[woody-discussion] editors: nano-2.9.3 --with-slang --enable-tiny



nano is an editor, a free pico clone, its at http://www.asty.org/nano/

nano can now compile against slang, and there is an option to disable
some features to make a smaller version.

With both these options enabled it compiles down to 36812 Bytes after
strip -s

ae is 23888 Bytes, they both have the same dependencies listed, so the
difference between them as far as size goes isnt really significant,
depending on how the libraries minimize of course.

IMHO nano doesn't have the cluttered look of ae, and is simpler to use,
so it should appeal to lots of people.

Its *way* to early to be talking about editors i know, but seems i got a
mention in the Changelog (for an initial patch to do slang support) i
thought i may as well do a shameless plug :)


Thanks 

Glenn McGrath
