http://www.eng.hawaii.edu/Tutor/vi.html This should help you with vi. Try this. :set backspace="" -> should disable backspace :set backspace=2 -> should enable backspace I don't know whether this works with "vi", since I am a "vim" user, but give it a try. -- With Regards Abhishek Amberkar Learn to appreciate the beauty within...
