Jerry,

I don't know if Kate is the best programming editor
for Linux - but it should be on your Mandrake 9.2
installation if you have KDE installed - its part of
the KDEBASE package. Which desktop are you using? Kate
and Kwrite are shown on my KDE/Mandrake editor menu's
and I can access them from Gnome and XFCE as well.

1. try typing "kate" into an xterm window
2. Wait for Irv to come up with a real answer

Rots a' Ruck,
Ken
