   I mean:
   - Terminal has no built-in editor, any regular text editor would work
   - QEMU has no config files, it's all command line, at best you write a shell script (I'm a brute which relies on shell history…)

     @lanodan @xue In college we had to learn about it, and were forced to use the terminal's text editor to edit the QEMU config files

     @xue @coolboymew Mew is probably just not aware of what is a shell.

     @lanodan QEMU is a tad annoying to use too. I wonder if there's easy GUI for it however

     I guess I might end up being stuck to TinyEMU…
