What about vi or ed? Who cares fro user-friendlyness whan you're fixing |
| 9 |
something? ed might be a bit tedious, but at least it's hella small and it |
| 10 |
works. nvi (the same vi clone that is standard in all the BSD's) is also a |
| 11 |
nice choice, and includes ed(1). Having a vi(1) in the root mount is a nice |
| 12 |
thing to have. |

That's just an opinion of course. Gentoo needs a vi(1) in the base install |
| 15 |
anyway (IMHO). Might as well make it nvi. It's smaller as nano too: |

sh-2.05a$ ls -l /usr/bin/nano /usr/bin/vi |

-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 104632 Nov 14 18:42 /usr/bin/nano |

-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 24072 Nov 14 07:44 /usr/bin/vi |
