    Who doesn’t have vi/m?

    Fwiw, helix also gives visual feedback on bindings if a key is a table for mutiple bindings.

      I’m sorry I don’t see how that’s relevant to my point.

      I’m saying that of all the text editors, nano is the one that usually takes the least amount of effort to learn and set up. Both of those options require either learning or set up, so why would I choose them if convinience is what I’m after?

        I was just asking which distros don’t have vi/m. The helix point was an aside. It wasn’t combative, just curious.

          I wouldn’t know tbh. I’ve never had any reason to use anything other than nano for a terminal text editor.
