Re: Choosing directory to save file to, inside nano

The file browser would indeed be ideal, but it seems I'm too stupid to
utilize it. Could you walk me through it? Text has been inputted into nano
and nano has been opened. ^O opens save menu and ^T the file browser, I
navigate to the directory I want and then what?

Unfortunately no. The saving folder is not set. It changes from text to
text.
