    That moment you realize you are fetishizing something that was a carbon copy of a Windows mechanism originally designed by people at Microsoft/Apple.

    I stand corrected. Thank you catloaf and lordnikon

      I don’t normally engage with comments like these but you do realize Unix predates windows by 10 years. So much so that windows used the bsd net code is some of its network stack up till windows 8

      Which part? Package installation (not windows), TUI graphics (IBM PC, predating Windows), or dialog/whiptail dialogs (1994, based on the IBM PC line drawing)?
