My personal favorite is powerdevil-ddcutil. It lets you control your desktop monitor brightness in KDE.

duc, aur: it indexes file sizes of all your files and lets you browse it with a ncurses ui, for me that lives in the terminal this is a very handy tool for finding where all my disk space went.

What are the pros/cons of duc vs gdu or ncdu?

It has a pie chart in terminal! I used baobab for this, but it's only for systems with gui,this works on servers via ssh.

Edit: I think I misunderstand something. Does it have the piechart in the terminal?

units, always surprised that this old unix staple isn't main repository. try:

units '40 rods/hogshead' 'miles/gallon'

as a nod to grampa simpson. have used 'units' in all sorts of DIY engineering efforts.

I really like shell-color-scripts. It generates cool art in the terminal. It has flags to customize it, but I mostly use the -r flag (random) in my shell's (fish and bash) startup config file so I have some cool art showing each time I open up a terminal or a shell session.

SVXlink a ham radio repeater controller and voip link. Despite the PKGBUILD only being configured for amd64, I've built it on arm6hf and arm7hf from Arch Linux Arm.
