I prefer the emacs editor myself. Normally it requires a X server, but it can
be started in console mode with the -nw switch
so, I would do
$ emacs -nw xorg.conf
edit the file
to save control-x control-s
to exit control-x control-c

p.s. beware - the backspace key sometimes deletes the 'wrong' way in -nw
mode...
