Would it be worth pointing out that this is one feature that makes edbrowse incompatible with ed? I think there might be a couple of others, but I don't recall which ones off the top of my head. In any case, edbrowse isn't a drop-in replacement for ed, as I've found on a couple of occasions, and perhaps that's worth a mention. -- Chris
