Hi,
I get my hands on a minimal SLES 15 for the first time. I try to edit a
file:
# *vi foo*
-bash: vi: command not found
# *vim foo*
-bash: vim: command not found
HUH? A UNIX with no vi? NEVER seen that before.
So I install it:
# *zypper install -y vim*
...
Now I need to check a flag:
#* man vim *
-bash: man: command not found
So I try to install man:
# *zypper install -y man*
...
No provider of 'man' found.
HUH? A UNIX with no man pages at all? NEVER seen that before either.
Hopefully there's another way to install man.
So I try to get help another way:
# *info vim*
info: No menu item 'vim' in node '(dir)Top'
# *help vim*
-bash: help: no help topics match `vim'. Try `help help' or `man -k vim'
or `info vim'.
No 'info', no 'help' (which suggests to use man or info - hehe)
Am I just spoiled with the backward compatibility baked into the mainframe?
