.SH NAME
Ted \- an easy rich text editor
.SH SYNOPSIS
.B Ted
.I "[ filename ]"
.SH "DESCRIPTION"
This manual page briefly documents the program
.BR Ted.
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; see below.
.PP
.BR Ted
is a text processor running under X Windows on Unix/Linux systems.
.BR Ted
uses RTF (rich text format), a document format supported by
Microsoft(tm) word processors, and various other applications, mostly
(but not exclusively) on the MS-Windows(tm) platform.
.PP
.BR Ted
is designed to be as compatible as possible with MS-Windows(tm)
applications. Every document produced by
.BR Ted
should, without any loss
of formatting or information, be accepted as a legal .rtf file by
MS-Word(tm). Compatibility in the other direction is more difficult
to achieve.
.BR Ted
supports most basic text formatting, as supported by the Microsoft
applications. Other formatting instructions and meta information are
ignored.
.PP
.I Ted
includes support for in-line bitmap pictures, postscript printing,
spell checking, tables, symbols, and more.
.PP
A sample application defaults file can be found in
/usr/doc/ted/examples/Ted.ad.sample.gz. This file requires editing to
be useful with Debian GNU/Linux, which is why it is not installed by
default.
.SH "SEE ALSO"
The file /usr/doc/ted/ted/readme.txt.gz or the on-line help available
within Ted.
.SH AUTHOR
This manual page was written by Chris Waters <xtifr@debian.org>,
for the Debian GNU/Linux system (but may be used by others).
