+<title>The Editor</title>
+
+<para>
+The editor is based on &designer;, a tool for designing and implementing user interfaces created by <ulink url="http://www.trolltech.com">Trolltech</ulink>.  We have modified &designer; in the following ways:
+</para>
+<itemizedlist>
+<listitem><para>Its interface is much simpler</para></listitem>
+<listitem><para>Built in our own widgets</para></listitem>
+<listitem><para>Added the ability to setup &kommander; Text</para></listitem>
+<listitem><para>Various other superficial changes</para></listitem>
+</itemizedlist>
+<para>
+For those of you already familiar with using &designer;, using the &kmdr-editor; will be trivial.
