Ed

The text editor ed was the original standard on the Unix operating system. It was influenced by an earlier editor known as QED (text editor), and went on to influence Ex (editor), which in turn spawned vi. The non-interactive UNIX commands grep and sed were inspired by common special uses of ed; their influence is visible in the design of the programming language AWK, which in turn inspired aspects of Perl programming language. Famous for its terseness, ed has almost no visual feedback. For example, the message that ed will produce in case of error, or when it wants to make sure you want to quit without saving, is "?". It does not report the current filename or line number, or even display the results of a change to the text, unless requested. This terseness was appropriate in the early versions of UNIX, when consoles were teletypes, modems were slow, and hard disk and random Access Memory were precious, but these advantages ceased to apply when more interactive editors became the standards. In current practice ed is rarely used interactively, but it does find use in some shell scripts. For interactive use, ed was subsumed by sam (program), vi and Emacs editors in the 1980s. ed can be found on virtually every version of UNIX and Linux available; people who have to work with multiple versions of UNIX often know at least the basic ed commands. If something goes wrong, and the OS is somehow not fully loaded, ed is sometimes the only editor available. This is often the only time when it is used interactively, aside maybe from torturing first year students. The ed commands are often imitated in other line-based editors. For example, edlin in early MS-DOS versions had somewhat similar syntax, and text editors in many MUDs (LPMud and descendants, for example) use ed-like syntax. These editors, however, are typically more limited in function. ==Example session== Here is an example transcript of an ed session: a ed is the standard UNIX text editor. This is line number two. . 2i . 1,$l ed is the standard UNIX text editor.$ $ This is line number two.$ 3s/two/three/ 1,$l ed is the standard UNIX text editor.$ $ This is line number three.$ w text 65 q == Explanation of the example == Here we started with an empty file, and used ''a'' to append text (all ed commands are single letters). That put us into ''insert mode'', which is terminated by a singular dot on a line. The two lines that we entered before the dot end up in the file buffer. ''2i'' goes into insert mode, and will insert the entered text (a single empty line in our case) before line two. All commands may be prefixed by a line number and will operate on that line. In ''1,$l'' the l stands for the list command. This time we prefixed the command by a range, two lines separated by a comma ($ means the last line). In return, ed is listing all lines, from first to last. These lines are ended with dollar signs, so that white space at the end of lines is clearly visible. We will correct the error in line 3 with ''3s/two/three/'', a substitution command. The 3 will apply it to the right line, following the command is the text to be replaced, and then the replacement. Listing all lines again with ''1,$l'' we see that the line is correct now. ''w text'' writes the buffer to the file "text". ed responds with ''65'', which is the number of characters that it wrote to the file. ''q'' will end our ed session. ==External links== *[http://www.gnu.org/software/ed/ed.html GNU ed homepage] *[http://snap.nlc.dcccd.edu/learn/nlc/ed.html UNIX Editors I] *[http://www.gnu.org/fun/jokes/ed.msg.html ed Humor] Linux text editors Mac OS text editors Unix programs

Example: in Template:Train topics provides a link "Edit this box" in e.g. Train, in small letters. ==Cross-language portability== I tried to replace "Template" with , which by itself gives , but it did not work. Apparently localurl does not allow a variable in its first parameter, although it allows another parameter in it. Therefore, in an other language, translate both Template and Edit (the 2nd only).--User:Patrick 23:25, 19 Jul 2004 (UTC) ==Edit link on Template:The Beatles== Hey guys- I think that the "edit" link on this template is non-standard, is unnecessary, and frankly looks kinda weird, but a previous author wants to keep it. How can this be resolved? Is this edit link at all standard? If so, it should be placed on all of the other links at Wikipedia:Template_messages. - User:DropDeadGorgias User_talk:DropDeadGorgias 14:23, Jul 19, 2004 (UTC) :I am in favor of an edit link on many or perhaps even all templates. The whole principle of a wiki is that you can edit the page; this should include the template part. It is more convenient this way, and otherwise newbies would not even know how to do it. ::On a very small one like , giving ā, it is perhaps not practicle: if unlabeled, like , it would be confused with a link to a page that explains the character. Besides, it puts too much emphasis on it, and may underline it.--User:Patrick 12:01, 20 Jul 2004 (UTC) :::''The template in question is now deprecated. --User:Aponar Kestrel User_talk:Aponar Kestrel 20:24, 2004 Sep 5 (UTC)'' :However, I would put it at the bottom right, that seems more standard.--User:Patrick 23:03, 19 Jul 2004 (UTC) ==This template and printing pages== I consider this template quite handy to make it easier to allow modification of an included template. Yet the ugly part is when the article is printed, as then this link gets expanded to the full URL (which is correct for normal external links). Is there any stylesheet magic which can hide this template in printed articles? User:Ahoerstemeier 08:16, 13 Aug 2004 (UTC) :I added :@media print { .editlink { display: none } } :to MediaWiki:Monobook.css, that seems to work. For other skins one can do the same (see m:help:user style for the file names).--User:Patrick 11:36, 13 Aug 2004 (UTC) == Sorry about that change... == I thought I was editing it on my own wiki, which I had up in a different tab. My bad. :( - Lendrick
