Thanks for the quick reply. If you can pass the word up the line that a few
paying customers expect 'vi' to be part of minimal, that would be great.

Let me ask this - do you have a doc that states how to make a fair
Flint,
Yeah, I know 'which' and 'find'. vim was not installed, but now it is.
Yes this was on SLES15S0 on Dave's system. Scary part is there are no man

Note you are presumed to be root...
