Beaver README Marc Bevand, Damien Terrier, and Emmanuel Turquin, 2000-2002 Michael Terry 2003, Higor Eurípedes 2008 INTRODUCTION ------------ First of all, many thanks for your interest in Beaver. Beaver is an Early AdVanced EditoR, for Linux and other Unices (and even Windows); in other words, it's a text editor that is lightweight but full of features for programming, from web authoring to C programming. It is based on the GTK+ toolkit, supports tons of languages through config files (100% compatible with UltraEdit 'wordfile.txt' -- see ultraedit.com for more informations) and offers functions such as automatic indentation, correction and completion, or syntax highlighting. It also has its own mini macro language. Beaver is released under the GNU General Public License and has been started as an end-of-year project for our second year at the french computing school EPITA. Of course, any remark or advice (or even contribution) are the welcome! INSTALL ------- Please see the file INSTALL for instructions on installation.
