DaReaper,
Thank you for your reply. I never used notepad in windows. I do not know what nano or vi is. I did see Leafpad in the program list, but like Wine, which I downloaded, I do not know how to use it. I am 75 and, believe it or not, I built my computer from four old ones with one new RAM stick. I even have a 20 gig storage drive, but can not figure out how to save to it. I let a friend of mine talk me into using Unbuntu, os Linux. I had planned for Windows. I like Linux but can not figure a lot of it out. Eventually, I will be as proficient in linux as I was in Windows. Thank you for any help you can give me.
