Micro, a better nano
When you hear about powerful terminal text editors the only real options most people think of is vim and emacs. Most people who don’t use these text editors claim that nano is the best because its the easiest. You “don’t need” a powerful text editor. I really dislike this ideology because people end up using a awful editor which can’t be extended at all. I can’t suggest emacs because of how long and unintutive its default keybindings.
