| 00:36.01 | dpkg | editor is probably Something used to edit (change, create, modify, append, remove stuff from) files. There are both text editors and binary editors. vi and emacs (or flavors of same) are the standard *nix editors, though n00b5 might find nano, gedit, nedit, etc., more useful. The usual difference between, say, an editor and a word processor is that editors _just_ do plain text. See also binary editor. |
