NAME
       rnano  -  Restricted  mode  for Nano's ANOther editor, an enhanced free
       Pico clone


SYNOPSIS
       rnano [OPTIONS] [[+LINE,COLUMN] FILE]...


DESCRIPTION
       This manual page briefly documents the rnano command.

       nano is a small, free and friendly editor which aims to  replace  Pico,
       the  default  editor included in the non-free Pine package. Rather than
       just copying Pico's look and feel, nano also  implements  some  missing
       (or disabled by default) features in Pico, such as "search and replace"
       and "go to line and column number".

       rnano is a restricted version of nano, which only edits specific  files
       and doesn't allow the user access to the filesystem or a command shell.

       In restricted mode, nano will not:

       o read or write to any file not specified on the command line;

       o read any nanorc files;

       o allow suspending;

       o allow a file to be appended to, prepended to, or saved under  a  dif-
         ferent name;

       o use backup files or spell checking.


OPTIONS
       +LINE,COLUMN
              Places  cursor  at line number LINE and column number COLUMN (at
              least one of which must be specified) on startup, instead of the
              default of line 1, column 1.

       -?     Same as -h (--help).

       -h (--help)
              Show a summary of command line options and exit.

       -V (--version)
              Show the current version number and exit.

       See the nano(1) manpage for the complete documentation of nano.
