ABOUT:
========
FeatherPad (by Pedram Pourang, a.k.a. Tsu Jan <tsujan2000@gmail.com>) is a lightweight Qt5 plain-text editor for Linux. It is independent of any desktop environment and has:

* Drag-and-drop support, including tab detachment and attachment;
* X11 virtual desktop awareness (using tabs on current desktop but opening a new window on another);
* An optionally permanent search-bar with a different search entry for each tab;
* Instant highlighting of found matches when searching;
* A docked window for text replacement;
* Support for showing line numbers and jumping to a specific line;
* Automatic detection of text encoding as far as possible and optional saving with encoding;
* Syntax highlighting for common programming languages;
* Printing;
* Text zooming;
* Appropriate but non-interrupting prompts;

And other features that can be found in its settings, on its menus or when it is actually used.

Please see INSTALL for instructions on compilation and installation!

FeatherPad was written in GTK+-2.0 at first, then ported to GTK+-3.0, Qt4 (with new features) and, at last, Qt5.
