Hello list,
I did a fresh OmniOS 151014 install, during setup I set Timezone to my time
zone (which is Europe/Rome because the server is going to be used in
Italy) and physical Keyboard layout to Italian (I selected Keyboard Layout
as 21 Italian when the default one is 47 US-English) as per

Hi Davide!
Now I've a question which is mostly related to the vi usage and was
valid with every OmniOS versions I tested so far: I never been able
to use vi editor in OmniOS as I do (entering editing mode, writing
characters, deleting ones, etc.) in Linux because it seems it
doesn't
I will try to set locale so it will report:
LANG=
LC_CTYPE=
LC_NUMERIC=
LC_TIME=
LC_COLLATE=
LC_MONETARY=
LC_MESSAGES=
LC_ALL=
even if it will be difficult with my crazy vi editor...and tell you back.
Thanks, Davide.

Hi Volker,
I reset the locale via /etc/default/init so the situation is now the
initial one with locale that shows:

LC_MONETARY=C

There isn't any difference when I press Esc then a (so no Esc and a

Pressing the arrow keys will only do what you expect in command mode.
Unless you disable compatibility mode, in which case you can happily
navigate with the arrow keys while in edit mode, presumably just as you are
used to doing under
Hi Paul
~/.vimrc does the trick!
Now It behaves like in Linux and Esc then a starts the INSERT mode (at
vi's bottom appears the -- INSERT --) and I can move with arrows keys and
use Del/Canc as I'm used to.
Thanks!
