That's interesting. I haven't ever had that problem. I have had a ton of problems with zsh adding characters to things like SSL certs (I forgot, maybe an ending %?) where I had to switch back to bash to base64 encode/decode it properly.

I write the standards for our engineers to follow/emulate/consider. I don't have very much for nano but this is what I put into every containers userdata scripts. I can't get this curl command to show up correctly.

  # Add syntax highlighting and line numbers to nanorc, need to fork syntax repo so we're not installing random git repos

  echo set constantshow
  echo set linenumbers
