I gather EINE was a somewhat short lived affair in the early days of
CADR development, and few people would have seen it.  I see files for an
unnamed editor going back to early 1977.  The name EINE officially
appeared August that year.  I previouly never looked into it, but now
that I check it seems the ZWEI project was started late 1978.  This is
from a November 1978 message by Weinreb:

  "ZWEI is the second version of EINE, of course.  It stands for Zwei
  Was Eine Initially.  It is a complete rewrite for about six reasons
  which I will type in one of these days.  It wan't announced in mail
  because everyone here heard about it by word of mouth.
