I am pleased to announce the release of GNU ed 1.22.1.
GNU ed is a line-oriented text editor. It is used to create, display, modify
and otherwise manipulate text files, both interactively and via shell
scripts. A restricted version of ed, red, can only edit files in the current
directory and cannot execute shell commands. Ed is the 'standard' text
editor in the sense that it is the original editor for Unix, and thus widely
available. For most purposes, however, it is superseded by full-screen editors.
The homepage is at http://www.gnu.org/software/ed/ed.html
The sources can be downloaded from http://ftpmirror.gnu.org/ed/
The sha256sum is:

ed-1.22.1.tar.lz
This release is also GPG signed. You can download the signature by appending
'.sig' to the URL. If the 'gpg --verify' command fails because you don't
have the required public key, then run this command to import it:
gpg --recv-keys 8FE99503132D7742
Key fingerprint = 1D41 C14B 272A 2219 A739 FA4F 8FE9 9503 132D 7742
Changes in version 1.22.1:
* Ed now departs from POSIX and ignores SIGPIPE to prevent commands like
'w !:' or ',!:' from terminating ed. A broken pipe is now detected as any
other write error. (Reported by Sergei Trofimovich).
Please send bug reports and suggestions to bug-ed@gnu.org
Regards,
Antonio Diaz, GNU ed maintainer.
