These are due to "ed" missing in your environment. Is there a
similar tool that exists for Windows that could be used to automate
``interactive'' edits to a file? This exercises Fossil's ability to fork
a process defined in the EDITOR variable that edits a file, and then
save the result as a comment on a commit.
Aha. That makes sense, while I've got lots of random classic Unix tools
laying around on my Windows PC (usually via builds from GnuWin32) it
looks like I have sed but not ed. One easy answer for me is likely to
just go get a ported ed and try that, which will probably just work.
Possibly a better answer would be to replace the use of ed with
something private to the test suite and eliminate a dependency on an
external tool. If EDITOR can contain a complex command line, which it
should since "ed -s" is allowed, perhaps a portable way out is to set
EDITOR to "tclsh edlike.tcl" and provide just enough functionality there
for the tests, which could be tweaked to suit.
