Winget? #29

Open sebtech33 opened 1 year ago

sebtech33 commented 1 year ago

Would it be possible to add this to winget for easy installation natively? There is one in winget (GNU.nano) but this is using a old build and does not work.

I know i can install it with scoop, but for me I would only install scoop to install this which i would prefer not to do.

Well, this is a port, right? If it's not under the official listing then it would likely have to be added to winget separately, likely under okibcn.Nano instead of the current official (albeit archaic and broken) GNU.Nano

Is there any opposition to getting Nano for Windows submitted to winget as okibcn.Nano? If not, I would volunteer to go ahead and file a PR with the winget-pkgs repo. Not having any modern nano version in winget has been driving me slightly insane for years

I think that's a great idea. I'd say go for it.

But note that if you're willing to pollute your path with all that git offers, you can install a recent nano with WinGet:

winget install --id Git.Git
set "path=%path%;C:\Program Files\Git\usr\bin"
nano --version
 GNU nano, version 8.0
 (C) 2024 the Free Software Foundation and various contributors
 Compiled options: --enable-utf8

But that nano doesn't have all the features of this build.
