I have CED and it has a great command line editer, as well as a nifty
history mechansim.  I accidentally hit CONTRL-T and it printed out some
diagnostics about "alias" space or "synoynm" spcae.  I gather that this
means one can make synonyms for it.  How?  If anyone has the docs could
they mail them to me?  I have ARC 4.1 if that helps any.  As you can tell
I did not get CED first hand, but found it on a hard disk in a lab.  I 
assume it is public domain; if not let me know...
   ***BUG REPORT***  In the version of CED I have, never, ever, ever,
press the CONTROL-N key.  On my system (Sperry-IT) this completely
locks up the entire computer.  TANSTAAFL :-(  ..aint no free lunch...
