From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Bit suss on the ctrl-A start of line, because vim binding is A for append which is end of line.
Maybe I'm misunderstanding, but the commands would apply within the zsh, which is a bash alternative, not within the programmes running themselves?
Or are you saying its sus because its illogical/confusing to have opposite uses for tgebsame shirt cut? I can see that as people using a terminal and launching vim would constantly be working against "muscle memory" each time they switch which would be annoying! Being familiar with keyboard shortcuts is what can make terminal based workflows so fast.
It was a little strange in the "line movement" part they were talking about setting vim navigation on the cmd line and then putting Emacs style as aliases, of which I said it's a bit suss as it's too close to vim append.
