a simple and useful plain text editor is gedit which may already be in 
your installation.

you can use the gedit preferences to change display font size in the 
editor. this does not influence the font size for the rest of your 
installation.

i do a lot of editing in gedit and then just cut and paste the final 
results into my e-mail application.
