Atom Warning

Yes, BUT, my software tool gives a warning that Atom is not sandboxed, so has access to your documents. That kept me from trying it out. gedit does not display the warning.

Don't like vi-based editors. Voted for mcedit.
Do you know/remember edit.com from old windows? I looking for something like this for linux console. I want to:
1) have working mouse
2) "normal" select,copy,paste (with mouse and keyboard shift, ctrl+c,ctrl+v)
3) pull down menu, which I don't have to memorise
4) should accept paste, when I connect via ssh, from putty etc. (I use Linux at home, but most PC in my surroundings are windows based.
5) easy find it in various distributions, eventually simple install.

I use nano sometimes, but I checked it now and there are not:
1) select with shift
2) ctrl+c/ctrl+v even when I select with mouse
3) can't delete text, selected with mouse

I can copy with mouse (in Linux console style)
So this is not what I'm looking for. Anyway thanks for advice.
