I was using duhdraw, and since there was no package of it available, I
have decided to package. Duh Draw is a text mode only editor. It uses
ncurses.

When searching for a graphical ANSI editor, I found wmansied. It uses QT
libraries. Since some people don't like text mode utilities, I thought
that would be good to package it too.

If you think that only one is necessary, let me know, please.

Thank you
Nelson
