Well I did the same but came back to the rpm way.
The problem is that everything is in a different place, has a different
name, there is way to much to learn before doing the simplest thing.
I also found that the debian community had a different mind set...
And the clincher is that hardware

wine is not so stable and requires a lot of fiddling to get it to work,

There are lots of text editors on linux but the two main ones are vim and
emacs.
both have a bit of a learning curve both do all that you ask, and as to
