In any case, how do I change the > default vi on this machine? The "standard" vi in *BSD is nvi, which has been available for just about any/every *nix variant for forever.

Install any of the other ones in its place if you want something different. -- Marc Wilson mwilson@moonkingdom.net mwilson@cts.com
