    • Resizing images: mogrify (part of the imagemagick suite)
    • ffmpeg
    • pdftk is king for rotating/cropping/appending pdfs
    • LaTeX everything
    • make/shell - to script/automate image and document editing
    • pandoc is reasonably good for many things
    • latex2rtf - to get plain text for word counts out of LaTeX source
    • wc - word count, line count
    • ispell -t - does spell check in the terminal. The -t is so that it’ll mostly ignore LaTeX commands in the source

    I’m sure there’s more but I don’t memorize them, they kind of get remembered when I need them.
