Right, GEdit is a GUI editor. Full Gnome install isn't requited, just a few Gnome components, so it'll work under KDE or XFCE, but you do need a to be running X. You can launch gedit form the command line by running 'gedit'. You can also pass it a filename on the command line to have it open that file directly.

Komodo is an IDE from ActiveState. A few years back, they rebuilt their IDE on top of the Gecko rendering engine (used by Mozilla Firefox). Their open-source product is Komodo Edit (http://komodoide.com/komodo-edit/). Komodo is their commercial product; it has a few more bells and whistles. I've used both off and on for years until I switched to Sublime about a year ago.

Sublime Text is the other text editor I mentioned (http://www.sublimetext.com/). Both Sublime and Komodo are text editors, not word processors. So they may or may not meet your needs.

Thanks Karl: So can we assume that wp8 is or would only work in a graphical session?
Also, I installed gedit, but since I am not running gnome, it may never be of use? You mentioned "komodo" certainly cannot find in Debian.
Thanks alot for researching
