There is a text editor.  THE text editor, by some reckoning :-D (it

interactive.  You're going to have to read about it a bit, this is the
opposite of intuitive.  However, it is the simplest text editor of all
time.  You need to learn a few simple commands to get started.  The
first and most important is q for quit.

ed is, as they say, the standard editor.
