                            Introduction
======================================================================
Xed is a lightweight text editor forked from Pluma and is the default
text editor in Linux Mint.

Xed is a graphical application which supports editing multiple text
files in one window via tabs. It fully supports international text
through its use of the Unicode UTF-8 encoding. As a general-purpose
text editor, Xed supports most standard editor features, and
emphasizes simplicity and ease of use. Its core feature set includes
syntax highlighting of source code, auto indentation, and printing
support with print preview.
