Ed (Toolkit II) is a great editor but in coming back to the QL I would
have thought someone would have come up with a couple of useful tweaks
by now.
Such as the ability to copy and paste within the editing window and
using the mouse to put the cursor just where I want it, instead of
several arrow direction taps to get there.
Any ideas?

I guess no one enhanced Ed any further, as people moved onto using tools
such as Digital Precision's The Editor, or the even better QD editor
from Jochen Merz if they wanted to be able to do this sort of thing.
Yep, that's just about right. I find myself rarely using ed nowadays,
even for plain SBASIC programming. QD2 with its feature to remove and add
line numbers on the fly makes editing (and properly formatting) programs
much easier.
I use ED only for small corrections/amendments when actually compiling.

I suppose the other thing to mention are the tools which were developed to
make writing SuperBASIC much easier even with just the basic ED command:
- QREF by Liberation Software which allows you to find all references to a
given command / string / function / procedure
- MasterBASIC by Ergon Development which analysed the program much more
than QREF - you could even search for tokens! and much more
Hi Rich,
MasterBASIC is good, which I re-discover when I remember to use it.
It would be nice to have an updated version of this at some time, too.
