Simple editing with JED
code editor jedA while ago when I was giving Slackware Linux the first tries I came across this tiny, very functional and very powerful text editor, JED.
JED is a minimalistic text editor for the shell that emulates Emacs in most of its useful functionality, is not as powerful as Emacs itself but it has just enough for me.

- Syntax highlighting
- Key bindings
- Buffers for edition
- Contextual shell menus
- Very lightweight
- And some other features
It might not be an IDE, but it's my favorite tool for editing text via SSH, or when I'm doing something small and I just want to do it as fast as I can.
Give it a try, hopefully you will find it useful.
