The brand new Microsoft Edit, which is the successor of the old MS-DOS-editor will come soon to Linux as well?
There is a discussion going on how to call ms edit executable under Linux at: https://github.com/microsoft/edit/discussions/341
Microsoft Edit is fully written in Rust. And the source-code is actually fully open-source as well under MIT license 😮.
I personally would like see them calling it dos-edit or just dosedit, since that would be kinda funny. But I understand it will be called ms-edit instead.
I know Linux already has vi, vim, neovim and nano, … and more… However is kind of ironic to see this binary be shipped to Linux distros. Of course it’s already added to Arch btw: https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/ms-edit-git
That logo looks cool af
It’s a merger of the standard
</>used to represent programming, and a pen. Pretty creative.
