looking for a good src editor

[James Bagley <jimmy@akind.com>]

hey,

I recently joined this list looking for help on finding good linux
applications.

In the attempt to move to a Mirco$oft free environment I have run into
one, nearly solved, problem.  A lack of available applications that run
under linux.  I have learned that most all linux apps can be downloaded
for free.  The only problem that still remains then, is finding the
usefull applications (if they exist).

I am looking for a good text editor for C programing that does syntax
coloring and runs from a terminal.
