That wouldn't be much of a benefit for me because I don't use Nano. I don't think many people do either.
- byecomputer 6y agoI can't put my finger on what alternative you're alluding to here. Writing HTML/Markdown/whatever feels mostly the same whether I'm doing it in Nano or Notepad or VSCode, and I probably use all three of those on a daily basis depending on what I'm editing/how long/what privileges I need.
