Scribes is a lightweight free text editor for GNOME licensed under the terms of the GNU General Public License (GPLv3).

Features

Its features include crash-recovery via automatic saving, syntax highlighting, snippets, automatic word completion, pair character completion, smart indentation, bookmarks, and various text editing functions.

The result is a text editor that provides a fluid user experience, that is easy and fun to use and that ensures the safety of your documents at all times."
