Linux - File editors

so basically we have seen how we can

create modify and delete a file but then

now we haven't seen how we can modify a

file by using the editors like if I have

already added a particular date I into a

file and if I want to add more data into

it

or if I want to replace the existing

particular word from a firm how we'll be

using it or how we'll be doing it so for

that we have multiple editors provided

by your Linux operating system into

already distributors so when it first

editor we have called as G edit called

as a graphical editor this is good for

the basic user or the users who are

learning annex operating system so it

provides you just like an old pad

console where you can add the content to

your file and you can modify it and just

save by using the ctrl C or by file save

option so this is very basic editor into

Linux operating system

but for this editor you should have a

dick stop utility or a dick stop

terminal if you do not have an extra

terminal how you are going to modify

your file so for that we have two

different editors called as a nano

editor and your VI or VI a man-eater

nano editor is very old editor we are

using this editor since we are using the

UNIX operating system and the advanced

our heater which we are using nowadays

is called as a VI called us we shall

edit editor or visual editor mode so

this editor mode has enhanced option we

can search we can find or we can we can

replace the data's into this VM any

turns as well so let us see how we use

this particular editors so here we can

see to edit the file now so already we

have created two different files here

that is your fruits and the numbers now

if I want to modify before so till now

we have seen fruit you know yessum and

as well as we have seen the cat come on

so that he key with the content of a

file but if I want to modify the file

and if I use the same enough cat command

and use the redirect click shine so what

it will do it will replace the existing

you know file commands completely or the

file data completely so in spite of

using the

I generally will go for the g8 which is

the graphical editor we have now if

suppose I want to add or you know remove

any of the food names fruit names or if

I want to you know to make some changes

into it or I want to modify a file so we

can go for G edit which is a graphical

editor we do have so once you click on G

edit you will find that it contains sub

all the filename now if I want to change

or you know I want to delete some of the

filename which are repeated and I want

to add a few more names over here like

for example I want to add

sweet limes if I want to add more of it

any of the you know fruit names we can

define like like grapes click so we can

add this and pause that I want to save

it like your notepad you can save it

directly over here once you have saved

it directly you can move here then we

can check your fruit names then see it's

been added so this is the you know

easiest editor you will have if you are

using on graphical console but what if

ever you are using a terminal so for

that we will be having a different

editor which we are going to see into
