Hi Bjoern,

infinite substitution loop

Thanks for reporting this.

GNU ed has always behaved like this for non-empty replacements of empty matches, but it could be more clever and notice that /^/ can only match once in a line and ignore the 'g' suffix.

I'll fix this as soon as possible.


Best regards,
Antonio.
