# 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**.
