Writing a good text editor is something to be proud of, so that’s awesome!
Well, proud of my accomplishment as I am, …
I never said it’s good.
It’s merely usable.
And even that may yet prove debatable. ;)
I don’t use any version of Commander on this machine, and I don’t plan to. I used the original from Norton back in the day, but when Windows 3 hit, I used Norton Desktop to improve it (basically into what Win95 became), and never looked at a Commander interface again - if I want two side-by-side directories, I have a windowing system.
First time I recall anyone responding to my suggestion of mcedit in a way that looks like they know what I’m talking about. :)
gedit seems to be doing the job. I’ve never heard of kate before this thread, I’ll have to look it up.
Kate is to KDE, like gedit is to GNOME. It’s been a while since I used gedit, but Kate recently [(well, a couple years ago]) inspired me to add one of it’s nice features (the minimap) to my emacs.
Never looked at nano, but I heard of it.
M$ Edit
Just remembered, there’s now also M$'s edit (iirc that’s the name “edit”) available for windows, that’s basically notepad for the terminal user interface.
My “fin”'s similar (and simpler ~ because I’ve yet to get back to padding out its [even basic] features), in that it also uses cua keybind model (ctrl+s = save, etc).
