Don't worry. Michele, you can choice between sed or ex
simply by editing some of the first lines in Makefile:
either
EXMODE=SED
or
EXMODE=EX
The path is wired at the beginning of e3.asm
%ifdef EX
%define USE_EX_NO_SED
%define EX_PATH '/usr/bin/ex'
%else
%undef USE_EX_NO_SED
%define SEDPATH '/bin/sed'
%endif
Default is USE_EX_NO_SED with SEDPATH=='/bin/sed'
If you have forgotten how it is compiled: the helptext will tell
what's going on:
:<other cmd> pipe buffer through 'sed'
--------------------------------------------> ^^ would be 'ex' else.
BTW, I've just tested: e3 does also nicely use sed from lineo's BUSYBOX.
At last: Adrian Bunk suggested using gzexe instead of upx compressor,
so in fact next e3 stays inside 8 kilobyte :-)
Cheers,
Albrecht
