1. not everyone knows how to use vi

We probably should change to nano-tiny, because (a) it's tiny and (b)
it supports neither syntax (though it isn't modal, so maybe it's
closer to Emacs), so nobody can complain that the other syntax is
supported but theirs isn't. :-)
1) nano-tiny is bigger than ae by ~10K
2) nano-tiny has all of the library disadvantatges of ae. It carries all
of the libraries that ae does. The hidden advantage of elvis is that it
only carries symbols from libc and libncurses (for reference, true pico
also only carries libc and ncurses...)
