Just uploaded Marave 0.5 to `the usual place <http://marave.googlecode.com>`_. Marave is a relaxed, fullscreen text editor that tries not to distract you. 

It even includes a simple music player just so you don't have to think about switching to another application!

This release has several bugs fixed, and looks a bit nicer.

The main new feature is ... internationalizacion. It now includes a spanish translation only, but if you want to help translating it to any other language, please step forward! 

There are only 60 phrases to translate, so it shouldn't be more than one hour of work.

Here's a screenshot of this release:

Marave is free software under the GPLv2, and should work on any platform where PyQt works, which means Windows, Mac, and Unix-like operating systems, at least.
