linuxify

Transparently transform the macOS CLI into a fresh GNU/Linux CLI experience by

  • installing missing GNU programs
  • updating outdated GNU programs
  • replacing pre-installed BSD programs with their preferred GNU implementation
  • installing other programs common among popular GNU/Linux distributions

Tested through macOS Big Sur (11), Monterey (12), Ventura (13), Sonoma (14), and Sequoia (15).

Install

git clone https://github.com/pkill37/linuxify.git
cd linuxify/
./linuxify install

Usage

At the end of the install, a file at ~/.linuxify will be provided. Sourcing this file will update your PATH, MANPATH, and other variables so you get the GNU utilites first without needing to prepend them with g.

Uninstall

./linuxify uninstall
