DESCRIPTION

       ne  is  a  free  text editor that runs on (hopefully almost) any UN*X machine.  ne is easy to use for the
       beginner, but powerful and fully configurable for the wizard, and most sparing in its resource usage.

       This documentation is incomplete.  The Texinfo/info/HTML/PDF documentation is  the  authoritative  source
       (try info ne or info -f ne).
