+* Cross platform: Builds on a wide variety of platforms. While being focused on UNIX
+  and drawing some inspiration from it, other platforms (esp. Windows) are fully
+  supported. It is made sure that SciTECO integrates well into all supported
+  platforms even without an UNIX-like environment.
+* SciTECO is console and command-line friendly.
+  Besides running under Curses and being a scripting language, it is written
+  to be used interactively on system terminals, can be integrated into
+  UNIX pipelines and can be extended with external command-line tools
+  (see `EC` command).
+* Themeability and consistency: Color settings (or schemes) are applied consistenly
+  across all supported platforms. Gtk+ builds allow further customization using CSS.
+  The user interface is kept minimalistic and is consistent in spirit across the
+  different platforms.
