For this I use the xi-editor. 20 Gb text file? No problem.

I didn't realize Xi was in a "usable" state now. What frontend do you use?
It is usable for reading and editing files. Not something I'd use all day, but if I need to edit a huge file, there aren't really great options for that.
Oh, that's great. I saw the announcement of xi-editor when it was in its early stages, I'll git it a try.
Last time I checked there was no vim keybindings :(
