I just read a micro vs. nano. But each point in favor of micro was “i have that already in nano”. Syntax highlighting, status bar with col/line, undo/redo, even mouse support.
You write it up only to write it up? Sounds like two times the work with no benefit. And what if someone breaks your concentration while you write the strokes up?
Yes, but for a quick edit or glance, nano-syntax-highlight and lesspipe with highlight or bat are nice.
