You’re looking at the full mc package rather than just mcedit. Even then, Midnight Commander is absolutely worth that whopping 7.9MB of space it takes for all the functionality it provides.
Openwrt is not an example to use to compate against a package size, as it’s target built to fit into small firmware storage spaces on all sorts of random hardware. That’s comparing existential philosophy with oranges.
Would you download a car?
The only Dad advice you nerds need:
mcedit from the Midnight Commander (mc) tool is the superior text editor.
I don’t even run arch, btw.
We are truly living in a time.
OH LOOK A CONF FILE TO EDIT.
Full circle, bitches.
The only happily ever after I need is an Act IV in the hells, as best girl Karlach and I wade through rivers of demon blood as we kill our way to Zariel, while Wyll stays behind in BG to defend his city like a little Bruce Wayne.
What do you use, sand?
Just think of strings as the objects.

Those are rookie numbers son, you gotta get on that.
You need to update your ISO.
Well, now they just make you throw out the old Mac hardware and buy new for $1299 (8gb RAM lol) because it’s now out of support for the latest MacOS and the newest versions of Adobe Suite/MS Office/insert productivity work related proprietary software suite here is on board with Apple’s bullshit and won’t run on older MacOS versions.
The more things change, the more they stay the same.
What if I told you you can make a backup of a config file and edit a single line in a conf file, all with a single line of bash?
sudo cp config.conf config.conf.bak.$(date +"%Y%m%d%H%M%S") && sed -i 's/^\(CONFIG_NAME\s*=\s*\).*/\1new_value/' config.conf
Yeah, totally.
Just imagine trying to do this with Windows Powershell, without a package manager like chocolatey to make it simple like linux…
$workdir = "c:\installer\"
If (Test-Path -Path $workdir -PathType Container)
{ Write-Host "$workdir already exists" -ForegroundColor Red}
ELSE
{ New-Item -Path $workdir -ItemType directory }
$source = "https://download.mozilla.org/?product=firefox-latest&os=win64&lang=en-US"
$destination = "$workdir\firefox.exe"
if (Get-Command 'Invoke-Webrequest')
{
Invoke-WebRequest $source -OutFile $destination
}
else
{
$WebClient = New-Object System.Net.WebClient
$webclient.DownloadFile($source, $destination)
}
Start-Process -FilePath "$workdir\firefox.exe" -ArgumentList "/S"
Start-Sleep -s 35
rm -Force $workdir/firefox*
Dope is 100% also used for weed. Maybe just less common for the younger gens.

It was a tongue in cheek joke, calm yourself, this isnt reddit.
But it’s also a valid, if cheeky, point that it wasnt really a fresh from scratch effort.
NT was written from scratch
You mean OS/2 3.0?
When development started in November 1989, Windows NT was to be known as OS/2 3.0, the third version of the operating system developed jointly by Microsoft and IBM.
If Red Hat wasn’t owned by IBM, I’d maybe give a flying fuck about being amused.
/still salty
Stop acting like a redditor.
We call that Arch.
