How to set editor for Unix text-form Mma?

I am running Mathematica on a NeXT and enjoy the ease of using a notebook
and the excellent graphics available on the NeXT.  But I also connect to
this one person NeXT via modem from home (using a Commodore 64!!)  I have
discovered that I can use Mma in terminal mode (executing "math").  The
default text editor that Mma brings up is the Unix vi editor.  Is there
anyway to change that to "ed" so that I can use it as a line editor?

Thanks for any suggestions.
