  • I’ve wanted to move elsewhere for a long time, thing is I don’t use nano for programming, I use it for config files. For programming I use an IDE, and every time I’ve tried leaving my IDE for emacs with a language server I find I just can’t be bothered to set it up and learn it and make the move. Maybe because while I have some gripes with my current setup…they’re very minor















  • Ironically it’s actually the opposite. Linux has signals, and with the exception of SIGKILL and I think SIGABRT they can all be handled gracefully. Windows on the other hand doesn’t have signals, it can only TerminateProcess() which is forceful. The illusion of graceful termination on windows is done by sending a Window close message to all of the windows belonging to a given process, however in the event the process has no windows, only forceful termination is available due to the lack of a real mechanism to gracefully terminate processes. That’s why the taskkill command tells you a process requires forceful termination when you run it against something headless.
