Wrong. I started developing under Unix for the last 1 year and simultaneously been
working on Linux at home. This is where I got first test of VI editor. Now my situation
is such that if I don't find VI to edit any file, it looks as if I am missing
something.
I don't enjoy typing any program under any editor except VI.
Urmil, Zamana badal gaya hai lekin Basics nahin badale. VI is VI.
