Snikket was easy to setup for my family.

No worries. I’ve been using vim for years and still don’t use anything fancier than marks and regex editing. 😄

$ vimtutor

I did this several years ago. It worked well for a few months, and then burnt out the phones. They’re not meant to run 24/7 and on a charger the whole time.

Try it, and if you don’t like it try another. They’re free.
