micro enters the chat.

Static, portable binary with no dependencies.

Out of the box:

  • Syntax highlighting
  • Multi-line cursors like Sublime Text
  • Mouse support
  • Splits and tabs
  • Diff gutter
  • Copy and paste with system clipboard
  • Cross-platform
  • Sane key binds (ctrl-s, ctrl-c, ctrl-v, ctrl-z, ctrl-x, etc)
  • Plugin system
  • And much much more

I have nothing to do with the project but this binary is the absolute best. curl or wget to any host and away you go with effectively a Sublime Text / VSCode like in the terminal.

It’s baffling it’s not more well known and not installed by default on major distros.

I use nano because I can’t be assed to memorize key bindings, but I’ll give this a go

Hahaha
Memorize
Okay guess what the keybind for Copy is in micro
Go on, guess
YEAH THAT’S RIGHT IT’S CONTROL+C
Now guess what Paste is
YOU GOT IT
Quit? Find? Undo? Save? Open?
If you guessed anything weird, that’s on you.
My only complaint is that Ctrl+N is “find next” instead of Ctrl+G, but you can remap keybinds at will, so it’s not that big of a deal.
