Text editors are available for the command line as well as graphical programs for the desktop environment. On the command line, three lines of text editors are well-known:

* [[nano|GNU nano]]
* [[emacs|GNU emacs]] 
* [[vi]], which has evolved through [[vim]], [[neovim]] with its various distributions, and now also [[Kakoune]] and [[Helix]]. The latter two have partially reversed the keybindings.

These factors, along with the different programming languages for configuration, varying default settings, and plugin ecosystems, make the choice of a text editor more significant and long-lasting than it might initially appear.
