the nano Mark has is probably pretty old. Put a # in front of line 12
that says set linenumbers for now and you should get past that line.
line numbers do work in the current nano archlinux version.

following in your ~/.nanorc file.
If you want soft-wrapping where long lines display as wrapped but the
lines remain as individually long lines in the saved file, add

Hi, Mark Peveto here,
I tried to use that nanorc file, but nano threw a fit. No real reason why it
should've, because I cut and pasted directly from the email.
Thanks for the shot, though.

Tim here. You should be able to use the `dmesg` utility to dump the
startup messages, piping through `less` or dumping them into a
text-file for your perusal in your favorite text-editor:
$ dmesg | less
or
$ dmesg > startup_messages.txt

It appears powerful and customizable and I'm interested in learning it
despite the steep curve. The manual is also easy to read. For those of
you who use it regularly, what are your favorite features?

Where in debian do I find a record of the boot messages? It seems when I have
my doubletalk connected, it fails to load some sort of module right away,
but doubletalk is talking too fast for me to make it out.
