Text editor war
Low quality meme
dipshit, Oh, vim. I wish I knew how to quit you.
Wilzax, : q !
bort, unless you accidentally pressed “q” to early and entered recording-mode…
pete_the_cat, Only if you don’t want to save the file
:x saved the file and exits.
LainOfTheWired, 
Or :wq
callyral, 
or Shift + ZZ
Wilzax, He said quit, not save and exit
bazzett, 
ZQ
Elliott, Did I mention I use Arch?
milicent_bystandr, $ pacman install $LINE_15
icedterminal,
error: no operation specified. (use -h for help)
milicent_bystandr,
- goes on web angrily muttering… Finds Arch Forum or Stack Overflow or whatever who cares… *
“Where’s the GUI for pacman? What kind of a useless distro doesn’t have a graphical package manager?! You’re all failures and akshually I use Ubuntu”
lseif,
pacman install?
milicent_bystandr, It’s been a long time…
lseif, since i last have seen my son lost to this monster
AlexSup21, the man behind the slaughter
Ildar, 
I’m the only one who use joe?
Heavybell, 
No, but it might just be us…
Siegfried, I thought this was a Joe mama joke
waldyrious, Wow, it’s the first time I come across anyone who says they use
joe. How does it differ fromnanoandmicro?Btw, I used to use
ditseveral years ago, but swapped it formicrodue to some keyboard shortcut issues (which are probably fixed now).
Ildar, it’s actually hard to say that I use it, once in five years I need to edit file in terminal - and joe just traditional for me 🤷♂️
rikudou, 
As a nano user, I fully agree.
damnthefilibuster, Seriously. Nano is the best.
Norgur, I
Seriously... it isn't

o right there with ya bud.esc :wq!
GodsKillerKirb, I HATE that I am still in the habbit of doing esc :wq whenever I want, or need, to save and quit.
onlinepersona, Both are inferior to IDEs when working locally on a software project 🤷
possiblylinux127, Not really as both VIM and Emacs are way more flexible. I use Neovim has it uses Lua for configuration and has a ton of plugins
pewgar_seemsimandroid, neovim is better than vim
kirby, neovim ftw
NoLifeGaming, Micro is great
pete_the_cat, I perfect pico
PsychedSy, Fuck pine use pico.
dansity, Just use notepad++ with wine like any normal person do
xylogx, Notepadqq is a thing, you know.
Inui, (edited ) P
Kusimulkku, That’s horrific
peopleproblems, it doesn’t matter to me.
I’ll have to Google it anyway. then complain about it, and never actually take the time to learn these neat tools
0xD, Do you like playing games? 😁
linearchaos, 
I only use Vim, but I appreciate nano as a choice and don’t even really mind visudo opening nano
somenonewho, 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, When visudo opens nano, I get unreasonably angry about it. I typed “visudo”, not “nanosudo”
Moshpirit, 
I prefer micro over nano. It’s like a middle term
captain_aggravated, 
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.
ExLisper, Jesus, why can’t people just expose their drives to cosmic radiation and have it switch the bits in the file? So much time wasted writing useless editors.
milicent_bystandr, Of course, Rebecca* has a shortcut for that, too.
*GBoard decided that was the right word when I swiped ‘Emacs’. It is now formerly-known-as-Emacs’ new name.
uis, 
ed
milicent_bystandr, C-X M-x butterfly
MTK, The only editor I need:
Create: printf “TEXT” > FILE
Add: printf “TEXT” >> FILE
No room for mistakes.
Gallardo994, Should both be the same commands. Adding should be done by remembering previous contents, no other way is allowed.
