vi can also do color-coding, if you turn it on:

[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~> cat .vimrc
" We use a vim
set nocompatible
"
" Colo(u)red or not colo(u)red
" If you want color you should set this to true
"
let color = "true"
"
if has("syntax")
    if color == "true"
        " This will switch colors ON
        so ${VIMRUNTIME}/syntax/syntax.vim
    else
        " this switches colors OFF
        syntax off
        set t_Co=0
    endif
endif
" ~/.vimrc ends here

YMMV.
