- This is the cover letter for my submission. This is the first time I
- have submitted source code. I looked throught the guidelines and I
- think I have done what is required. The source is in 15 parts
- which will follow. Here is the blurb from the beginning of the
- README file.

- THE POINT TEXT EDITOR FOR X
-
- Point is a text editor for X windows. It is specifically designed to use
- the mouse as much as possible in editing. It also provided convenient
- ways to keep a number of windows open on files and ways to copy text
- between and within files using the mouse.
-
- Some features of Point:
- * Unlimited number of windows and files
- * Easy move and copy within and between windows
- * Completely configurable: menus, key meanings, titles, etc.
- * Extensive options to modify the look and behavior
- * Uses Tcl as a macro language and the Tk toolkit
- * Flexible searching: for selection, for last string searched for,
- for a regular expression, for the last regular expression,
- for a string in a list of files, for a C tag.
- * File browsers vaguely similar to NeXT to load files.
- * Circular mouse menus, that is, "gesture" commands
- * Unlimited undo, redo and again (repeat last command)
