Why am I downloading and installed ed(1) today?

A: mariadb-dump is generating SQL it cannot run. Also. The files are huge and just need one or two tweaks. vim hangs horribly opening the file because of its size. ed(1) just takes a nice pause when saving it, but is otherwise responsive and _fast_.

I love ed.

(Also. There are a lot of "modern" linux distros that don't install it by default. *glares in BSD user*)
