Cooledit is a full-featured text editor, for Unix computers that run the X Window System. Cooledit was born from a need for a user friendly text editor that would rival editors of other operating systems in ease of use and convenience. Lately Cooledit is also a powerful programmer's editor. It is also small and fast, making it ideal for interface with applications that allow for, or require, an external editor. See 'Features' in the man page for a more elaborate description of what Cooledit can do.
