I am pleased to announce the release of GNU ed 1.22.3.
GNU ed is a line-oriented text editor. It is used to create, display, modify
and otherwise manipulate text files, both interactively and via shell
scripts. A restricted version of ed, red, can only edit files in the current
directory and cannot execute shell commands. Ed is the 'standard' text
editor in the sense that it is the original editor for Unix, and thus widely
available. For most purposes, however, it is superseded by full-screen editors.
The homepage is at http://www.gnu.org/software/ed/ed.html
The sources can be downloaded from http://ftpmirror.gnu.org/ed/
The sha256sum is:

ed-1.22.3.tar.lz
This release is also GPG signed. You can download the signature by appending
'.sig' to the URL. If the 'gpg --verify' command fails because you don't
have the required public key, then run one of these commands to import it:
gpg --recv-keys 8FE99503132D7742
wget http://ftpmirror.gnu.org/gnu-keyring.gpg
Key fingerprint = 1D41 C14B 272A 2219 A739 FA4F 8FE9 9503 132D 7742
Changes in version 1.22.3:
* The change to print the file name escaped when replaced into a shell
command has been reverted. (Reported by Sören Tempel).
* When '--unsafe-names' is not specified, only the control characters \a,
\b, \t, \v, \f, \n, \r, \033, and \177 are now rejected in file names.
* 'make check' now checks file names with non-ASCII characters coded
either in ISO-8859-1 or in UTF-8.
* 'EXIT STATUS' now has its own section in the man page.
Please send bug reports and suggestions to [email protected]

Antonio Diaz, GNU ed maintainer.
