Summary     : A sleek, simple, and powerful text editor for the GNOME desktop
Description :
Scribes is a simple and sleek text editor for the the GNOME desktop. It focuses
on keeping the working environment free from distractions, and providing strong
automation of mundane, repetitive tasks.

Through this simplicity, Scribes is very powerful. Its many features include:
* A dynamic templating system (called Snippets),
* Automatic completion of indentifiers and bracketing,
* Automatic indentation and file saving,
* Bookmarks,
* Drag-and-drop functionality,
* Full support for Unicode (UTF-8) text (and many other encodings),
* Syntax highlighting for over 30 programming languages,
* Powerful GNOME integration
* Translations into several different languages,
...and more are in development!

You may install the python-psyco package (x86-only) for a boost in startup
speed. Also, you will need to install the Yelp package for Scribes' built-in
help and documentation.

Update Information:

An issue was recently discovered wherein the tab-width on printing was hardcoded
to 4 spaces, and thus could cause much inconsistency between on-screen and on-
paper source code alignment.    This release of Scribes fixes that printing to
use the user-set preference if available, or fallback to the old default of 4
otherwise.
