[GTALUG] micro: better than nano, and written in Go

[Stewart C. Russell]

I won't be able to go to the Go talk tomorrow, but a project written in
Go has been working very well for me: micro, a basic but rather good
text editor — https://micro-editor.github.io/

What I like about micro:

· it uses standard CUA commands: Ctrl-S to save, Ctrl-Q to quit,
Shift+movement to select, etc.
· it's terminal only
·… but you can use the mouse to move the cursor and select stuff *even
over ssh*
· it's not bloody nano.

It's definitely a lot easier to get beginners using micro, as it works
the way you'd expect.

cheers,

 Stewart
