Description : lightweight .DOC editor

This was included in previous versions of Debian, but removed, *I believe*,
for the reason that it was thought to be unmaintained... The current
version has now switched to using GTK+ and was released five months ago. (
previous version is over seven years )

The only "valid" .DOC editors in Debian are LibreOffice and AbiWord, which
are both somewhat bloated (especially LibreOffice, as it's in Java) ... I
believe Ted is a nice lightweight alternative.
