Zext is written in a very small amount of Ocaml code. Zext has line numbers. Zext does not have a learning curve. Zext opens your file with zext file.txt, takes in the little buttons you press, and when you press Ctrl-s it makes the file different. When Zext sees esc or Ctrl-c it leaves you alone. Want to go up? Press the up arrow. Want to go down? Press the down arrow. Guess what the left and right arrows do?
Zext makes Nano look difficult.
