Hey, I've discovered this incredible new development environment!

It consists of a conversational "window", called a "shell", and a set of windows for editing, called "editors" (or `ed` for short). The windows might be rendered as separate boxes on screen, or switch in a single screen with `screen`.

When you have your source ed-ited, you `make` it into a program!

You don't have to fight with V, X, Y, or Zcode! You just manage your files in the same conversational shell!

Advanced Programming in the Unix Environment

Tool Tip: ed(1) is the standard text editor

As part of our discussion of unix development tools, we take a short detour to provide a quick walkthrough of ed(1), the standard text editor. This is not done merely to up your geek creds, but understanding ed(1) will also helps us better understand other tools like vi(1), sed(1), and ultimately even things like diff(1) and patch(1) better.

Y'all, I created an #ed(1) monster:

!echo "HELLO" > hello.txt
E hello.txt
p
s/.*/p\
s|.*|p\\\
s;.*;p\\\\\\\
Q\\\\\\\
;\\\
,w !ed %\\\
Q\\\
|\
,w !ed %\
Q\
/
,w !ed %
Q

It's a script that
- Prints contents of a file, then
- Rewrites them to a script that
- Prints contents of a file, and then
- Rewrites them to a scripts that
- Prints contents of a file, and then
- Rewrites them to a script that
- Prints the contents of a file
- And then exits.

And who said that metaprogramming is not possible outside #Lisp? (No one, actually.)

Ne pas censurer Lecornu : le PS assume son « pari » hasardeux

Après l’annonce de la suspension de la réforme des retraites, les troupes d’Olivier Faure se targuent d’avoir remporté une « victoire politique ». Quoi qu’en disent les socialistes, celle-ci n’efface pas un budget complaisant avec les ultrariches et une fracture indélébile à gauche. › https://www.mediapart.fr/journal/politique/141025/ne-pas-censurer-lecornu-le-ps-assume-son-pari-hasardeux?at_format=link&at_account=mediapart&at_campaign=mastodon&at_medium=custom7

@mediapart

Y a ni "pari" ni "hasard", ils plongent juste dans l' #ED (et c'est pas moi qui irais les repêcher. Qu'ils coulent avec leur fascisme).

Right! I forgot! I just published a new #blogpost, "Line-based #Lisp Editing"! It's about my desperation for an #ed(1)-editable Lisp and the ways I cope with this gloom.

Ca me trotte dans la tête, je n'en parle pas, peur de faire trop dans le drama, mais... Ce qui me plombe aussi dans le boulot, c'est que je m'interroge très fort, viscéralement, sur ce que je ferai si il y a un gvt ouvertement d'extrême droite. Que fait-on qd on travaille pour l'Etat et que cet Etat est d' #ED ? Reste-t-on pour préserver ce qu'on peut ? Se barre-t-on parce qu'on ne veut pas collaborer ?
Est-ce que des gens ici partagent cette réflexion avec moi ?

If you like #ed, #toot may be for you. It's a #CLI Mastodon client. It's #TUI supports rendering images in various ways, e.g. when using #WezTerm toot tui -f iterm looks like this:

Small but mighty news for UNIX fans:
GNU ed 1.22 is out! Now you can filter specific line ranges through shell commands directly in ed, ex(1)-style:

1,10!sort
Just like in ex or sed, this filters addressed lines through your favorite shell tools a great upgrade for scripting and editing workflows.

Even better: Today’s batch of Slackware -current updates already includes ed 1.22. If you’re running -current and up to date, you already have the new version!

Recently started learning #morsecode , although it's completely useless to me. Sometimes it helps to understand why things developed like they did when you go back in time, when remote communication started. And I love having a #lowtech fallbacks.

It's like learning #ed in order to understand concepts of #vim.

Update. "National Science Foundation Terminates Hundreds of Active Research Awards"
https://www.nytimes.com/2025/04/22/science/trump-national-science-foundation-grants.html

"In January, the #Trump administration attempted to freeze grant payments for existing awards at the #NSF. A temporary restraining order lifted the freeze. The order also said that the agency could not terminate active awards to comply with President Trump’s executive orders…In a statement on Friday, the NSF said that its grant cancellations were not in violation of the temporary restraining order. When asked by The Times to provide clarification on the legality of the grant cancellations, the agency declined to comment…On Friday, the NSF went further, canceling grants supporting ongoing research."

Update. "The federal Department of Education [ #ED] maintains an open access database of more than 2 million documents [Education Resources Information Center, #ERIC] dating back to the 1960s. It will cease operating Wednesday due to #DOGE cuts."

PS: I use many sources in my attempt to stay on top of what's happening with #OpenAccess, #OpenScience, #OpenEducation, and so on. ERIC has been one of the stalwarts.
