Oh boy. What will they do next. I wondered why my .vimrc from my old machine wouldn't work with the new lindows box. man vi showed the answer. They were using elvis as a replacement for vi. I downloaded vim with synaptic (this debian stuff seems awfully convenient) and now all is fine.
<rant>It sure is great having all these choices in linux. Makes you wonder why linux hasn't taken over the desktop yet. Seriously, if a vi like editor is good, why really do we need several clones, which really do the same thing. You would think that authors would just keep working to make one vi clone the standard and highly convenient to use so as to attract more users. In actuality, all they are doing is solving the same problem over and over. </rant> Joel _______________________________________________ Linux-users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] Unsubscribe/Suspend/Etc -> http://www.linux-sxs.org/mailman/listinfo/linux-users
