New comment by ofiala-a51 on void-packages repository

Comment:
I personally think using arguments like "`nano` is easier to use and way simpler **for someone who isn't used to command line stuff**" (additional highlighting done by me) for additions to base-system is not a direction that Void should take. There are already many other Linux distributions that are optimized for people who aren't used to command line stuff. Compared with many of the things new Void users have to deal with in order to get a fully functional system, `:wq` seems completely minor to me, and definitely doesn't justify this addition. Users who are not comfortable with vi can install nano the second their system is able to connect to the repos.
