  1. After having to embarrass myself earlier by asking one of our robot overlords to help me drive ed(1) I have ordered a copy of @mwl's book. Yes, the one he released as an . Have now read the version and ... it contains just what I needed and what CoPilot helped me with. I therefore recommend that you all buy it.

  2. #drawterm'ing into my #9front cpu server in text mode using my #eink tablet, editing text with only #ed. Does this count as a non-glass paper #terminal? 🤔

  3. BTW:
    `vi(1)` also has an __"ex-mode"__ which is sort of a builtin `ed(1)`.

    I study and practice `ed(1)` to be hip, to learn `vi(1)`'s `ex` and __REGEX__-es.

    Learning `ed(1)` is like learning Latin/Old Greek because it's ancient and "used everywhere" - both availability (even when all else fails) and that it's influence can be felt "everywhere".
    Another bonus will be the ability to run `edbrowse(1)` efficiently!
    @mwlucas has a great book called "ED MASTERY".
