Warp Terminal changes pricing model

I’m not a huge fan of Warp, but I would love for any other terminal to copy its text editor-style input field.

It’s so much nicer for 90% of my terminal usage (long multi-line commands, etc.) And when you do need TUI behavior that 10% of the time, just toggle it off.

M-x shell :)

I loved that from Warp too. Went back to iTerm because Warp was regularly consuming more than 1GB of RAM. I also don't want anything related to AI reading my terminal commands.

The fish shell has multi line editing, completion explanations, and completion and history selection. Terminal integration could make these features even better. But Warp's account wall disqualified it for me.

iTerm2 users who want AI integrated in their terminal, including free/open weight models can do that [1].

Why not just type “fc” and edit your multiline command in a real editor? (Like you’ve been able to do since at least the 1980s).

I know I’m going to come across as a bitter old geezer, but with a lot of things like this the “features” seem to be pale imitations of things which already exist and the real root problem is people just don’t invest the time to learn the tools they already have.

Most shells can help with this. vim mode helps, zsh also has 'edit-command-line' that can open the command in an editor but idk if it has a keybind by default.

That ZSH feature is builtin to readline, so you can use it in a ton of shells.

Thanks for the recommendation! I'd heard of fish but didn't realize that was a feature. It seems quite nice.

Wow TIL about fc. Thanks for mentioning.

Very very happy to help. Enjoy!
