Request: simple line editor for g4d #29

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 9 years ago

What steps will reproduce the problem?
It would be very handy to be able to edit lines, something like the old linedit 
program

linedit /fred.tx
l10-20 = list lines 10-20
e10 - displays line 10 and then allows you to enter a line to replace it - pess 
ESC to abort line edit or ENTER to make change
x - edit with prompt to save or cancel

if op file is longer than original file warn user what characters will not be 
saved - user can accept or cancel.

(files can have extra lines of padding at end to allow for this)

e.g.
load file into memory
edit in memory
to save use dd

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?

Please provide any additional information below.
