On: micro – A Modern Alternative to nano

[Aloha]

Alt-G brings that up apparently.

Control-G brings up help

There is also some sort of comment mode

I love micro for having mouse mode by default.

I use it to debug containers and short-lived VMs, because it’s easier to copy/paste stuff than configuring neovim (which I would normally use).

However! “Help” doesn’t start with G. That’s a bit weird. And someone mentioned ctrl-c. That’s a bit weird too ;)

For what it's worth, ^G is [G]et help. And ^H can be/usually is backspace. It's only one letter off alphabetically. :)

Appreciated :)

Just, not a natural idiom, when that is the operative philosophy of the project.

Clearly armchair criticism from me, as no one can name something I’ve made as cool as micro. Perfectionism isn’t always great, kids!
