You really must try BasicLinux sometime, George.
Just unzip and go.  No worries.  Runs in a ramdisk,
not on your HD.  Includes the full bash shell, a basic
set of libraries (including ncurses) and *two* editors:
nano (a small pico clone) and e3.  Normally, I would
avoid such redundancy; however I was so impressed by the
compact coding of e3 (6kb) that I added it to BasicLinux
a couple of years ago.

Cheers,
Steven
