Installation

Requirements

In its bid for minimalism, Textadept also needs very little to run. In fact, the only thing it needs is GTK+ 2.0. It has it's own version of Lua compiled in.

Linux

Most Linux systems already have GTK+ installed. If not, it is probably available through your package manager. Otherwise, compile and install it from the GTK+ website.

Mac OSX

There is a GTK+ Mac OSX Framework available in contrast to using GTK+ from Fink or DarwinPorts/MacPorts in conjuction with X11. You will need to get the latest TESTING framework that supports versioning. Note that Textadept is designed for Intel Leopard Macs.

Windows

Windows systems need the GTK+ 2.0 Runtime installed.

Download

Textadept can be downloaded from the project page. Select the appropriate package for your platform.

Installation

Linux and Windows

For Linux and Windows machines, simply unpack the archive anywhere and you are ready to go.

Mac OSX

For Mac OSX machines, unpack the archive and move textadept.app to your user or system Applications directory like any other application.
