Edit a file, writing a quick shell script or whatever in the terminal. Nano is great. I don’t see any use in learning vim or emacs. If I need something more I’m going use a gui editor anyway.
Don’t get triggered anyone it’s just my preference
I get it, for a power user, vim is probably incredibly powerful. However, I just want to edit text files. I don’t want a text editor where I need a cheat sheet just to save my changes and quit.
Funny, that’s what I hate about Nano. The key binds seem completely random to me and the programs solution to this is to display a cheatsheet on the screen
nano friends rise up!
Looks like you only got one so far.
nah you’re wrong
Why do you all say that? There were no replies when I added mine so that’s why I said what I said.
There are dozens of us!
I like Nano. I think it is quite good. There, I said it.

Thanks, I finally got my access to the terminal back.
