As far as text editors go:

The most popular text editor mentioned in the replies I received was NEDIT.
A search on AltaVista will help to track it down.

Xemacs was the second most popular.

Also mentioned by Andrew Moar <ccam_at_lux.latrobe.edu.au> were:

a) pico - not very powerfull but very easy to use. It comes with the pine
distribution.

b) Joe (Joe's Own Editor) - It can emulate wordstar, emacs and pico

c) jed - If you've ever used EDT on VMS you'd like this. Also comes as
an X-Windows based program - but it crashes a bit!

Also there is the old standard, xedit(1X). It works...


By far the most popular X-Window HTML editor was asWedit.

I downloaded a copy from the following URL:

ftp://sunsite.doc.ic.ac.uk/packages/www/asWedit/

Carlos A M dos Santos added:

There are *lots* of web servers, navigators and authoring tools
available. Look at

Thanks to everyone who replied.
