Pine

   Pine is a user-agent for reading, sending, and managing
   electronic messages. It was originally developed at the
   University of Washington with novice users in mind, but can be
   tailored to accommodate the needs of more experienced users. The
   UNIX, DOS, and Windows versions are maintained by the Computing &
   Communications group at the University of Washington and can be
   obtained from ftp.cac.washington.edu via anonymous FTP. A mailing
   list for Pine is maintained as pine-info@cac.washington.edu;
   however, bugs found in the PMDF version of Pine should be
   reported to support@process.com.

   Pine has a full-screen interface which uses one-character
   mnemonic commands and control sequences for its command input.
   You do not have to hit the RETURN or ENTER key to finish a
   command. A command menu is always present at the bottom of the
   screen, and help is only one keystroke away. It is intended that
   Pine can be learned by exploration and the browsing of extensive,
   context-sensitive on-line help provided within Pine, but some
   basic concepts to get a new user started are discussed below.
