   I would imagine because nano is using your locale, which in most cases is   
   UTF-8 these days. If you have a locale installed where you are able to view   
   high ascii in your terminal, then you could set your locale to that while   
   running nano, and then set it back when it's done. Above and beyond that, I   
   don't believe nano supports ansi codes, so you won't be able to view ansi   
   regardless.

   You're just full of all sorts of correct assumptions these days, aren't you? ;)
