As Mick said, it has been a while. I think if you emerge the editor you want and change any config files that need to be changed then portage will let you unmerge nano. If I recall correctly, once some other editor is installed that will satisfy the virtual then it should let you unmerge the others without complaining. On this one tho, there may be a config that needs to be edited as well. I would search for any mention of nano in /etc and change anything that shows up containing it. Hope that helps. They do get confusing at times. Dale :-) :-) -- I am only responsible for what I said ... Not for what you understood or how you interpreted my words!
