You could use ped …

You could use vim, and learn all the hotkey.

You could use workspace. I am still working on it, but it is a lot
better then ped ( witch is not hard to beat ! ).It does not work thru
phditto or phindows ( I am using a PtOsContainer )

Active Ctags is a work in progress.

It installs :

/usr/photon/bin/ws (the editor binary )
/root/workspace/General.cfg ( Starting Configuration file for Commands
and Helper for root )
/root/workspace/Editor.cfg (Starting Configuration file for Syntax
highlighting for root )
/root/workspace/Fixes.txt (Log file from revision evolution )
/opt/bin/ctags ( ctags 5.1 binary )

If you want updates, have questions, request, suggestions or find bugs,
send me an email.

P.S. it is compile for 6.1 or 6.1A

Hello,

If you’re looking for a GUI editor you can use ‘ped’ that comes with the
ISO or if you want more word processing features you can go with
something like AbiWord found at http://qnx.tucows.com. You can find
other editors there too like ‘vim’.

I hope this helps.

Regards,
Dave B.

I find JED quite good (it’s emacs like, but much smaller). I can compile my
‘C’ programs
from within the editor and it walks me through all the syntax errors one at
a time, placing
my cursor on the line with the error. Memorizing the keystrokes though is a
bit of a pain,
unless you’re already familiar with emacs.
