Highlights
==========
- A complete rewrite of Mousepad. The code is now written in GOjects
  where possible so we have a solid base for further development.
- Run multiple windows in one instance. We also invoke a running
  instance with DBus (optional), this is needed for tab DND between
  windows.
- Drag and Drop support for text inside a document, between tabs and
  between windows.  Also supports opening a file by dragging it into
  the window.
- Support for multiple tabs in one window which are both reorderable
  and detachable.
- Load multiple files at once from both the open dialog and the command
  line.
- Type-ahead find and highlight feature like Firefox.
- Support for editable menu accelerators.
- Reimplemented recent file support. You can cleanup the Mousepad history
  and a file is removed from the history when Mousepad was unable to open
  it.
- Syntax highlighting of many filetypes (including printing).
- Various hidden settings.
- Statusbar with filetype, cursor location and whether overwrite is
  actived.
- Mousepad depends on GTK+ 2.20.
