From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Warp for Linux, Rust-based Terminal (lemmy.world)

Warp is the modern, Rust-based terminal with AI built in so you and your team can build great software, faster.

Believe this terminal has been out for a while on other platforms, but just hit the linux market too. Personally been looking forwards to this one for a while, but don't have any prior experience with it - so kinda hoping its as good as it looks.

Edit: Some fair points in comments that terminals shouldn't need cloud login. Personally thought that was an optional thing for people who wanted sync capability.

I just installed Konsole to try it out. CTRL + Arrows to jump between words works, but this also works in Blackbox and Gnome Terminal. :D

CTRL + SHIFT + Arrows for selecting words, SHIFT + Arrows for selecting characters, nor deleting selected text doesn’t work in Konsole, Blackbox, nor Gnome Terminal.

My bad, I was wrong. The selection mode in Konsole is indeed very wonky. From the manual:

Selection Mode
Konsole has a selection by keyboard mode. In this mode it is possible to move around the scroll-
back and select text without the mouse.
Enter and leave this mode by using the keyboard shortcut (Ctrl+Shift+D by default).
Moving the cursor: Arrows, PageUp, PageDown, Home, End.
Moving the cursor vi style: h,j,k,l, to move one character, Ctrl+b,f,u,d for page up/down or half
page up/down.
Select text by using Ctrl or Shift with arrows, or by using V to start selection, moving the cursor
and then V again to end selection. Shift-V selects whole lines, instead of characters.
