RE: [Fwd: Virus Alert]
On a similar note, if you have the modelines option set for vi (in
EXINIT or .exrc), the first and last 5 lines of the file can be executed
as vi or ex commands. Try the following for some fun:
echo "vi: :!ls -lR ~ :" >tmp.file
EXINIT="set ml" vi tmp.file
and wistfully watch all those files fly by. See ex(1) for details.
