      Classic DOS editor for text files, batch coding, and QBasic coding. Good times.

      I installed vim/nvim on my work windows pc. I don’t often need to edit text files in terminal, but its nice having its functionality.

      My actual issue is I need approval to install anything on any server. This might get approved since it’s MS though! Thanks.

        I think they plan on making it ship with windows by default at some point, so perhaps it’ll be in future versions of Windows Server and you won’t have to add it.
