reasons to use wget includes: wget is more ubiquitously available than curl. (my particular problem: curl isn't shipped in Debian by default) wget's ability to recover from a prematurely broken transfer and continue downloading has no counterpart in curl. reasons for using curl: ... in theory, curl could be faster by enabling --compressed , which would make the github servers gzip-compress the transfer (curl: "Accept-Encoding: deflate, gzip" github: "Content-Encoding: gzip", which as of speaking would save 158 bytes, extra header not accounted for) but since we're not using --compressed anyway, and that the script is really small (355 bytes), it's a moot point. i think we should use wget.

Improved Nano Syntax Highlighting Files
***************************************
This repository holds ``{lang}.nanorc`` files that have improved
definitions of syntax highlighting for various languages.
These should be placed inside of the ``~/.nano/`` directory.
Alternatively::
git clone git@github.com:scopatz/nanorc.git ~/.nano
*Note - if you have any issues, alternatively use::
git clone https://github.com/scopatz/nanorc.git ~/.nano
Once there you should add the languages you want to your
nano configuration file ``~/.nanorc``. For example::
## C/C++
include "~/.nano/c.nanorc"
You can also append the contents of ``~/.nano/nanorc`` into your
``~/.nanorc`` to include all languages::
cat ~/.nano/nanorc >> ~/.nanorc
Finally, you can run an automatic installer using the following code::
$ wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/scopatz/nanorc/master/install.sh -O- | sh
