Micro is MIT licensed, so it should be shippable in NetBSD base.

https://github.com/micro-editor/MICRO

But written in Go, and I would expect the NetBSD base only includes software buildable using tools already in the base system.

  • 11 MB is also a lot bigger than 48k

    I do think Micro is a nice editor, but we need a tiny, BSD licensed pico/nano for true beginners

    • I didn't realize the size difference was so huge.

      Atto has a great man page that would give a user everything they needed to know if they were unfamiliar with emacs keybindings.
