NEdit is a GUI (Graphical User Interface) style plain text editor for workstations with X Windows and Motif. It is written to maximize usability for people who do intensive and continuous editing, but at the same time, it's easy to learn and is also good for more casual use.
For programmers, NEdit provides automatic indent, block indentation adjustment, parenthesis flashing, and UNIX ctags processing

To start NEdit type:
nedit &
after you start NEdit, a separate NEdit window should appear on your screen, with six pull-down menus in the upper left corner, and a Help menu in the upper right corner.

Information on NEdit is on-line, and is also available through the Help pull-down menu within the NEdit program itself.

NEdit is available by anonymous ftp from ftp.fnal.gov in the /pub/nedit directory.
