Hi Roberth, This is what the error means: The program executer can't find the library "libncursesw.so.6", which the binary "nano" needs to be available. If I understand this right, that means the shared library for ncursesw built for FreeBSD 6. I would start looking in the ports tree for "ncurses", "ncursesw" and the like. If there's a port named "ncursesw" or "libncursesw", I would guess that's your missing library right there. HtH, Adam J Richardson
