Linux text editors

 Today I had a discussion with a colleague about text editors in Linux and which one is the best editor. I realized people don't know lots of text editors (I guess I also don't know about all of them). But here are a few (the ones installed on the machine I was working on):

1. VI

2. NANO

3. MCEDIT

Personally I prefer mcedit . It's part of the Midnight Commander package. It's very intuitive and you see on the bottom bar all the shortcuts in case you forgot one of them.
