Description of Ted
------------------

Ted is a text processor running on Unix/Linux systems. 
Ted was developed as a standard easy word processor, 
having the role of Wordpad on MS-Windows. Since then, 
Ted has evolved to a real word processor that still has 
the same easy appearance as the original. The possibility 
to type a letter, a note or a report on a Unix/Linux 
machine is clearly missing. Only too often, you have 
to turn to MS-Windows machine to write a letter or a
document. Ted was made to make it possible to edit rich 
text documents on Unix/Linux in a wysiwyg way. RTF files
from Ted are fully compatible with MS-Word. Additionally,
Ted also is an RTF to PostScript and an RTF to Acrobat PDF
converter.

To my own modest opinion, Ted is really easy to use and of
good quality. I hope that you will find Ted useful.

Changes since version 2.11
(Ted 2.12 December 1, 2002)
*       Fixes in image rendering.
*       GTK version is now more mature and even usable. Source Adapted to GTK 2.0
*       Solid shading of paragraphs and table cells.
*       Colored table cell borders.
*       Text colors.
*       GTK version uses X11 resources for configuration,
        like the Motif version.
