|    We believe that one or more of the following statements are adequate
| descriptions:
| 
|      Viper Is a Package for Emacs Rebels;
|      it is a VI Plan for Emacs Rescue
|      and/or a venomous VI PERil.
| 
|    Technically speaking, Viper is a Vi emulation package for Emacs.  It
| implements all Vi and Ex commands, occasionally improving on them and
| adding many new features.  It gives the user the best of both worlds: Vi
| keystrokes for editing combined with the power of the Emacs environment.
