Unless you decide to switch to a modern console-based text editor. It doesn't have to be vim or emacs. There are many other alternatives. One new such (written-in-Rust) editor being Iota: https://github.com/gchp/iota https://github.com/gchp/iota

It's open source, lightweight & fast, and can also run in the terminal if needed. Usually I just go for Vim, but sometimes I need something else and in those cases I want to avoid heavyweights like VS Code.
