Time to burn Europe. This injustice will not stand.
Why does nano always get such hate. Surely as a quick simple text editor it does the job?
so does vim, and better most of time
I liked it a lot until it started asking me for money every time I saved a file.
Now I use the built in text editor.
What distro do you use?
What
After the first 50 or so times you save a file in the Nano text editor, it will start giving you a popup asking to buy the full version.
This is extremely annoying every single time you save a file in Nano after it starts activating
No mention of ms edit? I feel this won’t last.
ED IS THE STANDARD TEXT EDITOR
You don’t need ed, emacs can emulate it.
Defaulting to nano without consent
This is the real crime
Okay. Proceed to set up ‘ed’ as default
I’m okay with that
I don’t use Arch btw.
I was laughing out loud until I read the part on VS Code or Google Docs to “avoid ideological tensions”.
Clearly Herve Beraud is a closed source advocate, total rage bait! /s
No Vim! Vi only! Yes I know if you type “vi filename.txt” you get Vim. That’s not the point. Vi is nearly 50 years old. Have some respect.
I think the distinction is trivial. Or trivimial?
nano for lyfe! what’s the fine for a “class c user experience violation”?
Banishment to Windows.
That’s torture and a human rights violation!
eww, ok, I’ll switch to vim
You can still use nano. Just don’t make it the default for your distro or you’ll lose your Linux license.
ok, officer. thank you, officer. Am I free to go?
steals your escape key
Now, try to exit vim.@somerandomperson @madjo
Ctrl-c ZQ
I’m glad a peace was found, but go vim!
Vim has long since won the war. I say that as an emacs user who is familiar with using vim because it’s installed by default on the vast majority of computers I interact with nowadays
Awesome. And now…
- Step 2: Tabs or spaces.
More: Tabs or buffers.
4 spaces by default for indentation unless
.editorconfigsays otherwise.a tab is four spaces… press tab all you want…
Vertical or horizontal tabs?
Slazer here opening a new front in the tabs v space war
New?
Freedom of religion is a fundamental human right. Evangelization should not be punished. I protest (:
LOL, I prefer nano.
There’s always a smaller editor: pico
You’re in luck, it’s a designated neutral editor
Hello, EU police?
You pervert!
My boy nano getting a drive by. He always there for me when I need to quickly edit a conf file

nanoalready.Let’s make
microthe standard!!Nah,
ededis, in fact, in the POSIX standard.https://pubs.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/9799919799/
Shell & Utilities -> Utilities -> ed
In fact, it looks like
exandsed, both child editors ofed, are baked into the standard. Nopico-family editors.
Nice, an analognowhere I missed!
Why should micro be the standard over nano?
Because
nanohas unacceptable key combos, and no support for mouse.microhas sensible key combos, good syntax highlighting and supports mouse perfectly fine.Nano’s key combos are acceptable. Source: I accept them.
Removed by mod
make the standard
