jleaman Posted February 1, 2004 Report Share Posted February 1, 2004 Ok i searched seriously.... How can i open files or edit them with terminal. im trying my hardest to learn and do every thing with ssh terminaling into my server but i cant find the text or file editor program for mandrake 9.2 terminal. in bsd or other unix it is edit or picco but what is it with mandrake.. I hate walking up to the server loging on as root and opening files up with text editors and stuff.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
