      Can you use a mouse in nano? I always just use the arrow keys, or page up/down and home/end

      I mostly use vim but I barely use the jkl; to navigate the document.

        Ah sorry, I meant using Vim in a GUI program. I wanted something with the flexibility of a mouse (quick navigation, context menu actions, etc.) without using a mouse. Using just the arrow keys, shift highlighting, etc. is just too slow when writing lots of text, and it doesn’t follow the natural position of typing.
