Nano, the simple editor every one loves to rag on for being overly simple, does actually support cursor cut n paste. (Hold shift and move the cursor. Then cut or paste.)
set mouse
set nowrap
set softwrap
With those three lines in ~/.nanorc, it now allows you to click n drag the mouse, and may work over ssh, depending on your terminal support, and wraps lines without inserting actual breaks.
It effectively is Notepad, as far as I'm concerned.
- iteratorloopmap 7y agonano isn't very weak, I have modified nanorc substantially and also have binded many keys. It works better than, say, notepad++ on windows. For those who aren't touch typists, or occasional users, nano is just more comfort than vim or emacs. And there is a editor named `micro`, which is similar to nano but has more features including bracket completion etc.. I am delaying switch because it is written in go (being unavailable in repos) and anyway I haven't found time to configure it. But it is scriptable in lua..
