This thread reminded me of an issue that I tried to fix about a month ago
or so, with no luck. There was some type of error in the binary
repositories for the Unix that I use when I previously tried to install
Nano. I tried again just awhile ago an got the program Nano installed,
tested it, worked just fine. It was a version issue with the "pkg_add"
command calling the correct version, but the server not serving
the right one. Glad they got it resolved finally.
Vi works OK, but requires me to read a lot before I can even use it most of
the time. Nano I'm used to.
Thanks guys for reminding me that I had unfinished business with a Unix
text editor.
