FeatherPad is a lightweight Qt plain-text editor for Linux. It is independent of any desktop environment and has: * Drag-and-drop support, including tab detachment and attachment; * X11 virtual desktop awareness (using tabs on current desktop but opening a new window on another); * An optionally permanent search-bar with a different search entry for each tab; * Instant highlighting of found matches when searching; * A docked window for text replacement; * Support for showing line numbers and jumping to a specific line; * Automatic detection of text encoding as far as possible and optional saving with encoding; * Syntax highlighting for common programming languages; * Printing; * Text zooming; * Appropriate but non-interrupting prompts;
