<![CDATA[Is there a decent text editor for Ubuntu Touch?]]>Is there a decent text editor for Ubuntu Touch? Nothing fancy, just some app other than nano (which is no fun without a keyboard) that can open and edit text files (with or without .txt in their name), save them to a directory of my choice and has basic functions such as copy, paste, select all?

I tried Light P Word Processor, tededit, utext, but unfortunately none of them fit the criteria above. Am I out of options?

I use it more text editing though 😄

You can use seabass 2 as a text editor i guess, even if it is a code editing app.

Otherwise the ones you already mentioned are the best current choices.
