[SOLVED] Are these yaourt and pacaur commands the same?

Any reason to use one over another?

Thank you for your help.

No AUR helpers are officially supported, see the matrix in the end of this page and decide for your self.

After reading the title, I expected to see some commands in your post ... but there aren't any. So what are you asking: are yaourt and pacaur the same? Of course not. I mean I don't know what your definition of "same" is, but clearly they are not identical. They both - along with countless other tools - fill a similar general niche, but asking if they are the same is like asking if vim and emacs are the same.

Excuse me I'll try to explain
For my vim it is easier to handle because I know many commands
For my Emacs it is more complicated to use because I do not dominate the commands but I know it is more free software than vi.

Yaourt has more packages than pacaur? Or do they have the same packages?
Is pacaur more free software than yaourt or is it the same?
Thanks in advance and excuse my English!

Could you explain what you mean by more packages? Where do you believe yaourt and pacaur obtain packages from?

Er, no.

Perhaps jaume is equating emacs being under the GPL3 as being more free than vi being under a BSD style license but this does seem to be going off topic.

If you forgive! It's off topic
