what is gedit?
gedit is a lightweight text editor for the GNOME desktop found in many
distributions of Linux, BSD and other Unix systems. Designed for the X
Window System, it uses the GTK+ and GNOME libraries. gedit is released
under the GNU General Public License (GPL).

The new gedit 2.3.x branch is very exciting, and certainly worthy of
introducing a gedit-devel port to the FreeBSD ports tree. 

The announcement of 2.3.1 has just been made, and can be found here:
http://www.gnome.org/project/shownotes.php?group_id=2&release_id=1869

Note that as of 2.3.x, GtkSourceView is also required:

The gedit-plugins package was announced on the gnome-announce-list
earlier today. Here is a snippet from the announcement:

If anyone has any technical questions regarding gedit 2.3.x or
gedit-plugins, please direct them to Paulo Maggi. He can be reached via
email at paolo.maggi at polito.it, or by IRC in #gedit on irc.gimp.org. He
is aware of my efforts of porting 2.3.x and the plugins package to
FreeBSD.


Thanks,
