What can I use in SSH that is equivalent to "edit" in DOS? I would like to modify some html files and config files.

I like to use "vi" but it can take a bit to get use to. You can try "pico" which is similar to the traditional DOS edit command.

nano is another one that I forgot to mention.

vim is what I like to use - vi improved! which has syntax highlighting and allows you to use the up and down arrows.
