[comp.sys.ibm.pc] ED for MS-DOS

dd26+@andrew.cmu.edu (Douglas F. DeJulio) (01/23/89)

Has anyone got ED for MS-DOS?  I've gotten used to it a little on
UNIX, and I really don't like EDLIN very much.

A clone of ed was posted to one of the groups several months ago.  I could
probably dig it up from my archives.  Better yet, I would suggest you
get the MKS Toolkit.  It gives you ed, ex, vi, and lots of other goodies.

I cannot think of any other software purchase that gives you more for the
money.  With it the Massively Stupid, Decrepit Operating System is almost
usable.
