I've now installed mousepad just to see what it looks like. Better than I expected. Its very quick and it works but in a smallish window that I assume can be pulled out to a usable size. But unless I give it the full filename, it doesn't show me the file I just edited if launched without an argument. The file open dialog rates a zero from me, wants pdf's but can't render them. Launched by lcnc, it will probably open the currently loaded gcode file, and that IS the point, but it fails to see the directory contents one is cd'd into. Thumbs down because of that.
