Because it also sends the kill signal in every terminal I've witnessed yet... And you have it right on screen the second you start Nano.

I'm over here using Ctrl c all over the place to kill stuff...

[-] 0x4E4F@sh.itjust.works 2 points 10 months ago

Yeah, you could use that as well.

[-] GoosLife@lemmy.world 5 points 10 months ago

Can you please elaborate on the first part? It is not standard Linux terminal behavior to send the KILL signal on Ctrl+X.

[-] UnfortunateShort@lemmy.world 1 points 9 months ago

Actually, you are right. I will stand by my point that Nano tells you what to press, but I wonder where I got the stuff about Ctrl+X... I am very positive that I have used it at some point (outside of Nano), but maybe my brain is playing tricks on me 🤔
