Greetings;
I use ed in that case. It saves me the aggravation of having to
type the entire line completely correct! And in the cases where
I need to issue several commands I put them in a file and
source it. Much quicker in the long run since my error rate
on strange keyboards is about 1 in 10! Slightly better at my desk. ;-)
If you work on wintel systems you need to know edlin. If you work on
*nix systems you need to know ed. That knowledge has saved my bacon
more than once!
Good Luck!
Dennis

But if you don't have a network, then you have a 3215 or a 3270 or the
HMC. In which case, vi won't help you.
In these cases, I use cat. Others use echo. I suppose I could learn
ed, since ed is the standard editor, but I prefer not to.
