A collection of improved .nanorc syntax highlighting definition files for the GNU nano text editor, covering many programming languages. It ships with an installer script and can be installed via package managers or manually cloned.
Use cases
- add syntax highlighting to nano for more languages
- improve nano color schemes
- configure nano syntax highlighting for python and c
- make nano look better in the terminal
- install nano syntax definitions system-wide
When to choose
- you use nano as your primary terminal editor and want richer highlighting
- you want a simple drop-in set of .nanorc files with an installer
When to avoid
- you use a different editor like vim or emacs
- you need an IDE-grade highlighting engine rather than regex-based nano definitions
