edit.com was a fantastic text editor. So easy, so intuitive. Never understood why nano wasn't able to compete. Anyways, I'm nowadays a user of "micro" on linux for text editing.

I totally agree.
I use Tilde myself, which is very close.

I have written about it:
"Tilde, a text editor that doesn't work like it's 1976"

Nobody got the gag in the title. 1976 was when Vi first appeared.
Hey, thanks. I've installed and tried out. The opening menu explained the key settings and it was just Edit from MSDOS. Very good, they even improved to exit the editor using ^Q.
I really don't know why so many people are against having a bar with menus and using the arrows to navigate. It is intuitive and easy, that editor really hit the spot. Thank you for the tip.
