JOE [0] for editing directly in terminal (Linux, macOS)
Somebody gave me Slackware Linux [1] floppies in 1994 and schooled young me on worlds beyond MS-DOS and Windows 3.11 For Workgroups; I had accidentally discovered MS-DOS Editor [2] by being frustrated one day and typing edit into the command line (while muttering "HOW DO I EDIT A FILE?", barely understanding what a file was in the first place), so I was shown that JOE was like edit but also way better. The UI and keybindings ended up burned into muscle memory, so I just kept using it, and still do -- and there's basically no point in ever replacing it now or starting to use emacs/vi/etc instead lol
