These threads have some data about why it might not be feasible:

TL;DR:
LibreOffice as a GUI word processor
Nano, Vim, Emacs for CLI-based systems
I like Sublime Text 2 for code editing. Previously used both GEdit and Komodo with great success.

Well, in considering other editors which deal with more sets of charactors, I look back in my DOS days to WP6.0. I had heard there was a wp8 in Linux, but I cannot find it? Some1 in our LUG was going to get me a copy, but somehow it didn't happen.
So far among editors I am familliar with, I am most comfortable in Nano, but it won't handle replacing items which say "null"
Thanks so much in advance for suggestions of finding a WP in Linux, or another editor which is simple, not like vim, vi, or emacs.  Come to think of it, could I run WP6 in dosemu?
