-======Text Editing======
-It is possible that you might need to tweak your programs or to view output files.  There are many options to edit text on a Linux system. Some are text-only (console mode) and some use a graphical user interface.
-=====Nano=====
-[[http://www.nano-editor.org/|Nano]] is a very simple console text editor.  To use it to edit a file, type:
-<code>$ nano [file name]</code>
-Note that nano may automatically wrap long lines (unless started with ''-w'') and it does not have an undo function.
-======Vim=====
-You can run [[http://www.vim.org/|Vim]] with:
-<code>$ vim</code>
-Upon starting Vim, you will be in 'command mode'.  In command mode, you cannot actually edit a file.  To edit the file type ''i'' to enter 'insert mode' and type ''Esc'' to return to 'command mode'.  A tutorial is available for Vim, by typing '':help'' and pressing enter (in command mode). To quit, type '':quit''+Enter (in command mode).
