The N4SA2e Defenestrated Edition broke another stretch goal! Four days remain, then this book disappears forever.https://mwl.io/ks

@mwl The funny thing about ed... I've used it, in a real situation.I had an HP-UX machine in the early 2000's boot with just the root dir mounted... someone screwed up a config and it was failing to mount /usr, and that's where vi lived. I had to edit config files in an environment without a "visual" editor, and ed was the tool I used.HP-UX decisions about where to keep things (/ was root's home dir!) always baffled me.

@mwl Will you be covering Banyan Vines instead? Or, if you're a wuss, Novell NetWare?
