Visual editor
}}
A visual editor, or full-screen editor is computer software for editing text files using a textual or graphical user interface which displays the content (text) in an easy to view form.
If the text contains html markup code that would normally display on a web-page, the visual editor hides the actual html commands, and shows instead what the web-page would look like when properly formatted. Edits made to the page appear in real time, correctly formatted, and is often referred to as WYSIWYG (What You See Is What You Get).[1][2][3]
By definition, all visual editors require a re-fresh-able display device and all editors with a GUI are visual. Editors that are running through a command-line interpreter, however, may or may not be.
