Opening text files
 

Is there a way to use kwrite or a text editor to open up text files?, cuz everytime i open up a text file konquerer opens up then to modify the file i have to open it up again with a text editor. thanks

Right-click on any text file in Konq, select Edit File Type, go to Embedding tab, and select the Use settings for 'text' group radio button (option).

Thats exactly what ive been doing and its not working, Can i just get rid of konqorer all together or is that like explorer?

That is why I use GNOME and Nautilus :)
Edit: This is just a joke!!

No, really. There are several file managers for Linux, but if you feel like it, you could do so in the konsole (kwrite /path/to/file/<filename>)

What Linux distribution do you use? In Red Hat Linux 9 :

Konqueror -> Right click on text file -> Open with -> option at the bottom -> remember binding for filetype.

I use Kde, on RH8

Should be the same in RH8 as in RH9 (minor KDE version difference).

From Konqueror ->
Click on a text file with the right mouse button ->
Select "Open with" ->
Select the option at the bottom (I'm using the Dutch version, so I don't know the English name for this option) ->
Select something like 'remember binding for filetype.'
