Why?
|
|
====
|
|
|
|
If you are wondering why medit is written, there are two answers:
|
|
1) It wasn't a decision to write a text editor. It happened during
|
|
more than one year of GGAP development. And no, there is no usable
|
|
GTK text editor component.
|
|
2) Try it: if you like it, you know why. If you don't like it, ask
|
|
vim/emacs guys why don't they use emacs/vim.
