    Ah, but have you used ed, the standard editor?

      I have not. But since I learned vi on Linux and Unix, it was using ex as it’s ‘personality’. ed is not something I have dug into.

      Quick search, it appears as though ed is a precursor to sed, which I use all the time. Both of which have a similar context and toolset to ex used in vim.
