<br />
:::I'm quite neutral about moving "OCR software" in the tree: it is related to "Scans", but maybe not so closely. I'm also neutral about merging [[Optical Character Recognition]] there: actually that article doesn't contain anything except for a short list of applications, so it could indeed be merged.<br />
:::Anyone with a stronger position on the topic? -- [[User:Kynikos|Kynikos]] ([[User talk:Kynikos|talk]]) 14:12, 11 April 2014 (UTC)<br />
<br />
::::So, I've made corresponding changes in '''Documents''' section. Also I've merged '''Pdf''' and '''DjVu''', because many progs in '''Pdf''' works with DjVu. I've deleted tool '''fbdjvu''', because, as I see, it's merged with '''fbpdf'''.<br />
::::Let's talk if there's another opinions about my changes -- [[User:Kycok|Kycok]] ([[User talk:Kycok|talk]]) 09:59, 14 April 2014 (UTC)<br />
<br />
:::::Well done, except you forgot to redirect [[Optical Character Recognition]], [https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php?title=Optical_Character_Recognition&diff=310498&oldid=273112 fixed] now :) -- [[User:Kynikos|Kynikos]] ([[User talk:Kynikos|talk]]) 12:53, 15 April 2014 (UTC)<br />

<br />
I have submitted a AUR package for {{AUR|sendanywhere}}, a cross-platform p2p file sharing utility (similar to Pushbullet, but with standalone software client). I am not sure under which section I should include it. It is definitely not FTP based or bittorrent based. Should it go under '''Downloaders''' or '''Communications'''; also, shall I start a new subsection, maybe called '''p2p file sharing/pushing'''? [[User:Jadelord|Jadelord]] ([[User talk:Jadelord|talk]]) 11:17, 6 January 2016 (UTC)<br />
<br />
:I've just created [[List_of_applications/Internet#Other_P2P_networks]], I think that's the best place for the moment. — [[User:Kynikos|Kynikos]] ([[User talk:Kynikos|talk]]) 03:11, 7 January 2016 (UTC)<br />

=== Split up completely? ===<br />
Just wondering if it would be better to completely split the article up into separate articles, rather than transcluding everything back in as templates. Perhaps just include links and a brief summary of each category in the top-level page, maybe something along the lines of:<br />
<br />

Smaller individual pages would be nicer, because often I’m only interested in programs for a specific application, such as (in the past) [[Common Applications/Science#Electronics | Science#Electronics]], and [[Common Applications/Multimedia#GUI players | Multimedia#GUI players]] (audio). Even using the TOC, I think currently it’s too easy to get lost or overwhelmed. [[User:Vadmium|Vadmium]] 00:18, 26 January 2012 (EST).<br />
<br />
:I think the main problem here is that if I'm looking for a particular subcategory I have to guess under which main category it can be, while currently, with the comprehensive ToC, that task is easier. Possible compromise: maintain a "manual" Table of Contents in the top-level page, with links to the various subpages/subsections. Let's hear more opinions. -- [[User:Kynikos|Kynikos]] 07:53, 26 January 2012 (EST)<br />

::@Leocp1 What links are you talking about?

:::I've written a summary in the subsection below and added some other ideas: currently I think solution 4 may be the tidiest and best looking, otherwise I'd try solution 1 as a second choice. Please add your opinions there so we can make a better decision.<br />
:::@AlexanderR We're talking about the See also links at the bottom of the article, not the links specific to each application, which should stay in the proper App template and/or the related wiki article (I'm not sure if that's what you meant).<br />

Plus aria2, curl, wget, kget should be added. Is it ok? Could you point me more downloaders?<br />

== Order of things? ==<br />
<br />
Is there any special order to these lists?<br />
<br />
For instance, under "Internet" it would seem more intuitive to begin with "Network Managers", then "Browsers", then a section for "Downloaders". and so on.<br />
[[User:Idomeneo1|Idomeneo1]] ([[User talk:Idomeneo1|talk]]) 00:51, 20 January 2014 (UTC)<br />

:"Intuitive" is subjective, I'd just simply use alphabetical order, although I know it's not used anywhere at the moment... -- [[User:Kynikos|Kynikos]] ([[User talk:Kynikos|talk]]) 21:07, 20 January 2014 (UTC)<br />
<br />
::Call it chronological? i.e. an order in which people (especially beginners) would think of setting things up - network, browser, communication, downloads, media etc.<br />
::The problem with alphabetical lists is that even if we decide on "correct" terms for things, some people will, i.e., look for 'console', and others for 'terminal'.<br />
::[[User:Idomeneo1|Idomeneo1]] ([[User talk:Idomeneo1|talk]]) 14:10, 21 January 2014 (UTC)<br />
<br />
:::Eheh a similar objection could be made for the "chronological" order, which, as I said, is subjective, e.g. some people may want to install messaging apps before p2p or vice versa. Maybe what you really mean is a "dependency" order, i.e. if in a group of sections there's one that lists applications (e.g. network managers) that may be necessary for applications in other groups to work, then put it at the top. I can agree with that, also because other sections like the various "Other" should instead better be kept at the bottom. All the in-between sections, though, should be sorted alphabetically: the problem of synonyms would affect any kind of odering we may choose, and in general it affects all kinds of word lists (e.g. dictionaries), so users are used to dealing with it.<br />

== List dead projects or not? ==<br />
[https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php?title=List_of_Applications/Multimedia&diff=next&oldid=296040 Kino is dead], it doesn't even have a maintainer in the AUR.

<br />
:I wouldn't really know what's best to do, but if the application is confirmed to be still working, ''keep''ing it in the list should be the default action until somebody proves that listing it is counterproductive in some way. Of course a note about the EOL should be added if restored. -- [[User:Kynikos|Kynikos]] ([[User talk:Kynikos|talk]]) 15:50, 4 February 2014 (UTC)<br />

== Where should "full-stack" scanning software go? ==<br />
<br />
Some software (two examples below, I can add a few more when I have times) provide some set of scanner/camera frontend, image processing, document layout analysis, OCR frontend and document writer.

== AUR3 packages ==<br />
<br />
It's been about half a year since the transition to AUR4, so I think it's time to start slowly removing the references to the old packages that were not migrated.

== What is Xpra, really? ==<br />

Where should [[Xpra]] go? Technically, remote desktop may be applicable, but it's not limited to remote stuff. You can run<br />

Technically, all Xpra is is some persistent X sessions that you can attach to and detach from at any time. It's not ''really''<br />
a remote desktop thing.<br />

<br />
::Technically, yes. This ''is'' the list of applications, so why not? Xpra is a "screen for X". That way, the least vague thing to do would be to split terminal multiplexers into a multiplexers category and there would be two subcategories: terminal and X11. Xpra would, ''obviously'' be in X11. I say least vague, since screen is a multiplexer, yet Xpra isn't. The only thing it has in common with screen is the persistent sessions.

== Add Org-mode as a markup language? ==<br />

Org-mode is a markup language, but it is tied to the Emacs text editor. Any editor can produce valid org markup, but at present, only Emacs can export that markup to pdf, .tex, html, etc. <br />

== Scope of the page ==<br />
<br />
It seems that this page is becoming a bloated index for all possible "lists" on the wiki, or maybe even the whole wiki itself. There are other pages to help users find what they are looking for, e.g. [[Table of contents]], [[General recommendations]] and of course the full-text search. Therefore I think that the [[List of applications]] should be a ''comprehensible'' list of the most common categories of application software and not a ''comprehensive'' list of everything. I believe that the index pages can have separate targets and cooperate with each other to provide a complete picture instead of overlapping and hindering readability by linking to each other.<br />
<br />
I propose the following:<br />
<br />
* remove [[List_of_applications/Workspace#Command_shells]] - one does not look for an alternative shell "just because", but to solve some specific problem or inconvenience, which is out of the reach of this page ([[General_recommendations#Console_improvements]] covers it quite nicely)<br />
* I do not consider the things linked from [[List_of_applications/Workspace#Bootsplash]] to be "applications" and would like it removed. An explicit link to [[:Category:Bootsplash]] could be added to [[General_recommendations#Appearance]], although it already links to its parent category: [[:Category:Eye candy]].<br />
* remove [[List_of_applications/Workspace#Display_managers]], [[List_of_applications/Workspace#Desktop_environments]], [[List_of_applications/Workspace#Window_managers]] and [[List_of_applications/Workspace#Composite_managers]] - the topic is much better covered in [[General_recommendations#Graphical_user_interface]] (the two packages from [[List_of_applications/Workspace#Window_managers]] could be moved to [[General_recommendations#Console_improvements]])<br />
* remove [[List_of_applications/Workspace#Accessibility]] - it is a topic of its own, not just about selecting applications<br />
* remove [[List_of_applications/Utilities#Databases]] - they are certainly not utilities (so much less applications), but complex systems consisting of many deamons, utilities and interfaces designed to work together<br />
* remove the [[List_of_applications/Internet#Web_Servers]] section:<br />
** merge [[List_of_applications/Internet#LAMP_stack]] to [[Server#LAMP]] - I doubt it is useful for an average user<br />
** remove [[List_of_applications/Internet#Wiki_engines]] - it is very incomplete and like above, not useful<br />
** move [[List_of_applications/Internet#Content_management.2C_social_networks.2C_blog_publishers]] back to [[List_of_applications/Internet#Blog_engines]]<br />
** move [[List_of_applications/Internet#Cloud_storage_servers]] under [[List_of_applications/Internet#File_sharing]]<br />
<br />
-- [[User:Lahwaacz|Lahwaacz]] ([[User talk:Lahwaacz|talk]]) 14:44, 2 March 2017 (UTC)<br />
<br />
<br />
:1. Applications that require a LAMP stack, such as Blog engines, Cloud storage, and Content managers like Drupal and Wordpress see widespread use, and most were already listed here. The variety of server options ''that they require'' also belong here. Server apps should also be in their own section (and linked to, from the client section), because their purpose and implementation is distinct. And when you set up a server, it is useful to have a list of server apps. Users looking for clients apps are not going to be looking for server apps until they're setting up a server.<br />
:"I doubt it is useful for an average user" - what exactly is an "average user"? This is an opinion that is quite frankly not true.<br />
:Also, if some section seems incomplete, then improve it, instead of simply using its incompleteness as an argument for removing it.<br />
:2. The biggest bloat in this list are all the dead links.<br />
:3a. The [[Table of contents]] is a list of wiki pages. It does not include any apps that don't happen to have one, including ones that work out of the box and don't need one.<br />
:3b. If [[General recommendations]] were to take on the information in these lists - there are ''eight'' lists here - then ''that page'' would become bloated. It wouldn't be a bad idea in fact to link from General Recommendations to the relevant section in this list.<br />
:3c. You search when you already know exactly what you're looking for. Lists are for finding new apps you didn't know about.<br />
:4. Databases: ''all'' apps are "complex systems" in many ways. And there are several dbases to choose from.<br />
:5. I agree that basic things like core-utils should not be on this list. (However, Linux users in particular ''do'' explore alternatives "just because".)<br />
:6. I think a Bootsplash is still a workspace option and should be represented here. (I've never used one, but I think others would consider trying one if they come across the option.)<br />
:7. I think Accessibility should not be overlooked. Linking to an detailed article is fine.<br />
:8. I also seem to need to emphasize that I have not "bloated" this list, but am trying to make it more coherent.<br />

===== Multi-protocol clients =====<br />
<br />
See also [[Wikipedia:Comparison of instant messaging clients]].<br />
<br />
{{Note|All messengers, that support several networks by means of direct connections to them, belong to this section.}}<br />
<br />
Many clients listed here (including Pidgin and all its forks) support multiple IM networks via [[Wikipedia:libpurple|libpurple]]. The number of networks supported by these clients is very large but they (like any multiprotocol clients) usually have very limited or no support for network-specific features.<br />

=== Emulators ===<br />
An emulator is a program which serves to replicate the functions of another platform or system so as to allow applications and games to be run in environments they were not programmed for.<br />
<br />
{{Note|1=For possibly more up to date selection of emulators, try checking the [https://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?O=0&K=&do_Search=Go&detail=1&L=0&C=5&SeB=nd&SB=n&SO=a&PP=25 AUR 'emulators' category]}}<br />
<br />
{{Warning|Owning a high-level emulator is not illegal, but distribution of any type of copyrighted ROMs and unauthorized emulation (without written permission of the copyright holder allowing the user to do so) are '''illegal'''. Consequently, Arch Linux does not distribute this copyrighted content, including game ROMs and ripped console BIOSs. You are fully responsible for whatever usage of the emulators obtained from the [[official repositories]] or the [[Arch User Repository]] you make, as well as any legal repercussion that result. Arch Linux bears no responsibility at all.}}<br />

This article is a general list of applications sorted by category, as a reference for those looking for packages. Many sections are split between console and graphical applications.<br />
{{Tip|1=<br><br />
* This page exists primarily to make it easier to search for alternatives to an application that you do not know under which section has been added. Use the links in the template at the top to view the main sections as separate pages.<br />
* Please consider [[installing]] the [[pkgstats]] package, which provides a timer that sends a list of the packages installed on your system, along with the architecture and the mirrors you use, to the Arch Linux developers in order to help them prioritize their efforts and make the distribution even better. The information is sent anonymously and cannot be used to identify you. You can view the collected data at the [https://www.archlinux.de/?page=Statistics Statistics page]. More information is available in [https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=105431 this forum thread].<br />
* Daemon packages usually include the relevant systemd unit file to [[start]]; some packages even include different ones. After installation {{ic|pacman -Qql ''package'' <nowiki>|</nowiki> grep -Fe .service -e .socket}} can be used to check and find the relevant one.<br />

=== Emulators ===<br />
An emulator is a program which serves to replicate the functions of another platform or system so as to allow applications and games to be run in environments they were not programmed for.<br />
<br />
{{Note|1=For possibly more up to date selection of emulators, try checking the [https://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?O=0&K=&do_Search=Go&detail=1&L=0&C=5&SeB=nd&SB=n&SO=a&PP=25 AUR 'emulators' category]}}<br />
<br />
{{Warning|Owning a high-level emulator is not illegal, but distribution of any type of copyrighted ROMs and unauthorized emulation (without written permission of the copyright holder allowing the user to do so) are '''illegal'''. Consequently, Arch Linux does not distribute this copyrighted content, including game ROMs and ripped console BIOSs. You are fully responsible for whatever usage of the emulators obtained from the [[official repositories]] or the [[Arch User Repository]] you make, as well as any legal repercussion that result. Arch Linux bears no responsibility at all.}}<br />
