NAME
     Pluma - The MATE Text Editor

SYNOPSIS
     pluma [OPTIONS...] [FILES...]

DESCRIPTION
     Pluma  is	the  official text editor of the MATE desktop environment. While
     aiming at simplicity and ease of use, Pluma is a powerful	general  purpose
     text editor. It can be used to create and edit all sorts of text files.

     Pluma  features  a  flexible plugin system which can be used to dynamically
     add new advanced features to Pluma itself.

     This manual page briefly documents the pluma command.

OPTIONS
