We, old DOS users, came before any linux user.
DOS? That didn't even exist when I started working with computers. Most of my work at the time was on CP/M80 systems.

There definitly was Cut but no Copy/Paste. Cut using a scissor.
And that Teletype was doing the earthquake test with every carriage return.
