    ed is sadly not installed by default on some modern distros. Even vi is often a symlink to vim in vi-mode.

      Really? Not that I’d notice, but I assumed ed was so tiny that there wouldn’t be any reason to not include it. (Ubuntu has it and it’s 59KB)

      Asking for vi and getting vim is just a pleasant surprise :)
