GNU nano - an enhanced clone of the Pico text editor.
Overview
The nano project was started because of a few "problems" with the
wonderfully easy-to-use and friendly Pico text editor.
First and foremost was its license: the Pine suite does not use
the GPL or a GPL-friendly license, and has unclear restrictions on
redistribution. Because of this, Pine and Pico are not included
with many GNU/Linux distributions. Also, other features (like
go-to-line-number or search-and-replace) were unavailable until
recently or require a command-line flag. Yuck.
nano aims to solve these problems by emulating the functionality of
Pico as closely as possible while addressing the problems above and
providing other extra functionality.
The nano editor is an official GNU package. For more information on
GNU and the Free Software Foundation, please see http://www.gnu.org/.
How to compile and install nano
Download the nano source code, then:
tar zxvf nano-x.y.z.tar.gz
cd nano-x.y.z
./configure
make
make install
It's that simple. Use --prefix with configure to override the
default installation directory of /usr/local.
If you haven't configured with the "--disable-nanorc" option, after
installation you may want to copy the doc/nanorc.sample to your
home directory, rename it to ".nanorc", and then edit it according
to your taste.

Mailing Lists and Bug Reports
Savannah hosts all the nano-related mailing-lists.
+ info-nano@gnu.org is a very low traffic list used to announce
new nano versions or other important information about the
project.
+ help-nano@gnu.org is for those seeking to get help without
wanting to hear about the technical details of its development.
+ nano-devel@gnu.org is the list used by the people that make
nano and a general development discussion list, with moderate
traffic.
To subscribe, send email to <name>-request@gnu.org with a
subject of "subscribe", where <name> is the list you want to
subscribe to.
For general bug reports, please file a description of the problem
on the Savannah bug tracker page for nano
(https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?group=nano). The issue may have
already been reported, and we are better able to track the state
of the issue and whom to notify when fixed, the more the bug
tracker is used.
Current Status
GNU nano has reached its fifth stable milestone, 2.4.x.
Development of new features will continue in the 2.5.x branch,
while 2.4.x versions are dedicated to bug-fixing and polishing.
