How can I enable Undo in nano? I am using a ssh connection with a server. I can not update the version of nano that is installed on the server. Is there anyway to use GNU nano 2.3.1 to have Undo function?

2I managed to find out the solution. I hope this helps. Use this command: nano -u Then use Alt+U for undo and Alt+E for redo. – saeed mohammadi Mar 16 '18 at 22:28
