> GUIs are bloatware. Why stop there? Most terminal editors are bloatware! "When I use an editor, I don't want eight extra KILOBYTES of worthless help screens and cursor positioning code! I just want an EDitor!! Not a 'viitor'. Not a 'emacsitor'. Those aren't even WORDS!!!!"[0] GUI and terminals both have their place. There is no single combination of software that perfectly covers everyone's use cases. By all means, share details about the environment that works best for you, but blanket statements like that just create controversy. Besides, modern terminals are really just GUIs designed to use the keyboard as the only peripheral. You don't necessarily need a REPL interface to support that use case.
