Hello,
is it possible to start an GUI-Texteditor, such as "MeeTxtEdit", as root?
So that a can edit and save files in /usr/bin.
I tried it with "vi" in the terminal, but I am not good in recognizing shortcuts.
Maybe there is an other Editor with the Option: "start as root".
Please dont start a Discussion about the Power of Vi or Emacs, because I know they are very mighty.
But mighty Editors need responsible Users.
And I´m not such a User ;-)
Thanks in advance,
Roland
