If you prefer the capabilities of the gui, I'd recommend against wordpad. You don't want (can't have?) the wrong line termination chars in there.

I have found crimson editor to be quick-loading and easy to use - www.crimsoneditor.com - small memory footprint.

Conversely, I often use nano for very minor .conf editing. It's Ctrl-K and Ctrl-U functions are fairly easy ways to copy blocks of text around a file. And if you open two terminals, with nano in each, you could of course copy-n-paste between windows with your mouse.

Hi,

I have tried editing some Asterisk config files (ie sip.conf) in MS Word Pad and I have saved the files as 'Unicode Text Document' with quotes around the full file name => "sip.conf" and then uploaded the files to a Linux server using FileZilla. When I do this the config files fail to work. Although I am somewhat proficient at using 'vi' I find it easier to cut and paste with Word Pad (I know I can cut and paste with 'vi'... ). Is this possible to do or am I all wet...

Thanks
