First the flames:
1)  I LIKED ed.  I thought it worked just fine.  At least the commands were
    easier to remember.  Even though I now use vi for most of my editing,
    I still use ed for things like global substitutions.
2)  What's wrong with designing things for novices?  How 'bout designing it
    so that you could choose the level of drivel you wanted.  That way,
    everyone would be happy.
Second, a question:
    There is a cure for computer phobia.  It is called netnews.  Has anybody
    else used it for this purpose?       
                                            UN*X likes me.
