Editing with nano

Use nano to create a file /root/edit1. Cut and paste the following text into edit1 and save the file. Remember you cannot easily cut and paste to a vnc terminal, so use telnet or ssh. Do not insert additional lines (even blank lines) or extra space characters.

This is an exercise!
Up, down,
left, right,
build your terminal's
muscles bit by bit

In all the editor questions you must WRITE the file in order to pass the question.

Delete the word "an" from line 3, plus one of the spaces. The line left should read "This is exercise!".

Add " and byte by byte" to the end of the line "muscles bit by bit".

Append to the end of the file a new line which reads:

123456789 123456789

Using mark (^^ i.e. CTRL and ^) mark the whole of the first line of the file and then cut (^K) that line out. Move that line and paste it back in (^U) so that the line is now line 2 in the file. Edit afterwards to make sure there is not a blank line left at the start.
