Would it be possible to get VIM (an improved vi editor) into Opensolaris? VIM
has been the default on most linux distributions for quite a long time and it
has some advantages over the vi found by default on Solaris:
Multiple levels of undo
Remember and return to current line when entering a file multiple times.
I'm sure there are others, those are two of my favorites and I have seen this
as a complaint when devlopers try to work with Solaris.
For clarification, are you suggesting having it as available as
/usr/gnu/vi, or adding it as a package to the Express cds and install
it as /usr/bin/vim (or similar)? Personally I like that a build of
gvim comes with Sun Studio, and generally that alone is sufficient for
my coding needs.
