Install codeslayer 4.3.0-1 in Linux Ubuntu, Mint and Debian Derivative System

CodeSlayer is a text editor that boasts a clean interface but powerful features. It is written in C using the GTK+ toolkit. At the heart it is a simple text editor that can then be extended to be as full feature a tool as desired. What makes CodeSlayer different is an (optional) projects view in the side pane and the ability to have multiple configurations through what I call profiles. It can also be used as your go-to tool for dealing with regular expressions (>= 4.1.0). 

CodeSlayer 4.2.1 is out! When working with regular expressions it was not very user friendly to lose your results by accidentally hitting the up or down arrow key so I just disabled them in the find and replace text fields.

The latest version available is CodeSlayer 4.3.1, which has been released a while ago, coming with the below changes:

• File search plugin integrated into the core project. This allows you to search for files easily when working with projects. You can activate it from the Search menu (Search For Document), or use the shortcut key Ctrl+K.
• Fixed two major bugs that were symptoms of the same problem. If you experienced any lockups when adding and/or removing projects multiple times within the same session it is now fixed.
