      I only have 1 keyboard and mouse, and its kind of annoying plugging and unplugging them into different devices while trying to play with the pi.

        @heiswinston sure, use the bisvise ssh client, (free) it will give you a file manager view of the pi files, on your pc, and then you can double click to edit like always…

        i use notepad++ as my windows text editor
