[edit] Other text editors

The sentence "Mac OS X, as a Unix-based operating system, also includes emacs, vi and pico as well as other terminal-based text editors." doesn't seem to flow with the rest of the intro. I'm not sure the best way to fix this, so I'm leaving it as it is for now. -- Matthew0028 21:32, 11 April 2006 (UTC)

I seem to remember a program called Tex-Edit on a 68K mac I saw a month ago, is it the same Program as TextEdit?

It is not the same thing, although I believe it is also available for Mac OS X. Wikifan42 13:15, 1 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Linux Equivalent?

TextEdit is the strongest text editor I know of that is also lightweight, especially since it reads and writes rtf documents. If the source code is really freely published under the GNU, is there a Linux equivalent, and can a link be posted here?--72.75.82.125 02:33, 30 September 2006 (UTC)
