gedit

Popular text editor for the GNOME desktop environment

gedit is a general-purpose text editor. It has been created in 1998, at the beginnings of GNOME.

The first goal of gedit is to be easy to use, with a simple interface by default. More advanced features are available by enabling plugins.

gedit is a text editor which supports most standard editor features, extending this basic functionality with other features not usually found in simple text editors. gedit is a graphical application which supports editing multiple text files in one window (known sometimes as tabs or MDI). . gedit fully supports international text through its use of the Unicode UTF-8 encoding in edited files. Its core feature set includes syntax highlighting of source code, auto indentation and printing and print preview support. . gedit is also extensible through its plugin system, which currently includes support for spell checking, comparing files, viewing CVS ChangeLogs, and adjusting indentation levels.
