Geadow -- A Fake Emacs trial on GNOME2

  Geadow is a editor with Emacs style keybinds and Emacs-lisp-like Geadow-lisp.
  This is pronounced as "Ghe-Doh", which means 'going off the way man should keep
  on' in Japanese. Please note there is no relation with Meadow, an Emacs-clone on
  Windows platform.

  There are 2 major motivations for this development:
  - Clarify how powerful GTK+2 is in the Emacs world.
  - Fully internationalizing Emacs menus/messages needs rather bigger/longer
    efforts than the normal GTK+/GNOME apps. That doesn't use gettext, its
    messages are hard-coded in lisp codes, toolkit is legacy.

Requirements
------------
GNOME2
and some warm hearts.
