My apologies if this is obvious, I don't know anything about ed, and
really don't want to 8-).

Could someone tell me how to write an ed script that will read in a
file, find the line containing a ')', delete all lines which follow,
then append another file to what remains of the first?  I'm afraid it
does have to be ed, it will go on a boot floppy that doesn't have room
for much else.

Please mail it to me, this is unlikely to appeal to anyone else.
