I've never had to dink with the setup of vi but my one 6.1 host has this annoying problem: When autoindent is set and I try to back up (e.g., to unindent the closing brace of a loop), it just makes an error beep; it won't backup over the tab. The help file appears to say that this is the correct behavior but I cannot image why and it worked differently in previous Red Hat versions. I searched deja and Control-D is not what I'm looking for. Hmm, as I type this, I'm wondering if it's the terminal setup rather than vi... this happens when I telnet in and also on the console using terminal types vt100 and linux. Anyway, if anyone can see what's wrong or has solved the same problem, I'd appreciate a note. I'd like to get back to the 6.0/5.x way. Thanks! -Alan --- Alan D.
