Like UNIX's or CP/M's Ed, or DOS's Edlin? Thank goodness no, well certainly I don't. In fact, I've not seen anyone I know in IT using a line editor for years.

Thank goodness no, well certainly I don't. In fact, I've not seen anyone I know in IT using a line editor for years. Presumably those who use FreeDOS etc. still do.
Even in the days when there was nothing else to use I always hated them especially especially so CP/M's Ed. Moreover, its typewriter-like manual (which I likely still have somewhere), was horrible. But unlike much software these days, at least Ed had a manual!
