>> Perhaps this should also include at least a sentence or two >> explaining why ed is considered disqualified? > ? Because when I saw that, my reaction was "um, but we've got one - ed". I've been using ed for over 30 years (mostly emacs now), but I would have to agree it's very intimidating for newbies. I was first very skeptical about ee in base, but if it in practice is usable by people who don't know how to use it, that's a strong point in its favor. I also wonder about using pksrc to install more such software, but the setting up wireless config files etc. is a reasonable argument. So even though I'm a traditionalist, I am not against ee in base.
