Ctrl+V is not paste in nano, or most other terminal applications.
Nano's own manual is a good read regarding keyboard shortcuts in nano, and most of them are displayed at bottom of screen. Note that ^
generally means Ctrl, so ^v
is Ctrl+v
You can also press ^g
to get help in nano. This will give you a overview of functionality and key combinations that you can use within the editor.
To cut a line in nano, use ^k
, and paste it with ^u
. You can also paste into a terminal using middle click, or your terminal emulators paste function.
^v
is next page in nano, and ^h
is backspace (delete character to the left of the cursor).
This question covers how to paste into a terminal.
