Used Nano on Linux distros which were strict GNU followers, e.g. Debian. At least, until I was able to muddle my way around vi(m). Thankfully that only took a short while...

I use it occasionally with systems on which I have not yet installed emacs.

Started programming in this rickety hunk of an editor.

I hate this editor. I reconfigure my Ubuntu to get Vim as default instead.

This is my favorite text editor. Once it has better undo/redo support I will be using all the time. I like how simple it is, and modeless. As much as I like vim, I prefer modeless text editors.

Only used nano because the damn thing is the default for EDITOR on Ubuntu.
