NAME
       ad - adaptable text editor and CLI for filtering	and transforming text

SYNOPSIS
       ad [-v] [--version] [-h]	[--help]
	  [-e script] [--expression=script]
	  [-f script-file] [--script-file=script-file]
	  [file...]

DESCRIPTION
       ad  is  a  text editor and command line stream editor.  The text	editor
       interface f ad is inspired by the likes of  vim,	 kakoune  and  plan9's
       acme  and  sam  editors.	ad aims	to provide an "integrating development
       environment" as opposed to an "integrated"  one:	 leveraging  the  sur-
       rounding	 system	for the	majority of functionality outside of core text
       editing actions.

       -e, --expression=script

	      specify an editing script	to be executed

       -f, --script-file=script-file

	      specify a	file containing	an editing script to be	executed

       -h, --help

	      display help text	and exit

       -v, --version

	      output version information and exit

       If no -e, --expression, -f, or --script-file option is given, then  all
       arguments  are  taken to	be input files to be edited interactively.  If
       an editing script is specified then the remaining arguments  are	 taken
       to be files to which the	script should be applied.
