 nano[1], the simple and easy to use editor now has syntax hi-lighting. 
 it's not the most high-tech terminal editor around but its simple and
 there's no need to sacrifice any sheep before using in (unlike emacs or
 vi which you need to be on asid before you understand how to use it). 
 
 nano doesn't come with a native PHP highlighting patterns but you can 
 find them around[2].


 note: you need the development version of nano, not the stable release.
