Your options on the Raq are probably VI, Pico or Emacs. SSH into your
machine, I assume you have telnet turned off and type man program_name for
the manual pages. eg.

man pico

I think most newbies tend to use Pico for ease of use/learning. I'm sure
google will also turn up some good how-to's for either of these three
programs. Happy searching!
