Simple to use text editor

Gobby offers you several tools for text editing, in order for you to create the desired documents. Aside from the standard Copy Cut Paste options, the software allows you to find and replace words or characters, as well as undo or redo most recent modifications. You can easily type in a new document or import a pre-existing one and make changes. You can easily export the current state of the document to HTML.
Advanced text editing functions, such as applying one of several input methods or insert Unicode Control Character can be accessed from the context menu. The Input methods refer to the supported alphabets or syntax and include Amharic, Cyrillic, Tigrigna-Ethiopian, Vietnamese, Windows IME. By default, the software applies no input method.

Teamwork in text editing

The application comes with an integrated server, meaning you do not need extra hardware or software settings, except install Gobby on each required computer. You may set access restrictions, by password protection, self-signed certificate or by using an existing private key and certificate.
Any of the authorised users can access the documents and make modifications. Once they save the document, the changes are automatically applied for the other team members. The software is divided into three areas: the one on the left displays the document collection and allows you to select any file and open it. The one in the center displays the file content, while the one on the right contains the currently active/connected stations.

Gobby is simple to use and allows you to edit text files, along with other team members, in real time. All modifications are automatically synchronized, meaning you and the rest of your team can view the same content at once.
