Re: [newbie] pretty graphical editor
Jed has always been my favourite. It comes from the same family as Emacs, but it is small and light. Text colouring is turned on by default.

Ok, I found two ways to do it. CoolEdit looks somewhat broken in Mandrake 7.2 -- when you call up help it gives some error messages and, at first, I couldn't scroll down. Turns out that clicking below the elevator bar will not move it -- you can drag it or you can use PgDown/PgUp. Next question: Is there a way to select a portion of text with the mouse and then delete the higlighted selection? (I'll go back and look in help, now that I can make scroll it.) Thanks, Randy Kramer

The white text on a black background will kill me -- I can't (quickly) find a way to change it to black text on a white background. Is there a way? Didn't look for soft wrap or some other things and probably won't pending a way to change the color scheme. Thanks, Randy Kramer

Yup. Edit your .vimrc and add
syntax on

Is there a command to turn on the syntax highlighting in vim?
Thanks.

Re: [newbie] pretty graphical editor
I tried Kwrite, and it's not bad. I switched to nedit because it has: -soft wrap (they call it continuous) -macros However, the search and replace in kwrite is nicer than that in nedit if you want to accept changes one at a time -- nedit doesn't highlight the "found" selection. Also, kwrite looks a little slicker -- nedit uses what I think they call the "Motif" style. (Actually, I switch between nedit and kwrite (and jstar) depending on exactly what I'm doing.)

Have you taken a look at VIM? Its GUI version of VI.

Re: [newbie] pretty graphical editor
Try Kwrite (listed as Advanced Editor in the menu, under Applications>Editors)...you might have to enable code highlighting, but it does the job for me...

[newbie] pretty graphical editor
I know I asked this question once and got some reponses but if it ok I would like to just check once more but being a little clearer. Perhaps I am contaminated coming from the windows world but I like it when I am programming in a graphical editor and the editor colorizes on my code depending on whether it a comment or a function... I have JBuilder and it works great for java code. Are their any really good editors like this for C? I tried emacs, and well... we just didn get along. Thanks, -- Kevin
