I am seriously contemplating to write an article with the title: "How Alt-m changed my world"
@ljgww_rb don't keep us in suspense...what does it do?

@skryking that magnificant combination puts Emacs in command mode (as far as I have understood the FM - it surely did something as something finally has happened as expected).

So now I can finally start looking how to open some file to edit and then save it (or even more spooky operation - ignore the changes).

@skryking
So far It took me only 5 days to figure this out with a lot of RTFM and when this did not render anything then a lot of help of experienced and kind developers of spacemacs on github (who read frustrated users posts)

I wandered how world would look like if I had to spend all this activity to use my first internet browser (that was once upon a time. I believe some 1994, and it was called Mosaic)

@ljgww_rb I also have some not so fond memories of Mosaic and trying to get it to work through winsock and a dial up to a university computer.
@skryking Let me guess - it was called Trumpet Winsock ?
@ljgww_rb i believe it was 😎
