An editor would be what you would use once you're already connected to the server (or once you've synchronized files with your local machine). I'm a command-line junkie, and a full-time Linux user (with the exception of my PDA and half of my laptop). So I SSH into the remote server and use 'vi' to edit the files. From the command line on an SSH connection, some of the editors you'll have available to you in almost all cases are vi/vim, pico/nano, and ed, among others. -- </Daniel P.
