+FeatherPad (by Pedram Pourang, a.k.a. Tsu Jan) is a lightweight Qt
+plain-text editor for Linux. It is independent of any desktop
+environment. Some of the features include:
+
+ 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.
+ Optional selection highlighting.
+ Automatic detection of text encoding as far as possible and
+ optional saving with encoding.
+ Syntax highlighting for common programming languages.
+ Ability to open URLs with appropriate applications.
+ Session management.
+ Side-pane mode.
+ Auto-saving.
+ Spell checking with Hunspell.
+ Printing.
+ Text zooming.
+ Appropriate but non-interrupting prompts.
+
+FeatherPad was written in GTK+ at first, then ported to Qt with more
+features.
+
+Note:
+
+FeatherPad can be compiled without X11 support:
+
+ NOX11=on ./featherpad.SlackBuild
+
+the result will have all features except for virtual desktop awareness
+and tab DND. On Linux, FeatherPad works under Wayland and you don't
+need to disable its X11 support for that.
+
+To compile with X11 support:
+
+ ./featherpad.Slackbuild
