In Mac OSX there is a text editor called BBEdit http://www.barebones.com/ that is absolutely phenominal for text editing and coding.
In Windows there is TextPad http://www.textpad.com/.
The built-in text editor that comes with Fedora does not come close to either of these. What else can I YUM for that will?
I see you want to start a religious war! ;)
Depends on what you want. Fedora has tons of editors to choose from. From Emacs to vi to everything in between. Assuming you have a directory containing all the RPMs from your installation CD's, this query will tell you which packages are in the group Applications/Editors:
rpm -qp --queryformat='%{Group} %{name}\n' * | grep EditorsI mounted my ISO images using the loop device, then symlinked all the RPMS directories to one directory, and used yum-arch to create yum headers. I put this directory in my /etc/yum.conf, and also have the packages available for queries like this.
In /etc/fstab:
/opt/Fedora/FC2/FC2-i386-isos/FC2-i386-disc1.iso /mnt/FC2/1 iso9660 rw,loop /opt/Fedora/FC2/FC2-i386-isos/FC2-i386-disc2.iso /mnt/FC2/2 iso9660 rw,loop /opt/Fedora/FC2/FC2-i386-isos/FC2-i386-disc3.iso /mnt/FC2/3 iso9660 rw,loop /opt/Fedora/FC2/FC2-i386-isos/FC2-i386-disc4.iso /mnt/FC2/4 iso9660 rw,loop
I then created /opt/Fedora/FC2/RPMS containing symlinks to all the RPMs:
mkdir -p /opt/Fedora/FC2/RPMS for i in 1 2 3 4 ; do ln -s /mnt/FC2/$i/RPMS/* /opt/Fedora/FC2/RPMS ; done yum-arch -l /opt/Fedora/FC2/RPMS
