69 Computer Scientists love ed, not just because it comes first
Dave Love <fx@gnu.org>
parents:
diff changeset
70 alphabetically, but because it's the standard. Everyone else loves ed
Dave Love <fx@gnu.org>
parents:
diff changeset
71 because it's ED!

81 Of course, on the system *I* administrate, vi is symlinked to ed.
Dave Love <fx@gnu.org>
parents:

82 Emacs has been replaced by a shell script which 1) Generates a syslog
Dave Love <fx@gnu.org>

83 message at level LOG_EMERG; 2) reduces the user's disk quota by 100K;

135 When IBM, in its ever-present omnipotence, needed to base their

parents:

136 "edlin" on a UNIX standard, did they mimic vi? No. Emacs? Surely
