#### Fast, simple text editor with syntax highlighting, projects and terminal

Apedi is a lightweight GTK 4 / GtkSourceView 5 editor that stays out of
your way. It bundles formatters and a small set of IDE conveniences while
keeping the start-up footprint of a plain text editor.

Features:

* Multi-tab, multi-window, drag & drop
* Syntax highlighting for ~150 languages
* Code formatting (Ctrl+Shift+I) via bundled black / prettier /
  gofmt / rustfmt / clang-format / shfmt
* Multi-project sidebar — .gitignore-aware, per-extension icons and
  colors, auto-reveal of the active tab
* Quick Open (Ctrl+P) and Find in Files (Ctrl+Shift+F)
* Go to Symbol in file (Ctrl+M)
* Integrated VTE terminal with bash and zsh (Ctrl+`)
* Optional autosave (delay / focus loss)
* Crash recovery: drafts survive unexpected exits
* File watcher — external edits reload, or warn if dirty
* Localized UI (English, Polski)
* Snippets, code folding, tabbed Preferences, dark / light / auto theme
* Strict snap confinement — no host-write access beyond the user's home
  and any drives plugged in via removable-media

Default keybindings follow gedit / VS Code conventions.

## Enable snaps on Red Hat Enterprise Linux and install Apedi

Snaps are applications packaged with all their dependencies to run on all popular Linux distributions from a single build. They update automatically and roll back gracefully.

Snaps are discoverable and installable from the [Snap Store](https://snapcraft.io/store), an app store with an audience of millions.

### Enable snapd

Snap is available for [Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL) 8](https://www.redhat.com/en/enterprise-linux-8) and RHEL 7, from the 7.6 release onward.

The packages for RHEL 7, RHEL 8, and RHEL 9 are in each distribution’s respective [Extra Packages for Enterprise Linux](https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/EPEL) (EPEL) repository. The instructions for adding this repository diverge slightly between RHEL 7, RHEL 8 and RHEL 9, which is why they’re listed separately below.

The EPEL repository can be added to **RHEL 9** with the following command:

```
sudo dnf install https://dl.fedoraproject.org/pub/epel/epel-release-latest-9.noarch.rpm
sudo dnf upgrade
```

The EPEL repository can be added to **RHEL 8** with the following command:

```
sudo dnf install https://dl.fedoraproject.org/pub/epel/epel-release-latest-8.noarch.rpm
sudo dnf upgrade
```

The EPEL repository can be added to **RHEL 7** with the following command:

```
sudo rpm -ivh https://dl.fedoraproject.org/pub/epel/epel-release-latest-7.noarch.rpm
```

Adding the *optional* and *extras* repositories is also recommended:

```
sudo subscription-manager repos --enable "rhel-*-optional-rpms" --enable "rhel-*-extras-rpms"
sudo yum update
```

Snap can now be installed as follows:

```
sudo yum install snapd
```

Once installed, the *systemd* unit that manages the main snap communication socket needs to be enabled:

```
sudo systemctl enable --now snapd.socket
```

To enable *classic* snap support, enter the following to create a symbolic link between `/var/lib/snapd/snap` and `/snap`:

```
sudo ln -s /var/lib/snapd/snap /snap
```

Either log out and back in again or restart your system to ensure snap’s paths are updated correctly.
