I won't be able to go to the Go talk tomorrow, but a project written in Go has been working very well for me: micro, a basic but rather good text editor — https://micro-editor.github.io/ What I like about micro: · it uses standard CUA commands: Ctrl-S to save, Ctrl-Q to quit, Shift+movement to select, etc. · it's terminal only ·… but you can use the mouse to move the cursor and select stuff *even over ssh* · it's not bloody nano. It's definitely a lot easier to get beginners using micro, as it works the way you'd expect. cheers, Stewart
