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.

CLI Editors with Distrobox? (lemmy.world)

How do you all handle this? I'm going to start poking around with NixOS but anticipate Python dev to be impossible on the base OS, so curious what sorts of options y'all use when connecting your configured editor to a container- e.g. if I have Neovim configured in my host, is it better to re-set-up Neovim again with the same dotfiles in the container and dev in the container, or connect the editor to the container somehow?

My gut is saying it's probably cleaner to set up an editor inside the container, just not sure I want to do that every time I start a project.

Neovim is not a CLI editor, it is a TUI editor. If you want a CLI editor, use ed or ex.
