There's a convention of starting every script with capital H on a line of its own, to toggle more verbose error messages on. And optionally end the script with capital Q to force-quit without saving the changes to file.

See Also:


Listed below are all of the tasks on Rosetta Code which have been solved using Ed.

This is the command language used by wp:ed_(software), the line oriented text editor.

Implementations are GNU Ed, Plan 9 Ed, BSD ed, and original UNIX ed. Ed is also a precursor to a whole family of other text editors and command languages. Including Sed, ex, vi, vim, sam, and others.

Ed scripts are usually ran as (on the example of GNU Ed)

cat script.ed | ed -lEGs file.in

There's a convention of starting every (GNU ed) script with capital H on a line of its own, to toggle more verbose error messages on. And optionally end the script with capital Q to force-quit without saving the changes to file.
