I still use vi for most stuff...gedit works well for quick smb.conf changes...about all I ever do is config files so my demands aren't to high and vi just comes naturally.

vi is kinda cool, but hard to remember the power user stuff for it.

That's just like you baz8080.
I like nano but there are some small problems with long lines.
I use emacs most of the time.

Emacs can be found here
http://www.gnu.org/software/emacs/

Nano can be found here
http://www.nano-editor.org/

Note that these are probably packaged with your distribution.
For Debian: nano is included by default in woody. If not included just type "apt-get install nano emacs", that should do the trick if apt is well configured.
For rpm based distros, search your cd's for a package called like nano.rpm or emacs.rpm with a version number.

Good ol' Emacs' my editor of choice for Linux. I even have the Windows port version installed, but it doesn't beat TextPad.
