I think one command line editor should really be
enough. Whether this is vim or nano I don't really
care about, but since we always had vim (even BeOS),
I would vote for that one. If you really need another
command line editor, just go ahead and install it.
If a choice -has- to be made, I would say that the people
who prefer vim are more likely to know how to install it.
I´m definitely not opposed to having both vim -and-
nano, but I am opposed to only having vim, since
clearly that is an editor that a majority of people
(out there) don´t know and don´t want to learn.
(The point can be made that the same people don´t want
to use the CLI shell at all. What a coincidence! ;)
Could it be because people find it unintuitive and not
self-explanatory enough?)
Minor issue - which editors to include - I know, but I
find it interesting to question the CLI as a freehaven
for (only) developers and experienced users / with a
high tolerance for a steep learning curve.
