The Guess What I'm Talking About Game - venam - 16-11-2015
Hello fellow nixers,
In this thread we play a game where we try to guess which well known Unix tools, WM, DE, etc.. another member is talking about.
Rules:
The clues should be close enough so it's possible to guess.
There should not be any flame war in your post.
It's a well known thing, judge well what is well known.
Try to be funny.
When you find the answer use a spoiler otherwise you'll get a ban for a day. (might be a joke but don't ruin it for others)
Here we go, have fun!

I'm supported by the Linux kernel.
I went from 3 to 4.
I create that thing.
Data is scattered on what I create.

Al, Pete, and Brian were talking about this new program.
I guess sed didn't fit the bill?
You gotta have it if you wanna Unix properly.
