General Information
-------------------
gnotepad+ is an easy-to-use, yet fairly feature-rich, simple text editor for
Unix based systems running X11 and using GTK (the Gimp ToolKit). gnotepad+ was
designed to have as little bloat as possible, while still providing many of the
common features found in a modern GUI-based text editor. It is still fairly
light-weight, especially for the features it offers, and aims to remain that
way.
The "+" in gnotepad+ is there to differentiate it from other GTK-based text
editors which may call themselves "gnotepad". Additionally, gnotepad+ is not
intended to be fancy, so it leverages its text editing capabilities on the GTK
Text Widget. Hence, if you are looking for a programmers's editor, look for
another text editor or help improve the GTK Text Widget.
Requirements
------------
- A Unix-based operating system with X-Windows.
- The latest *stable* (not development) version of GTK correctly installed.
If you do not have GTK, you can get it at http://www.gtk.org.
- An ANSI C compiler (e.g., gcc will work).
Features
--------
- Multiple windows, multiple documents
- Complete preferences system (no need to edit any config files)
- Recent document menu
- Popup Document list
- Popup Window list
- Popup Messages box
- Menu accelerators that work
- Document autosave
- Save window size and position
- File locking using fcntl() or flock()
- Other configurable options: toolbars, document tabs, etc.
- Lots of other miscellaneous goodies
- Fairly clean code that's actually commented/documented!
