xpad

Xpad is a simple xaw-using text editor that's more simple than xedit, much of xpad's interactions are though it's main menu accessed via right-clicking anywhere on the main and only window of xpad, and the many dialog windows.

Also, xpad does not have any built-in lisp interpreters like xedit, and anything more then "edit, open, find, replace, and save" will not be included in xpad. In short, an alternate-timeline classic notepad.exe

Usage

xpad (filename) -arguements

Replace (filename) with the file name as needed, also please note that xpad can't handle more than one file.

Arguements

-v Disables most of the verbosity from the runtime logs that will be found if you run xpad from a terminal.

-r Enables restricted mode, only the file opened with arguements can be viewed; opening, cutting, deleteing text, saving, and save-as functionality is phrobited.

-1 Control clicking for menus in case the mouse button used only has one mouse button.

Issues & bugs

• Currently there is no save checking, this might be changed in the future.

• Xpad when given a arguement with mutiple files will always pick the last one from a list. This matches what xedit would do if given a simular set of multiple file arguements.

• Undo and redo are not implemented until a later date or by someone else.
