Re: "cannot open theme file" stuck (and lost) in command mode!

vi and vim can be a bit confusing for beginners - especially if they're stuck at the commandline - maybe nano would be an easier way to go?

Just a suggestion to make a difficult beginner task a bit easier...

Yes, agreed. nano is a very nice, and user friendly (way more so than vi) CLI editor. It is not installed by default IIRC. So, lostNoob, if you want a nice CLI (command line) editor, nano is a good choice. You can install it from KPackagekit or from the CLI with:

sudo apt-get install nano

interesting... I'm no longer using Kubuntu (moved to Arch - not due to any disappointment with Kubuntu though, I just wanted a rolling release and PekWM) but I thought it was preinstalled after a quick google search of the ubuntu documentation.

Well, as I stated, "...is not installed by default IIRC." Guess I rememberd incorrectly.

Thank you for jogging the memory cells (needed every now and then).
