### Mac OS X ###

Using Homebrew (yes, I am opinionated) you can install the following tools with the following packages:

    brew install proctools # to install pgrep, pkill, etc.
    brew install pstree # to be able to use pstree
    brew install vnstat # to be able to use vnstat
    brew install ncdu # to use ncdu
    brew install ipcalc # to use the almighty ipcalc
    brew install htop # to use htop
    brew install ack # to use the awesome ack
    brew install lsof # to use the amazing lsof

### Fedora/Red Hat/CentOS ###

Using YUM you can install the tools with the following RPM packages:

    yum install psmisc # for pstree
    yum install vnstat # for vnstat
    yum install ncdu # for ncdu
    yum install initscripts # for ipcalc - should already have this, I think?
    yum install htop # for htop
