I have followed the suggestion in this answer How do you update the default version of Nano on MacOS X without using the homebrew package manager?
I have macOS X Hight Sierra. After the installation I have tried:
$ nano -V
And the output is:
GNU nano version 2.0.6 (compiled 19:06:01, Oct 6 2017)
Email: [email protected] Web: http://www.nano-editor.org/
Compiled options: --disable-nls --enable-color --enable-extra --enable-multibuffer --enable-nanorc --enable-utf8
So I have tried to see where nano is located:
$ which nano
and the output is
/usr/local/bin/nano
So checking the path
$ echo $PATH
/usr/local/bin:/usr/local/sbin:/usr/bin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/sbin
And I don't understand why, if the first path is where nano is installed, the new version is not available.
