I’m talking about programs that can’t be improved no matter what. They do exactly what they’re supposed to and will never be changed.

It’ll probably have to be something small, like cd or pwd, but does such a program exist?

    Many might disagree, but imo vim is the perfect text editor for a command line interface. It’s just so simpel and does exactly what I need it to do without doing anything unnecessary

        Never heard of vim9script, what is it. I must admit I don’t use it for a lot of super complicated tasks just regular yaml and file editing. At for that it’s perfect imo

        Might install that then in the future, if I remember it. Sudo apt-get install vim is just so ingrained in muscle memory

      Nit: vim is a visual editor. It has a text interface, but it’s not a command line interface.

      An example of a command line text editor would be sed.

        I know it isn’t a cli but a text editor that you can use in a terminal, if there’s any other difference i got wrong feel free to correct me
