Oh, no doubt. I don't think Windows allows integrated terminals. It might allow it only via a "windows appearing together" hack. I'll look for more details some other time though.

hummer010: That's fair. I spend half my time with terminal based apps, and half my time with GUI apps. I've had countless python scripts that I've edited in Atom that have a :w somewhere in them because of the muscle memory of :w saves a file in Vim.
I was born after the holy wars, into an era where even Fedora has switched from Vi to Nano.

On Linux, Midnight Commander. It's nice that I can use the same one remotely through SSH.

On Windows, Total Commander. Easily worth the price tag.

No, to use up all the space for useless stuff, just install Gnome & Flatpack. You'll be out of space before you even know where all the RAM has gone.
