I install nvim - to a new user it looks exactly like vim... I created an alias and I'm gonna use it this next week - and check its GitHub to maybe find some useful differences...

Thats rad!! I started by running thru Vim tutor 'vimtutor'. 1st week I was supposed to learn basic navigation and 'things' - but I just learned the BARE minimum... 2nd week I said I was gonna try nvim, which I am - but I thought I'd know more by now... 

The neat part, tho, is that I already know I'll never go back to nano - so this week I'm just gonna try to learn more of the commands... prolly do 'vimtutor' again... if you just jump in, it becomes a usable tool immediately - and I know that its super powerful if you do learn the things that I haven't yet. :P

sudo apt remove nano
pacman -R nano
rhino-pkg uninstall nano
:P
