Vim

"Vim - the ubiquitous text editor"

"Vim is a highly configurable text editor built to make creating and changing any kind of text very efficient. It is included as "vi" with most UNIX systems and with Apple OS X."

Nano is a minimal text editor that runs in the terminal.

It comes pre-installed on most Linux and Unix-like systems.


It's primary use case is for making quick edits to configuration files on your own system or a remote server via SSH.

if you need to edit a file in the terminal, on a Linux or Unix-like system, and you don't know vim or emacs; nano shall you use.
