I'm using PabloDraw on Windows, and since my BBS runs on the same Win machine
in WSL2 (essentially a headless Ubuntu VM), I can easily navigate to the
files via Windows explorer and open/edit/save them.

Otherwise, I'd need a Linux based editor that doesn't rely on X. I've tried
SyncDraw binary but couldn't get it to run - there's a note on the site that
says 'NOTE: *nix binaries aren't statically linked due to Linux hating it' -
but no idea what that means in terms of getting it to run :)

Cheers,
