                  Yeah… the text that says " File name to write: /boot/config.tx"
                  That is hard written in grey… below that it gives options… G get help C cancel M-D Dos Format M-M Mac format M-A Append M-P Prepend M-B Backup file ^ to files

                    @johnnyboy yes, just confirming the filename, you can change it if u need to… you can edit a NEW file and have NO name specified in advance…

                      So how do i proceed? If I click ^cancel, i go back to my entry… then as soon as i click ^o to save, it goes to thst part that says file name…
                      I cannot save and exit past there.

                      I cannot hit ^x to exit as it wont work there… as if i need to select an option from the boxes below… I can only select ^c to cancel and go back.
