  • CTRL+M is like pressing ENTER. Kernigan & Pike, 1984: UNIX Programming Enviornment

On any reasonable terminal, RETURN has a key of its own, but most control characters do not.

    tibetans

    I’m pretty sure virtually all of the Tibetan people are happy to no longer be suffering under theocratic feudalism. Happy to no longer be illiterate serfs and slaves, suffering depredation under a god-king. I doubt many of them are sad that CIA asset Dalai “suck my tongue” Lama is in exile. [1] [2]
