2 Usage error
The error messages are issued only if h or H subcommands are used after ed
displays ?. Possible error messages include:
Destination cannot straddle source in m and t
The range of lines being moved or copied by m or t cannot include the
destination address.
Global command too long
There is a limit on the length of a global instruction (g or v). See Limits for
this limit.
m and t require destination address
You must follow the m or t subcommands with an address indicating where
you want to move or copy text. You omitted this address.
No remembered filename
You tried to run a subcommand that used a remembered filename (for
example, you used w to write without specifying an output filename).
