== Overview== Acme can be used as a [[mail reader|mail]] and [[News client|news reader]], or as a frontend to [[wikifs]]. These applications are made possible by external components interacting with acme through its file system interface. Rob Pike has mentioned that the name "Acme" was suggested to him by [[Penn Jillette]] of [[Penn & Teller]] during a movie night at [[Times Square]] when he asked for a suitable name for a text editor that does "everything".<ref>{{cite web | url = http://acme.cat-v.org/faq | title = Acme FAQ | access-date = 2013-01-25 | publisher = cat-v}}</ref>
