I am looking for a GUI text editor on Linux with a GUI which will allow me to connect to other machines via SSH and edit text files on these machines.

Is there such a thing or is there another way to do this with an encrypted connection?

    If you are doing this as root, I have to question what it is you’re up to. The only time you should be editing files as root is config files, and then vim or nano should meet your needs.

    Yes I only want to use root to edit config files. However I hate using nano and vim since they are TUI. I would like to use a GUI when editing config files.
