They think they are movie hackers sitting in a back seat in a high speed chase going clackity clak ok got it, next light is green.

amazing thanks. i really felt in the dark prior to this.

serious question:
what are you using your text editor for that requires all these features?

i just hot down quick notes, maybe an address, quick and bare budget, or a short list of things.

the kind of things i thought people use text editors for.

more robust documents, libre office or word.

I’m not making a joke, I’m really wondering why it matters? isn’t it just notepad or what am i missing?

i use whatever is default for my distro installation. then feel “off” because it’s not notepad.

Not today, but I donate when I install or reinstall. Usually just about $50. Cause I’m old and that’s what OS’s used to cost.
