# A minimal single-window text editor using STDWIN's text objects.
#
# Usage: microedit file
#
# This is not intended as a real application but as an introduction
# to STDWIN programming in Python, especially text objects.
# Once you understand microedit.py, study miniedit.py to learn
# about multiple windows and menus, cut and paste, etc.
