I was under the impression that the consensus was to stick with "nedit" 
rather than change to "NEdit". The OP was looking for a (familiar) 
package called "nedit", which is another good reason for sticking with 
that name.

Basil: if you want nedit quickly for FC4, I'd suggest downloading the 
FC3 package and then using "yum localinstall nedit-whatever.rpm" to 
install it. That should pull in any compatibility libraries that may be 
needed.
