### Historique du projet

The README identifies dex as the Dextrous text editor and includes a 2010 copyright notice for Timo Hirvonen.

### Historique d'adoption

The input package facts show broad packaging across Homebrew, Nix, Debian, Ubuntu, Arch, Alpine, and openSUSE-style package managers.

### Modes d'utilisation

### Pourquoi les passionnés de paquets s'y intéressent
