    From Sabre@1:154/110 to All on Thu Feb 12 07:26:38 2026

    Hello everybody!

    Does anyone use a external editor with GoldED? If so which one?

    Thanks,
    Sabre

    I sometimes use nano (on Linux). Like for this message. But most of the time I just use the internal editor.

    Bye, Wilfred.

    Golded is, a external editor.

    Why do you think you need another ?

    Back in the day users did use another editor inside of GoldED, so I was just wondering if anyone still did?

    OK, never had such a need to go and look.
    As I run mbse (under Linux) the users if any still exist can use joe in place of the internal one, and no - never used it.

    When I did grab echos from other systems I made use of offline reader tools such as bluewave but not for a very long time :)
