       | granular so as to allow searches on such attributes as open
       | source (or not!), LOC, platform, language, program type, subtype,
       | etc., etc. AlternativeTo has some of this, GitHub has some of
       | this, Wikipedia lists have some of this, and of course, this
       | website has some of this -- but for Text Editors only... anyway,
       | just thinking aloud!  <g> :-) <g>)
