    “Ed”, a.k.a. “edline” is a really old line by line editor in Unix.

        I chose to respond to the most likely meaning as it’s also the response with the greatest utility value for the average person coming across this thread.

        Responding to it as an “ed” prompt is pretty useless in this context.

            It’s been many years since I was so young that this was all it took to reach the level of hilarity.
