if WSL for windows is added as suggested in a previous issue, as a basic way to view/edit/read files, Nano could be introduced. (Of course understand if lesson already too full)
It has less "barrier" to entry than vim with more basic keyboard commands.

Open a file:
nano filename.txt
To save a file ctrl + s
To exit file ctrl + x
Navigate using keyboard arrow keys

Using a text editor such as Nano is good and should be demonstrated. It would allow a reduction in typing very long sequences of commands.
