Like most companies, our techies love email.  (It's much nicer than
being rude to people to their face!)

Like most companies, our executives hate email.  

While Elm is an excellent start, we needed a *really* simple text
editor to dump them into.  "Use vi!"  "What could be simpler than
EMACS?"  Yeah, right.  Even things like Joe were too much.

So STE, the Simple Text Editor, was born.

It was a stated design goal of this program that if you need a man
page, it is a failure.  The bottom line is help.    The keys all try
to do the most obvious thing possible.

It's a single file program, and has been tested and used daily by 
dozens on SCO systems.  It's known to compile and run on almost
anything with a reasonable curses.  (Sun/OS, Solaris, HP/UX, etc.)

Any enhancement you submit will be checked against the primary 
design goal.
	1. Is this a feature a CFO reading/sending mail has to have?

The author of this program is the honorable Gene Olson 
(gene@zeno.mn.org).  He has asked that I make this program 
available to the public and act as coordinator of fixes and 
enhancements.
