Yes, vim is a command line program.
If you look up “Cli file manager”, there’s a bunch that you can check out and try.
Tree, grep, and find are usually my three go-tos. Tree to get a general view of a ton of nested files/folders, then if I know a name I’ll use find . -name "filename"
, if I know a bit of contents, i’ll use `grep -re “content string” to find files containing that.
I recommend reading the man pages because you can often chain together these in fairly powerful ways.
I found a brother laser printer for 8 bucks at a thrift store and it printed with linux over USB as soon as I got it home without any tweaking.
I then directly networked it to a raspberry pi, configured it with cups and shared the printer over my network. Every device was able to discover it instantly and I can print from anything, android phone, ipad, mac, linux laptop, etc.
It’s absolutely freeing. I found an OEM toner cartridge for like 30 bucks, so I have like 2000 bw prints ready to go for like 40 dollars all in.
