OK, let's start from scratch. You're at your Pi, not at a desktop. You find typing `nano' followed by Enter at the shell's prompt gives the error about the unknown terminal type. If you then enter, on one line, `TERM=vt220 nano', and press Enter then nano should be happy and start up. > > https://www.mail-archive.com/dorset@mailman.lug.org.uk/msg08641.html > > https://www.mail-archive.com/dorset@mailman.lug.org.uk/msg08644.html > > Those two sigs look exactly the same to me in Chromium and in KMail.
