Hmmm... just typed "vim" on the command line... and then had to close
that Gnome Terminal window, because not a damn thing seemed to work,
not even the "type q to quit" suggestion on the opening window...
Nano at least has a little hints bar along the bottom of the screen,
and the keys work normally when you launch the damn thing... (plus I
still use Pinemail sometimes, and the Pine/Nano link is fairly
obvious.)
So, +1 to Daniel's "it's really not obvious that to do for someting
even simple like saving and quitting"...
Demonstrating utter *nix-noobness,
