I don't think it's right for you but I use VS Code when wanting a GUI editor and 'joe' on the command line.

I have recently set up a new desk top computer, and I am having some fun 

playing with it. I do need to use a text editor quite often, and I have 

used gedit for some time now. Unfortunately it has changed quite a lot 

recently and I am not very happy with the current way it looks and works.

So I am asking for some suggestions for a replacement please. I have 

been look around the internet and, as usual, have finished up very confused.

Please though, do not suggest vi or vim. I have considered kate, but 

that is really for KDE and I am using MX Linux which is based on Debian.

I have also looked at jedit, but that is much too involved for what I 

want, just a simple text editor, with a spell check.
