Hello there. I hated not having nano available in most of the sense roms, so I finally figured out how to get it running. I have attached the zip file containing everything you need.

Step 1 - Copy all of the files in the zip file to their respective directories. The only thing you might have to change is the su.d script in /su. If you do not have /su/su.d, place the script in /etc/init.d. If you do not have either of these directories, you will have to manually run the script on every boot. (or find a different way to automatically export the 2 environment variables)

Step 2 - Reboot! (unless you manually ran the script)

Step 3 - Run nano by first becoming root in the shell. Then type "nano". Good luck!


YOU MUST BECOME ROOT FIRST BEFORE RUNNING NANO

Interesting.... Never really had the need for nano on android but I'll be looking at this/installing. :good:
Thanks brother! I usually use it thru adb shell if needing to edit a quick file or something. Without having to pull/push the files back and fourth.

EDIT - It looks like you are a recognized developer here on XDA. Maybe you could help me out with this. I cant figure out how to run nano without being "su" first. Do you have any ideas?
