Basic text editor in command prompt? [closed]
I made a simple VIM clone from batch to satisfy your needs.
@echo offtitle WinVimcolor aclsecho WinVim 1.02echo.echo To save press CTRL+Z then press enterecho.echo Make sure to include extension in file nameset /p name=File Name:copy con %name%if exist %name% copy %name% + conHope this helps :)
There is also a port of nano for windows, which is more more akin to notepad.exe than vim is

Get the WINNT zip. Tested in Windows 7 works as expected
I want to add that it is very strange to introduce Core and Nano servers without native console full-featured editor. Like others I`ll recommend to use vim or nano. But my suggestion is to install it via OneGet (require WMF5)! They both are presented in Chocolatey repository so installation is simple and fast:
PS C:> Find-Package -Name vim | Format-Table -AutoSizeName Version Status ProviderName Source Summary---- ------- ------ ------------ ------ -------vim 7.4.638 Available Chocolatey chocolatey Vim is an advanced text editor...PS C:> Install-Package vim
