I am pleased to announce the release of GNU ed 1.6.

GNU ed is an 8-bit clean, more or less POSIX-compliant implementation of 
the standard Unix line editor.

The homepage is at http://www.gnu.org/software/ed/ed.html

The sources can be downloaded from http://ftpmirror.gnu.org/ed/ 
http://download.savannah.gnu.org/releases/ed/ or from your favorite GNU 
mirror.

This version is also available in lzip format. If your distro doesn't 
yet distribute the lzip program, you can download it from 
http://www.nongnu.org/lzip/lzip.html

The md5sums are:
9a78593decccaa889523aa4bb555ed4b  ed-1.6.tar.gz
e3d4dcfd260b2ebb2855c86ffca1947f  ed-1.6.tar.lz

This release is also GPG signed. You can download the signature by 
appending ".sig" to the URL.

Changes in version 1.6:

   * Displaying of null characters by the "l" command has been fixed.

   * The condition deciding when to show the message "Newline appended" 
has been corrected.

   * The "modified" flag is now set when reading a non-empty file into 
an empty buffer.

   * An error that prevented using NUL characters in regular expressions 
has been fixed.

   * Ed now signals an error if it can't create a shell process when 
executing a shell command.

   * Ed now flushes stdout/stderr before reading a new command.

   * Man page is now generated with "help2man". All command-line options 
are now documented in the man page.

   * The copyright notices of Andrew L. Moore have been restored. It 
seems Andrew granted some permissions but never assigned copyright to 
the FSF.


Please send bug reports and suggestions to bug-ed@gnu.org

If you are packaging ed for a distribution, please, try to use the 
lzipped source tarball, as this can improve the support for the lzip 
format in packaging systems. Thanks.


Regards,
Antonio Diaz, GNU ed maintainer.
