3.2 Windows editors

If you have a reasonably fast Internet connection, you can download a source code file, edit on a PC running Windows, then upload the modified file back to the originating Linux box. This is really not as bad as it seems. WinSCP is a program that you can use to transfer files. WinSCP can also download, edit and upload files all with just a few clicks.

In Windows, you can use the built-in editors like notepad and wordpad. However, there are plenty of open source programmer editors out there, most can perform syntax highlighting, parantheses matching, block hiding and other cool features.
