View 11 RepliesI'm looking for a text editor, word processor, or another kind of program that makes it really easy to make it look like some of the text is inside of a terminal. So that it is very obvious what text is a command and what text is a description. Also a template that does this would work to.
View 5 Replies View RelatedYou know how nano, vi, vim, etc... all use the entire screen when they are started? I am wondering if it is possible to get a text editor (or modifying an existing one) that doesn't take the entire terminal. The reason for this is that I to look at the output of a different command, then modify a different file while looking at the output. I want to be able to do this very fast, and it would be great if there was some way I could this all in one shell instead of creating two terminals and resizing or flipping between them. I realize the ideal solution would be a second monitor, but I can't get that right now.
View 6 Replies View Relatedi was wondering if in all the editors/tools in linux, if there was a prog that can extract a portion of a text file, giving it a starting line of say o as the first character on a line of say o35565 oxxxxx then when it finds the next line down the file with the same thing oxxxxwhatever
it could take those lines and all the lines between them and save it to another file? i dont know if you call this parsing? or what.
Options:A double linked list with fixed size character arrays. New nodes will be added when previous ones get filled. Dynamic arrays using realloc(). Linked list has the disadvantage of not having an O(1) search like an array but I think using realloc() will be more dangerous since it moves the whole block to a new location and if the new location is not big enough to hold the whole block, realloc fails !! this case will not occur with the linked list since its nodes are scattered.
View 14 Replies View RelatedOn windows I really only used Notepad++ as my text editor, it had two features that I loved.What I need to accomplish is what I would do with Notepad++ column editor.I could have like 100 lines, and place the cursor at a column, and goto edit>column editor, and I could insert an incrementing number. (I could also pad the incrementing number with 0s, this was GREAT for making batch files among other things.)So each line at that column had a number higher than the previous line.The other feature that I used sometimes was a search/replace with regex patterns.Does anyone know of an editor that has those features for linux? I am mostly after the column editor insert feature but if you know of one with both features that would rock.

View 4 Replies View RelatedI was trying to install GTK+-2.8.20, so I installed it's necessary dependencies in this order:
pkg-config-0.23
glib-2.20.4
pango-1.24.4
jpeg library
tiff library
cairo
And I was about to install the last dependency: ATK (Accessability Toolkit).I opened the Archive Manager to extract the "atk-1.26.0.tar.gz" file (yes, I'm still switching from Windows so I'm fond of GUI), but I noticed all the text in that window was boxes, like the □ type box for every letter of text.So instead I thought it wouldn't be a big deal, because the terminal and regular windows weren't screwed up.I opened a text file in gedit (reference to commands in terminal, such as how to extract files via terminal), but yet again all of the text was □-like boxes.
for example
else {
for fileDOC in $location/*.doc

I'm trying to add text to a file for a specific group of users, I'll need to do examples as I can't think of an easy way of explaining, my file is like this:
Code:
users{
user1
user2
[code]....
At the present my code lists all the available groups, how would I add a user to a specified group? (e.g add "members user3") to the end of group 1 for example. So the code ends up like this
Code:
members user2,user3

I was experimenting with distros the other day, and came came across Slitaz. Anyway, I noticed it had a really nice and lightweight text editor called Beaver. It had basic functions like syntax highlighting, and seemed to run on the lightest bit of ram.I wanted to install it for Debian. Anyway, I can't seem to find a .deb package for this application, nor apt-get install it. How would I go about getting this editor?
