Should I install my text editor from the ubuntu software store or download it manually? And how do I download it manually?

    You haven't mentioned which release you're using, nor which text editor you actually want; however Xubuntu comes with mousepad which is the Xfce text editor already (it's pretty good & the most efficient resource wise for use with the Xfce desktop as it uses libs already in memory as used by the desktop).. If you wanted to install mousepad via command, it would be sudo apt install mousepad. Since mousepad isn't available as snap, I'll use gedit as example, but to install a snap it's snap install gedit (gedit is available in deb format too so you can apt install gedit) – guiverc Jun 12 '21 at 06:58
  • Geany is a good text editor, that you can install with sudo apt install geanyfrom the repository universe. – sudodus Jun 12 '21 at 07:25
