For the record, the version of ed(1) distributed with Mac OS X is essentially 
the same as the *BSD version.  It is POSIX compliant, but not fully SUSv3 
compliant.  It is standard ed and works fine.

Last I checked, the current GNU version of ed(1)  was critically broken.

(Disclaimer:  I wrote the Mac and the original GNU versions.  The SUSv3 
compliant version that I offered to GNU was rejected.)
