Use JOE
Connor Davis
leafpad is fine
Levi Hughes
I use nano for editing configs and the like. It works fine. It has plenty of options, like find, find and replace, go to line, etc. Generally all you need for basic text editing.

This is complicated enough Joe, I don't need your old shit making it more complicated
I adore leafpad,but the autistic side of my brain is curious about emacs
Bentley Roberts
Agreed, but I'm on Parrot OS from a lifetime of using Windows
Once I see a rabbit hole, I jump in as far as I can

Jacob Reed
why should I use some shitty and hard program when I can just use nano. does everything I need. for syntax stuff, I use that notepad++ linux version that i cannot name right now
Juan Bennett
Because it's Linux all over again
Both learning curve and usefulness
Christian Lewis
nano for general stuff, but I can get by in vi/vim
sublime in windows but faffing around with vscode just now
I'm trying to remember what editor I first used - anyone know what the cromemco z-2d shipped with under cdos or cromix?
Jack Sullivan
Who cares
Code is code end of the day whether notepad or emacs
Sebastian Hill
The only OS I know of which comes with emacs bundled is macOS. ed, vi/vim and nano on the other hand are usually standard on most *nixes. But bash by default uses emacs keybindings. Really makes you think
Michael Brown
Is Emacs that much better than Vim? Vim is pretty good.
Justin Campbell
see
gnu.org
not better
just more developed
Everything has pros and cons

Nano (or even the original UW PICO if you're using a non-GNU Unix system) is a pretty comfy editor if you use it for what it was made for, writing emails.
Hunter Cox
move aside, boomers, or get with the times!

Unusable trash. Autism is a system requirement.

Pretty decent for a text based text editor designed to be used by human beings. To be clear I don't consider people with autism to be human beings.
Samuel Roberts
Emacs has an ACM paper written for it.
Colton Phillips
In reality, the knife would be the original vi - that really does one thing well.
vim is bloated enough to implement a C compiler in (github.com
Also ed would be a prison shiv.

Nano is great for editing config files, don't let anyone tell you otherwise. Simple interface, shows all commands at the bottom, fast and lightweight.
Owen Campbell
No offense dude
But emacs have 40+ years of development
en.wikipedia.org
Vim and Vi don't come close
But use what works for you, end of the day it's your choice
Joshua Baker
Agreed
I love nano, but the Emacs bug bit me
Now i'm opening and closing the dam program
Elijah Roberts
Yeah, this desu. And that's all I ever need to do in Linux with one of these text based text editors.
Eli Price
Do any of you people have jobs?
t. Visual Studio user
Kayden Myers
Yep, SWE at Google.
Luis Ward
Nano for text editing, a real IDE for programming.
Xavier Clark
i use notepad++ because i dont have autism and use NT based operating systems
Liam Morales
whatever the fuck i feel like at the time.
Daniel Bailey
>But emacs have 40+ years of development
Hurd has 40 years of development too, and it barely works in a VM
length of development isn't a good metric of performance, or anything else for that matter
Brayden Collins
I really feel bad for people who weren't vaccinated as children.
Just look at what this guys putting himself through.
Breaks my heart.
Easton Johnson
vim and emacs are for amateur hobbyists.
Professionals are using commercial IDE
Carter Kelly
poo in loo
Kevin Turner
i like it but the logo is kinda shit tho
also open source is not a good term to use, vscode is open source as well, but that doesn't make it the same as vscodium
