Description-en: Simple text editor from Alpine, a text-based email client
"pico" is a simple but powerful text editor. It was originally the pine
composer, the editor used by the pine email client for writing email messages.
.
It has gained popularity since its initial use in that context and is now used
as a stand-alone editor by many users.
.
It is similar to but less powerful than GNU Nano, an editor created with the
pico interface when the pico license was non-free.
