ed was my preferred on CP/M in the day when I didn't have access to wordstar.
ed or edline on DOS was OK.
On Windows I prefer notepad++ (notepad-plus-plus.org), a free editor
that is really simple to use and does proper g-code highlighting.
On Unix/Linux I go to vi, yes there is a vi-vs-emacs cult
after using EDT stepping down to dos edlin was a real shock.

It is amazing how well muscle memory does after awhile. :-)

Mark,
edlin is a part of the DOS subsystem even in Win7, just as edit still
exists there. It needs to be called followed by a file name since there
is no "load" command in edlin.

This is very strange to hear as I have used Gedit for a long time and
never had a file trashed. Maybe if it is called from another program it
could be problematic but as an editor I had no issues.

I'm agree with you that Geany is much better than Gedit .
I will try to find out the way to do what you suggested .
The Gcode highlight is quite useful during the editing especially in case
of structured Gcode .

Hi Wallace .
I got the same problem when I made a new installation using the Debian
Wheezy package.
As John told you , you should specify the editor program you want to use
into the INI file.
Keep in mind that Debian comes with an editor called Mousepad .
So if you want Gedit working you should dow
You have to specify the editor in your ini file. If your on Debian you
have to add Gedit.
