Was playing with Bastille firewall config and screwed the system up and 
X wouldn't start. Luckily I saved a backup copy in the same folder. That 
is when I noticed some of the limitation.

Just wondering if this is normal.

1) If use the 'less' command piped with a command you have to hit: Shift 
zz   in order to exit. Had to write that one down.

2) If you want to rename something you have to give the exact directory 
where 'rename' is. I had to /mnt/usr/bin/rename  to use the command.

3) vim doesn't work. Only vi works. And you have to /mnt/bin/vi to get 
that to work.

I can never get that rename command to work anyway, need to look up the 
syntax better right after this. So I deleted the firewall script and 
rebooted and then changed the name back.

So does every command have to have the exact directory it is in to work.
IF so, then that is a wish list of possible please to change that.

Need to use the 'less' command a lot to see everything. If having to use
Shift zz to it to exit, then could we please make it work with 'Ctrl z' 
and 'Ctrl c' also.

Hard remembering all the commands, then if have to use the rescue cd 
having to use different keys and command names (ie /mnt/bin/vi)

Please, pretty please.
