Pyditor is, at the moment, a *very* basic text editor. It does no
formatting at all, never mind font support - it isn't even capable of
creating a new file if you give it a filename on the command-line which
doesn't already exist.

It is (I think) tiny, and it does its job well. It certainly isn't a word
processor though.

You going to write one? :-)
