題目: Re: [DNG] Proposed editor change
I am an avid VIM user, and I despise VI.

If devuan is about choice you can always apt-get install vim-minimal after
the default install.

Nano is a better choice for anyone, because it is not as large as VIM.
Emacs is also not intuitive.


I see no real obvious reason to default to vi instead of nano except
that it was the default editor in some unix platform (and still is in some
other).

Nano, is not VI, but it's still in the spirit. A small unix tool that does
one thing
good, and excel at it. It is a simple and intuitive editor.

VIM is a wonderful IDE, scripting language, terminal multiplexer and to a
certain
degree a religion too ([I worship it too][1]). This are all wonderful
traits, but not
necessarily a trait for a default installation.

These are my two cents.

Imagine there's no countries
it isn't hard to do
Nothing to kill or die for
And no religion too
Imagine all the people
Living life in peace
