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.

I don't like M$, but this is my new number one recommendation for new programmers. It gets them to stay within the command line, while having the normal shortcuts they're used to from using a computer already.
I love Vim, but it's a chore to learn when you're also learning programming on top. Emacs is even worse, it tricks you by being a non-modal GUI, but your keyboard shortcuts all do something new and slightly insane now.
Although micro already exists for this.
Does Micro have normal keyboard shortcuts instead of the weird ones from nano ?
Yes, CTRL+Z undos, CTRL+S saves etc
yeah as a nano main micro is much different in keybinds I'd recommend to anyone who used nano beforehand
What’s wrong with nano though?
