What does nano do that vi (or emacs) doesn't? Given that vi is the
standard editor on *nix ity would seem the obvious choice. But everyone
seems to be using nano? Why?
AFAIK, it's a little smaller/faster than emacs...

My recommendation to you, since you love notepad++ and are obviously

In [14]: for x, y in bar[0], bar[1]:
