Ed(1) has had one more minor improvement added:  when the slash (or
whatever) that ends a pattern is the last thing on a command line, it
can be left out.  Note that this does *not* apply to the slash that
ends an 's' command.

Unless some nasty bug turns up, this probably marks the end of ed work
except for possible changes for compatibility with future versions of
the crash-recovery mechanism.  The work of the last month or so has
fixed all (known) readily-fixed bugs.
