Re: OT: [users@httpd] Re: What editor to edit config files with Windows XP?

Notepad works just fine. When you're done editing, click file>save as , 

then at the

bottom of the window change the text box labelled "Save As Type" from 

'text' to 'all files'.

The file will then be saved using whatever name you supply.

I use one called Jedit (http://www.jedit.org/) it is Java based.  It is totally

really simple and easy to use.

When I edit my hosts, httpd, and other files, I use notepad. When I

editor to correctly save the files as other than .txt?

Take a look at EditPlus.
