'''Frequently Asked Questions''' I've added questions I get from folks but feel free to add your questions (and answers!) * Is there a text editor that looks like [[EDIT]] on DOS but works on Linux or Mac/OS? I recommend trying SetEdit. It is the closest I've found. -- RonPerrella : Another option would be [[RHIDE]], originally written for DJGPP, but subsequently ported to Linux. It and SetEdit are both console mode IDEs with features beyond a pure editor. They have a Borland Turbo-vision style interface and the WordStar command set, and are broadly similar in appearance and operation. [[RHIDE]] is part of the FreeDOS distribution. * Is there a text editor that looks like [[Notepad]] on Windows but works on Linux or Mac/OS? Notepad is pretty simple to emulate. A large number of Linux programs can easily accomodate. I recommend trying [[GEdit]] if you are running something like Ubuntu. Another option (oldie but goodie) is [[NEdit]]. : Another alternative is [[Leafpad]] or [[Mousepad]]. Both are simple <nowiki>GtK</nowiki> based editors. Mousepad is based on Leafpad, and is the standard editor for the XFCE desktop environment. : --DMcCunney * I've got a great idea! Where can I post it on this wiki? Please, not here! -- as I did yesterday, knowing no better -- but on [[ThingsIdLikeToSee]] --YahyaAA * Trying to set my [[Preferences]], I'm repeatedly stumped by the following response: ::''Invalid UserID 111, preferences not saved.'' ::''(Preferences require cookies, but no cookie was sent.)'' :Because, you see, I'm not blocking this site from setting cookies, nor does it appear to try to (using Firefox to force approval of each cookie request). And of course, I'm not entering the UserID '''111'''. Can anyone help me, please? : --YahyaAA
