Response to a recent claim that Ctrl+D in the terminal is like pressing Enter. It kind of is but it’s also misleading to say so without further explanation.

I don’t get the reference. This is the first time I’ve read that claim. But I’d certainly hope people know there is a difference between End Of Line and End Of File… I mean they’re alike, they both end something. But it’s not the same thing. The article explains the details how it’s handled.
Yeah, my bad. I should have linked to the previous post: https://discuss.tchncs.de/post/32637183 (not entirely sure what’s the etiquette for linking to posts on Lemmy is).
Right, I must have scrolled past it. I think linking posts is fine. I mean they’re public and this is social media… At least I do it somewhat regularly and I’ve never had anyone complain.
I meant what’s the link to use since the same Lemmy post can be viewed through different instances and on each it has a different URL. It’s a bit user-hostile that the link gets you out of your instance (unless you’re on the same instance as author of the post).
