Hi All,
I am looking for a simple text editor that i can use when i connect to the freebsd box with an ssh client (no x window) that supports vt100 or vt400 (called putty.exe) . Should also be able to connect to a linux box by recompiling source for the linux computer.
There are so many editors listed in the packages cd , can anyone recommend one in particular
Prefered is one that is menu driven with no keystrokes to remember other than the common keys on the pc keyboard : delete , arrows , backspace etc.
Pico is relatively simple. Pico is typically the editor for the pine email client. I used when I first started out in Linux. By the time I moved over to FreeBSD, vi or vim was my editor of choice and mutt was my email client. You probably won't want to use vi or vim because it is not necessarily intuitive. It is extremely efficient and great to work with after you get used to it though. It was one of the best things I learned to use. Hope that helps.
Bryan
