I was there and it felt like the biggest betrayal when they essentially
closed off RH proper and made it Enterprise. My original training was on
RH; have never used it since. Although, I do still absolutely love CentOS.

Agreed, and I have absolutely no issue with RH's business model now with
paid support. I'm fully on board with paying for good work. Just not
sure why they needed to essentially close off the distro to the
community? They could have left it like Canonical, have only one OS,
allow anyone to download/install the OS free of charge and have anyone
who wants/needs support to pay for it. That would have be fine and the
community wouldn't have come down on them so badly.

Ctrl+c works too. Many of my colleagues (who still use nano) would
always use as an excuse that they hated vim because Esc was too
unnatural and would force your hands off the keyboard's home row, didn't
know about either key combination. No more excuses ;)

Agreed. And thanks again for all you share and add to this NG.
