To Install NEdit on Ubuntu 18.04
NEdit, the Nirvana editor, is a text editor and source code editor for the X Window System. It has an interface similar to text editors on Microsoft Windows and Macintosh, rather than to older UNIX editors like Emacs. With this, the method to install NEdit on Ubuntu 18.04 comes to an end.

Frequently asked questions ( 5 )

Q

When NEdit starts up, I get errors?

A

The solution is either to start Netscape last, after all, other applications that you might want to run or better, tell Netscape how many colors it is allowed to allocate. Fortunately, you can do this with a resource setting:



Netscape*maxImageColors: 80

Q

When I try to use nc to start an nedit server, for instance?

A

nc (filename)
I receive the following error message:

(filename): forward host lookup failed:
Host name lookup failure: Connection refused

Q

What is NEdit on Ubuntu?

A

NEdit, the Nirvana editor, is a text editor and source code editor for the X Window System. It has an interface similar to text editors on Microsoft Windows and Macintosh, rather than to older UNIX editors like Emacs.

Q

NEdit is slow and pages continuously on my 8MB Linux system. What can I do?

A

On most Unix workstations, 8MB of RAM is actually insufficient to run X and Motif properly. Some Linux users get by with it and Linux itself seems to be quite memory efficient, but you really should have 12 or 16 if you're going to be using X much. NEdit would not be my first choice in editors on an 8MB system.

Q

How to Install NEdit on Ubuntu?

A

# apt-get install nedit
