L3afpad - GTK+ based simple text editor

Description

L3afpad is a simple GTK+ text editor that emphasizes simplicity. As development focuses on keeping weight down to a minimum, only the most essential features are implemented in the editor. L3afpad is simple to use, is easily compiled, requires few libraries, and starts up quickly.

L3afpad differs from it's ancestor leafpad, in that it uses GTK3 (while leafpad uses GTK2).
