In my experience, people who don&#x27;t know what editor they (want to) use won&#x27;t be hindered by it, because they&#x27;ll use Eclipse (or equivalent) perhaps the standard GUI editor on the system (TextEdit, Notepad, whatever) or else Google &#x27;text editor&#x27; and install Sublime or something.
