Nano is completely ok for this. Nope, let's burn some cash and reinvent the wheel.

Instead of donating to Nano devs, or hire some of them or something.

Stupid corp at their finest.

Nano is a bare-bones editor with its own wacky key-bindings. What is the point? If I want to learn new key-bindings I'll learn a full-featured editor.

msedit's key-bindings are based on IBM CUA. It's immediately familiar to a great many people.

Nano can be configured with CUA keybindings, I do it.

But I’m glad someone wrote one of these in rust.
