Nanook

 — (Shoreline, WA, USA)
Mostly things like yank cut-n-paste, and it deals properly with international two-byte character sets, but nvi has those same advantages PLUS has fully implemented ex command set. Nano is fine for quick notes or sending an e-mail but not so good for editing large sets of code. Anyway, he probably is thinking of another chick because "she" looks too much like a "he".

Well, if you want a no-frills editor for basic tasks like editing configuration files, Nano is probably a better choice due to its simplicity. However, if you're a developer or power user who needs advanced features, extensive customization on the site, and plugin support, Vim will likely be a better long-term option despite its steeper learning curve.
