ahh, that's a thing, what're te VI keys if your arrows don't work? we've
got these horrid little Sun Workstation 1+ efforts with no cursor pad and
Vi is a right mess. The Sun Workstation 20 or whatever they are are OK,
proper keyboard (what's 'compose' for? and all those keys like 'help' that
go down the left side? i pushed them all and my xterm locked up) they've
got 21" (that's INCH incase i used the wrong thing) monitors too (so why
is X only in 800X600?)

is there a way of making VI (this is 'real' vi, not vim or elvis etc) use the
arrows properly? i.e like on the PC? whenever i press one in insert mode (this
is on a Sun BTW) it does an Esc first which takes it out of insert mode. On
the PC i can just press them and stay in insert mode.
