I much prefer nano, as it=E2=80=99s intuitive, so I don=E2=80=99t have to thi=
nk to use it. If I forget what a command is, it=E2=80=99s at the bottom of th=
e screen. With vim, I have the remember =E2=80=9Cwait, how do I get into edit=
ing mode? And if I want to save a file, how do I do that again? Crap. Better =
Google a tutorial.=E2=80=9D

Sure, if I used it more, it would become second nature, but I don=E2=80=99t, =
so as more of an admin (and less of a developer) that doesn=E2=80=99t spend l=
ots of time in console editors, nano is nice.

Having said that, I don=E2=80=99t see the need to include it. Whenever I inst=
all a new system, I run a pakfire command to install nano, ncftp, telnet (for=
 administering old Cisco IP phones), wlanap, and I forget what else. No big w=
hoop, and how often does one install a new system?
