emacs

The emacs text editor, and advanced and sophisticated text editor. Emacs may seem rich or bloated, depending on your point of view. There are likely 3 versions of emacs installed on your system: (1) text-only: type emacs in a text (not X-windows) terminal; (2) graphical-mode: type emacs in an X-windows terminal (fairly usable even for a newbie if you take some time to learn it); and (3) X-windows mode: type xemacs in an X-windows terminal. Emacs comes with a built-in tutorial. Exit emacs with Ctrl-C.
Current version: 24.2
