Features
Mined is a modeless editor, with menus and mouse support, and key bindings optimized for intuitive and fast navigation (optionally using control key bindings or various editors).
It fully supports Unicode, including combining characters and bi-directional text, as well as converting to and from a large number of legacy encodings.
Mined also contains functionality usually only found in word processors, such as smart quotes.
File management
Mined has an interactive file chooser; backup files (optionally versioned), file locking and recovery files which are interoperable with other editors, and file change monitoring.
