Hi,
For example when I use gedit text editor (or write this message) I can highlight text with arrow + left/right keys. Is there any way do this with urxvt terminal or nano text editor?
I read about support for nano but this support is for Xfce's Terminal.
* Sat Apr 07 2007 cthiel@suse.de
- update to version 2.0.4
* GNU nano 2.0.4 heralds the dawn. This release contains proper support
for the Ctrl-[arrow key], Shift-[arrow key], and F13-F16 keys under
Xfce's Terminal. It also adds still more minor documentation updates.
Enjoy.

Esc+A or F15 will toggle select on/off. There's nothing to see with empty lines.
Delete etc. doesn't work as you may expect on selected text. You can also copy and cut on a line by line basis without selecting.
Ctrl+G will get you the help page in nano, or man nano outside of it.

A little bit complicate to use this kind of key sets. Is there any other editor which I can use from command line and more easy to use? Any editors with search function (CLI)?

nano has a search function.
Other editors, see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_te … _interface
I've only used nano and vim, myself (terminal based editors, that is) though I've heard good things about Joe.
