I am pleased to announce the release of GNU ed 1.7.
GNU ed is an 8-bit clean, more or less POSIX-compliant implementation of
the standard Unix line editor.
The homepage is at http://www.gnu.org/software/ed/ed.html
The sources can be downloaded from http://ftpmirror.gnu.org/ed/
http://download.savannah.gnu.org/releases/ed/ or from your favorite GNU
mirror.
The md5sums are:
0aa4e2428e325203d0d7c3e86c961b1c ed-1.7.tar.gz
16f2c58b1f3d283dcdcdc510642dbf91 ed-1.7.tar.lz
This release is also GPG signed. You can download the signature by
appending ".sig" to the URL.
Changes in version 1.7:
* Show the "Try 'ed --help' for more information." message if a bad
option is given in the command line.
* Quote characters in messages have been changed as advised by GNU
Coding Standards.
* The description of address offsets in the manual and a link to the
Bash manual have been fixed.
* Configure option "--datadir" has been renamed to "--datarootdir" to
follow GNU Standards.
* The target "install-bin" has been added to the Makefile.
Please send bug reports and suggestions to bug...@gnu.org
This version is also available in lzip format. If your distro doesn't
yet distribute the lzip program, you can download it from
http://www.nongnu.org/lzip/lzip.html
If you are packaging ed for a distribution, please, try to use the
lzipped source tarball, as this can improve the support for the lzip
format in packaging systems. Thanks.
Regards,
Antonio Diaz, GNU ed maintainer.
