@cn True. I usually don't do that but I'm not sure why. Probably because I have was having issues with things "sticking" a while ago so I wanted to rule out syntax issues. Thanks for reminding me!

@jack @cn that may work, but technically you should list an IP exactly once, and all aliases should follow on the same line. Keep localhost as first entry for 127.0.0.1.

Nano, on the other hand, tells you right there at the bottom of the screen.

@eli Oh my! I went to look at the source and it says "(Sorry about that, but we can’t show files that are this big right now.)". That's a sign! :)
