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.

After all that, no
^Sto save 🥲^Sfor unprompted save is in the default keybinds, not that I could say when it was added. (Pretty sure it wasn't apicothing, but that leaves quite a bit of time unaccounted for.)Muscle memory for other editors kicked in when I was editing something and did a literal slow realisation and double-take when it worked.
Now if only I could stop pressing
^Win Firefox to usenano's "whereis" to find something that'd be great.For those unaware, it closes the current tab. Or the whole browser. Ugh.
:GASP:
^Sdoes save! I have played myself for a fool all these years!!Now I just have to unlearn
^X, Y, enter. . . :thisisfine:Firefox desperately needs a way to customize keyboard shortcuts, especially to disable them. Shortkeys isn't really enough.
FYI:
ctrl+shift+tbrings back closed tabs.True. Other tools include: Ctrl+Shift+N to bring back a closed window if there's another window of the same browser instance still open, and when there isn't, there's Restore Previous Session which is accessible a couple of ways.
Neither bring back the comment that was being typed in a textbox on the page though. Guess when I usually
^WTrue, I remember the first time I used nano, I was like "Ctrl + O to save, huh?"
^Sworks!! ...As revealed by our kind palindromic friend on the other sibling comment! Why they don't just list it on the statusbar we would never know!Probably because Ctrl+S is the shortcut for scroll lock on the terminal so it can be a bit problematic if you start using it when not in nano. It freezes the output and you have to use Ctrl+Q to unlock.
Makes sense! I should go check what my Zellijn configs are set to on the servers 🤔
