Hi, I have a fedora29 workstation and frequently need a lightweight editor to make notes, act as an interim cut buffer, and just briefly edit documents before posting them somewhere else. The problem is that gedit crashes, or my desktop crashes, losing all the notes. Sometimes I have ten or so documents of differing degrees going at once, and when it crashes (like it just did again), I lose everything. I need something with some kind of temporary autosave capability, like vim, but graphical. I'm aware of the dozens of console editors (I use vim virtually everywhere), but need something small like gedit, without the bulk and complexity of libreoffice. Thanks, Alex
Hi Alex, I use leafpad a ton. But as fan as I know, it does not have an autosave capability. Leafpad does have CR+LF save capability for when I have to read something on a Windows comupter. For programming I use geany. It might be overkill though. Geany works well over ssh X11 connection across the Internet. -T _______________________________________________ users mailing list -- users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe send an email to users-leave@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Fedora Code of Conduct: https://getfedora.org/code-of-conduct.html List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
