NAME
gxedit - a graphical text editor
SYNOPSIS
gxedit [text file...] [options]
DESCRIPTION
This manual page briefly documents the gxedit program. This manual page was written for the Debian GNU/Linux distribution because the original program does not have a manual page. Instead, it has on-line help.
Gxedit is a GTK-based text editor with many useful features. It can is very configurable, and allows the use of filters for handling different file formats, and awk(1) and sed(1) scripts for all sorts of purposes. It has support for cvs(1) and some basic HTML tags, and some network support, and can even be used as a simple mail or news reader. One rather interesting feature is the "mirror" feature which allows other people to connect to your gxedit session and see everything you type.
