Re: [MLUG] nano editor?

[Aaron Littich <EMAIL:PROTECTED>]

I was wondering about pico. I do lots of C programming (or i did at one
time) and i like using the Home and End keys to get different places in
the line faster.  How do i enable these keys in pico? When i try to use
them it says "invalid" or "undefined key" or something like that.
