You might like se[1]. It's a screen-oriented version of ed. It can be helpful for certain editing tasks where visual feedback is wanted. Unrelated to ed, but for those who use emacs, I find mg[2] to be a productive, medium-weight editor (~15k LOC). I use the one that comes with OpenBSD. 1: https://github.com/screen-editor/se/
