Dave,
Am I missing something?
As a beginner to Linux, why do I need to learn to use a terminal-based text editor?
In the past whenever I needed to create or modify a text file, I would just use my familiar word processor
and save my work in .txt to be copied wherever it was needed, be it to a database, software programming, etc

Nano is the default terminal-based text editor in Ubuntu and many other Linux distributions. Though it is less complicated to use than the likes of Vim and Emacs, it doesn’t mean Nano cannot be overwhelming to use.
In
this beginner’s guide, I’ll show you how to use the Nano text editor. I
am also going to include a downloadable PDF cheat sheet at the end of
the article so that you can refer to it for practicing and mastering
Nano editor commands.
If you are just interested in a quick summary of Nano keyboard shortcuts, please expand the next section.
