Ted is a word processor for the X Window System environment, which runs on Linux and other Unix-like systems. Developed primarily by Mark de Does, Ted is a lightweight, yet full-featured word processor.
It saves files in a Microsoft Word-compatible rich text format and has support for headers, footers, tables, different fonts, text alignment, and other features common to word processors. Ted has been localized into various languages.
While the program includes a spell checker, it does not check for spelling as the user types. It is a very light-weight and fast word processor, making it ideal for older computers and embedded systems.
Ted is currently using the Motif toolkit for widget rendering and compiles and runs fine when compiled with LessTif. A GTK+ version is currently under development.
Ted is free software licensed under the terms of the GNU General Public License (GPL).
