This doesn’t really have a name. Even in it’s source it’s just called “Text editor”.

Small, easy. Needs some basic functionality but is still quite useful.

The text editor which comes with Midnight Commander.
A decent text editor which I keep forgetting I have.
Unlike Midnight Commander itself, mcedit doesn’t appear to exist under Windows.

Not impressive compared to mcedit from Midnight Commander.

A shitty text editor.
Compared to vi a lot. They both suck.

vi + usefulness (menus) — Not bad. Not great, but not bad. Still vi, so it mostly sucks.

vi is a textmode editor. It’s so bad even the author regrets it.
For some fucking reason, Linux distributions almost all include it by default.
The only editor I know of which can handle huge files. So horribly horrible though. =(
Ruby-capable, I hear.
