E has evolved into EPM, the OS/2 2.0 Enhanced Editor.  While only the
editor ships with OS/2, the macro source, macro compiler, programming
information, and lots of sample code are available separately (for free!).
See the EPMBBS package on the IBM OS/2 BBS's, Compuserve, or via anonymous
FTP from software.watson.IBM.com.  (I believe it's been shadowed on other
anon. FTP sites.)  Questions on EPM are answered in comp.os.os2.programmer.
