GNU ed is an 8-bit clean, more or less POSIX-compliant implementation of 
the standard Unix line editor.

The homepage is at http://www.gnu.org/software/ed/ed.html


Changes in this version:

  * The substitute command no longer complains about an 'Infinite 
substitution loop' with a substitution like 's/^/#/g'. (Reported by 
Bjoern Wibben).

  * It has been documented in the manual that extended regular 
expression operators may be unavailable depending on the particular 
regex implementation in the system running ed. (Reported by Brian Zwahr).

Antonio Diaz, GNU ed maintainer.
