Thanks for the speedy response. I am new to vi, but thought it was a skill I should have.
Your comment puzzles me though 'If your version of vi is "vim" as it should be'. Why should it be? I am in fact using nvi, for no other reason than it is the default clone that Debian installs. I want to be able to sit at any linux/unix terminal and at least be guaranteed to be able to use an editor. Why Vim? Why does Debian default to Nvi? What is the "realistic"lowest common denominator on machines?
