Mostly things like yank cut-n-paste, and it deals properly with international two-byte character sets, but nvi has those same advantages PLUS has fully implemented ex command set. Nano is fine for quick notes or sending an e-mail but not so good for editing large sets of code. Anyway, he probably is thinking of another chick because "she" looks too much like a "he".
