# mousepad
Mousepad is a simple text editor for the [Xfce](https://www.xfce.org) desktop environment.
Mousepad aims to be an easy-to-use and fast editor. Our target is an
editor for quickly editing text files, not a development environment or an
editor with a huge bunch of plugins. On the other hand we try to use the latest
GTK features available, which means that if GTK adds something new in a major
release that is useful for the editor, we will likely bump the GTK dependency
and integrate this new feature in Mousepad.
