Nano

GNU nano Editor

Keep in mind the “-R” option is required here. From the original nano site:

In restricted mode, nano will NOT:

  • read or write to any file not specified on the command line;
  • read any nanorc files;
  • allow suspending;
  • allow a file to be appended to, prepended to, or saved under a different file name;
  • use backup files or spell checking

If you don't use that option, do it at your own risk, as you are compromising your system's security.
