I like using nano for text editing in terminal with a few tweaks:

set linenumbers
set softwrap
set tabsize 2
set nohelp

So I have line numbers and line wrapping by default, smaller tabs (the default length of 8 annoys me a lot) and I don't need the help at the bottom. For the root user I also add a red colour scheme:

set errorcolor red,black
set titlecolor white,red
set functioncolor red,black
set numbercolor black,red
set selectedcolor black,red
set statuscolor white,red
set keycolor red,black

Didn't know about the /etc/os-release file. At first I thought this would be only about uname, but I ended learning something after all :)
