Version update icon on desktop
This is particularly interesting, as it uses rsync to only download the differences of the current version:

EasyOS version 2.3.6 is due out very soon, with the above new features, and built with Debian Buster 10.5 DEBs. This is to be considered as a release candidate for 2.4. Testers welcome to get any bugs out of 2.3.6, then will build 2.4 and announce it on Distrowatch.

I think you need to use something like tmux to get tabs/dual panes with nnn.

The author of nnn suggests not memorizing key shortcuts,
he suggests using ? a lot, to display the shortcut key help.
