I only use Vim, but I appreciate nano as a choice and don't even really mind visudo opening nano

[-] somenonewho@feddit.de 7 points 2 years ago

I appreciate nano as a choice. Sure. But if visudo opens in nano and suddenly I have a bunch of "yoi:wq" in my sudoers I'll be upset.

[-] laurelraven@lemmy.blahaj.zone 4 points 2 years ago

When visudo opens nano, I get unreasonably angry about it. I typed "visudo", not "nanosudo"

[-] captain_aggravated@sh.itjust.works 6 points 2 years ago

Vim user here: Nano is a good text editor, takes a lot less training to pick up and use, and it's surprisingly capable. If I'm teaching someone how to use the Linux terminal, I'm going to teach them Nano, because they already have enough to learn. Vim is a separate class all its own.

sudo nano

[-] Isthisreddit@lemmy.world 4 points 2 years ago

Nedit - was a great simple editor i discovered on SGI IRIX, still use it today. Also, emacs is in a class of itself, it's more OS than text editor 🤣

[-] shapis@lemmy.ml 4 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

I wish I could just edit text files as sudo with the default gnome text editor instead.

nano for editing config files, emacs if I'm writing code... kwrite or joplin if I need a scratch pad or to share notes between devices respectively

[-] Creatortray@lemmy.world 4 points 2 years ago

Where’s vscode? Lol

2. Be civil
  • Understand the difference between a joke and an insult.
  • Do not harrass or attack users for any reason. This includes using blanket terms, like "every user of thing".
  • Don't get baited into back-and-forth insults. We are not animals.
  • Leave remarks of "peasantry" to the PCMR community. If you dislike an OS/service/application, attack the thing you dislike, not the individuals who use it. Some people may not have a choice.
  • Bigotry will not be tolerated.
    • 3. Post Linux-related content
  • Including Unix and BSD.
  • Non-Linux content is acceptable as long as it makes a reference to Linux. For example, the poorly made mockery of sudo in Windows.
  • No porn, no politics, no trolling or ragebaiting.
    • 4. No recent reposts
  • Everybody uses Arch btw, can't quit Vim, <loves/tolerates/hates> systemd, and wants to interject for a moment. You can stop now.
    • 5. 🇬🇧 Language/язык/Sprache

    Important: never execute code or follow advice that you don't understand or can't verify, especially here. The word of the day is credibility. This is a meme community -- even the most helpful comments might just be shitposts that can damage your system. Be aware, be smart, don't remove France.
