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 dynami-
       cally add new advanced features to Pluma	itself.

       This manual page	briefly	documents the pluma command.

OPTIONS
       filename(s)...
	      Specifies	the file to open when pluma starts.  If	 this  is  not
	      specified,  pluma	 will start a new, blank file with an "Unsaved
	      Document"	label. Multiple	files can be loaded if they are	 sepa-
	      rated by spaces. pluma also supports handling of remote files.

       +[num] For  the	first  file, go	to the line specified by "num" (do not
	      insert a space between the "+" sign and the number).   If	 "num"
	      is missing, go to	the last line.
