    antix-cc-antix – Control centre for antiX full and base versions.

    The package above contains the full control center (centre).

    antix-goodies – Various useful scripts for antiX.
    antix-goodies-core – Various useful scripts for antiX.

    These two packages add useful tools; the full antiX version
    typically contains the contents of both antix-cc-antix
    and antix-goodies. Since you’re looking for a pretty minimal
    configuration, you can add antix-goodies-core. I’m not
    positive what it includes, but there is a good chance that
    it includes the antix-cli-cc tool you are looking for.

    If, by chance, you are interested and willing to add a few
    alias commands to your personal .bashrc (assuming you use
    bash); they should work fine for any sh-based shell, such
    as sh, sh5, bash, pdksh, or zsh, so if you use any of these
    shells, these aliases will work:

    alias bye=’clear; kill -1 0′
    alias c=”clear;pwd”
    alias inst=’sudo apt-get update; sudo apt-get install $@’
    alias u=’sudo apt-get update; sudo apt-get dist-upgrade;\
    sudo update-grub;sudo apt-get autoremove’
    alias pow=’sync;sync;sync;sleep 2s;sudo poweroff’

    These are fairly easy, but just in case, I’ll attempt to explain
    them. the bye alias clears the screen and logs off.
    the c alias simply clears the screen on a terminal.
    To use the inst alias you type inst followed by the name of
    one or more packages you want to install; separate each package
    to install by one or more spaces between the names.
    The alias u will upgrade your system and add or remove/replace packages
    to keep your system up to date.
    The pow alias will synchronize itself and shut down the system and
    power it off after a short delay.

    If you know how to use .bashrc, use an editor and add these to
    your system, and you won’t need to use antix-cli-cc.
