LEAFPAD.1(1)

NAME
leafpad - GTK+ based simple text editor

DESCRIPTION
leafpad is a simple GTK+ based text editor. The user interface is similar to Windows(tm) I&lt;notepad&gt;. It aims to be lighter than GEdit and KWrite and to be as useful as them.

B&lt;WARNING:&gt; The encoding feature is derived from built-in Glib's iconv feature (g_convert), which you can check with command C&lt;iconv -l&gt;. Leafpad can use only the listed encoding. Any other encoding cause serious data loss.
