[ale] Survey -- preferred Text Editor

[Ron Frazier (ALE)]

Depending on the complexity of what I want to do, and in order of preference,

gedit
gvim
vim - know just enough to be very dangerous, need to study it
nano - for simple things, but I'd rather kick off gedit from a terminal

call on the phone.  I get about 300 emails per day from alternate energy
