NAME
     turbo - An experimental text editor based on Scintilla and Turbo Vision.

SYNOPSIS
     turbo [file...]

DESCRIPTION
     Turbo  is	an experimental text editor for the terminal, based on the Scin-
     tilla code editing component and the Turbo Vision application framework.

     It was created to demonstrate new features in Turbo Vision.  In particular,
     it has served as testing ground for Turbo Vision's Unicode capabilities.

     As a text editor, Turbo aims at being intuitive and easy to use.  And  sim-
     ply  because it is a Turbo Vision application, it offers a vintage look and
     feel.
