Experimental code editor

#Boson - An experimental editor Boson is a minimalistic experimental source code editor. It's written in Node, and wrapped in Nw.js as a runtime container for easy cross-platform integration.

It utilizes Codemirror in place for it's source view highlighting and editing.

##Keeping things simple Boson aims to give you a minimal core. Further functionality can be added with user level plugins.

##Pre-built binaries We have pre-built binaries for Linux and Windows. OSX users need to clone our repository and manually download nw.js. (It would be great to have a contributer to tackle OSX).

Take note: - this is experimental software.
