# Ex.Co.
### Descripton: ###
Ex.Co. (Extensible Coder) is a GUI text editor written in Python that uses PyQt/QScintilla libraries with some lexers available in Cython for more efficient text highlighting.
I developed it with simplicity of use and extensibility in mind.
For precompiled bundles for Windows see the releases page (https://github.com/matkuki/ExCo/releases/latest).
