pine is a screen-oriented message-handling tool. In its default configuration, pine offers an intentionally limited set of functions geared toward the novice user, but it also has a growing list of options and "power-user" and personal-preference features. pinef is a variant of pine that uses function keys rather than mnemonic single-letter commands. pine's basic feature set includes: View, Save, Export, Delete, Print, Reply, and Forward messages.
