This concludes our walk-through of the text editors. In the following chapters, we’ll make use of them, adding plugins or packages for specialized tasks to help us with the system administration of our Linux systems.

Summary

In this chapter, we learned in depth about text editors, beginning with the fundamental understanding that in Unix/Linux, everything is a file. Thus, the use of the terminal as a tool to edit files eases the tasks of system configuration.

We took our first steps in Emacs. While it is known to be a very complex editor for novices, we offered a basic guide to get started with it.

We also reviewed the use of Nano, the default text editor in several distributions, including Fedora Linux.

We also deep-dived into the use of Vim, a well-known and recommended file editing tool for file management.

The decision is up to you, dear reader, to choose an editor of your preference.

In the next chapter, we will review the LibreOffice suite and its different programs for creating and editing commonly used file formats.
