You might see it yourself: K for cut, very intuitive , ^ for „Press <ctrl> key, even more intuitive. As with vim, you have to have some prior knowledge to use nano (and you don’t have something like the famous "vi cup“ at hand :-) ). And nano "hijacks" 4 lines from the already few lines you have on a text terminal on the newly installed server (or on your server in emergency mode, even more stressful). I can't understand the "missionary zeal" that some people bring into the field for Nano. It is more a question of knowledge and, above all, of requirements for the editor. Nano as default for Workstation may have some merit, but as default for server it makes more sense to use vim. _______________________________________________ users mailing list -- users@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe send an email to users-le...@lists.fedoraproject.org Fedora Code of Conduct: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/code-of-conduct/ List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/users@lists.fedoraproject.org Do not reply to spam on the list, report it: https://pagure.io/fedora-infrastructure
