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 ๐ฎ.
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
The proper answer is don't even touch that xit. It could be a front for automatic AI installs or something where you learn that you can opt out of it but 5 years after they stole the data.
Microsoft is a totally evil company and so is meta, yahoo and Google.
