"using a terminal-based text editor

For many years I’d mostly been using a GUI version of vim/neovim, so switching to actually using an editor in the terminal was a bit of an adjustment."

For a long time my pain with this was that I often want to open an ephemeral editor while not losing context and sight of my terminal.

With a GUI editor you always get a fresh window, but in the terminal this is difficult.

Luckily

    zellij edit

solves this issue nicely for me.
