And to provide a third alternative... ;-) Which might be necessary, if joe or emacs aren't already installed, and if you can't manage to install either of them. vi is probably installed by default. You'd start it with the vi command and the filepath/filename. e.g. vi /etc/X11/xorg.conf Hit the insert key to start inserting text wherever the cursor is (it starts up in a reading mode). Type what you want to do to the file. Hit escape to get out of the editing mode. Then colon w q <enter> to write (w) your changes, and (q) quit the program. e.g. :wq -- [tim@bigblack ~]$ uname -ipr 2.6.22.4-65.fc7 i686 i386 Using FC 4, 5, 6 & 7, plus CentOS 5. Today, it's FC7.
