How to run

All features can be accessed directly from the main window.

The following text file formats can be read and opened by the text editor: .txt, .rtf, .odt

The following source code formats can be read and opened by the text editor: .java, .py, .cpp, .html, .xml

The above source code formats are colour coded by their respective syntax.

Text in the main window can be saved to either .txt or .pdf format, depending on which menu button is clicked.

Both are automatically assigned their file types. Saving to PDF creates a file My_PDF.pdf in the directory where the root folder is. Saving to .txt requires the user to select the location and the file name. Adding a .txt suffix when saving is not necessary, the function does that automatically.

Search allows the user to search for a single word. If found, all instances of the word in the document will be highlighted. If not, a popup window will inform the user that their search was unsuccessful.

Interesting features:

We elected to give our text editor a colour scheme similar to that of The Matrix, to make it more aesthetically pleasing.
