+    longDescription = ''
+      GNU ed is a line-oriented text editor.  It is used to create,
+      display, modify and otherwise manipulate text files, both
+      interactively and via shell scripts.  A restricted version of ed,
+      red, can only edit files in the current directory and cannot
+      execute shell commands.  Ed is the "standard" text editor in the
+      sense that it is the original editor for Unix, and thus widely
+      available.  For most purposes, however, it is superseded by
+      full-screen editors such as GNU Emacs or GNU Moe.
