For example, I expected "cal -m | ed -" to edit the output of the "cal" command.

Using commands read from where?

From the keyboard, of course.

And where would the output of the "w" command go?

I expected ed to ask for a filename, as other editors do.

Certainly ed is a strange editor for today's computer users. :)
