.SH NAME

nano \- Nano's ANOther editor, an enhanced free Pico Clone
|
|
.SH SYNOPSIS
|
|
.B nano
|
|
.RI [options]\ [+LINE] " file"
|

.br
|
|
.SH DESCRIPTION
|
|
This manual page documents briefly the
|
|
.B nano
|
|
command.
|
|
.PP
|
|
.\" TeX users may be more comfortable with the \fB<whatever>\fP and
|
|
.\" \fI<whatever>\fP escape sequences to invode bold face and italics,
|
|
.\" respectively.
|
|
\fBnano\fP was originally known as TIP (TIP Isn't Pico). It is a small,
|
|
free and friendly editor which aims to replace Pico, the default editor
|
|
included in the non-free Pine package. Rather than just copying Pico's
|
|
look and feel,
|
|
.B nano
|
|
also implements some missing (or disabled by
|
|
default) features in Pico, such as "search and replace" and "goto line
|
|
number".
