Not really about internationalization, so I'll make it a separate email:

Whenever you quit Edlin, you always get this prompt:

> *q
> Abort edit (Y/n)? y

I always find it a little concerning when I've already saved my file
and Edlin asks if I want to "abort" my edit. It always makes me answer
"n" and then write the file with "w" anyway before I use "q" again to
quit. You get the same message with "e" ("end" : write and quit) which
also makes me feel weird, which is why I prefer "w" then "q" to write
then quit with individual steps so I know it's been saved.

So this one is really a suggestion: can we not display "Abort edit
(Y/n)?" if the file has been saved and no changes made? Or if that
"change detection" would be too much to add, then maybe don't display
that message with "e" because the program is supposed to write before
quitting anyway.
