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

A terminal editor named Nice Editor (ne). It just makes sense. Ctrl+s saves, Ctrl+q quits. It's a suped up nano with sensible keyboard shortcuts.
I think you'll like an editor called micro.
I use it on distros that don't have easy access to ne in their package manager.
But those keybindings usually control flow...
Yeah, OP, this sounds nice but what terminal are you using that doesn't capture Ctrl+S and Ctrl-Q?
