The choice should boil down to chooseing one, getting intimately familiar with it, without it ever scrambling your prose, will be a good choice. How gedit ever made it into LinuxCNC as the default editor is immaterial, but when it was found to be a file scrambler it should not have taken several years to remove it. If it had been nano or pico, which in my experience has Just Worked, we would never have had this discussion as nano is supplied on every install cd I have ever burned. Mousepad? Never heard of it. It works I guess, but I'm now used to geany, and any safe editor (gedit is not "safe") can change that default in your .ini file. > The choice of which screen 'Axis, Touchy etc' is also difficult if you > have very little experience with CNC controls.
