As its name suggests, picocom is a minimal dumb-terminal emulation program. It is, in principle, very much like minicom, only it's pico instead of mini!

If you are a PuTTY user, you might find that KiTTY has features you want. It is a Windows-only fork of PuTTY, with some nice extras. Like ZMODEM transfers. Great if you need it.

More nostalgia developments: someone has figured out how to write a new firmware to those cheap Gotek floppy emulators so that they can be used with an Amiga. Check out Cortex Amiga Floppy Emulator. Very nice!

Atom - a hackable text editor for the 21st Century. This is how GitHub (Wikipedia: GitHub) describes the text editor they always wanted. And built: "A tool you can customize to do anything, but also use productively on the first day without ever touching a config file. Atom is modern, approachable, and hackable to the core. We can't wait to see what you build with it." Nice.

Straight from the horse's mouth: "The Archive Team Warrior is a virtual archiving appliance. You can run it to help with the ArchiveTeam archiving efforts. It will download sites and upload them to our archive � and it�s really easy to do! The warrior is a virtual machine, so there is no risk to your computer. The warrior will only use your bandwidth and some of your disk space." More about ArchiveTeam on Wikipedia - Archive Team. Sounds like a good cause to contribute to, if you can.

I found this on the comp.sys.raspberry.pi newsgroup today, and thought it was funny:
