Description

Text files can be edited with a vi-style editor that also has optional X support for users who prefer classic modal editing.

This editor is useful for programming, configuration files, and terminal-based writing. Like any text editor, it can overwrite important files, so use care when editing system configuration or files with elevated privileges.
