desc: "Gate is text-gatherer. A text-gatherer is like a text-editor, but much\nmore
  lightweight and unobtrusive. \n\nIf you have a program or shell script that asks
  people to enter a small\nchunk of text, a text-gatherer like Gate is a good way
  to do it. It\ndoesn't clear the screen (annoying if there were just some instructions\nprinted
  there). It doesn't require you to know a lot of obscure editing\ncommands. It doesn't
  make excessive demands on the intelligence of your\nterminal emulation software.
  \n\nIt does provide a number of features that make it easier for novice users\nto
  produce good text. It does word-wrap, prints a prompt on each new line,\nand allows
  backspacing from the currently line onto previous lines. It\nalso provides features
  that a more experienced user can use. You can call\nup normal editor, or use some
  of gate's simple-minded editing\ncommands. You can read in files, or save your text
  to a file. You can\nfilter your text through something like the unix \"fmt\" command.
  It\nprovides a nice spell-checking interface too. \n\nWWW: http://www.unixpapa.com/gate.html\n"
