I shall take a peek. I don't plan on upgrading to W11 so notepad won't even be a thing anymore anyways.
Oh wait, if you are not familiar with Vim or Neovim, then this won't be for you probably. It works completely different compared to a regular text editor and is somewhat complicated and for terminal. There are benefits to it why that is, but just so you know its not a "normal" editor. This is just a warning. :D
In example the keys
h
,j
,k
,l
are used to move the cursor in the editor and every key is a special command basically. You have to switch into editing mode to type in text.I've used vim in the past, normally stuck with nano though. It won't be a big shock with how different it is. My daily driving is current windows so never bothered with much else other than notepad++ but come October I'm formatting all drives in my house to rid myself of anything windows related and starting fresh with some Linux flavor. Most likely ubuntu or mint, haven't settled yet
