I used to recommend micro[1] to people like those in the target audience of this editor. I wonder if that should change or not.

There is also dte[1]. It hits exactly the same notch and offers an extremely lean editor with Unicode support, CUA key bindings and much more. It has replaced nano as my terminal editor.

I'd recommend everyone to take a look and read some of dte's source code. It's a great example of beautifully written modern C code.
