Shell Packages - Which one do you use? What do you use it for?

#1

Hi there!

Every couple of months I get really excited about a shell package. I install it, marvel at the possibilities and even try to make a habit of using it, but after a week or two I always find myself using a terminal again for different reasons.

I conclude using a terminal outside sublime is just more practical for me, but I just find the idea of never leaving sublime so neat.

So I’m wondering if you have any good reasons/excuses for using one of the shell packages.
Could you share an inspirational tale of how shell access from within sublime improved your workflow? Do you have reasons for liking one package more than another?

I tried Shell Turtlestein and Shell Exec and I know about Glue, ShellCommand and ShellStatus.

Thanks for any responses!
