If using bash as your SHELL, enter: $ command -V nano # lists what will execute $ type -a nano # lists aliases, functions, exes in PATH and it should tell you if there are any aliases or functions fronting your nano; also you can run the nano exe using: $ command nano # runs exes in PATH and $ /usr/local/bin/nano # runs exe at path and see what version you get in each case. -- Take care.
