text editor and...
I NEED a decent text editor and some tool like ARK o similar to install software from slackbuilds...
I installed the series : a|ap|d|l|n|x|xfce and full from inet... tia! |
In my opinion text editor preference is a personal thing. Slackware ships with quite a few editors: elvis, vim, emacs, joe, kate and probably a few others.
As for running SlackBuild scripts, you might want to read SlackBuild Usage HOWTO. As long as you have a full install, follow the directions for running SlackBuild scripts and read the appropriate files in the SlackBuild (README, *.info) you shouldn't run into many problems. |
There's ark in kde series. mc, I guess, is similar in a way, and you should have it by now. It would be surprising if you didn't like ANY of the shipped editors, but at the moment you are missing kde apps and emacs. Do you have a particular editor in mind?

Instead of ARK, how about using the command line to decompress the package? Save's you the step of having to decompress the tarball with a second program before opening a terminal to build & install.
Code:
tar xvzf package-name.tar.gz |
this:
Code:
wget http://sbopkg.googlecode.com/files/sbopkg-0.37.0-noarch-1_cng.tgz Code:
sbopkg -r Code:
sbopkg -i geany ;) |
Congrats! Glad you got the correct solution so quickly.

Better yet, use bsdtar, then you can use the same extraction command for extracting tar, ar (deb), rpm, cpio, zip, rar, iso and more Code:
bsdtar xvf archivename |
Xarchive works good too in case that's what you were talking about.

Vim!
