If you wanna improve or add your tool here, fork this repo then push onto your own master then make a pull request. I won't accept any software that is specific to OS X if it doesn't work on linux or windows. If you think you have a nice feature idea, open an issue. This list isn't mean to be ordered in some way, but if people like it, it is already noted that making a proper wiki referencing tools name with link might be a better thing than a Markdown page. Github wiki is also an option when the list is going to be too long.
