 # kpad
- kake pad gambas version
+
+Kake Pad Gambas version
+
+This program is a translation from the perl version of kake pad originally located at https://sourceforge.net/projects/kpad/ also written by me.
+Based on some very old perl code, version 5.2.1. This is not a one for one copy as this conversion both has improvements and 
+lacks one or two features from my original at this moment. I've also decieded to this version should be under a different license, the MIT license. This is what will be actively developed going forward. 
+
+# This program requires: 
+
+Gambas 3.14.3
+
+# And these Gambas componets

+
+# Why Gambas? 
+
+I truely love Perl, but I wanted to revisit Gambas. Mainly, for the challenge of doing the conversion to see how easy it was and how hard it would be. Gambas is a Basic dialect and I've always had a soft spot for Basic. I also wanted to have the chance to fully test Gambas, its IDE and it's capabilities and this has allowed me to do this.
+
+# Progress so far
+
+Progress has been great and most of this was written inside two days from scratch. I had a few hiccups here and there to work around as Gambas while not a bad langauge either lacked some documentation or features. With a little research and presistence I've been able to work through all of it. 
+
+# TODO
+
+Implement the plugin system, mainly. Also a good find and replace function. Also expand on the capabilities of the componets involved.
