It's a file (aptly called 'core', sometimes 'core.$PID') created by
the OS if a process crashes. The file contains information about the
process the moment it crashed and can help in debugging. This is also
called 'throwing a core' or 'core dump'.

The file is not always created for various reasons. If it is not,
please send the result of 'ulimit -a'.

NEdit shouldn't crash at all, so unless some program mucked up NEdit's
address space (highly unlikely) it's definitely a bug in NEdit.
