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.

+1 for the Terminus + zellij + helix combo
How does zellij do copy and paste? That's the only thing keeping me from diving into tmux (beyond using it as a persistent terminal).
I'm not sure how to paste directly into a pane, but you can copy by opening up the scrollback in EDITOR from search mode using
Ctrl+S e
. This creates a file in /tmp so I try to make sure to clear it when I'm done.I usually only copy and paste between editor windows using a script that mimics xclip (automatically used by helix), and if I need to paste a command I either edit my bash history or write a script.
