{{#set:feature description = The [[mw:Extension:WikiEditor|WikiEditor]] extension is an extendable framework with a set of feature-based modules that improve the user experience of editing. It is also the editing interface that Wikipedia currently uses }} {{#set:feature notes = Available as the default editor in this wiki }} {{#set:feature tests = }} {{#set:feature examples = }} Most administration on a Unix-like system is done with a text editor editing configuration files, usually under the <code>/etc</code> directory. This document will just outline a few editors to choose from. == vi == [http://www.vim.org/ vi] (home is http://vim.org) can reliably be expected to be installed on just about any machine or rescue console. More at [[Vi]] == emacs == * http://www.gnu.org/software/emacs/ * http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Emacs == joe == <code>joe</code> is Joe's Own Editor. This editor uses a minimal amount of your screen, similar to <code>vi</code>, but is a more user-friendly editor that allows a user to position the cursor with the arrow keys and type. <code>Ctrl-K-H</code> can be pressed at any time to get a listing of additional commands available. == nano == <code>nano</code> is the free software implementation of <code>pico</code> which is a popular editor for new users. Usage should be pretty clear as the common commands are all printed out on the screen for you. == TextPad == [http://www.textpad.com/ TextPad] is a '''free''', powerful, general purpose editor for plain text files that works in Windows. == Wiki Editors == [[File:Accessories-text-editor.svg|thumb|right|The pen is mightier than the sword]] * [[wp:User:Cacycle/wikEd | wikEd]] is a great [[JavaScript]] implementation of an editor for MediaWiki wikis. * [[mw:Extension:WikiEditor | WikiEditor]] is the extension in use by MediaWiki Foundation currently on all sites. * [[Visual editor]] is the ultimate in edit experience for 'simplicity' and lowering the bar for new contributors to the wiki since editing is so close to using a word processor.
