How to use vim in 2 simple steps:
1- Pretend to use vim
2- Use nano like a normal person
ESC ESC ESC :q
Am I a bad person for using Visual Studio Code?
You are just normal and sane
I upvoted because yes, you are bad and you should feel bad.
You obviously didn't get the memo that you are supposed to only work in a text shell.
Or Micro, if you're a filthy casual like me
Jesus, how much more basic can you really get than nano?
Ed or just sed
Micro?
Who cares about labels, Micro is the bomb
I tried nano, but none of the standard key combination would let me save or quit.
you can always edit /etc/nanorc if you don't like the stock keyboard shortcuts
Like, with vim?
That's why it's so nice that nano helpfully displays the keyboard shortcuts on the screen.
No indeed they wouldn't, but it's still not as bad as vim.
Nano is life.
I know how to use Vim, but then I switched to Colemak, and now I don't know how to use Vim.
