> Self hostable, open source, password manager for teams One of my teams shares passwords as well. We use KeePass over WebDAV. Works for us. I fail to see the market niche here.

There was no attack. Someone read the protocol specs and used them within the allowed borders of said protocol specs to tell the protocol to generate some revenue for them. End of story.

How fitting: One of the most over-engineered desktop environments moves from one obscure hosting facility for the most unnecessarily complicated version control system to another.

Must be a Perl thing - even Epsilon’s website is a cgi one.

I stand corrected: It seems to have both versions included. Still, 250 US$ seem to be obscene.

I understand that it’s not a solution for my BSD servers then. Thank you though, I didn’t know about that and I might try it later.

Yes: TRAMP can be a bit slow, but it is very portable.

Even in CUA-mode, Emacs is very unusual in quite a lot of ways in the DOS world. That’s why, I guess.

It still feels rather different than (e.g.) TSE. Don’t misunderstand me, I surely like Emacs and I use it regularly, but the command-line version is a strange thing in a DOS environment.

I had micro as my default text editor on Windows for a while, but it felt like a nano port to me. Not sure why.

Borland surely had many editors, it seems.

For many people, Vim’s learning curve does not justify its features. Line editors are not for everyone.

Joe actually has a Windows build - right from their website. https://joe-editor.sourceforge.io By the way, there is a free semi-GUI WordStar clone named WordTsar.

Some of FAR’s best features only work inside ConEmu though. (I think that hasn’t changed in a while.)

KEDIT, the XEDIT clone? There is a free version of that, The Hessling Editor.

It does indeed! Sad that it doesn’t support UTF-8.

I find the Windows Terminal much inferior to ConEmu. Anyway, text editors specifically written for DOS environments integrate rather well with the „classic Windows console“.

GRIEF is an open-source BRIEF clone, it can probably do that. (The article made me try it. I found and reported a few macOS problems, but the Windows version seems to be functional. I might keep it.)

I am quite happy with (Acme and) GNU Emacs as my GUI editors, but Emacs is really annoying to use on a console to me, especially on non-native platforms like Windows. One of the reasons why I like the article.

The author implies that vi/Vim and an Emacs are the usual suspects here, but they’re rather foreign on Windows and DOS-like environments - which is true. Other editors in the list are - at least, UI/UX-wise - much more common to D

Why would you do that as there’s a native micro for Windows? (I, personally, find micro too nano’ish. YMMV.)

Ctrl+Z would work, or F6.
