There isn't anything wrong with a good xterm. By the way, you are
forgetting the other noteworthy 'j' CLI editors: jed and joe. You can't
do much better for less than a meg on either score.

I used and loved nedit for a long time, but eventually decided that we
would have to part. Nedit (or possibly lesstif) was glitching far more
than I considered proper. Right now I'm using Scite.
