The discedit tool allows you to edit Discourse topics in your favourite local text editor. It works by pulling a topic from Discourse, opening it in a local text editor and automatically pushing the edits.
You will need to install Go and have a Discourse API key. The key should be personal (set to a single user) and the scope should be set to global (allows all actions). If you don't have the rights to handle keys, get in touch with the administrator of your Discourse installation.
