2. VIM was suggested in this forum.

- who uses this in 2023?

3. Abiword

- alaraajavamma says she uses it on the Pinephone
- But I was not able to write to the external SD card with it
- after a installed postmarketOS with Abiword on the exernal SD card, I was able to open Abiword files on a Ubuntu PC, save it to an SD card again.
- But when I come back to my Pinephone I had issues most probably because of Abiword format mess.

- not only me had this issues with Abiword formats, there are a number of Abiword format issues reported:

4. A user suggested LyX word processor instead of Abiword

- I installed  Version 2.3.7 (Sonntag, 1. Januar 2023) on my PC
- it looks similar to Abword
- there are more recent versions available than for Abword
- instructions for LyX are quiet academic and very extended
- still it looks great on my Windows 10 PC and simple

- does someone use  LyX on his Pinephone?

-  It looks as if it was an option to replace Abiword if it messes up with file formats.
