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.

What do you think of wakib? https://github.com/darkstego/wakib-keys

It's like emacs keybindings but keep today's default/ standard keybindings and adds other layers to it.

In the past months, I tried over and over to use emacs or vim. I dislike having to switch between the "modern" way and vim or emacs inside the editor. With wakib all common shortcut are the same and it adds shortcuts for movements.

I did not yet spend too much time with it but I really like that it simply extends on what I use anyway.
