I used to recommend micro[1] to people like those in the target audience of this editor. I wonder if that should change or not.

Last time I checked, micro should have been called macro based on the binary file size.

There is also dte[1]. It hits exactly the same notch and offers an extremely lean editor with Unicode support, CUA key bindings and much more. It has replaced nano as my terminal editor.

IMO it should not.

`edit` doesn't even support syntax highlighting (atleast, out of the box when I tried it).
