If you take suggestions for editors you might as well look into (g)vim,
or cream if you find the learning curve too steep.
Kind regards,

Andrei, thank you for the suggestions.
I don't know anything about cream, but I'll look it up.
As for *vi* . . . I have tried to use that, but I just can't seem to "get" modal editing. To me it is just too difficult and non-intuitive. Which is a shame, because otherwise it seems to have a lot of good points.
