Are there any good tools for listing your current programs, maybe exporting settings etc. Listing hidden settings and save locations would be great too.

I'm about 90% ready to switch to Linux full time, and I want to make sure that I've got everything. I've got a horrible feeling that I'm missing something, but I can't think what it might be.

EDIT: Ironically, I forgot to mention my ADHD / memory issues. I could do with a tool like this because I forget about anything that I'm not currently using, or actively thinking about using soon >.<

I would also delete or disable the app in Windows if I find the alternative to be sufficient

That's a good idea. It would force me to switch back to Linux from the Windows installation.

Photoshop and scanning are probably the two things keeping me on Windows the most. GIMP just isn't as good, no matter how some people say it is, and while scanning is close, at the moment I just can't get the same quality under Linux.

On the bright side, I've only got a few hundred photos to scan, and that should be finished, so at least it's not a permanent problem :)

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.
