32 | <para><application>Ed</application> is a line-oriented text editor. It
|

33 | is used to create, display, modify and otherwise manipulate text files,

34 | both interactively and via shell scripts. Ed isn't something which many
|

35 | people use. It's described here because it can be used by the patch

36 | program if you encounter an ed-based patch file. This happens rarely
|

37 | because diff-based patches are preferred these days.</para>
