Hi There!
I would suggest there are two choices:
1) gvim
This is a graphical front-end to VIM. When you administer a unix or a
linux system the only editor you can assume will almost always work is
vi. When I first began to use linux/unix I didn't understand vi but now
it is my editor of choice. I find it fast, efficient and suitable to my
own needs.
Vi has a huge amount of features which have been built-in or tacked on
over the years and it's worth the effort learning how to use it.
2) xemacs
Emacs is another long standing editor of choice. Xemacs is a graphical
front-end to emacs. Like gvim you can use the pretty menus and even the
toolbar to perform functions or the usual keyboard commands. Emacs is a
very powerful package which also works on the command line. There's a
continual debate/war between those who like vi and those who like emacs.
Xemacs appears to be a good program (although it doesn't work on my
system for some obscure emacsie type reason; the menus and tool bar
buttons don't function at all but other than that it's fine [read
useless]). Please note that emacs is a very powerful package which is
almot a shell and operating system in its own right,
*I* detest emacs.
