Thank you. What makes the learning curve bad in your opinion? I only tried it for a few minutes.

It’s just wierd. Sort of vim-ish, but mostly not. The bindings are really NIH - makes sense to the author, I guess, but it could have been so much easier if a few more of the key bindings were shared with… anything else. It’s an entirely new modality I have to switch to whenever I use it.

I think the biggest stumbling block is that it’s almost vim key bindings, and the muscle memory betrayed me in the cases where it isn’t. I still have to bring up the help occasionally for the stuff I use less frequently, b/c I can’t trust it’ll be something sensibly from vim or readline.

Linux

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 β€œLinux” in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.
