Summary

Alpine -- an Alternatively Licensed Program for Internet

News & Email -- is a tool for reading, sending, and managing

electronic messages. Alpine is the successor to Pine and was

developed by Computing & Communications at the University of

Though originally designed for inexperienced email users,

Alpine supports many advanced features, and an ever-growing number of

configuration and personal-preference options.

Changes and enhancements over pine:

* Released under the Apache Software License, Version 2.0.

* Internationalization built around new internal Unicode support.

* Ground-up reorganization of source code around new "pith/" core

routine library.

* Ground-up reorganization of build and install procedure based on

GNU Build System's autotools.
