Title: another editor than Vi
Post by: abeeber on April 04, 2008, 03:13:14 am

Hi

I have a quick question.

From the console on the box hosting ebox. Is there another editor available other than vi? Not being familar with vi and having to edit the fstab file was a bit of a challenge. So I am hoping there is another alternative.

Thanks in advance...

Nano always works well.

cool. thank you. I will look into that.

quick question. Is it installed by default?

If not, and forgive the simple question, do I do an apt get in order to download it?

Thanks

If it is not installed just type in terminal:
sudo apt-get install nano
and type your password
