You might want to look at nedit (my favourite Linux editor program).

If you're editing configuration files or scripts with a Windows editor, then yes, you should indeed run dos2unix on everything before putting it into service. I'd just edit stuff with a native Linux editor and avoid the hassle, myself. If you have the "comfy chair" in front of your Windows computer and the Linux box in the corner, then look at VNC which will allow you to put your Linux desktop on your Windows computer. -- MELVILLE THEATRE ~ Melville Sask ~ http://www.melvilletheatre.com
