But just today my colleague asked what parameter add to a configuration file. He asked me should it be before or after this line? I told him before, he added it after. He had to select the line with the mouse, copy the text, go above, paste it, go back and delete the line character by character.

I mean, not too bad; but I was feeling very bad while seeing it happen.

^K Cut and ^U Uncut (paste) were on the screen the WHOLE time this happened.

"The instructions are on screen at all times!" is only a positive if you follow the instructions, otherwise they are wasting space.

What does that do?

[–] bisby@lemmy.world 2 points 2 hours ago (1 children)

Moves the current line up 2 lines.

It's "2" because the syntax is actually "move to after -2". So if you are on line 20, it will move you to after line 18... Aka line 19

Ah, that makes sense. Thanks for explaining.
