Re: Linux Replacements for Windows Programs - bitsnpcs - 01-29-2015
Hello riser,
I have merged as requested.
I have added the new additions, all except 1, "zarchiver", can this be installed on Linux Lite directly ?
Do you have a link for it ?
I can only find links to this that are to Google App Store, or about installing/using it on Android phones.
Credits stated for these and thanks clicked.

Good catch! It is an Android app (I wrote the apps from memory). Please ignore.

No problem mate , thanx buddy !
Unlike some other apps , you can print from Noteadqq . A feature that I like when taking some personal notes or reminders .

Hello,
today I have added 'Gourmet Recipe Manager', and credited, plus thanks given to gold_finger, who recommended it.
I have added it to the Office Suites & Applications category, if it is felt adding it to a different category would be more suited let me know.

Please specify which Windows programs these are Linux alternatives for, and I can then add them to the list, thank you.
