# Editing w/ External Tools
You can use Neovide in other programs as editor, this page aims to document some quirks. Support for
that, however, is only possible as far as reasonably debuggable.
_Note: We do not endorse nor disrecommend usage of all programs listed here. All usage happens on
your own responsibility._
## [jrnl](https://github.com/jrnl-org/jrnl)
In your configuration file:
```yaml
editor: "neovide --nofork"
```
...as `jrnl` saves & removes the temporary file as soon as the main process exits, which happens
before startup by [forking](<https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fork_(system_call)>).
