Reading this document, or other documentation on this software, or the sources, you may find it is sometimes called JERED or JE. In fact the first version was called JE which meant Jerome's Editor, but because of a name space conflict between this program and the Japanese Extensions for Linux I decided to rename it JERED, which means JErome's Renamed EDitor.

This software couldn't be what it is without the very important help of the following people:
Joe L. Hartmann Jr. - joeh@sugar-river.net Who is the main ideas provider and rewrote the first english doc.
Antti K. Barck - proff@iki.fi Who added the GNU compliant build tree, the Finnish support, and a lot of code.
Vladimir Vigdorovich - vigd0002@gold.tc.umn.edu Who added the Russian support (you need the KOI-8 font)
This document was written with the linuxdoc-sgml package, it is normally available in three formats with the software: sgml source, html, and GNU info.
