@amcooper@toot.cat @onepict@chaos.social While I was working on the gentoo ebuild for vim-classic I unexpectedly found myself without another text editor during the switch and briefly used ed(1) - it's surprisingly usable - fortunately I'm used to sed(1) commands.
I could *almost* get by with ed, though I'd miss split screen editing when writing serious code. Have used it a few times since when I've had small sysadmin jobs to do, and it really does 90% of what I want.
