It's been ages since I used pico (I mainly use joe now) but I seem to recall that ^O will export/save the current work without closing.

Hope that helps.

Yup, ^O (write out) is equivalent to save in GUI text editors... Consult the dummy bar at the bottom of the pico screen for command reference

[grungergirl02]

the dummy bar at the bottom said write out, but i was looking for save (DOH)

haha

emacs can also run in text only mode, with most of the same functionality as the XWindows version. Also, decent FTP clients will allow you to edit text files on the server right within the client.

in my FTP i can edit it, but it doesn't do stuff like indent for me, or alert me when i forget a semi-colon.

I use watcom, but parts of my watcom don't work and I'm trying to avoid redownloading it.

Check out TextPad... kickass Windows text editor for programming and stuff

lol

the only thing i understood from all that is notepad=suck

code stuff

[tolldog]

I assume if you use notepad you know about dos2unix so you can strip those nasty ^M end of line crap that dos uses

use vim. can be used in graphic mode or in console mode. enuff said. you can use it in linux, win32, osx, dos, etc.
