In GNU nano 7.2 (the latest as of this posting, as far as I know), why does Ctrl+Delete delete entire words but not Ctrl+Backspace? How do we restore its correct functionality?

    I cannot stand the yuhjklbn or whatever navigation! How do you even memorize that? It’s so counterintuitive…

      My arrow keys work perfectly fine in vim.

      Vi is not vim.

      How can you say you prefer ^W ^T text to search enter text to replace it with enter

      to: :s/text to search/text to replace/gcenter

        Dude, I tried gvim and I just cannot make heads or tails of its control scheme. It’s Geany for me; your brain is bigger than mine.
