So far nano seems my favorite terminal editor, but I noticed I have pretty old GNU nano 2.2.6 While latest is GNU nano 2.8.6.

I tried: sudo apt-get install nano but it said I already using newest version, while it's obviously not true.

Could anyone help me updating it to latest, or atleastat least newer than what is current? I've read that new versions have some nice feature, that I would love to use.
