Most Windows-like text editor that can be used through PuTTY in NetBSD?
Nano is my editor of choice, as soon as I learned some of the keys (Ctrl+x for close, ctrl+w for find, etc.).
If you have enough bandwidth, X11 forwarding with your editor of choice is a good option. I do this a bit from the windows machine at my work with Xming and PuTTY. Great programs, IMO.
Good luck!
dit. From a review:
I can’t contain my glee. Here are the totally groundbreaking features, never before seen all together in one editor.
- The ability to page up and down. Revolutionary!
- Control-left and control-right to hop words. Amazing!
- Control-s to save, control-q to quit. Incredible!
- Control-c to copy, control-x to cut, control-v to paste. Astounding!
There’s no sarcasm there at all either. A usable text editor.
(The author goes on in that post to say "In other news, I decided to implement a DOS editor wrapper using DOSBox.", which shows you where he's coming from, and is sort of awesome.)
I tend to use joe, though, because I've found it often pre-installed on otherwise-unfamiliar systems, and you can get it on Cygwin. It's not like edit.com, but its little help panel (^KH) makes up for almost all unfamiliarity.
