NEdit is a GUI (Graphical User Interface) style text editor for
programs and plain-text files.  Users of Macintosh and MS Windows
based text editors will find NEdit a familiar and comfortable
environment.  NEdit provides all of the standard menu, dialog,
editing, and mouse support, as well as all of the standard shortcuts
to which the users of modern GUI based environments are accustomed.
For users of older style Unix editors, welcome to the world of
mouse-based editing!

This port requires Motif to build, however it works reasonably well
with the free Motif clone LessTif.

A fancy-looking editor that's smaller than emacs (surprise!). Note this port requires Motif, and is patched to build with libXm static (to change this, just go hack in patches/patch-aa, it's only two lines). Some time later, I will make some changes to the ports framework to make this configurable, but for now, it's "the way thud wants it". :> Submitted by: "Daniel M.

Another batch of add homepage. In general I've avoided any links except to official homepages, but in this batch there were a few cases where a link was desireable anyways. For these, the form http://url/ (FAQ/whatever) was used. 1998-07-28 06:34:42 +00:00
Nedit has a new home, www.nedit.org, provided by Metrolink. The old www site has gone by-by. Fix DESCR for the new site. Found by: Fenner's ports survey 1999-11-08 12:06:32 +00:00			`WWW: http://www.nedit.org`
