Hiya Folks,
I don't know if any of you folk have used the editor Micro. Tried it today and have say what a nice little editor.
It is downloaded via SNAP.
It has some great features, like ctrl s for save and the old ctrl c and ctrl v works a treat for copy and paste.
And when you make an error, and haven't we all when we accidentally deleted a line in nano and poof gone. In micro
you are able to ctrl z and ctrl y, just love those.
It also allows you to use the mouse proper in the editor.
It has a lovely colour scheme selection as well.
If you have not tried it, give it a go.
I am really liking it at the moment.
regards
H

Open a terminal and type nano then hit Ctrl + g to access its help and check all the shortcut keys available, for instance, if you accidentally delete a line hit left Alt + m to undo the action which also enables/disables mouse support by the way, so you can click within the file. Nano's great, you just have to take your time in learning its very usefull key combos like Alt + 3 to comment/uncomment lines in a file.
